Today, the Fourth day of the Lunar New Year is the day to welcome the kitchen god, the god of fortune and other gods.
The fourth day of the Lunar New Year is when the God of Stove reports back to Heaven. The God of Stove will then returns back to your house later on the same day. Since the Heaven is far away from the Earth, it will take almost a day for The God of Stove to travel down to family’s kitchen. The God of Stove must leave the Heaven in the morning. He should arrive people house in the afternoon. Therefore, the Welcome Ceremony will be in the afternoon.
After the Welcome Ceremony, families will explore firecracker to welcome The God of Stove back into the house.
(this is my kitchen god.)
Families should stay at home to prepare abundant fruits, burn incense and light candles to welcome the gods, asking to be provided with ample food in the new year.
The old saying “three rams bring bliss” is connected with the fourth day, which says that by making a good beginning, a happy end comes.
