Speaking of Qingming Festival, I believe everyone is familiar with it. So, let’s take a look at what are the taboos when returning to one’s parents’ home during Qingming Festival? Time always passes quietly, and in the blink of an eye it is already the second month of the lunar calendar, but the passing years still leave traces. Shuimoxiansheng.com’s special topic for the second month of the lunar calendar in 2021 is also coming in time!What are the taboos when returning to your parents’ home during Qingming Festival?1. Do not visit the graves when you return to your parents' home during the Qingming FestivalIn many areas, a married daughter is not allowed to visit the graves of her parents during the Qingming Festival. It is believed that a married daughter can only visit the graves of her husband's family but not her parents' family. In some places among the people, the elders believe that if a married daughter returns to her parents' family to visit the graves and worship her ancestors during the Qingming Festival, she will take away the good luck and bring decline to her parents' family. Therefore, in some places, married daughters are not allowed to return to visit the graves and worship their ancestors. 2. You cannot bring your own fire when visiting your parents’ graves during the Qingming Festival In some areas, married daughters can visit their parents' graves when they return to their parents' home, but they are not allowed to bring their own fire. They have to go to their brothers' or wives' homes to get it. If a married daughter visits the graves to pay respect to her ancestors during the Qingming Festival, she must use her mother's family's gifts, otherwise her brothers' wives will be unhappy. People would generally say that this is selfish, so there is a saying that a married daughter has to go to her parents' home to get fire when she returns home to visit her parents' graves. Therefore, there are certain taboos when returning to your mother's home to visit the graves during the Qingming Festival. The specific taboos need to be judged according to local customs. Which holidays are not allowed to go back to your parents’ home?1. During the Spring Festival, on the first day of the New Year, a married girl must spend the New Year at her mother-in-law's home. On the second day of the New Year, she can only go back to her parents' home when her parents' family calls her.2. The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Reunion Festival, but you cannot go back to your parents’ home. There is a saying among the people that “seeing the lights of your parents’ home will lead to poverty for the rest of your life”, so you must celebrate the New Year at your mother-in-law’s home. 3. You cannot go back to your parents’ home on the second day of the second lunar month, the day when the dragon raises its head. 4. On Qingming Festival, you cannot go back to your parents' home, and women cannot go to sweep graves, no matter if it is at your mother-in-law's home or your parents' home. Women cannot go to the cemetery. 5. July 15th is Ghost Festival, when all ghosts come out. You cannot go back to your mother’s home on this day. 6. The Kitchen God Worship Day is also called the Little New Year. Because women do not worship the Kitchen God, there is a custom that they should not return to their parents’ home on the Kitchen God Worship Day. |
