What month is May in the lunar calendar? What are the nicknames?

Folk customs believe that the fifth month of the lunar calendar is a poisonous month. The Dragon Boat Festival is the first of the Nine Poisonous Days, and therefore on this day there are many rituals in Chinese folk customs to ward off evil spirits and poisons, such as drinking realgar wine and inserting mugwort.
The fifth month of the lunar calendar has many nicknames:
1. The chirping of cicadas: The Book of Songs records that “cicadas chirp in May”. Cicadas are the chirping birds. This means that in May cicadas break through the soil and climb up the trees, starting the first clear singing of summer, so May is also known as "Ming Cicada".
2. The ancient Chinese people also used the twelve Earthly Branches to match the twelve months, and May was also called the "May Month."
3. Dragon Boat Festival and Duanyue The fifth day of May is the Double Fifth Festival, which is one of China's traditional festivals, so May is also called "Duanyang" and "Duanyue".
4. Evil Month, Suffocating Situation According to Chinese folklore, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the yin and yang energies contend with each other, and the yin energy wins. Evil spirits, ghosts, poisons (hence it is also called the "poison month"), and plague will slowly become rampant with the arrival of the scorching summer, so May is also called the "evil month", and we must use all means to ward off disasters and avoid evil. In fact, the reason why the ancient Chinese people had the saying of "evil month" is because the climate in May is warm and rainy, and sometimes it is warm and cold. Therefore, the ancient Chinese people also called May "Yu Zheng", which means low air pressure, high humidity and high temperature.
5. In May, all herbs grow luxuriantly. The line "A hundred herbs compete with each other to show off their talents" in "A Dream of Red Mansions" refers to the folk activity of competing with all herbs. The most prosperous herb in May is calamus. As one of the "Four Elegant Flowers and Plants", calamus grows on the banks of rivers. It is graceful, green and fragrant, and is deeply loved by people. Drinking calamus wine and inserting calamus leaves have also become important customs to drive away evil spirits on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. People also call May "Pu Moon".
6. The Pomegranate Month is named after the pomegranate flowers that are in full bloom in May. Han Yu has a poem that says "The pomegranate flowers in May are bright to the eyes." In ancient times, little girls in Beijing would dress themselves up beautifully in early May with orange or bright red pomegranate flowers inserted into their hairpins. Later, the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar was called "Daughters' Day."

Feng Shui knowledge you need to know when moving:

1. Those who face the east should avoid moving on the days of Si, You and Chou (three metal elements). Those who face west should avoid moving on the days of Hai, Mao and Wei (the three elements that combine to form wood). Those who face south should avoid moving on the days of Shen, Zi and Chen (water combination). Those who face north should avoid moving on the days of Yin, Wu and Xu (fire combination).
2. Moving means moving into a new home, which means you are going to live in a brand new place. But the money-loving people are indispensable for oil, salt, and bedding. You must be prepared when moving, and it is best to start a fire in your new home at noon on the first day of moving.
3. On the day of moving into the new house, be sure to boil a pot of water. It means money rolling in. If you believe in Feng Shui and tradition, you can also turn on the faucet in your home to the minimum and let the water flow slowly, which means you will get a lot of money and your new home will bring you good luck. You can also turn on the fan in the house to blow air all around. But don't blow it towards the door, as it will indicate prosperity.
4. You cannot take out the garbage on the day of moving into the new house. It is best to take out the garbage generated at home after three days. This is the same as the custom during the Chinese New Year. Home is a place where aura is transferred again. At this time, pillows need to be brought in first. According to the number of people in the family, put red envelopes in them, press them under the pillows, and place them on each person’s bed. The specific customs shall be subject to the respective local conditions.
5. It is necessary to have a housewarming party within a week after moving into the new house. This custom exists in all places. One reason is to invite relatives and friends to liven up the move. Take a look at your new home and identify the entrance. First, you can come and visit often in the future. Second, you need to move into your new home and make it more popular. Generally, we can invite relatives, friends, colleagues, and neighbors to our home to liven up the atmosphere, chat, and have a meal. The more lively the better. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." A person's destiny is already determined, and the only thing that can be controlled is his or her "luck."
