By checking the almanac, we found that among the days that are suitable for today, there is the matter of getting married, so the Rain Water solar term in 2019 is a good day for engagement; Engagement tips:1. Avoid unlucky names of items in the betrothal gifts <br /> In the old days, the man’s family would select an auspicious date and bring gifts and betrothal 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 odd numbers for betrothal gifts <br /> The number should be even, as even numbers are a symbol of good luck, and there is a saying among the people that "good things come in pairs". The odd number is an unlucky symbol and is therefore taboo. 3. Avoid shoes in the betrothal gift <br /> 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 <br /> In some places, it is forbidden to put meat filling in the betrothal gift box. It is said that if meat filling is put in the betrothal gift box, the new bride will be slow in temper and will be slow in doing anything. 5. The woman should not return the empty gift box to the man <br /> After the betrothal gifts are sent to the woman’s family, the woman’s family should not 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. Health preservation during the Rain Water solar term:1. Maintain the spleen <br /> After the Rain Water solar term, as rainfall increases, cold and dampness are most likely to trap the spleen. At the same time, dampness lingers and is difficult to remove, so before and after the Rain Water, we should focus on nourishing the spleen. During the Rain Water solar term, the ground's moisture gradually rises, and dew and frost appear in the mornings. Therefore, in view of such climatic characteristics, dietary adjustments should focus on regulating the spleen and stomach and dispelling wind and dampness. Because the climate is relatively cold at this time, you can take appropriate supplements. Honey, dates, yam, white fungus, etc. are all suitable supplements for this solar term.2. Emotional stability <br /> This unpredictable weather can easily cause people's mood swings and even anxiety, affecting their physical and mental health, and is even more detrimental to patients with high blood pressure, heart disease, and asthma. In order to eliminate these unfavorable factors, in addition to continuing to practice spring cover, we should adopt active mental adjustment and health-preserving exercise methods. Keeping your emotions stable plays a very important role in your physical and mental health. 3. Exercise <br /> After the rain, the spring breeze brings warmth, and pathogenic bacteria and viruses are easily spread by the wind, so infectious diseases often break out in spring. Everyone should protect themselves, pay attention to physical exercise, enhance resistance and prevent the occurrence of diseases. |
