Why can't we do great things on the thirteenth day of the first month?

We can't do great things on the 13th day of the first month, because this day is the anniversary of Yang Gong's death. It won't go smoothly and it will bring a lot of bad luck. These thirteen "taboo days" are 1 month 13, February 1 day, March 9, April 7, May 5, June 3, July1day, July 29, and July 29. This biography was written by Yang Junsong, a geomantic master in the Tang Dynasty. In the view of Kong Xuan's family, it is not appropriate to do great things in these thirteen days, so we should pay attention to avoiding them.

The custom of the thirteenth day of the first month

On the 13th day of the first month, people will scatter lanterns. As an ancient Han folk culture, on the 13th to 16th day of the first lunar month, people will light lanterns at home and scatter them everywhere to eliminate ominous signs. Scattered lights are also called scattered villains. Fu Cha Dunchong, a scholar in the late Qing Dynasty, recorded in "When I was Years Old, Yanjing Shunxing": "From the 13th to the 16th, from the hall door to the palace door, I lit the lights and took photos, which is called scattered snuff, also known as scattered villains." Also remove the ominous meaning. "Snuff" is made of ordinary crepe paper. Generally, five colors should be selected. Even numbers are absolutely not allowed. The production process of snuff is also very particular. Before making, you must wash your hands and prepare a wet clean towel, because when twisting snuff, your hands will easily become smooth and you can't "twist" it. At the same time, there is an important folk activity on the 13th day of the first month, which is called "Lantern Festival". On this day, people will light a lamp under the kitchen stove, which is called "lighting the stove lamp". In fact, this is because the day of lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first month is coming, and all families have made lanterns in advance to prepare for the fifteenth day of the first month.
