Introduction: The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival, and the dates of the Dragon Boat Festival can be good or bad, auspicious or inauspicious. So is the Dragon Boat Festival in 2019 an auspicious day for marriage proposal and engagement? What is the meaning 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".

What is the meaning of Dragon Boat Festival?The first meaning:The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Duanwu, is one of the largest traditional festivals in my country. The meaning of "Duan" is the same as that of "Chu", so calling "Duanwu" is the same as calling "Chuwu"; the "Wu" in Duanwu is connected with "Wu", and according to the order of the Earthly Branches, May is the "Wu" month. Because noon is the "Yang Chen", the Dragon Boat Festival is also called "Duan Yang". On May 5th, both the month and the day are five, so it is called the Double Fifth, also known as the Double Fifth. The second meaning: The Dragon Boat Festival, which falls on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar every year, is originally called the Duanwu Festival, also known as the Duanyang Festival, the Double Fifth Festival, the Double Fifth Festival, the Tianzhong Festival, and the Tianchang Festival. Duan means "beginning" or "beginning". The fifth day of the first lunar month can be called Duanwu. The lunar calendar uses earthly branches to record the months. The first month is Yin, the second month is Mao, and so on until the fifth month is Wu. Therefore, May is called the Wu month, and the fifth day of May is called the Dragon Boat Festival. Other meanings: 1. May is a poisonous month, the fifth day is a poisonous day, and noon on the fifth day is a poisonous time. It is the most poisonous time among the three poisonous months, so the Dragon Boat Festival is also called "May Festival". 2. Because Emperor Taizong of Tang’s birthday was on the fifth day of the eighth lunar month, in order to avoid taboo, the fifth was changed to noon. From then on, the name Dragon Boat Festival became more common. Because the number of months and days is the same, people also call the Dragon Boat Festival "Double Fifth Festival" or "Double Fifth Festival". 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. (5) Avoid the woman returning the empty gift box to the man After the betrothal gifts are delivered to the woman's family, they are forbidden to return the empty gift box to the man. Generally, part of the food will be returned to the man's home, or the clothes prepared by the woman for the man will be placed in a gift box for the man to take back. According to the custom in the Central Plains, the man must bring a rooster when sending a betrothal gift, which means good luck. When the woman receives the betrothal gift, she does not keep the rooster and takes back a hen. The hen must be alive, and white is not recommended, as it is unlucky to have a white hen with other hens. 2019 is the year of Tai Sui for those born in the Year of the Pig.
