The Double Ninth Festival
电气94 耿维帅
The Double Ninth Festival (Chóngyángjié), observed on the ninth day of the ninth month in the Chinese calendar, is a traditional Chinese festival, mentioned in writing since before the East Han period (thus, before AD 25)

The Origins of The Double Ninth Festival
The festival began as early as the Warring States Period (475 - 221 BC).

The ninth day of the ninth month is a double yang day, hence the name "Chong Yang Festival".

The Double Ninth Festival, therefore, also became an occasion to visit the graves of dead family members. Clothes made of paper would then be burnt as offerings.
