In fact, the Zhongyuan Festival is also called "Ghost Festival" and "Mid-July". People born on this day have a strong destiny, especially those born at midnight (23:00 p.m. - 1:00 a.m.). People call people born at this time "Tiantai". Because the Ghost Festival is the time when ghosts appear, it is said that children born on this day are transformed from wandering ghosts. Therefore, people born on this day who have heavy yin energy are prone to qi deficiency, cold stomach, cold limbs, and are easily attracted by evil spirits. Most people believe that July 14th is the day when the gates of hell are wide open, so people rarely go out at night. It is said that friends born on the Ghost Festival will see some unclean things, and some say that people born on the Ghost Festival will have a more difficult fate. Ghost Festival actually originated from the story of Mulian saving his mother. The Buddhist scriptures say: "There was a monk named Mulian, who had great magical powers. His mother fell into the realm of hungry ghosts. As soon as food entered her mouth, it turned into flames. She was suffering from extreme hunger. Mulian was unable to save his mother, so he sought help from the Buddha, who preached the Ullambana Sutra and taught him to make a Ullambana on the fifteenth day of the seventh month to save his mother." It is said that after Mulian had experienced untold hardships in the underworld, he saw his dead mother, Liu, and found that she was being tortured by a group of hungry ghosts. Mulian wanted to use a bowl to serve her vegetables and rice, but the vegetables and rice were taken away by the hungry ghosts. Mulian had no choice but to ask the Buddha for help. The Buddha was moved by Mulian’s filial piety and gave him the Ullambana Sutra. Following the instructions, Mulian offered precious fruits and vegetarian food to his mother in a Ullambana basin on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month. The starving mother finally got food. In order to commemorate Mulian’s filial piety, Buddhists hold a grand "Yulanpen Festival" every year, which is what we now call the "Ghost Festival". From this we can see that the "Ghost Festival" originated from the traditional virtue of filial piety. How can people born on the Ghost Festival not be blessed by fate?
