Where did this ceremony take place:
In English
[EN] If there is a day where all subtle energies are said to be very fluctuative, Tumpek Wayang is that day. For the Balinese, Tumpek Wayang is the most sacred of all Tumpeks in a six-month period of Pawukon calendar system (there are six Tumpek days, by the way). On this very day, the Balinese offer special prayers and offerings in temples. Special protective mantras are chanted, and people put thorny pandanus leaves marked with lime paste on shrines, house corners, and thresholds. If a baby is born on Wayang week (the Wuku week when this day falls), a special ritual must be conducted to protect the baby from negative energies. The ritual is called Nyapuh Leger, for it involves a special sacred puppet show called Sapuh Leger. Then, holy water is taken by washing the puppet’s base handle. Some people who are quite sensitive sometimes have bad omens during the week and avoid long travel for any purposes during the week. To counteract this, they sometimes chant protective mantras and put sacred items on their bodies.

In Indonesian
[ID] Apabila ada hari di mana semua energi halus menjadi sangat fluktuatif, maka Tumpek Wayang adalah hari itu. Menurut orang Bali, Tumpek Wayang adalah hari yang paling sakral di antara semua Tumpek yang ada selama enam bulan putaran Wuku (jadi, ada enam Tumpek). Di hari Tumpek Wayang, orang Bali mempersembahkan mantra-mantra khusus dan persembahan di pura atau merajan. Mantra-mantra perlindungan diucapkan, dan orang-orang meletakkan daun pandan berduri yang ditandai dengan pasta kapur sirih di pelinggih, sudut-sudut rumah, dan di depan rumah. Apabila ada anak lahir di wuku Wayang, ada upacara khusus yang harus dilakukan agar dia selamat dari energi yang buruk. Upacara ini disebut Nyapuh Leger, karena dalam upacara ini digelar pertunjukan wayang sakral yang disebut Sapuh Leger. Kemudian, tangkai wayang itu dubasuh dan airnya dipakai tirta. Beberapa orang yang sensitif bisa merasakan pertanda yang tidak baik selama minggu Wuku Wayang. Itulah sebabnya mereka menghindari bepergian jauh selama minggu itu demi tujuan apa pun. Agar tidak sial, mereka kadang mengucapkan doa-doa perlindungan dan memakai benda-benda suci di badan.
