Avoid the seventh day of the first month: (because the ancients regarded the first day of the first month as a chicken, the second day as a dog, the third day as a pig, the fourth day as a sheep, the fifth day as a cow, the sixth day as a horse and the seventh day as a human being). On the first day of the first month, no chickens, dogs, pigs, sheep, cows and horses are not punished.
The first to fifteenth day of the first month is the "New Year", so farming is forbidden, thinking that farming at this time will offend the gods. One year was a bad year. New Year's Eve taboo: Lunar calendar1February 30th is New Year's Eve. The villagers thought it was an immortal from the upper world, so they should be sincere and respectful everywhere. Don't break dishes, swear, urinate, spill sewage and lamp oil on the ground. Avoid unlucky words such as "death", "ghost" and "kill".
When you have to say something, choose the right word and change it easily. If you commit a crime, it will be a bad year. Avoid splashing water and taking out garbage outside the door from the first day to the third day of the New Year's Day. I think going out with water and soil is like going out with money. A year is the beginning of a year, so I don't think a year is rich. Although a lot of dirt will be accumulated in the early stage, it can be sent outdoors. Avoid begging for fire from the first day to the third day, thinking that it is harmful to both subject and object. The fifth day of the first month is "breaking five", also called "five busy". Avoid farming, or you will think that something will break down during the year.
