When is the twelfth lunar month?

The twelfth month of the lunar calendar is the last month of the lunar calendar.
Regarding "La", there were records of "Rou Fu" and "La Wei" as early as in works such as "The Book of Changes" and "The Book of Rites". The original meaning of "La" is "dried meat". There are many names for the twelfth month of the year, the most well-known of which is "La Yue". The weather this month is most suitable for air-drying and making cured meat, so it is called "La Yue". There is also a saying that "La" is a homophone of "Lie", and "La Festival" can also be "Lie Festival". "La Festival" means hunting animals to sacrifice to ancestors. For example, Ying Shao's work "Fengsu Tongyi" in the Han Dynasty said: "La means hunting, which means hunting animals in the fields to sacrifice to their ancestors." There are also sayings that "La" refers to the transition between the old and the new. For example, "Fengsu Tongli Dian" said: "La means connection, the transition between the old and the new, so a grand sacrifice is held to thank the merits."
The twelfth lunar month is the month when many sacrifices are made as it lies at the junction of the old and the new year. It is also known as the last month of winter, the last winter, the Jiaping month, the last winter and the severe winter. As early as the pre-Qin period, some places in my country held the "year-end sacrifice" in this month when the old and new years met, and the sacrifice held in this month was also called the "La Festival."

What should we pay attention to in the twelfth lunar month?

1. No Engagement
Among the folks, there is a saying that "Don't get engaged in the twelfth month, and don't get married in the first month", which means it is not suitable to get engaged in the twelfth month, and not suitable to get married in the first month.
Because the twelfth lunar month is the month for preparing for the Chinese New Year, getting engaged in this month will interfere with the "busy new year". There is also a saying that if a couple gets engaged in the twelfth month, they will not be able to grow old together.
2. You can’t go back to your parents’ home
After the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month (i.e. the Little New Year), if there is a son at home, it is not appropriate for a married daughter to return to her parents' home. She can only go back on the 2nd or 3rd day of the 1st lunar month.
According to the older generation, this is called "a girl should not step on the dust and grass of her mother's home." Stepping on the dust and grass means cutting off the roots of her mother's home, which means that if a married daughter returns to her mother's home at this time, she will cut off the incense of her mother's home.
3. No moving or breaking ground
People believe that it is not appropriate to move house or start construction in the twelfth lunar month, because it is a month for sacrifices and a month for preparation before the Spring Festival, which is very important.
Moreover, during the twelfth lunar month, many preparations are related to attracting wealth. If you move house at this time, it is equivalent to throwing away the family's wealth, and you will live a "poor" year.
4. No shortage of rice or water
In rural areas, the twelfth lunar month is the last month before the Chinese New Year, and the family cannot lack anything. The rice jar and water jar must be filled.
Filling up the rice jar and water jar at home in the twelfth lunar month symbolizes surplus every year, meaning that the next year will be a good year and a year of abundance and happiness, so they must be filled up immediately after they are used up.
5. Don’t say bad things
During the twelfth lunar month, you cannot say bad things. Especially after the Little New Year, it is best not to curse or argue with others.
In the past, people believed that what you say will come true, so in order to have a good start in the next year, you must say good things to welcome the new year. In rural areas, there is even a saying that goes "If a donkey dies on New Year's Eve, even if it's not good, you have to say it well."
