Sharing knowledge about taboos on the eve of the Chinese New Year, what can’t you do on the eve of the Chinese New Year?
|
The 24th day of the twelfth lunar month is the Minor New Year's Eve. We have a small family reunion dinner on that night. After this day, it means the official start of the Spring Festival. Everyone should stop working in the fields and start to rest and prepare for the New Year, such as cleaning the house, changing into new clothes, writing Spring Festival couplets, etc. Hunan Satellite TV used to attach great importance to the Little New Year's Eve and held a large-scale Spring Festival Gala on the Little New Year's Eve, which had a great influence, making people more aware of and pay more attention to the Little New Year's Eve. Today, Mr. Shui Mo would like to give you a small reminder about some things to pay attention to and some taboos regarding the Little New Year's Eve, so that you can have a smooth Spring Festival. 1. Avoid making noise, go to bed early and keep quiet. Otherwise, "You bother it for one day, and it bothers you for a year." 2. The Kitchen God goes to heaven on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month and comes back on the 15th day of the first lunar month. This means he has completed his reporting mission and will bless the family with good luck and live a peaceful life. Nowadays, fewer and fewer people worship the Kitchen God, but the custom of eating sugar-coated melons during the Little New Year is still popular among the people. 3. After the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, people begin to clean the courtyards and rooms, remove dirt, buy New Year's goods, and prepare holiday foods, and they are busy until New Year's Eve. 4. Avoid pounding rice: The 24th is generally known as the "day of sending off the gods". On this day, the God of Wind will ascend to heaven. If you pound rice, there is a risk of knocking the God of Wind down, causing more wind disasters in the coming year. 5. Avoid crushing garlic: In some areas, it is believed that if you crush garlic at home on this day, the family will become poor, so you should not crush garlic on this day. 6. In addition, it is said that in some areas of Hubei, it is taboo to slaughter animals on the eve of the Chinese New Year.
