Yi people in Juntun Town, Eshan Yi Autonomous County, Yunnan Province have a festival on February 7th of the lunar calendar, which is called "February 7th" for short. This festival began in the late Ming Dynasty. Every year before the festival, people forge three sacred chairs to prepare for offering sacrifices to the gods. Two of them have sedan chairs, one is a chair, which carries the Virgin and the God of the Earth, and the seat carries the God of Wealth.
In fact, the activity of receiving gods began on the sixth day of February and didn't end until God returned to Notre Dame on the fifteenth day. Every year on the night of the sixth day of the second lunar month, three figurines are invited to the temple of Notre Dame by a gentleman and enshrined on the table in the main hall, which is called "warm life". On the morning of the seventh day, all the children born in Juntun Town should put on clean holiday costumes, led by their parents, carrying "cangue" made of paper and bamboo on their shoulders, hanging two small flags, holding a pair of male hens and leading the baby under the bodhisattva.
When the baby is born, take down the small flag on the "cangue" for the child to hold, then burn the "cangue", and the parents take the child and the chicken home. When I get home, I'm going to kill the chicken and cook it, and then I'm going to make a wish in the hall of Notre Dame with a plate. After people fulfill their wishes, they begin to pick up the gods. Juntun Town is divided into upper section, middle section, lower section and street section. At the time of receiving god, these four plates took turns to take the lead. The leader wants to kill pigs and sheep, prepare banquets, and make a list of "Titian Old People".
When it's time to pick up the gods, the "old man Titian" walking in front is holding two incense sticks, followed by a sedan chair and various lanterns singing while walking. Sedan chair people must be men who got married that year, and they should all wear dresses and jackets neatly. If the number is not enough, people who got married last year can be used instead.
After receiving God, all the participants sat down to eat. According to the rules, all men over the age of 50 are eligible to "eat a delicious meal" on this day (that is, attend a banquet). At the same time, this day is also a good opportunity for the people of Juntun Town to speak to each other. Many local young men and women socialize on such occasions, find the right person, and then solve lifelong events.
