No washing on New Year's Eve. Why is there such a statement?

On New Year's Eve, there are indeed many areas that insist on not washing clothes. This is actually just a custom in some areas, or a "superstition" in some people's minds. When I was a child, my family also said that washing clothes was not allowed on New Year's Eve. New Year's Eve refers to the night on the last day of the twelfth lunar month. The word "except" in "New Year's Eve" is "go; Easy; The meaning of "alternation" means "poverty at the end of the month", which is the last night of the lunar calendar and means to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. New Year's Eve is the day to "bid farewell to the old and welcome the new" at the end of the year. Generally, all the ingredients are prepared before the New Year's Eve, and the whole family will pack jiaozi. After that, they will clean the home and personal hygiene again. Generally, the cleaning at home will be done two or three days in advance.

Because these two days are the birthday of the water god, I can't wash clothes these two days for fear of the water god. Laundry can be done on New Year's Eve, because it is a time to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. Take off the old, wash away the dirty and put on the new, symbolizing the beginning of a new year. Whether you are engaged, married, moving, taking a bath or getting a haircut, you don't have to choose a good day as before. These six days are all right. Therefore, these six days are also considered as a good day to forgive everything. As for washing clothes on New Year's Eve, it is only a folk custom in a few areas and has no substantive significance, but the significance of washing clothes on New Year's Day is different. The first day of the new year is also a day to welcome the god of wealth and good luck.

People in China pay attention to geomantic omen. In Feng Shui, water is regarded as wealth, and the rush of washing clothes means the loss of wealth on the first day of the new year. Therefore, washing clothes is forbidden on the first day of New Year's Day. This is usually the case here. In fact, Chinese New Year is the taste of a year. Now every family has no shortage of food, drink and clothes. Of course, there is one thing we can't do here, that is, don't sweep the floor on the morning of New Year's Day, even if there is a lot of garbage on the ground, don't sweep it at will, because everyone is following.
