小年到十五 春節(jié)天天有講究

臘月二十四：掃舍去塵

Families undertake thorough house cleaning on the 24th day of the 12th month in the Lunar calendar, sweeping out the old in preparation for the coming year.
農(nóng)歷臘月二十四日，各家各戶會進行大掃除掃舍去塵，預示著除舊迎新。

According to tradition, ghosts and deities must choose either to return to Heaven or to stay on Earth during the last month of the year. It is believed that to ensure the ghosts and deities' timely departure, people must thoroughly clean both their bodies and their dwellings, down to every last drawer and cupboard.
根據(jù)傳統(tǒng)，各路鬼神在農(nóng)歷臘月必須決定自己是返回天庭還是繼續(xù)留在人間。據(jù)說為了確保鬼神及時啟程離開，人們必須徹底地沐浴干凈、清理住處，哪怕是抽屜柜子也不能疏忽。
