What should we pay attention to during the Mid-Autumn Festival? Introducing the Mid-Autumn Festival taboos!

No sex during the Mid-Autumn Festival
On the 15th day of August, you should be especially careful when having sex in front of the full moon, and it is especially taboo outdoors or in the wild. This taboo is said to be based on the traditional Chinese concept that men are yang and women are yin, and the first and fifteenth day of each month are the days when the moon is empty. The moon belongs to Yin, which is the so-called Yin deficiency. Having sex at this time is very unlucky for one's qi and energy.
Avoid evil spirits during outdoor activities during Mid-Autumn Festival
It is possible to engage in outdoor activities on the Mid-Autumn Festival, but it should be noted that people engaging in outdoor activities on this day can wear red ropes or red underwear, and it is taboo to do things related to ghosts and gods, because the yin energy is at its strongest on this day.
Men are not allowed to worship the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival
Fu Cha Dunchong of the Qing Dynasty wrote in "Yanjing Sui Shi Ji": On the Mid-Autumn Festival, "most men do not bow to the moon. Therefore, a proverb in the capital says: Men do not worship the moon, and women do not worship the kitchen god." It is commonly believed that the moon belongs to the sun, and the moon goddess Chang'e is a female. Therefore, only women (including girls) can worship the moon.
Mid-Autumn Festival mooncakes must be round
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the whole family should gather together to eat moon cakes, which are also called reunion cakes. Eating them can keep the family together. In order to reunite, the fruit cakes for the moon sacrifice must be round.
