The so-called Yang Gong taboo refers to: According to legend, Yang Junsong, a Feng Shui master in Tang Dynasty, made 13 taboos for poplar metric system according to the number of 28 stars. These thirteen taboo days are January 13th, February 11th, March 9th, April 7th, May 5th, June 3rd, July 1st, July 29th, August 27th, September 25th, October 23rd, November 21st and December 19th.

Since ancient times, Kong Xuan scholars have attached importance to Yang Gong's "Thirteen Taboos". In the eyes of Kong Xuan scholars, these thirteen days can never be chosen as the days of opening, construction, marriage and signing.
