If you want to know more details about the first lunar month, please visit Mr. Shui Mo's website.Can I get a haircut during the Lantern Festival in 2022?——From the perspective of the lunar calendarLunar calendar: January 15, 2022 Gregorian calendar: February 15, 2022, Tuesday, conflict with the snake in the west [Today's lunar calendar is suitable] Today is a taboo for everything, don't use it for major events [Today's lunar calendar is suitable] Today is a taboo for everything, don't use it for major events According to the lunar calendar for the Lantern Festival in 2022, this day is a day of taboo for everything, so it is not suitable to get a haircut . ——From the perspective of folk taboos The Lantern Festival is on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and it is not suitable to have a haircut or shave in the first lunar month. People believe that getting a haircut in the first month of the lunar calendar is unlucky, and there is even a saying that "getting a haircut in the first month of the lunar calendar will cause your uncle to die." In addition, there is a passage in the "Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic" in the "Four Qi to Regulate the Spirit" that says: Let your hair down and relax your body to give birth to your will. Give life and do not kill, give and do not take away, reward and do not punish. This is the response to the spring qi and the way to keep in good health. If it is violated, it will damage the liver, and in summer it will turn into real cold, and there will be few people who respect the elderly. This means that during these three months in spring, your hair should be allowed to grow freely and not cut; it should be left hanging loosely on your shoulders and not tied too tightly... If you violate this rule, you will hurt your lungs. But it is difficult for many people not to have a haircut for the entire three months of spring, so in the past people did not have a haircut in the first month of the lunar year, and it would be okay after the first month of the lunar year. What are the taboos about hair cutting and shaving?1. Among the Han nationality and many ethnic minorities, there is a custom that prohibits cutting hair and shaving beards during funerals. When someone dies in the family, men are not allowed to have their hair cut or shave for a month or a hundred days once they learn the bad news. One of the beliefs is that hair and beard are inherited from parents, so people do not discard them when their ancestors pass away, to show filial piety and to express grief and longing. Some say that it is to recall the sadness of the deceased and not to think about tidying up their appearance to show filial piety. Others say that not cutting hair or shaving is to change one's appearance so that the dead cannot recognize them and avoid disaster. The first two statements are both related to etiquette and are relatively close, and are the spread and influence of Confucianism. The latter theory is related to the popular belief that hair and beard are related to the soul, and that hair and beard can harm one's body through witchcraft.Second, the Han ethnic group also has the custom that nephews are forbidden to get a haircut at their uncle's house. It is said that if a nephew gets a haircut at his uncle's house, it will "harm his uncle." "Jiu" is homophonic with "jiu", which means old people. According to "Er Ya". "Shu" says: "Jiu means old; Gu means former. Jiugu is a term for elderly people." (See also "Baihutongyi") It can be seen that to hinder the uncle is to hinder the old, which means to hinder the elderly. This custom was once popular in the Central Plains regions such as Henan, Hebei and Shandong. It is especially taboo in the first month of the year. 3. Not only are haircuts and shaving prohibited during funerals, there are also many other taboos. For example, the Ewenki people have the custom of not getting a haircut or shaving in the afternoon. I wonder if it has something to do with the return of the soul, or maybe they are worried that getting a haircut or shaving in the afternoon will change their appearance and the soul will not be able to return to their body smoothly.
