Can’t go out on the night of the winter solstice?

Yes, in our country there is a saying that you cannot go out on the night of the winter solstice. The main reason why you cannot go out on the night of the winter solstice is due to the following factors.
The first reason why you can’t go out on the night of the winter solstice: the winter solstice is a festival of sacrifice
Winter Solstice is also a festival for worshipping gods and spirits. In my country, people believe in ghosts and spirits. They think that ancestors who passed away during festivals will come home to visit and that ghosts will wander around. Therefore, people think that it is easy to encounter dirty things when going out during festivals for worshipping gods and spirits. That is why there is a saying that people should not go out on the night of Winter Solstice.
The second reason why you can’t go out on the night of the winter solstice: the legend of the origin of the winter solstice
Not being able to go out on the night of the Winter Solstice is actually related to the legend of the origin of the Winter Solstice. Legend has it that when Pangu created the world, the winter solstice was the time when all kinds of evil appeared, and the night was when the yin energy was heavier. At this time, many places believed that it was unlucky to go out on the night of the winter solstice.
The third reason why you can’t go out on the night of the winter solstice: the days are short and the nights are long on the winter solstice
The reason why you are not allowed to go out on the night of the Winter Solstice is actually related to the short days and long nights on the Winter Solstice. The Winter Solstice is the extreme point of the sun's direct southward movement. On this day, the sunlight directly hits the Tropic of Capricorn. The sunlight is most inclined to the Northern Hemisphere, and the sun's altitude angle is the smallest. This is the day with the shortest daylight and the longest night in all parts of the Northern Hemisphere. In ancient times in our country, it was quite inconvenient to go out at night, because there were rarely bright lights in ancient times. Therefore, on the day of the winter solstice, the ancients would return home early before dark.

Are there ghosts on the night of the winter solstice?

No, many friends think that there is a custom of sacrificial offerings on the day of the winter solstice, so the winter solstice is a ghost festival and ghosts will come out on that day. But in fact, the Winter Solstice is not the Ghost Festival, and no ghosts come out on the day of the Winter Solstice.
Reason 1:
Gu Lu of the Qing Dynasty recorded in "Qing Jia Lu": "The local people worship the ghosts on Qingming Festival, the 15th day of the seventh lunar month and the morning of the tenth lunar month. The Dragon Boat Festival, the Winter Solstice and the New Year's Eve are the Human Festival. Therefore, the Winter Solstice is the Human Festival, not the Ghost Festival.
Reason 2:
From a scientific point of view, there are no ghosts in the world. And there is no scientific research to prove that ghosts exist in the world.
The belief in ghosts and gods has always been that if you believe in them, they exist; if you don't, they don't exist.
