The descendants must prepare offerings at this time to worship and pray to the ancestors. Because of this, the Ghost Festival can be said to be the festival with the heaviest yin energy in the year. The heavy yin energy will attract many things, so there are many scary stories about the Ghost Festival from ancient times to the present. This is also the reason why people avoid going out on this day. Therefore, during the Ghost Festival, it is best not to go out at night, especially not to be alone outside at night, and certainly not to go to those remote and cold places. If you want to go out, it is best to go out during the day, but be back indoors before seven or eight in the evening. What should you pay attention to when going out on the night of the Ghost Festival?1. Do not take photosWhen going out at night on the Ghost Festival, be sure not to take photos outside, especially in dark environments, as it is easy to capture bad things and damage your own fortune. 2. Don’t say the word “ghost” When you are outside on the night of the Ghost Festival, don't mention the word "ghost" or words with similar pronunciations. The old-fashioned saying "what you say is what you get" is exactly this kind of situation. 3. Don’t whistle When you are outside on the night of the Ghost Festival, don't whistle while walking, especially in places with few people, as they may think you are calling them and follow you. 4. It is not advisable to bring a bell Just like whistling, don’t bring items like bells that make tinkling sounds when you go out on the night of the Ghost Festival, because these sounds have the effect of summoning spirits. It’s okay to bring items that have been blessed. 5. Avoid being near water When you are outside on the night of the Ghost Festival, it is best not to go near places with lots of water, such as rivers or ponds, and do not store water at home. Because water is yin, it is more likely to gather bad things. 6. Don’t go out alone On the night of the Ghost Festival, if you are going out at night, it is best not to go out alone, because it is easier to panic when you encounter something alone, which is a great opportunity for them. 7. Don’t pick up random things If you go out on the night of the Ghost Festival and see anything on the ground, whether it is food or money, you must not pick it up. Because these may be offerings to them by someone, picking them up may easily anger them and they will retaliate against you. 8. Don’t call names or pat shoulders If you are outside on the night of the Ghost Festival and hear someone calling you from behind, do not look back. Instead, turn your whole body backwards. If you feel something is wrong, run forward immediately. In addition, everyone has three balls of fire on their shoulders, one on each shoulder and one on the head. If the fire is extinguished, it is easy to be harmed by them. Turning back and patting shoulders may extinguish the fire, so you cannot call other people's names or pat other people's shoulders at will. Do you want to know your own Bazi?
