With the arrival of the wax moon, the pace of the new year is also approaching. No matter how busy they are, people will keep in mind the principle of "3 don't touch, 2 don't drink", so as to pray for their families and welcome the arrival of the new year.
"3 don't touch" means not touching bad luck, not touching the bowl, and not touching idle things. During the special month of Wax, it is believed that these actions will bring bad luck and affect the fortune of the whole year. In daily life, people will pay special attention to avoid touching these "taboos" in order to have a safe and smooth new year.
"2 Don't drink" means not drinking alcohol and not drinking leftover tea. During this month, it is believed that alcohol is disorderly, affects people's reason and judgment, and makes it easy to make irrational decisions, while leftover tea is considered to have a bad connotation, so it is also included in the list of "taboos".
During this month of wax, many families follow these traditions to pray for a safe and prosperous new year. Mr. Wang, a citizen, said: "Although these traditional customs may seem superstitious, they are the cultural treasures of our Chinese nation. During the special month of Wax, we prefer to believe that these customs bring good luck and blessings to our families. ”
In addition to "3 don't touch and 2 don't drink", there are many other traditional customs in Layue. For example, on the 23rd or 24th day of the lunar month, there is a custom of "celebrating the New Year", on this day, people will sacrifice to the king of the stove, sweep the dust, eat the stove sugar, etc., in order to pray for a good harvest and peace in the coming year. On the 25th day of the lunar month, there is a custom of "illuminating the silkworms", and people light torches to illuminate the fields and pray for a good harvest in the coming year. On the 30th day of the lunar month, that is, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, every family will reunite and celebrate the New Year, eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, set off firecrackers, paste Spring Festival couplets, etc., to welcome the arrival of the New Year together.
In modern society, although some young people do not know much about these traditional customs, with the development of society and people's attention to traditional culture, more and more people have begun to re-examine these customs and try to practice them in their lives. Some families also organize family gatherings during the Spring Festival to celebrate the arrival of the New Year and inherit and promote the traditional culture of the Chinese nation.
Experts pointed out that although these traditional customs have a certain superstitious color, they are an important part of the Chinese national culture. By inheriting and promoting these customs, people can not only enhance their cultural self-confidence and national pride, but also better understand and inherit the history and culture of the Chinese nation.
In short, with the arrival of the wax moon, the pace of the new year is also approaching. In this special month, let's follow the principle of "3 don't touch and 2 don't drink" to pray for the blessings of the family and welcome the New Year. At the same time, we should also pay attention to and inherit the traditional customs of the Chinese nation, and jointly protect and carry forward our cultural treasures. May we all be safe, smooth, happy and healthy in the new year!
