What are the taboos on forgiveness day?

There are no taboos. Sacrifice, blessing, seeking heirs, fasting, marriage, marriage, tomb repair, burial and good luck are all appropriate.

There are four auspicious days in a year that are "no taboo". The ancients believed that, in any case, God would not blame these four days, so this day is commonly known as "God forgives", that is, Wuyin Day after beginning of spring, Wu Jiari after Xia Hou, Five Gods Day after beginning of autumn and Jiazi Day after beginning of winter.

People believe that heaven has the virtue of good life, and it is very pitiful to see all beings running for their livelihood, so they are prepared to forgive people some crimes on some specific days, which is the so-called "Heaven Forgiveness Day". In ancient times, the emperor would also learn from heaven. At a certain time, the time for the emperor to forgive the world was often on the "God forgives the day".

Don't think that God is merciful every day, and there are not many "days of forgiveness" in a year. Generally speaking, there is only one "forgiveness day" in each season. For example, in 2022, it was recorded in the Star Book that "the date of forgiveness was Wuyinchun, Wujiaxia, Wushenqiu and Jiazidong".

The meaning of forgiveness day:

Sometimes in life, you know what you can't do, but you have to do it, so it also brings you some troubles and tangled consequences. How to avoid an unpleasant ending or minimize its harm? One of the best ways is to go to the local large temples to pray for the elimination of disasters and evils, reduce all karma evils, and pray for happiness and longevity.

Killing is the most taboo on forgiveness day, so don't kill at will when you get married or hold a banquet on this day. Try to buy three gold meats in advance or simply have a vegetarian feast.
