Origin and Customs of Southern Minor New Year

Southern Minor New Year, also known as Kitchen God Festival or Stove King Festival, usually falls on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month. This day is when folk worship the Kitchen God, who is believed to ascend to heaven to report to the Jade Emperor about human good and evil deeds over the past year. Every household cleans their homes, washes utensils, and prepares offerings like sugar melons and New Year cakes for the Kitchen God, hoping he will “report good things to heaven and ensure peace on earth.” At the same time, this is also considered the “opening act” before the Spring Festival, as people begin to purchase New Year goods and prepare to welcome the upcoming Spring Festival.

Differences Between Southern Minor New Year and Northern Minor New Year

China is vast, and there are differences in many traditional festival customs between the north and south, with Minor New Year being one of them. The “Southern Minor New Year” that this tool focuses on is set on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, primarily popular in southern regions of China such as Hunan, Jiangxi, Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi. In contrast, “Northern Minor New Year” is on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, mainly popular in northern regions. Despite the different dates, both Southern and Northern Minor New Year carry the beautiful meaning of bidding farewell to the old and ushering in the new, offering sacrifices to the Kitchen God for blessings, and are important preparatory stages before the Spring Festival.
