The most complete and detailed prayer for the 15th day of the 2nd lunar month of the year of the Dragon

According to folk beliefs, the full moon day, also known as the Vong day, is the time when the moon and the sun reach their farthest poles, creating symmetry. Therefore, this is the time when the moon and the sun can see each other, illuminating the soul and helping those souls become purer.

What does the full moon offering tray for the second lunar month include?

To prepare for the full moon day, your family will need offerings such as incense, flowers, betel, wine, water and fruit. These are important items in the ceremony, however, the quantity and type of offerings can vary depending on the specific case. A simple altar may only need a few candies, a glass of water and incense sticks for the ancestors.
