During the Chinese New Year, is there anything I need to pay attention to when pasting couplets?

As we all know, the Chinese nation is a nation with a broad and profound culture, which has accumulated profound cultural accumulation over the past 5,000 years, including traditional festivals, traditional customs, traditional cultural forms, and so on. Among them, the Spring Festival is an important symbol of our national culture, and the Spring Festival is also very grand, and thousands of households attach great importance to it. On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, every household will set off fireworks, set off firecrackers, eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, distribute pressure money, paste Spring Festival and other special activities with a New Year's flavor.

Among them, there are a lot of things to pay attention to the Spring Festival couplets, so let's list three important precautions for sticking the Spring Festival couplets today: First, distinguish the upper and lower couplets. Our Spring Festival couplets are composed of upper and lower couplets, horizontal batches, there are many people who can't tell how the upper and lower couplets are pasted, we are divided into flat and flat voices in tone and phonetics, in addition, the Spring Festival couplets are particularly particular about rhyme, generally the pronunciation of the last word of the upper couplet is flat (that is, one and two tones), and the last word of the lower couplet is the sound of the voice (that is, three tones, four tones); <

Second, the reading of horizontal batches. Many people don't know how to read the horizontal batch from left to right or from right to left, the correct reading of the Spring Festival couplets is from left to right, friends must remember to read from left to right, don't make jokes in front of others, and be sure to distinguish the priority when posting; 3. Distinguish the left and right sides of the upper and lower joints. Not only the above two issues need to be paid attention to, but there are also many people who do not know whether the upper link should be attached to the left or right side of the door frame.

The correct way to paste is that the upper link should be pasted on the left side of the door frame, the lower link should be pasted on the right side of the door frame, and the left side should be the left side corresponding to the door, and the right side should be the right side corresponding to the door. The above are the three principles that should be paid attention to when pasting couplets, friends must pay attention to the above three principles when pasting Spring Festival couplets during the Spring Festival, to avoid other people's jokes!

The last word of the upper link is to end with three tones and four tones, and the lower link is to end with one or two tones, the upper link is on the right and the lower link is on the left. l

Pay attention to the time first, we are in the 29th of the year when the Spring Festival couplets are pasted, the order should be pasted correctly, not reversed.

When pasting couplets, you should stick them firmly, and don't just paste them as soon as the wind blows the couplets, which is very taboo.

According to the different customs of different places, the time of the New Year's couplet is also slightly different. As the saying goes: "Twenty-eight, applique flowers", and there are also some local folk songs that have "twenty-nine, paste down unitary (that is, paste the Spring Festival couplet)", so the couplets are generally in the wax moon.

Two. Ten. Eight, twenty-nine stickers. There is also a saying that the Spring Festival was posted on the morning of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve. Generally speaking, the Spring Festival Coupling is still between 6 a.m. and 12 noon on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the old Spring Festival Lian should be torn off before pasting, and the New Year Lian should not be directly pasted on it, which is unlucky.

According to the different customs of various regions in our country, the time of posting couplets for the New Year is also slightly different. Spring couplets are generally in the wax moon.

Two. Ten. Eight, twenty-nine stickers. There are also places that are posted on the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve. If the horizontal couplet is written from right to left, the upper link should be pasted on the right, and the upper couplet should be pasted on the left.

In addition, in addition to the requirements of the Spring Festival couplet, it should generally be flat on the top and bottom, that is, the tone of the ending word of the upper couplet should fall on the sound and go to the sound, and the tone of the ending word of the lower couplet should fall on the flat sound.

2. Every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, between 6 a.m. and 12 noon, tear up the old Spring Festival and throw it away, and good things happen this year.

The correct way to paste the couplets

1. Distinguish the upper and lower links: distinguish from the flat voice, the last word of the upper link is the sound of the sound (three tones and four tones), and the last word of the lower link is the sound of the flat sound (one and two tones), such as "luck" for the sound of the voice, and "wealth" for the sound of the voice. From the artistic conception of the distinction, the artistic conception of the lower link is generally more profound and far-reaching than the artistic conception of the upper link, such as "the scene rises to the level of Taiyun, and the golden pig is happy to obtain abundant wealth".

2. Distinguish the left and right: the upper link must be hung on the right, and the lower link must be hung on the left (facing the couplet left and right), and the upper and lower links cannot be reversed. Therefore, the upper link should be affixed to the right side of the door, that is, the right hand side when entering the door, and the lower link should be affixed to the left side of the door.

Many people are used to sticking left to right first, which is not right.

Sticking the Spring Festival couplets, first, retains the significance of suppressing evil and avoiding disasters; the second is to express their good wishes; The third is the red pair, which sets off the festive atmosphere.

Couplets, also known as couplets, pairs, couplets and so on. The couplet is about 1,000 years ago in the Later Shu period, when it was called the peach symbol. The peach talisman is made of peach wood with the names of the legendary god "Shendi" and "Yulei" written on them, which are used to drive away ghosts and suppress evil spirits.

Later, people began to replace the name of the god of demon spawning on the mahogany board in the couplet.

Spring couplets originated in the Song Dynasty and became popular in the Ming Dynasty. According to historical records, Zhu Yuanzhang, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, loved couplets. One year on Chinese New Year's Eve, he sent a decree that "the family of the public secretary must add a pair of Spring Festival couplets to the door."

On the first day of the first lunar month, Taizu went out on patrol, and was very happy to see the Spring Festival couplets that complemented each other, and when he walked to a house, he saw that there was no Spring Festival couplets on the door, and asked why. It turned out that the owner was a butcher, and he was worried that he couldn't find anyone to write Spring Festival couplets, so Zhu Yuanzhang immediately wrote a pair of Spring Festival couplets for him. It can be seen that Zhu Yuanzhang's vigorous advocacy of Spring Festival couplets has promoted the general popularity of Spring Festival couplets.

1. Don't paste the wrong left and right links:

1) First of all, it is necessary to distinguish the upper and lower heads of the door, when facing the door, the right-hand direction is the upper head, the left-hand direction is the lower head, and the upper link is pasted on the upper head, and the lower joint is pasted on the lower head.

2) Secondly, distinguish the upper and lower couplets of the Spring Festival, according to the tone of the flat couplet, the last word of the upper couplet is the sound of the voice, the last word of the lower couplet should be the flat sound, according to the causal relationship, "cause" is the upper link, "fruit" is the lower link, according to the time order, the time is in front of the upper link, and the time is in the back for the lower link.

2. The time to paste the Spring Festival couplets.

1) I don't know if you have heard of "twenty-four, write big characters", which is a folk proverb that has been circulated for a hundred years, which means that after the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, you can write Spring Festival couplets, but what is the time to paste the Spring Festival couplets is also particular. In fact, the Spring Festival is to choose a good time, and the period from the afternoon to the evening of Chinese New Year's Eve is the best. On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the ancients had a solemn sacrifice ceremony, in fact, sticking the Spring Festival is also one of the procedures.

2) Because after Chinese New Year's Eve, Vientiane is renewed, so it is best to paste the Spring Festival on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve. It is best to tear the old Spring Festival Lian between 6 am and 12 noon on Chinese New Year's Eve, indicating that the old cloth is new and bad luck is broken, or according to local customs, it is best to be in the morning (7-9 am) when the yang is at its fullest.

3. Don't paste the Spring Festival couplets upside down: the word blessing can't be upside down, otherwise the blessing will be poured out;

4. The singular number is auspicious.

1) singular number for the yang number, choose the Spring Festival couplets, the number of words to be singular, do not mess with the forest single paste spring words, you can paste blessings, fortune into treasure, etc., only Yihong Yuan will be at the door to paste the word spring, the Spring Festival couplets are connected to the sky when the day is smooth, condensed with the feng shui energy of the whole year, how to choose the Wangyun Spring Festival couplets is very important, the conventional Spring Festival couplets are mostly poems and songs, mainly to draw a festive erection, only pay attention to the meaning of the word auspicious, no feng shui layout.

Sticking couplets is to express the meaning of welcoming the New Year, cheerful and festive, auspicious and so on.

If the family has just finished a funeral, the whole family is immersed in grief. During the Spring Festival, if the family sticks Spring Festival couplets as usual, the neighbors will say: "Their family doesn't know anything." When the old Qi people in the family died, they did not grieve, but still celebrated the festival happily."

This is the simplest 'talk'. There are many, many more words, all of which are unfavorable to the old man who has passed away; Seemingly simple couplets can attract a lot of uncomfortable words. Why is that?

Sticking couplets, it is a peaceful atmosphere. Seemingly simple couplets, surrounded by couplets are symbols of joy and auspiciousness; When there are people who have handled the funeral within the year, they are dealing with all the things at home according to the folk customs of everyone's 'convention'.

This is: try to be low-key and unassuming; Don't go to your friends' houses to prevent others from showing discomfort or even 'hate,' staying in your own home, and going to and from work as you should; The New Year is not decorated with lights, no couplets, kept a low profile, and reserved a solemn atmosphere for the parents of the deceased. (Legend has it that during the Spring Festival, the deceased will come to the house to look around the house to see the children of the world, and if the children are happy and happy, there is no sense of grief and nostalgia, and the deceased will be very disappointed.)

Therefore, during the Spring Festival, many families will put the deceased old people's **, burn pillar incense, put on some good things that the old people like to eat during their lifetime, and pay tribute to show their remembrance and nostalgia for their ancestors.

Although there are some superstitious colors here, it has been slowly passed down from everyone over the years, so it is not bad to pay attention to it.
