Approaching the Mid Autumn Festival, what does the saying men don t worship the moon, women don t s

Men do not worship the moon, women do not worship the stove" ** and statement. There are many articles on the internet about this sentence, and all of them make sense. But seeing this idiom, the first impression we get is a feudal superstition.

Why can't humans worship the moon? Why can't a woman be sacrificed on the stove?

In <>Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Liu Guanzhang's three brothers, Taoyuan, and three brothers worship their parents, among which "respecting the sky" also includes the moon. The so-called "women do not sacrifice the stove", the stove is the kitchen, is the place where the kitchen cooks, we all know that since ancient times, the stove is mostly a woman's "workbench", "sacrifice" refers to the god of the stove.

Why can't a woman sacrifice the god of the hearth? Around these folk proverbs, combined with historical materials, we will interpret this idiom again.

The folk saying "men don't worship the moon, women don't worship the stove" should be said separately. Let's take a look at "men don't worship the moon", which literally means, men can't worship the moon. As for the moon, believe in Chang'e.

Lived in the "Moon Palace" for a long time. If people always worship the moon, it will be considered a violation of folk rules. If a man is interested in Chang'e, then it is better not to meet.

In addition to the moon and the legend of Chang'e, there is also a folk view that the moon represents "negative" and that men are yang, and men can worship the sun and other positive things, but cannot worship negative celestial bodies such as the moon.

Women do not sacrifice to the god of the stove" is also the feudal view of the ancient folk, people think that the god of the stove is very handsome, from the perspective of ancient men and women, if a woman sacrifices to the god of the stove, it is easy to become the god of the stove stage, unnecessary things. Of course, the god of the stove is positive, the woman is negative, and the woman is not suitable for sacrifice. On the whole, this sentence is a kind of feudal folk, referring to men and women in life.

The idea of ghosts and gods was very popular in ancient times. But from the point of view of rural customs now, men have long ceased to worship the moon, and women have long ceased to worship the stove. Most of the traditional things make people better, and there are also a lot of positive things.

This is an old custom that has been circulated in many parts of the country, which means that on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, worshiping the moon god is given to the hostess and children of the family, and men are not allowed to participate. When worshipping the god of the hearth, it is done by the male host, and the female hostess is not allowed to participate.

It means that on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the worship of the moon god is carried out by the hostess and children, and men are not allowed to participate. When worshipping the god of the hearth, it is done by the male host, and the female hostess is not allowed to participate. It is not advisable to go out to admire the moon when you are sick, and remember to refer to the moon.

The meaning of this sentence is that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the worship of the moon god on the day is given to the hostess and children of the house, and those who love men cannot participate. When the worship is done, it needs to be done by the male director, and the hostess is not allowed to participate. It should be noted that moon worship is basically done by women.

In layman's terms, it means that men do not worship the moon, and women do not worship the god of the stove or burn incense.

The reason is: men do not worship the moon because in ancient times people believed that the moon lived in Chang'e fairy, and male worship was equivalent to showing favor to beautiful women, and there was a manifestation of ill-intentionedness. After all, there is a saying in ancient times that "men and women do not kiss", and the god of the stove happens to be a handsome and dashing man, and the women worship so that the ancients feel that it is disrespectful to the king of the stove and does not conform to the etiquette.

In fact, it is not surprising that such old sayings appeared in the countryside, and in ancient times there were many unexpected customs that corresponded to them, and now these customs have gradually changed, and this saying is just a concept of the old people in the past. In modern times, this kind of thing rarely happens anymore.

Now that it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is no such statement, more that it is a day of family reunion, and in the evening, family members will do it under the moon to admire the moon together, eat moon cakes, and then chat and talk together. It not only contributes to family harmony, but also allows children who work hard outside the home to grow up to spend time with their parents.

The concept brought about by the old saying will change with social progress, which shows that the benefits of social progress to everyone's life are visible to the naked eye, and it also makes me think about how to improve related issues, and I feel that I can improve it in the following aspects:

1. The integration of science and technology and rural areas

2. Implement the concept of equality between men and women

3. Do not promote the concept of raising children and preventing old age

4. Safeguard the rights and interests of rural women's homesteads

Among them, the integration of science and technology and rural areas is the focus of improvement, which can make backward areas no longer believe in some incorrect old sayings, and can also accept the current county-level ideology and see that science and technology make the world progress. The issue of equality between men and women has also gradually changed with economic progress, and in the process of receiving education, children have received the concept of equal education for all, and the emergence of these new concepts has made more people aware of what is a good understanding.

As society continues to progress, backward regions are also progressing, and no matter how much the old saying goes, it will disappear into history if it doesn't make sense.

It means that men can't worship the moon, and women can't worship the king of the stove, which is also a very feudal tradition, but it has no value and no meaning.

It means that men do not worship the god of the moon, and women do not worship the god of the stove, which is our ancient cultural custom, but it is more feudal and superstitious.

It means that men do not worship the moon, women do not worship the god of the hearth, or women do not burn incense to worship.

This is a saying in ancient times, the moon was called the moon god, the stove in ancient times, they also thought that there was this god, there were some ghosts and gods in ancient times, so there will be this kind of words, we don't have to take it seriously.

This means that men can't bow to the moon, and women can't go to worship the king of the stove. It is understood that men cannot kneel and women cannot go to the table to eat.

It means that boys are not allowed to worship the moon, and girls are not allowed to worship the stove. Because that's not lucky.

Men do not worship the moon and women do not sacrifice to the stove means that men should not worship the god of the moon, and women should avoid the god of the stove.

Men don't worship the moon" means that men don't have the custom of "worshipping the moon". The seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar is said to be the day when the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet in the Milky Way, commonly known as the "Daughter's Festival", also known as the "Begging Festival". On this night, the women will be in the balcony and courtyard, furnishing fruits and cakes, lighting incense and candles, and praying to the moon until late at night.

This is a women's holiday, and macho men should certainly not participate in it.

Women don't sacrifice to the stove" because in some places, women don't sacrifice to the stove, there is such a saying, "The god of the stove, dressed in red clothes, looks like a beautiful woman". It is said that the king of the stove looks like a beautiful woman, which is very charming, and not allowing women to sacrifice to the stove also means to avoid suspicion.

According to legend, there was an ugly woman in the ancient Qi country, named Zhong Lichun, she was born ugly: wide forehead, small eyes, hunchback and thick neck, yellow hair and black skin, always with a trembling appearance is perfect to avoid all the advantages, she from a young age to worship the moon, praying to the gods to give her a beautiful face.

After growing up, Zhong Lichun was talented and began to enter the palace as an official, but because of her ugly appearance, she has not been reused. On the night of August 15 of a certain year, King Qi Xuan met Zhong Lichun who was worshipping the moon in the palace, and found that she was so beautiful in the moonlight, so he decided to make her the queen.

Because people believed that Chang'e lived on the moon at the time of the ancient Wu Dynasty, and Chang sold Zheng E was the embodiment of women, so it was not allowed to worship the moon with men, which meant that it would reduce the status of men, and women did not sacrifice to the stove because the god of the stove was the incarnation of men, so it was not allowed to sacrifice women.

The reason why there is such a custom is because the woman's half-moon is for begging, and the source of laughter and in ancient mythology, there is a Chang and Bi'e on the moon, so men worship the moon, and some customs at that time are not in line with the same reason that women go to worship the Lord of the Stove.

It is because it is not very suitable for Chang'e men to worship on the moon, and the Lord of the Stove is a boy, so it is not suitable for girls to worship.
