People all hope that everything will be satisfactory at the beginning of the year, which is a good sign. There are also some taboos on this day. Let's share the taboos and stresses on the New Year's Day.

Taboo and stress on the first day of the lunar new year 1

One of the important activities of the first day of junior high school is to pay New Year greetings to friends and relatives and neighbors. "Men and women worship their elders in turn, and the master leads the children out to pay respects to relatives and friends, or the children leave them to congratulate them, which is called New Year's greetings." This has become a traditional custom among Chinese people.

There is a folk legend about why to pay New Year greetings. According to legend, in ancient times there was a monster with a big mouth and was extremely fierce. People called it "Nian". On the 30 th night of the twelfth lunar month, it comes out door to door to eat people. People had to put the meat outside the door, then close the door and hide at home. It was not until the morning of the first day that they opened the door to congratulate each other and congratulate each other on not being eaten by Nian. This new year's greeting has been passed down from generation to generation.

In the Song Dynasty, the literati felt that it was too time-consuming to visit each other to pay New Year greetings, so they used famous cards to congratulate each other. Similar to present-day new year card, new year card in the Song Dynasty called the name thorn, which is a card about two inches wide and three inches long with his name and address written on it. Friends give each other gifts on the first day of the first lunar month, and even people who are not familiar with them give one to make friends. In the Ming Dynasty, the trend of sending letters to new year card was even worse: "I don't want to meet each other, but I just want to talk, and the famous papers are full of us." I also throw a few papers with people, and the world is too simple and not too empty. "

In the Kangxi period of Qing Dynasty, new year card began to make red cardboard. At that time, a kind of "box worship" was popular, and new year card was given to each other in a brocade box, which seemed solemn. During the Republic of China, new year card became more and more artistic and rich in content from design to printing. It has developed from a card with simple words of blessing to an exquisite artistic sketch with calligraphy, pictures and poems, which adds more festive interest to friends.

In the old days, there were several kinds of New Year greetings:

The first is the year when the subordinate worships the boss; The second is people with the same identity, who have to go to contact feelings and pull relationships. The third kind is that the closest relatives have elders at home, and the younger generation must pay a New Year call. Go into the inner house and kowtow to the elders.

There are also many taboos in folk New Year's Day:

Avoid using a broom. It is said that the first day of the first month is the broom birthday. You can't use the broom on this day, otherwise it will sweep away luck, break the money, and attract the "broom star", which will lead to bad luck. If you have to sweep the floor, you must sweep it from the outside to the inside.

Second, avoid splashing water and taking out garbage, for fear of losing money. Today, many places in Shijiazhuang still keep this custom, cleaning up on New Year's Eve, not putting out brooms and taking out garbage on the first day of the year.

Three don't eat porridge. In the past, only the poor would eat porridge, so the habit of eating dry rice in the first day of junior high school was left, indicating that they would be rich all year round. Four don't touch the needle and thread. There is a saying that "the first time you move a needle and thread, you choose the dragon tendon and the eye of a needle", which means that the eyes of a child born are as small as the eye of a needle. Five don't marry the daughter back to her mother's house. Being married for the first time means eating her poor. That's why the second day became the day to go back to my parents' home.

Seven avoid borrowing money. Borrowed other people's money in the first day, and relied on foreign aid all year round; Lending money to others on the first day of junior high school, property outflow for a whole year. Eight taboos pay New Year greetings to people who are still sleeping. If you give a New Year greeting to someone before they get up, they will stay in the hospital bed for a whole year. Nine don't pay attention to people who are under mourning.
