How to choose an auspicious day for engagement?

1. Calculation of auspicious dates <br /> First, calculate the most auspicious date for marriage based on the birth dates of both the man and the woman. This "auspicious date" must be a day when a "noble person" appears, suitable for weddings in terms of the five elements, and cannot conflict with the man's wealth star or the woman's official star (except for those with more wealth and official positions).
2. Double Spring and Leap Month <br /> Chinese people are used to choosing an auspicious date for weddings to seek good luck and fortune. Double Spring and Leap Month: "Double Spring" and "Leap Month" are both good years for marriage. It is naturally a double happiness to have both "Double Spring" and "Leap Month" in a year! "Double Spring" refers to a year with two "Lichun" at the beginning and end of the year. Since spring has the symbolic meaning of the beginning of the year and spreading out, it is considered particularly suitable for marriage. "Leap Month" refers to a year with a leap month in the lunar calendar, that is, there are thirteen months in total. Since "leap" means nourishment and harvest, it symbolizes that the couple has love and harmony. When choosing an auspicious date, the elderly usually think that the best auspicious date is a leap year (a leap year will appear every two or three years, that is, there are two "Lichun" and one "leap month" in that year.) The "Mid-Autumn Festival" when the moon is full, that is, the eighth month of the lunar calendar is the most suitable month for weddings.

Things to note when choosing an auspicious date for engagement

1. Respect both parents <br /> When choosing an engagement date, you should generally respect the opinions of both parents. Engagement is a big event, and the elders will pay more attention to it. Therefore, it is best to discuss the engagement date with both parents before deciding. Choosing an "auspicious day" is a Chinese tradition, but we should not be too superstitious. The quality of a marriage is based on the feelings of both parties. It does not mean that everything will be fine if you just choose an "auspicious day". We still need to make reasonable arrangements from a scientific perspective.
2. Consider the actual situation of both families <br /> The auspicious day chosen should take into account that both elders will have time to participate and witness the festive scene with everyone, so it is also important to consider the physical condition of both elders. If one of the elders is unwell, he/she should be diagnosed and treated promptly, and plans should be made after he/she recovers. Do not rush to arrange a wedding, otherwise excessive fatigue on an auspicious day will aggravate the condition.
