There are different things to note for every traditional Chinese festival, and a daughter’s return to her parents’ home is also something that needs attention. So, can I go back to my parents’ home to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival? Can I sleep with my husband? The earthly branch of the fifth month in the lunar calendar is Wu, which represents Yang Fire, so it is also called the Wu month. The fifth month in the lunar calendar is the time when summer insects chirp and midsummer is fragrant. For more information on the do’s and don’ts of the fifth month in the lunar calendar in 2019, please pay attention to Mr. Shui Mo’s website!Can I go back to my parents’ home for the Dragon Boat Festival?Of course you can go back to your parents’ home to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival.One of the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival is called Guining, which means returning to one’s parents’ home. In ancient times, after a daughter got married, she would live in her husband's home for a long time and rarely saw her parents. The Dragon Boat Festival is her chance to go home and visit her parents. Can I sleep with my husband during the Dragon Boat Festival?This is not possible.During the Dragon Boat Festival, there is a custom of "hiding from the noon" , because in Chinese folk the fifth month of the lunar calendar is known as the "poisonous month" , and the Double Fifth Festival is an unlucky day. Therefore, men and women should not have sexual intercourse during the Dragon Boat Festival, otherwise it will easily cause serious damage to people's vitality. Therefore, couples should not sleep together on the Dragon Boat Festival, so as to avoid losing control of themselves and hurting their vitality. In order to prevent such things from happening, the clever ancients had the custom of letting women return to their parents' home in May, which is called Guining, for a month. |
