Therefore, the day before the Lower Yuan Festival in 2019 is not an auspicious day for engagement. It is recommended to choose another auspicious day! Analysis of the origin of Xiayuan Festival!The fifteenth day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar is the traditional "Xia Yuan Festival", also known as the "Xia Yuan Day". In the old days, people also respected this day as the "Birthday of the Water God". This is because Changzhou belongs to the Jiangnan water town, and rural areas grow a lot of rice, and their sideline jobs include fishing and shrimping, sailing, etc., all of which have a deep connection with "water". Therefore, farmers attach great importance to the "Birthday of the Water God". On this day, they often "fast the Three Officials" (worship the God of Heaven, the God of Earth, and the God of Water) to pray for good weather, peace and prosperity for the country and the people. The custom of "fasting the three officials" has a very early origin. In the Southern Song Dynasty, Wu Zimu's "Dreams of the Southern Song Dynasty" recorded: "October 15th is the day when the Water God relieves people from disasters. Officials and common people hold fasts and hold rituals, either to relieve disasters or to pray for the dead." It can be seen that Taoism attached great importance to this in the Tang and Song dynasties. Among the Taoist gods, the "Three Officials" have a very high status, especially in the common people. Their origin is the natural worship of heaven, earth and water in the native primitive folk beliefs. According to Dianlue, early Taoism in the Eastern Han Dynasty absorbed traditional primitive folk beliefs and worshipped the "Three Officials" of Heaven, Earth and Water as the gods who dominated the disasters and blessings of the world. In the Song Dynasty, the "Three Officials" were linked with the "Three Yuans" (the 15th day of the first lunar month "Shang Yuan" is the birthday of the Heavenly Official, the 15th day of the seventh lunar month "Zhong Yuan" is the birthday of the Earthly Official, and the 15th day of the tenth lunar month "Xia Yuan" is the birthday of the Water Official), and the "Three Officials" were called the "Three Yuans". Later, with the gradual decline of Taoism, people's understanding of the "Three Yuans" gradually became vague, and the birthdays of the Three Officials became less and less important.According to the calendar, the 15th day of the 10th lunar month is also the last moon festival of the year. During this full moon period, people hold the most important ancestor worship activities. What are the taboos of engagement?(1) Avoid using unlucky names in betrothal giftsIn the old days, after the man’s family selected an auspicious date, they would bring gift money and gifts to the woman’s family 15 to 20 days before the wedding. Generally, this ceremony is very grand, because the amount of the gift the man gives to the woman not only reflects how much he values the woman, but also reflects the financial status of his family. Each item in the betrothal gift should have an auspicious name. For example, during the Sui and Tang dynasties, there were nine fixed betrothal gifts, including cassia bark, Jiahe, donkey-hide gelatin, cattail leaf, red reed, double stones, cotton wool, longevity thread, dry lacquer, etc. Each item has the meaning of blessing the couple's love to last forever. (2) Avoid giving betrothal gifts in odd numbers The number should also be even rather than odd, because even numbers are a symbol of good luck and there is an old saying among the people that "good things come in pairs". The odd number is an unlucky symbol and is therefore taboo. (3) Avoid including shoes in the betrothal gift In some places, it is taboo to include shoes in the betrothal gift because people are afraid that the woman will wear the shoes and run away. (4) Avoid putting meat filling in the betrothal gift box In some places, it is taboo to put meat filling in the gift box of betrothal gifts. It is said that if meat filling is put in the gift box, the new bride will be slow in temper and will be slow in doing things after she gets married.
