What does it mean to be suitable in the yellow calendar?

The "Yi" in the Gregorian calendar refers to the time point that is conducive to the occurrence of certain behaviors, festivals or events. "Inappropriate" means the opposite, indicating that this time point is not suitable or conducive to the occurrence of such behavior. These appropriateness and inappropriateness in the Gregorian calendar are inferred from astronomical and geographical knowledge, and people think that doing something at a specific time can get more good luck.

There are many suitable things in the Gregorian calendar, including entering houses, traveling, getting married, opening businesses, worshipping gods, offering sacrifices and so on. All these are verified and summarized by people of all ages, that is, the benefits people can get from doing these things at these time points are even related to success or others. For example, holding a wedding on a suitable day in the yellow calendar may bring happiness and smoothness to married people's lives. "Inappropriate" means that doing something at this point in time may have risks or unfavorable factors.

Many people believe in courtesy, justice and shame in the yellow calendar, so they will choose the right time to carry out some important activities according to the yellow calendar. Some target groups may ask people to provide the service of the yellow calendar to ensure that every decision is within the "appropriate" range in the yellow calendar, and to ensure good luck and smoothness. Of course, there may be differences between what different people say and what they believe, so people should make a more one-sided choice according to their own situation and specific decisions when using the Gregorian calendar.
