9月-播種祭
September- Festival of Plant Seeds
試種mapudahu,前一日地主帶領孩子至耕地舉行試種儀式,取一粒無患子穿插於茅草梗中心後插入地面,即以鋤頭播種一些粟米,口誦念祈文。完成儀式後返家等待夜晚夢占。返家後將鋤頭施以灑酒祭祀,地主帶領大家在屋外聆唱「Psibutbut祈禱小米豐收歌」,再取一些粟粒灑到屋頂上。若占卜吉夢,翌日即進行播種事宜,若占卜兇夢即停止,則另尋它地開墾。播種期間須齋戒七日,於第六日清除爐灰,以避免所播種之粟粒著病枯死,至第七日始行播種。齋戒期間,必須嚴守禁忌Samu,不能洗澡、吃鹽、香蕉、甘藷以及其他甜鹹之食物,以防止小米長不好。
Try to plant mapudahu(millet):
Before the day of cultivation, the landowner leads children to cultivate lands and hold the ceremony. First, pick one Sapindus mukorossi, and put it to the center of twitch grass’s stalk and dig in to the ground. Next, use hoe to plant some millet, and pray at the same time. After the ceremony, they go home and spray alcoholic drink to the hoe as sacrifice.
The landowner leads everyone to sing Psibutbut (an aboriginal people's traditional song to pray to have the harvest), and then spray some millet to the roof. Then, they will wait for the dream divine at night. If the divine is good, they will start the cultivation the next day. If not, they will find another filed to cultivate.
During the cultivation, they will have the seven fast days. At the six day, they have to clean the ashes of stove to prevent the millet die. Also, they have to follow the Samu( the taboo). They can’t have shower, eat salt, banana, sweet potato or any food that have the flavor of sweet and salt, to prevent the millet will grow not so good.
