THE DAY OF SENDING THE KITCHEN GODS 23rd OF THE LUNAR MONTH OF CHAP
The stove is still warm, the incense is fragrant.
On the 23rd of the lunar month of Chap, like many Vietnamese people, the people of Quang Tri prepare to send the Kitchen Gods back to heaven 🔥
The ceremony to worship the Kitchen Gods holds a very special meaning. It is not only a ritual to send off the Kitchen Gods but also an occasion for each family to reflect on the past year, to cleanse away the unfinished things, and to prepare mentally for the new year with many hopes, praying for a harmonious new year, with a peaceful and joyful home.
In many households, after the worship ceremony is the moment to tidy up the kitchen, clean every little corner, and prepare the house to welcome the new year.
A quiet ritual, yet it signals that Tet is very close now.
