Taboos for moving into a new house:

1. Avoid moving at night <br /> It is best to move in the morning or around noon, as the Yang energy is stronger during this period, which will help the Feng Shui of the new home. After all, a house needs enough yang energy, and the more yang energy there is, the better the feng shui. However, if you move at night, the negative energy will be extremely heavy. Bringing this negative energy into the new home will inevitably damage the feng shui of the new home.
2. Avoid moving when pregnant <br /> If a woman is pregnant, it is recommended not to move, but wait until the baby is born. Because children are extremely sensitive to Feng Shui aura before they are born, and they also need Feng Shui aura to maintain their health. Once you move, the change of Feng Shui aura can easily cause miscarriage in pregnant women, which is very harmful to the health of the fetus.
3. Avoid moving into a new house empty-handed <br /> Since it is a move, then the things in the old house must be moved into the new house. If all these things are moved by the moving company, and the owner does not take anything and moves into the new house empty-handed, it will have a certain adverse effect on the family's fortune. Therefore, Feng Shui suggests that it is taboo to enter a house empty-handed.

Little New Year Customs Stories:

Regarding the "Kitchen God Festival", there has always been a saying among the people that "officials celebrate on the third day, common people on the fourth day, and boatmen on the fifth day". That is to say, in ancient times, the officials' New Year's Eve was on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, common people's was on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month, and people on boats celebrated on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month. Because the north had always been the political center before the Southern Song Dynasty, the people in the north were more influenced by the official atmosphere, and the Kitchen God Festival was mostly chosen on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month. The south was far away from the political center, so most people celebrated the festival on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month. But no matter which day it is, the Little New Year represents people's desire to bid farewell to the old and usher in the new. No matter where you go in the country, the customs of the "Kitchen God Festival" are generally the same. Every year on this day, people go to the kitchen to worship the Kitchen God and Kitchen Goddess. A pair of couplets should be posted on both sides of the shrine. The upper couplet reads "May God report good things to you", and the lower couplet reads "May the lower world keep you safe" or "May you return to the palace to bring good luck", and the horizontal banner reads "The head of the family".
