Why do you say "twelfth lunar month doesn't kill pigs"?

There are six days in the lunar calendar, namely the third day, the fifteenth day, the eighteenth day, the twenty-first day, the twenty-fifth day and the twenty-seventh day. You can choose the best day to kill pigs.

As soon as the twelfth lunar month enters every year, rural people begin to plan to kill the pig. Farmers have worked hard for a year. In order to have a lively New Year, many people will kill a pig at home to prepare for the Spring Festival.

After all, killing pigs is killing animals. A few days before preparing to kill the pig, the rural people will give the pig a few delicious meals. Animals also seem to have spirituality. Although their owners fed them delicious food, they ate very little in the last few days. Therefore, although there are not many taboos for rural people to kill pigs, they will not use knives any day, at least they will avoid some unlucky days and uncomfortable days.

Spring Festival custom paste Spring Festival couplets

According to the ancient calendar, December 30th of the lunar calendar is called "New Year". Getting up in the morning on New Year's Day, you need to stick a door god and paste Spring Festival couplets. Spring Festival couplets are unique folk symbols in China. Sticking Spring Festival couplets during the Spring Festival is a very grand project.

The so-called "Spring Festival couplets" are made of red paper, and then beautiful blessings are written on the red paper. In fact, this is also the organic integration of culture and Spring Festival. When people put red Spring Festival couplets on both sides of their homes, that is, "every family must change peaches", which actually means that the prelude of the Spring Festival has been officially opened.

Sticking Spring Festival couplets can also be called "Sticking Year Red" in ancient times, which includes not only the Spring Festival couplets on both sides of the gate, but also the red word "Fu" on the gate. Regardless of posting Spring Festival couplets or the word "Fu", it is actually to express people's good wishes for the New Year. In some places, two "door gods", Qin Qiong and Wei Chijingde, are labeled that families can ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters.
