Introduction: The Lantern Festival is an important day in our traditional festivals, so the Lantern Festival has many customs. At the same time, there are also some taboos that you need to pay attention to. So, what should we pay attention to during the Lantern Festival? Now, let’s follow the editor to learn about it. During the first month of the lunar calendar, you will have a good year. The first month is the most important month of spring. Mr. Shui Mo will share with you some knowledge about January. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, people hold lantern festivals, enjoy lanterns, eat Yuanxiao (Chinese rice dumplings), perform social activities, and play with dragon lanterns. In some cities and counties, there is a custom that new brides should avoid looking at the lights at their parents' home, saying: "If you look at the lights at your parents' home, your father-in-law will die." However, in some places, a new bride must live with her parents' home on the day of her burial, which is called "hiding from the lights." It is also taboo to have wind, snow, rain or fog on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. If this is the case, it means the year will be bad. As the saying goes: "When there are lights on the Lantern Festival, people and animals are healthy; when there is wind and snow, people get sick and cows die."

What taboos should we pay attention to during the Lantern Festival?

Among the people, there are many rumors about the taboos during the Little New Year, and it is not suitable to do certain things during this period, so as to avoid a bad year. Let’s do some statistics today to learn more and accumulate blessings for your luck in the year.
1. A child’s crying will bring bad luck to the family. No matter what happens, parents should try not to let their children cry. Because it is rumored to be the birthday of the Emperor of Heaven, celebration is the main purpose.
2. The damage of tools or other equipment means the disappearance of wealth in the coming year. Therefore, most businessmen will avoid operating large machinery on this day to avoid bad things from happening.
3. Avoid going to places with heavy negative energy and bad luck, such as graves, desolate places, hospitals, etc. These places mostly have weak yang energy, so people who are in poor health should avoid being exposed to bad luck.
4. Don’t carry too much money with you, because if you lose your property during the Little New Year, it means that you are unable to take care of your pocket and you will miss opportunities in the year.
5. Don’t lend money to others today. It is said that doing so will borrow your luck.
6. Don’t let the rice jar be empty, because there is an old saying that if there is no food, there will be a risk of food shortage.
7. Be careful not to tear your clothes on this day, as it is said that you will be plagued by bad luck for the whole year.
8. Do not kill any living creatures on this day. This is an ominous sign of seeing blood, and problems that may arise include financial loss and illness.
9. Try to avoid wearing white and black clothes, as these two colors are closely associated with death. Seeing these two colors on a big day will make the wearer have trouble getting what they want.
10. Avoid using foul language. It is said that if you do so, you will suffer from bad words this year, and you may accidentally say the wrong thing and bring about big disasters.
