The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional Chinese festival. Every Dragon Boat Festival, every household starts making rice dumplings, and the fragrance of rice dumplings fills every household! So, when is the Dragon Boat Festival in 2019 and what are the taboos of the Dragon Boat Festival! The "Book of Songs" records that "cicadas sing in May". Cicadas are the chirping cicadas. In the fifth month of the lunar calendar, summer cicadas sing, so it is called "singing cicadas". If you want to know about the auspiciousness and inauspiciousness of the fifth month of the lunar calendar in 2019, come and have a look at Mr. Shui Mo.When is the Dragon Boat Festival in 2019?According to the old almanac, the date of the Dragon Boat Festival in 2019 is:Gregorian calendar date: Friday, June 7, 2019 Lunar calendar date: Lunar calendar year May 5, 2019, May 5, Year of the Pig What are the taboos during the Dragon Boat Festival?1. On the day of Yang Blade, poisonous energy attacks the body.This day is the fifth day of the fifth month. From the perspective of the lunar calendar, it is around the summer solstice, so it is the day with the strongest Yang energy in the year. It is also actually the Yang Blade Day. In this lunar month, the 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. Therefore, on this day, people will insert mugwort, peach branches, and calamus on the doors to drive away ghosts; fumigate with Atractylodes and Angelica dahurica, drink realgar wine, or sprinkle realgar wine on children to drive away insects, avoid evil spirits, and ensure health. 2. On the nine poisonous days, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited. On the nine poisonous days, sexual intercourse is strictly prohibited. Some people may say that this is superstition, but the ancient teachings strictly prohibit sexual intercourse. This is not superstition, but a very natural scientific principle. The 5th, 6th, 7th, 15th, 16th, 17th, 25th, 26th and 27th of the fifth lunar month are the "Nine Poisonous Days of the Intersection of Heaven and Earth" and the 14th is the Day of the Intersection of Heaven and Earth. There are ten days in total, and the Dragon Boat Festival is the first of the nine poisonous days. Poisonous gas attacks the body and evil energy is strong. It is also said to be the day when heaven and earth are in harmony. When the energy field of heaven and earth is not right, it will inevitably affect people's body and mind. For example, if you have sex on the Nine Poisonous Days, you will be poisoned and your body will be injured. Therefore, it is not suitable for sexual intercourse between men and women. The Nine Poisonous Days is also called "Returning Home Day". "Returning Home" means that a married woman goes back to her parents' home to visit her parents, separating the couple. This was done by the ancients to prevent some people from breaking taboos by being greedy for sexual desire and unable to control themselves. This objectively eliminated the conditions for careless sexual intercourse and also protected the health of the parties involved. There are nine more poisonous days following this, which basically cover the entire fifth month of the lunar calendar. Therefore, in some places, sexual intercourse is prohibited throughout the entire fifth month to avoid evil spirits and poisons. 3. On the day of sacrifice, Yin energy harms the body. One of the most important and common activities of the Dragon Boat Festival is to worship ancestors. Such as the poet Qu Yuan who committed suicide by jumping into the river, the loyal minister Wu Zixu, and the filial daughter Cao E. On the Dragon Boat Festival, every household will make a lot of rice dumplings. Zongzi is actually a kind of sacrificial offering. People will throw the zongzi into the river to commemorate their ancestors, and enjoy the rest themselves. 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. |
