Chung Yeung Day


On this day, an annual good luck festival called Chung Yeung Day (The Festival of High Places) is celebrated in China. Traditionally good omen kites are flown to carry away evil spirits. The festival also commemorates an ancient Chinese scholar named Huan Ching who, upon heeding a warning of a soothsayer, escaped with his family and friends high into the hills and thereby avoided a mysterious plague of death which swept through the village below, killing every living thing in sight.

Sweet, spicy sandalwood oil lessons inhibitions and frees the imagination.
