Mid-Autumn Festival customs taboo:
1, male not Yue Bai
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, we all have the custom of enjoying the moon in Yue Bai, which is popular all over the country. However, in Yue Bai, it is not suitable for men to participate.
The ancients said, "Men don't Yue Bai, and women don't worship stoves". Men belong to the type of just-yang qi, and they are better off with the moon that belongs to yin. Moreover, the goddess in charge of the moon is Chang 'e, so the custom in Yue Bai is originally only suitable for female friends to participate.
2. The weak are physically weak.
Many people go to the open or wild places to enjoy the moon. This kind of hard work is not suitable for friends who are fit and weak, especially patients. Even if you are enjoying the moon at home, you should not participate, because the moon's yin is heavy, which may cause a burden to your body.
