Auspicious Dates for Sweeping

To usher in an auspicious year in 2021, it is a tradition to perform a thorough cleaning by sweeping away the dust. It represents a desire to put away old things, bid farewell to the old year, wash away the misfortunes and welcome in the New Year.

After performing a thorough cleaning, people will post spring couplets on doors and windows. The most common couplet is the single Chinese character Fu (luck) posted upside down as “upside down Fu” is portrayed as “Luck arrived”. People believe that by doing this, luck will soon arrive at their home.

Date of Sending Off Kitchen God

The Kitchen God, or Stove God, is the most important of all Vietnamese domestic deities that protect the family. It is a tradition to make an offering to him on the day he returns to Heaven to give his New Year’s report to the Jade Emperor.

Usually in offerings to the Kitchen God, people traditionally “bribe” him with sweet treats so that his lips are stuck together.  Therefore, he won’t say anything bad about their families.

In the Northern part of Vietnam, some Vietnamese will release carps to the river, which they believed is a form of transportation used by the Kitchen God to Heaven. The reason for this is because carps will transform into dragons and they will fly off to the sky.
