Why can’t you get engaged in the twelfth lunar month?

According to the ancients, one cannot get married in the first month of the lunar calendar and cannot get engaged in the twelfth month, otherwise the couple cannot live together until old age. Therefore, marriages are seldom held in the first month of the lunar calendar, and engagements are seldom held in the twelfth month. This is because marrying a daughter-in-law in the first month will bring trouble to the parents-in-law, while getting engaged in the twelfth month will bring misfortune to the husband's family. Hence, there is a saying "Don't marry in the first month, and don't get engaged in the twelfth month." However, different regions have different opinions. For example, in some areas in the south, it is believed that after the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, or even around the New Year, it is the time when the gods go to heaven, and this period of time is very suitable for wedding activities. Therefore, this kind of proverb mainly depends on the customs of different regions.

How to choose an auspicious date for engagement?

1. First, calculate the most auspicious date for the wedding based on the birth dates of both the man and the woman. This "auspicious date" must be a day when a "noble person" appears. It must be suitable for weddings in terms of the five elements and cannot conflict with the man's wealth star or the woman's official star (except for those who have more wealth and official positions). 2. Double spring and leap month: Both "double spring" and "leap month" are suitable years for marriage. Having both "double spring" and "leap month" in one year is naturally double happiness! For example, the years of Renchen (2012) and Jiawu (2014). 3. Double Spring: refers to a year with two "Lichun" at the beginning and end of the year. Since spring represents the beginning of the year and the symbolic meaning of branching out and spreading, it is considered a particularly suitable time for marriage. Leap month: refers to a year with a leap month in the lunar calendar, that is, there are thirteen months in total. Since "leap year" means nourishment and harvest, it symbolizes the love and harmony between husband and wife. Double Spring and Leap Month: Double Spring and Leap Month are both good years for marriage. Having both Double Spring and Leap Month in one year is naturally double happiness!
