Today is May 14th, Tuesday, everyone should get up early and be busy going to work, today is not a holiday so there is no holiday, but according to the old custom, today is a more special day, because today is also the seventh day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar, and it is also the fourth "Yang Gongji Day" this year, which is also the old custom of the older generation.
What is "Yang Gong's Death Day"?
In ancient times, because there was no scientific argument, people would have some superstitions to a greater or lesser extent, so they would look at the days before doing some big things, such as going out, getting married, breaking ground, etc., and avoid doing these big things on some days with bad meanings.
However, until modern times, people still look at the days, but unlike in the past, people now look at the days for auspiciousness, which is a kind of self-psychological comfort, and is no longer as superstitious as in the past. Especially when getting married, they will choose an "auspicious day" in order to wish the marriage a long and happy one.
This kind of culture of looking at the day is also called "choosing auspicious culture", and "Yang Gong Festival Day" is one of the ways to see the day, in addition, there are many ways to see the day in addition to the 12th day, 28 constellations, etc.
"Yang Gong Ji Day" is also called "Yang Gong Thirteen Ji Day", because there will be thirteen days in a year "Yang Gong Ji Day", distributed in various lunar months, and these lunar days are selected by the famous Feng Shui master "Yang Yunsong" in the Tang Dynasty, of course, he is not a random choice of days, Yang Yunsong through the astronomical calendar in the twenty-eight constellations, observe its operation law, cycle changes, in order to pick out thirteen special days.
The thirteen days of Yang Gong are selected according to the twenty-eight constellations, so they correspond to the days of the lunar calendar, which are:
It is recorded in the "Siku Quanshu and the King James Concord and the Defense Book":
"The world is afraid of Yang Gongji, and the book is also written for many years. It is said that it is not suitable to travel on the day, and the disadvantages of the offender are all confused because they do not know the reason. Today, according to its words, it is the day of the room fire pig, and the new year's day from the corner of the house is twenty-eight days in turn, and the order is the day of the room stay, that is, Yang Gongji. ”
In the old customs, "Yang Gong Thirteen Taboos" is also known as "Pepsi Taboo Day", referred to as "Death Day", so this day will pay more attention, today is the seventh day of April is "Yang Gong Death Day", so remind everyone, remember: 1 do not say, 2 do not do, 3 do not come out, the picture is smooth!
1. Don't speak: Don't say crazy or frustrating words
Today is one of the days of Yang Gong's death, so there are some things that cannot be said nonsense, such as crazy words and frustrating words, the so-called "to avoid the argument, you can still say it", we have to say more words with positive energy.
Today is the seventh day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar, the ancients taught us not to talk nonsense is also reasonable, as the saying goes, "there must be rain when the sky is mad, and there will be disaster when people are crazy", arrogant words often make people lose their humility, and it is easy to cause disgust and rejection of others, and the "Analects" also mentions: "The gentleman is not arrogant, the villain is arrogant but not Tai", low-key humility is the "wisdom of the world", and being positive and strong is the "parasol" of life, so no matter what day it is, we should not easily say crazy words and frustrated words.
2. Don't do: don't move the soil, don't open the business
Yang Gong's death day is a Pepsi taboo day, therefore, the ancients would avoid "breaking ground" on this day, and "breaking ground" contains a lot, such as building a house, adding soil, burial and other soil-related things, because in the concept of the ancients, "heaven is the mother, the earth is the father", so the general groundbreaking will choose a better day to avoid "Yang Gongji Day".
"Not opening" refers not to be able to open the door to do business, but to open a new store, in ancient times, generally people will pay more attention to the opening of a new store, because the people who can do business at that time are generally counted as local rich businessmen with names and surnames, in order to open a good fortune and a wide range of financial resources, they will choose to open on the "Zodiac Day".
3. Don't go out: don't go out to visit friends, don't go out
On the seventh day of the fourth lunar month, it is one of the thirteen death days of Yang Gong, and the ancients would avoid visiting relatives and friends on this day, because to avoid some verbal disputes, after all, "harmony is precious".
In ancient times, the traffic was not developed, people often need dozens of days to go out of a long way, which is often accompanied by a lot of uncertain factors, so the ancients liked to choose a good day to travel, will try to avoid such an inauspicious day as "Yang Gongji Day", although there is no scientific basis, but this is the ancients' yearning for peace and beauty.
In modern transportation, it has gradually become convenient, going out high-speed rail, airplanes, driving, etc., so these old customs have gradually ceased to pay attention to, but everyone should at least be optimistic about the weather forecast and avoid traveling in extreme weather.
Today, the seventh day of the fourth lunar month, is also the "Yang Gong Death Day"! Everyone remember: 1 do not say, 2 do not do, 3 do not out, these taboos we must understand, although some of the concepts of the old customs are gradually abandoned by modern times, but some of the educational principles are still worth learning, so in understanding these cultures at the same time, we can not believe, but to maintain a respect, a relief.
