First, the reason:
Five blessings is a traditional greeting in China, which means that the whole family can be happy in the new year. Five Blessingg's five words stand for wealth, health, filial piety, peace and happiness.
The number "6" also has a special meaning in China traditional culture, representing auspiciousness, peace, happiness and perfection, so "five blessings" is "6".
Second, Five Blessingg:
Five Blessingg means: The first blessing is "long life", the second is "wealth", the third is "Kangning", the fourth is "goodness", and the fifth is "a good death" in Five Blessingg. Some people call it shou fu kang de shan for short.
"longevity" means immortality and longevity. "Wealth" means wealth and status. Kangning' means good health and peace of mind. Virtue is kindness, generosity and serenity. "A good death" means knowing your death in advance.
Fu, a history of the Chinese nation, is the history of people's diligent pursuit of Fu Lushou and wealth. Five Blessingg stated that,
It was first seen in Shang Shu Hong Fan: "First, longevity, second, wealth, third, corning, fourth, goodness, fifth, ultimate fate." Long life, wealth, health, peace of mind, virtue, and a good death without disaster are China's earliest concrete explanations of "happiness".
