[What is the source of not holding an umbrella at home]
China is the first country in the world to invent the umbrella, which is the crystallization of ancient wisdom. However, because "umbrella" and "scattered" are homophonic, there are bad meanings such as scattered transportation, scattered wealth and scattered family. People all hope that their homes will be safe and their financial resources will be rolling in, so they have some taboos about umbrellas and think that umbrellas should be used outdoors, not indoors.
In the countryside, you can't open an umbrella indoors. Old people often say that holding an umbrella indoors will leak rain. In many folk G stories, there is a story of a woman holding an umbrella, so feudal thought thinks that an umbrella is a symbol of bad luck, and holding an umbrella indoors is easy to attract Ah Piao. This is also one of the reasons why rural elderly often warn their descendants not to open umbrellas indoors. Because an umbrella is an object that covers the head, holding an umbrella where it is not needed will hinder children who are growing up at a high speed, so there is a folk saying that "children can't grow up with an umbrella at home."
In some folk customs, it is believed that playing an umbrella at home will make the house lose its shelter from people and at the same time cover up people's pride. But in reality, playing an umbrella at home will get in the way, and it is easy to touch things when walking with an open umbrella. There are many similar statements and emphases, most of which reflect a psychological function, followed by making things ghost and taboo, which makes people feel awe and not do these things.
