The Ghost Festival is a festival to commemorate the dead and worship ancestors. Many people will return to their parents' home to visit the graves. So can we celebrate the Ghost Festival at our parents' home? Are there any taboos when returning to our parents' home for the Ghost Festival ? "Er Ya Shi Tian" says: "The seventh month is Xiang, and the eighth month is Zhuang." Therefore, the seventh month of the lunar calendar is also called "Xiang Yue". Come and follow Mr. Shui Mo's website to learn about every day of the seventh lunar month in 2019!Can I celebrate the Ghost Festival at my parents’ home?In most areas, daughters who become nuns during the Ghost Festival will not return to their parents' home . July 15th is the Ghost Festival in the folks. According to custom, daughters return to their parents' home on July 15th to worship their parents. If both parents are still alive, they should not go home, not even on July 14th, but can return on July 16th.What are the taboos when going back to your parents’ home during the Ghost Festival?1. A married daughter cannot sleep in the same bed with her husband when she returns to her parents’ home.2. It is bad for the financial luck of brothers if a married daughter lives in her parents’ home for a long time. 3. On the day you get married, you cannot look back when you leave the house. If you look back, it means that you will have a hard time in your husband’s family in the future and you will have to come back eventually. 4. You cannot stay at your parents’ home during the confinement period, or return to your parents’ home before the end of the confinement period, as this will bring bad luck. Which holidays can’t you go back to your parents’ home on?The first festival, counting from the Spring Festival, is the first day of the new year. A married girl must celebrate the New Year at her mother-in-law's house. Even if she does not go back to her mother-in-law's house, she cannot celebrate the New Year at her parents' house. This is a strict rule here and must be followed. A married girl must wait until the second day of the new year to be called back by her parents' family before she can go back to her parents' house.The second festival is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. This day is the reunion festival, but you cannot go back to your parents’ home and must celebrate the New Year at your mother-in-law’s home. The third festival is the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar. On this day when the dragon raises its head, you cannot go back to your parents’ home. The fourth festival is Qingming Festival. On this day, you cannot go back to your parents’ home, and women cannot go to sweep tombs, no matter if it is at your mother-in-law’s home or your parents’ home. Women cannot go to the cemetery. The fifth festival is the Dragon Boat Festival on May 5th. Even children know that this day is to commemorate Qu Yuan, but on this day you cannot go back to your parents’ home. Why? Although it is said that the fifth day of May is the day to take care of your mother-in-law, it means that if you go back to your parents’ home on this day, it will be bad for your mother-in-law. The sixth festival is the first day of the sixth lunar month. The half-year celebration is popular here. After the first day of June, it means that half of the year has passed. No matter how big or small it is, it is a festival, also called the half-year celebration. Therefore, you cannot go back to your mother’s home on the first day of the sixth lunar month. The seventh festival, July 15th is Ghost Festival. You cannot go back to your parents’ home on this day. No one can tell why, but since you are married, you have to abide by this rule. The eighth festival is a big festival, August 15th, the reunion festival can of course only be celebrated at the mother-in-law’s house. If a married girl spends August 15th at her parents’ house, the neighbors will use it as a topic of gossip, so no one dares to take the risk. The ninth festival, the Double Ninth Festival on September 9th, is also not allowed to go back to your mother’s home. The tenth festival is the Winter Solstice.
