端午节是我国的传统节日之一。过去在农村每逢端午节,几乎家家户户用菖蒲与白艾悬挂门首,以表驱邪之意。菖蒲的剑形叶好似传说中执剑斩妖魔打鬼英雄钟馗的宝剑,于是人们就用菖蒲寄托自己驱除妖邪的愿望。用菖蒲根合雄黄捣碎,掺入酒中饮,称为“蒲节酒”。因此,农历五月又别称“蒲月”。 Dragon Boat Festival is one of our traditional festivals. In the past, during the Dragon Boat Festival in the countryside, almost every household dangled the door with calamus and Bai Ai to exorcise evil spirits. Iris-shaped sword-shaped leaves is like the legendary sword cut demon dungeon hero Zhong Kui sword, so people use calabash pinned their own desire to get rid of evil demon. With Iris root combined realgar smashed, mixed with wine in the drink, known as “Po-ju wine.” Therefore, another name for the lunar month, “May”.
