Can you go back to your parents' home for the Dragon Boat Festival? Specifically, I suggest you judge according to local customs.
Due to the vast territory of our country, the custom of returning to parents' home during the Dragon Boat Festival is different in different regions. In some areas, I think going back to my parents' home during the Dragon Boat Festival will bring them bad luck. In some areas, I feel that I need to go back to my parents' house to hide from the Dragon Boat Festival, and I can't stay at my husband's house. In some areas, Dragon Boat Festival is regarded as Mother's Day, and now married daughters need to take their husbands and children back to their parents' homes. Therefore, whether a woman married on the Dragon Boat Festival can return to her parents' home also needs to be judged according to local customs and habits.
Beijing Customs introduced:
In the Ming Dynasty, "Ten Thousand Miscellanies on the List of Gods" recorded the custom in Beijing at that time: from the first day to the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, people dressed their little daughters extremely beautifully. Only married daughters also became mothers during this period.
Introduction to the customs of Suzhou, Hubei and Chengdu;
Women have to take their children under one year old back to their parents' home during the Dragon Boat Festival, which is called afternoon hiding, in order to let the children escape the evil spirits of the Dragon Boat Festival.
Shandong Customs introduced:
In Shandong, there is a saying that you can't go back to your mother's house during the Dragon Boat Festival. They will think that going back to their parents' home during the Dragon Boat Festival will bring bad luck to their married daughters, so they are not allowed to go back to their parents' home.
Therefore, it is suggested that whether a woman married on the Dragon Boat Festival can return to her parents' home should be judged according to local customs.
