What are the taboos of the Dragon Boat Festival?

】 Yang Blade Day, Poison Attacks the Body <br /> This day is the fifth day of the fifth month. From the perspective of lunar calendar meteorology, it is around the summer solstice, so it is also the day with the strongest Yang energy in the year; it is also the actual Yang Blade Day. In this fifth month of the lunar calendar, Yang Blade is evil, and it is originally the so-called "poisonous month". There are a total of "nine poisonous days", and the Dragon Boat Festival is the first of the "nine poisonous days", so it is called the "poisonous day".
From the perspective of the Five Elements, any one of the Five Elements that is too strong or too weak will form evil spirits, which will pose a threat and harm to the natural climate or human health; what's more, this season is also the time when poisonous insects and bad insects are rampant; so on this day, you need to insert mugwort, peach branches, and calamus on the door to drive away ghosts; fumigate with Atractylodes and Angelica dahurica, drink realgar wine, or sprinkle realgar wine on children to repel insects, avoid evil spirits, and ensure health.

】On the day of sacrifice, the yin energy harms the body
One of the most important and common activities of the Dragon Boat Festival is to worship ancestors. Not only do people commemorate the poet Qu Yuan who committed suicide by jumping into the river, but in some places people also commemorate the loyal minister Wu Zixu and the filial daughter Cao E. On this day, they make a lot of rice dumplings and throw them into the river, just like visiting the grave of the dead, and they enjoy the rest themselves, so rice dumplings are actually a kind of sacrificial offering.
Sadness is inevitable during sacrifices, so on this day, like the Qingming Festival, people artificially create a strong yin energy. These yin energies, like the yang energy, can also harm people with weaker mental and physical constitutions, such as depression, bad mood, physical pain and so on. Therefore, the Dragon Boat Festival is a day not suitable for anything, especially for festive activities such as taking office, moving, starting construction, opening a business, getting married, and celebrations; it is also not suitable for participating in entertainment activities. The right choice is to return home to visit parents and reunite with family.

To summarize the above taboos, they can be simply summarized as follows:
1. During the Dragon Boat Festival, poisonous gases can hurt people, so people need to plant mugwort peaches and hang calamus to drive away poison and avoid evil spirits.
2. The Dragon Boat Festival is a day to express sadness, so people need to go on an outing with friends or reunite with family to regulate their physical and mental health.
