The celebration of «Tian-kuan jie» takes place on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, which is a numerologically significant day.
The holiday is dedicated to the God of Heaven. This is — Thanksgiving and Prayer Day. All family members gather together for a special ritual dinner. They cut livestock and prepare special pampushki. They burn paper and incense.
This holiday is also called Worship of the Patron of Worms and Insects.
They ask the gods not to create pests. In the old days, and perhaps even today, villages wash, wash, dry clothes and books, bathe pets, dry and fumigate things in order to expel insects.
