October 2018 has arrived. The first day of October every year is the Cold Clothes Festival. According to custom, we have to burn winter clothes for our deceased ancestors. The sunshine in October of the lunar calendar is great. Although its warmth is limited, it always spares no effort to drive away the severe cold. Come to Shuimoxiansheng.com to learn about the tenth month of the lunar calendar in 2018.What are the taboos during the Cold Clothes Festival?1. The first time you burn winter clothing paper after the death of a person must be in an odd year.2. It is taboo to give winter clothes as gifts without adding cotton. Use blue paper for the outside and white paper for the inside. Use glue to paste a thin layer of cotton in the middle to make a set of winter clothes and shoes. 3. Women should avoid traveling. It is said that the Cold Clothes Festival originated from the legend of Meng Jiangnu's journey of thousands of miles to find her husband. The fact that women travel on this day is a reflection of the tragedy of Meng Jiangnu's journey of thousands of miles to find her husband, but her husband was already dead. Therefore, in some places, it is taboo for women to travel on this day. 4. All clothes and paper money sent to the deceased must be burned completely. If there is even a little bit that is not completely burned, all the efforts will be wasted and the deceased cannot use them. 5. It must be burned during the Cold Clothes Festival or in advance. If the cremation is done after the first day of October, the deceased will not be able to put on his sleeves or pull up his trousers. 6.
