The New Year does not talk about the medium, and does not move the needle.

Avoid haircuts.

There is a folk saying that if you don't cut your hair in the first month, you will die if you cut your hair, which means that you can't cut your hair in the first month, and if you cut your hair, it may have an adverse effect on your uncle, which is very bad. The second point is that happy events should not be held in the first lunar month. Doing a happy event in the first month is the head of the Yue Tai Sui, which may affect the relationship status after marriage, and it is not conducive to children and grandchildren.

The third point is that the New Year should not quarrel. If you have a quarrel with someone else in the first month, it can lead to frequent disasters and bad luck in the year.

1. Do not break the dishes and chopsticks.

In the New Year, it is necessary to pay attention to avoid breaking the dishes and chopsticks, and breaking things at this time cannot be regarded as "broken" peace. Because in the New Year, it is auspicious to be reunited, and once something is broken, it symbolizes the incompleteness of the family. If it is accidentally broken, it is necessary to recite auspicious words such as "open your mouth, great wealth" in time.

2. Don't beat or scold children.

Tradition holds that if a child is scolded on the first day of junior high school, he will be scolded for a whole year. In particular, it is required to say good things on the first day of the new year, and can not say foul words, in some areas, if the child slips away, the adult will immediately follow and say: "Children's words, no taboos".

3. The blessing cannot be posted on the door.

If you paste more than one word "Fu", you should also paste the "door Fu" first, then the "Fu" of the hall, and finally the "Fu" of the hall. The order must not be reversed. The word "Fu" is not wrong to be pasted, but it should be noted that it is not possible to paste anywhere, especially not on the door.

4. Cleaning. The cleaning will generally be done before the New Year, and some places will be done on the 24th day of the lunar month, and there is a saying that "the 24th, the day of sweeping the dust". In fact, there is no limit to the time of cleaning, but the first day of the Lunar New Year is not allowed, otherwise it will be considered that the luck and wealth of the family will be swept out, which is very unlucky.

If you have to clean, you have to sweep it from the outside to the inside, which means that blessings, wealth, luck and luck can enter the house, in short, everything is towards the "auspicious".

5. Don't cut your hair.

Because there is a folk saying that cutting hair in the first month is not good for uncles, so the older generation is not allowed to cut hair, which makes many fashionable young people very distressed now, and they generally go to get a haircut secretly, and those who dare not cut their hair can only get a haircut in Layue, so Layue is usually the most profitable month for barbershops. But why is there such a custom, it is said that in the Qing Dynasty, the ruler had a rule of forcibly cutting hair, and those who did not want to cut their hair said that cutting their hair in the first month would kill their uncle to avoid it, so gradually there was this custom.

Generally there are taboos in the first month;

You can't kill in the first month, and it is forbidden to take medicine on the first day of the new year. There is such a saying"On the first day of junior high school, I took medicine for a whole year, and it was not good to cure hunger and Hu for any disease", so no matter how serious the patient is, he will not take medicine on the first day of junior high school.

And the first day of junior high school is not to use knives and scissors, and rotten is only to block the common saying; "At the beginning of the year, the knife and scissors were moved, and the right and wrong of the tongue were inevitable"。

On the first day of the new year, you can't borrow money from others, and it's not suitable to lend money to others. This also means that there will be problems in the economy.

At the same time, in the New Year, it is generally not suitable for moving or getting a haircut [haircuts, which are a mountain key, can only be considered after the 7th day of the first month, and it is still customary not to get a haircut in the New Year].

(The first day of the first lunar month to the eighth day of the first month): Chinese New Year's Eve is to observe the New Year, so avoid going to bed early, say auspicious words, and try not to swear. Do not break utensils, such as bowls. You can't leave wet clothes for the New Year, that's probably it.

Hair cannot be cut.

In the conversation, it is nothing more than a cliché that everyone is talking about, and even I don't understand how many pros and cons are in this unchanging cliché. - Gorky, "Confession".

It's almost the New Year, and I heard the elders say that the wax moon is taboo and the first month is taboo, so do you know what this is talking about? Does your family have such taboos?
