Happy Dong Zhi Day to all of you here (恭祝各界。冬至快樂).
Its again the arrival of Dong Zhi Day. As usual, Jave Wu had to follow the Tradition to prepare the Sweet Dumplings aka Tang Yuan (湯圓) for the Honouring of Long Shan Men’s Deities & Ancestors (正一龍山門壇上聖真與歷代祖師).
After rushing back from Office, Jave started to do the cooking and once the cooking was done, Jave had offered 3 Bowls of the Sweet Dumplings to the Deities and the Ancestors.
As advised, in each bowl of the Dumpling, it must contain 9 or 12 quantity of the Tang Yuan (for Leap Lunar Month for the upcoming Years will be 13), 9 to represent Long Term & Prosperity, 12 to represent Smoothness for the next Lunar New Year 一碗湯圓應有九或十二粒。九者長久富貴﹐十二者一年興旺 – 如果來年有閏月則是十三粒).
