Is the 16th day of the first month auspicious?

The 16th day of the first month of 2023 is not suitable for blessing, so it is suggested to choose another auspicious day.

Threshold is of great significance in ancient architecture. At first, the threshold was to prevent the airflow from coming in, and later it became a symbol of the owner's identity and dignity.

"Book of Rites" wrote: "Scholar-officials go in and out of Junmen and don't practice the threshold." It means that ministers should not step on the threshold when entering the temple, which is disrespectful to the monarch. In the north, especially in Hebei province, the 16th day of the first month is called "grinding the sun", so it is forbidden to open the warehouse, otherwise the storage in the warehouse will be ground away, resulting in a year of famine.
