Following the idiom that goes “A year’s planning lies in Spring”, Li Chun has always been a major and an important traditional celebration. Many will organize lively and vibrant activities or festivals to welcome Li Chun.
Have you wondered what sort of activities people in our home country do during Li Chun to pray for blessing and luck? Let us walk you through it!
(1) You Chun (Spring Outing)
You Chun is a day where the public dresses up and begins their outing.
The participants standing at the front of the You Chun parade will dress up to look like roosters, while the ones standing at the back of the parade will carry a massive Spring Bull figure.
A portion of people will dress up either as a young shepherd, a big-headed doll delivering peaches, or a swallow.
A You Chun (Spring outing) signifies the commencement of sight-seeing during Spring. Until Dragon Boat festival arrives, any day is an opportune time to do a Spring tour.
A day of You Chun is called Tan Chun (Spring outing) during Li Chun.
(2) Exchange Gifts and Greetings (The Giving and Welcoming of Spring)
The act of exchanging gifts and visiting one another creates a harmonious and delightful ambiance.
When you are giving gifts to a person, it is called Song Chun (to “send” Spring to). On the other hand, when you are visiting, it is called Bai Chun (the worshipping of Spring).
- Spring Bull: Folk artists create small bull figurines from clay, called “Spring Bull”.
- Picture of a Spring Bull: Hang a picture of a Spring Bull drawn on a yellow paper on the wall. The color yellow signifies land, and the Spring Bull signifies cultivation.
- Chun Wa: A doll made out of silk named “Chun Wa” (Spring doll) is adorned on children.
(3) Decorate with Yi Chun Calligraphy or Painting
Each household should decorate their houses with Yi Chun painting or calligraphy and auspicious greetings.
Your greetings [expression related to Yi Chun] and paintings [drawings related to Yi Chun] can contain subjects such as [Welcoming the Spring Season], [The Celebration of Spring], [The Vibrance of Spring], and [the Blossoming of Spring Flowers].
(4) Build a Bird’s Nest
Not only are swallows the Li Chun news bearers and messengers, but they are also symbolling of happiness and auspiciousness. That is why many people will build a bird’s nest either in the center of their living room or under the eaves. As long as you can place a small padding on the purlin of your living room or on the walls of the eaves with a note that writes Chun Ying Lai Chao (the Arrival of Spring Swallows), it will naturally attract swallows to build their nests at your spot.
