What are the taboos on the eighth day of the first lunar month?

1. Avoid watching red wedding events . In ancient times, few men and women got married in the first month of the lunar calendar. There was a saying in ancient times that "raising one's head in red", which means that if a man and a woman got married in the first month of the lunar calendar, the Tai Sui of the month would suppress their heads, which would be unfavorable to their children and grandchildren. Therefore, few couples got married in the first month of the lunar calendar.
2. Avoid breaking objects. Breaking bowls, dishes, cups, and plates on this day means bad luck in the year. The remedy is to wrap them in red paper, chant auspicious words such as "peace every year", and place them on the altar for a few days to resolve the disaster. You can also wrap the broken pieces in red paper and throw them into the river after the New Year, chanting "Break the porcelain and get a pile of money and silver".
3. The rice jar must not be left empty to avoid the risk of running out of food throughout the year. This is called "accumulating wealth". On New Year's Eve, no water tank, big or small, can be empty. After it is filled, a well-sealing ceremony is held in the countryside. That is, cover the well surface with a large dustpan and then worship the well god. The winnowing basket cannot be opened on the first day of the New Year, because people tend to regard water as wealth water, and once the winnowing basket is opened, water will be used.
4. Women cannot use needles and thread . The eighth day of the first lunar month is the day for silkworms to celebrate the New Year. According to folk customs, the "year" of human beings and animals from the first to the eighth day of the first lunar month are represented by one chicken, two dogs, three pigs, four sheep, five cows, six horses, seven people and eight silkworms respectively. These are all related to farming, and people hope that the six domestic animals will prosper, the people will be safe, and the silkworm business will go smoothly. At the same time, there is a traditional taboo among the people that women are not allowed to use needles and thread on the eighth day of the first lunar month when the silkworms are celebrating the New Year.
