Speaking of taboos, I believe everyone is familiar with them. The Ghost Festival is one of the ghost festivals. So, let’s take a look at the 20 taboos of the Ghost Festival! Which of the three ghost festivals is the most powerful? The seventh month of the lunar calendar is the hottest time of summer in China and is also called Mengqiu, Lanyue, etc. If you want to know more about the seventh month of the lunar calendar, please follow Mr. Shui Mo’s website!Introducing 20 taboos of the Ghost Festival!1. Don’t place your slippers neatly beside the bed. If slippers are placed neatly beside the bed, it will attract the curiosity of friends in the spirit world and cause them to make a fuss in bed.2. You cannot steal the offerings, because these are foods for ghosts. If you use them without their consent, you will only bring yourself bad luck that is difficult to resolve. 3. When wandering at night, never call out your name. Try to use code names to avoid the ghosts remembering your name. 4. The money on the roadside is used to bribe the Ox-Head and Horse-Face. If you infringe on their things, you will easily be taught a lesson by them. 5. There are three fires on a person's body, one on the top of the head and one on each shoulder. As long as one of them is extinguished, it is easy to be possessed by ghosts. 6. Do not hang wind chimes at the head of the bed, because wind chimes can easily attract ghosts, and sleeping is the time when you are most likely to be "invaded". 7. Do not say the word "ghost". On the day of the Zhongyuan Festival, ghosts almost come out in droves and are everywhere. Especially the scene of the festival will be filled with ghosts. 8. People believe that women are unclean during their menstrual period, so they should not watch events such as construction or sacrifices, so as not to offend the gods, cause misfortune, or prevent the construction from proceeding smoothly. 9. Avoid catching dragonflies and katydids. People believe that these two insects are the incarnation of ghosts. If you catch them indiscriminately, be careful not to attract ghosts. 10. People with weak horoscopes should never travel at night, otherwise they will only bring trouble to themselves. 11. Don’t go swimming, because your good friends will play the game of “ghost kick” with you, and if you are not careful, your life will be taken away. 12. Banyan trees should not be placed at the doorstep, because banyan trees are shade-gathering plants and are also the favorite of good brothers, unless you want good brothers to come to your house and visit. 13. The time when human popularity is at its lowest is late at night, and the time when ghosts are at their highest is also late at night. In comparison, who will win? 14. When you are walking in the wilderness or a sparsely populated area, and you feel as if someone is calling you, don’t look back easily, because that person may be a good brother. 15. During the Ghost Month, there are wandering ghosts everywhere. If you have disheveled hair, be careful that they may mistake you for one of their own and try to get you up to chat. 16. Ghost paper is a sacrifice to ghosts. When it is burned, ghosts will gather nearby to pick it up. If you step on or jump around while burning ghost paper, it will hinder their movements. The ghosts will be angry and will naturally do bad to you. 17. Try not to go out at night, because according to Chinese custom, July is called the Ghost Month, which means that the gates of hell are often open during this month. Especially during the Ghost Festival, the yin energy is the heaviest and hundreds of ghosts roam at night. Therefore, you should not stay outside on this day, and it is a big taboo not to return home at night. 18. Because the seventh month of the lunar calendar is the Ghost Festival, it is absolutely forbidden to slander ghosts and gods during this month. Many of my friends believe in science and do not believe in ghosts and gods. However, regardless of whether they exist or not, we still need to be respectful. Especially in the Ghost Month, we must not insult ghosts and gods, so as not to cause trouble for ourselves. 19. People born in July are a bit pitiful. When they celebrate their birthdays at night, there will most likely be some strangers who will sing Happy Birthday together. It is better to celebrate during the day. 20. Wet clothes are prone to stray radio waves sticking to them, making it difficult to get rid of them. In the ghost month when ghosts are everywhere, hanging clothes out to dry at night is like setting a trap to catch ghosts, so ghosts will cause trouble for you. Which of the three ghost festivals is the most powerful?The so-called three major ghost festivals actually refer to Qingming Festival, Zhongyuan Festival and Cold Clothes Festival. No matter which of the three major ghost festivals, they are all festivals for worshiping ancestors.If we look at it from the perspective of ghosts, the most powerful of the three ghost festivals is the Zhongyuan Festival. The Zhongyuan Festival is on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, so the seventh lunar month is also called the Ghost Month. There is a folk legend that in the seventh lunar month the gates of hell open wide and all ghosts come to the human world for vacation. So, the most important festival is the Ghost Festival. |
