Why can't Tomb-Sweeping Day go to the grave in 2023?

The reasons why Tomb-Sweeping Day could not go to the grave that day in 2023 are as follows:

From the perspective of folklore, "leap year and leap month" is also called "empty moon" or "empty moon". "Empty" means nothing, and "empty" means something illusory, just like a tree without roots, reflected in the water. Therefore, many people tend to avoid the "empty moon" in important activities such as weddings, funerals, building houses and moving. Therefore,

China traditional calendar usually divides 24 solar terms into 12 solar terms and 12 solar terms. Any month with only solar terms and no neutral atmosphere will be regarded as a leap month last month, while the lunar calendar in 20233 has only clear solar terms and no neutral atmosphere, so 2023 is a leap February. In some sayings, it is believed that the tomb will be destroyed when the leap month is clear, that is to say.

Tomb-Sweeping Day's taboo:

1, avoid wearing big red and purple

Tomb-Sweeping Day should wear plain clothes instead of red and purple. In addition, no one should wear red ornaments except those who are too old in their birth year.

2. Don't laugh and curse when sweeping the grave.

When sweeping the grave, you are not allowed to cross the grave and offer offerings, nor are you allowed to make loud noises, laugh and curse, swear, run around and grope, urinate and defecate everywhere and other disrespectful behaviors.

Step 3 avoid buying shoes

Shoes are homophonic with evil. Generally, you don't buy shoes at this time. If you really need it, stagger the time to buy it. If you accidentally buy shoes on Qingming Day, you can wrap them in red paper, leave them at the door all night, and then burn the red paper early in the morning.

4. Hair can't cover your forehead

According to the ancients, Tomb-Sweeping Day is also a "Ghost Festival". If you need friends who walk at night during this period, you must remember to bring protective mascots, such as mahogany bracelets. At the same time, show your forehead, don't cover it with your hair, because that's your destiny.
