Are taboos in the yellow calendar credible?

With the coming of China New Year, everyone will be ready to buy a new year calendar. The beautiful cars, idol stars, landscape gardens and pet paintings that were popular in previous years seem to be less attractive. On the contrary, China's traditional Gregorian calendar has become people's new favorite. So, are the things in the almanac credible? .

When citizen Zhou Xiao went to the food market two days ago, he found a stall selling almanac. The solar terms, gods and taboos in the Gregorian calendar are still very particular, especially the good and bad luck and daily taboos have become a major selling point of the Gregorian calendar. But Zhou Xiao turned over several different versions, and the problem appeared.

Can you believe some details in the yellow calendar? The reporter immediately interviewed some citizens.

Bao Mei said that the ecliptic is an astronomical concept, and auspicious days and ominous days are fortune-tellers' sayings, which are very different from folk customs such as solar terms.

Bao Mei, director of Suzhou Observatory of Purple Mountain Observatory, said: What is suitable for every day of 365 days in a year is not decided by the person who arranges the calendar, but by what everyone is doing and the conditions of doing things at that time.

Shen Jiandong, an associate researcher at Suzhou Folk Museum, said: Folklore itself has good customs and bad customs, and bad customs themselves contain superstitious elements, even harmful things, which should definitely be eliminated.
