Several Folk Customs and Taboos

The taboo of ancient folk is the crystallization of life experience and wisdom culture.

An umbrella is as important as a mosquito net.

Don't use umbrellas at home, especially black and white umbrellas. Try not to pull mosquito nets when there are no mosquitoes.

I often have nightmares, so I can crack them.

Have nightmares every night or often have the same dream in succession. If you want to solve this symptom, you can put an egg and a piece of jade on the pillow. If the symptoms still remain unchanged, you need to change the door gods to solve them.

Dogs can drive away evil spirits.

People who often need to travel at night had better take a dog with them to drive away evil spirits. (except pet dogs)

▌ bad luck Doing so can change your luck.

If you feel unlucky for half a year, difficult things will follow, you'd better travel for a while, or consider moving to avoid major disasters.

It is not always good to stay at home.

People who like to stay at home and not see the sun, it is best to go out for a walk more if they have nothing to do. Because one day at home, the yang is occupied by the yin. In the long run, it is easy to "yin flourishes and yang declines", which can be seen from whether you like the sun or not. Plenty of people in Yang Can like the sunshine very much, while those with plenty of yin will feel uncomfortable when they touch the sunshine.

Not everyone can spend the night.

Dark and damp dilapidated houses or earth temples are full of evil spirits. People who need to sleep at night should never go to these places for the night.

▌ The bridge is also blessed by God.

Don't pee on the bridge. Because there is a bridge god on the bridge, it is disrespectful to pee on the bridge. The bridge god controls the life and death of passers-by.

Trees not allowed to be planted in the yard.

Mulberry, Sophora japonica, bamboo, eucalyptus and cordate telosma are the most shady, so don't plant them in the yard.

The placement of the bed must be very particular.

Never face the door in bed, that's the way for the dead.

Nightmares and diseases should be treated at the same time.

I had nightmares on the first night when I came home from a long trip, and I woke up nauseous. I not only need to see a doctor in time, but also put a knife to kill animals under the bed to ward off evil spirits.

People became numb and thought it was just a dream, and then tragedy happened. I can't seem to be numb when I meet something strange, because it seems that the result of something strange is about to appear. People live in the world, how can they do whatever they want everywhere? You see, what did these dangerous incidents say at the customs, and how to resolve them?

1. Hit your head with bird droppings.

The omen and solution of bird droppings hitting the head: this is a sign of bad luck. As for how bad it is, bird droppings are also called bird droppings, which is very close to the sound of death. Therefore, it is unlucky to hit your head with bird droppings in customs. There are different ways to resolve local customs, such as washing your body with grapefruit leaves, eating red eggs and killing chickens for sacrifice.

Summary: Similar events, including getting wet by human feces or urine of other animals, will be regarded as unlucky. Relatively speaking, the head is considered as the most serious unlucky event, followed by the shoulder. Other positions are basically very light, generally do not need to mind.

Step on a stool

The custom is to step on human excrement, followed by cattle, dogs, horses, mules and donkeys. Stepping on shit is good luck.

What do you mean, step on shit? The trail went to many places and the results were basically the same. The main explanation is that you will encounter losers when you step on shit, and the solution is mostly to pray after cleaning. Why is stepping on shit called good luck? Because dogs are sanitary, they usually only pee under trees, wooden stakes and telephone poles, which are relatively partial. You can step on shit, which means that you are not so disciplined when you walk. In life, people who don't pay attention to things often have partial wealth. Therefore, people who step on shit often have partial wealth, and then this sentence is equal.

3. The right eye keeps jumping

The left eye jumps for money, and the right eye jumps for disaster.

In fact, this conclusion is related to the summary of our ancestors. When things and objects are put together in pairs, there must be one yin and one yang, one positive and one negative. In Zhouyi theory, the left is big, the right is small, the left Qinglong says it is a good thing, and the right white tiger says it is the bane of quarreling. Therefore, the conclusion that the left is rich and the right is a blessing and a curse comes from this.

Of course, it is more often caused by eye fatigue, but customs can be passed down for thousands of years, and there must be reasons for their existence. In fact, I tell you, at this time, you must do something to protect them. True numerology will never let you wait for death, because since numerology tells you a sign, it will let you do something next.

4. Hear the laughter of owls at night

I'm not afraid of owls barking at night, but I'm afraid of owls laughing.

People believe this sentence very much because it really works. When an owl makes such a laugh somewhere, that place will soon die. This is not because the owl is a monster, but because it has a keen sense of smell.

The human body itself is an electrolyte composed of acid, alkali and salt. When the human body dies, the electrolyte decomposes rapidly, that is, the decomposition speed of metabolism is much faster than the synthesis speed. At this time, it will emit a smell, which is the smell of carrion. Owls are carnivores and have a very sensitive sense of smell. Will fly in search of food. It can smell food but can't find meat, so it will make an anxious cry. That is, the folk call the owl's laughter. This problem needs to be solved by Taoist priests.

5. The cat came to the poor family, and the dog came to the rich family, Dai Xiao Cloth.

Of course, since we are talking about evil things and want to solve them, we mean what to do with cats and pigs.

Why is the cat pitiful? In fact, the cat is a very self-centered animal. Except when it wants to eat, it is basically doing its thing at other times. Proverbs come from history, so we should look at problems from a historical perspective. People didn't keep cats as pets as they do now. Cats used to be kept mainly to catch mice. Cats come to your house because there are many mice, so food and home are prone to problems and diseases will increase, so the ancients put the blame on cats.

In the past, pigs were the most important wealth of a family. If you want someone else's pig, it means that you want someone else's family wealth, and that person will fight hard with you. The solution is that families with cats will kill rats on a large scale, and families with pigs must not leave pigs behind.

6. There is a bad wind blowing

Sometimes when we go out, there will be a sudden gust of wind blowing head-on, and we will feel that this wind is different from the usual wind, because it is particularly cold and even has a rotten smell. In fact, some small cyclones are also like this. We know that people who fight evil spirits are prone to get sick, and the evil spirits mentioned by Chinese medicine are basically like this. The solution is to take a bath with very hot water and then drink a big bowl of ginger soup.

7. The ancestral tablet fell to the ground

Some people have ancestral tablets or spiritual tablets at home or in ancestral temples. If the ancestral tablet falls to the ground, it will be considered as a disaster without the blessing of the ancestors. In other words, ancestors can't protect you, which generally indicates a lawsuit or life-threatening. The folk solution is generally to ask Taoist priests to do it.

8. Women leap over the production tools used by men.

In fact, women, especially women in menstrual period, are very taboo to contact with production and living tools that are considered to be full of flames by customs, such as shotguns, men's shoulder poles, fishing rods and so on. I think it will bring bad luck to men and affect the harvest.

When these things happen, then a very special person will solve them by letting these tools pass through the brazier or lighting paper money to run around them several times.

9. Wearing underwear

In ancient times, women's menstrual belts and women's underwear could not be exposed to the sun, but dried in the shade. If someone covers his head with underwear, it will be regarded as a great shame.

This humiliation is similar to asking people to wear pants. It seems that the only way to solve this problem is to rely on self-reliance.

10. I accidentally dropped the bowl and basin.

In fact, if it is predicted that this situation will damage the family fortune, it will lead to great disaster for family members. The solution is to say "Happy New Year" at once.

1 1. The lighting items worn are damaged or broken.

As the old saying goes, jade tablets can block disasters. Now that it has prevented a disaster, the next thing to do is actually to put the undamaged projects back and bless them or open them. Damaged or damaged protective equipment needs to be replaced immediately. Of course, from countless practical cases, it is found that the rope worn in the dream to open the item is broken or the Yu Pei is broken, which also needs to be replaced or reopened.

12. Tripping or dizziness when leaving home

Out of the house, suddenly tripping or dizzy or feeling that something is wrong all over.

This evil thing generally indicates that things will be bad that day. The solution is simple: change the plan.

13. I dreamed that I had an accident with a distant relative.

I dreamed that I had an accident with a distant relative, or there was a funeral at home or pear blossoms around the house.

This kind of dream basically indicates that relatives are in trouble, and the solution is to pray for blessing, or to send relatives to protect things, at least pray for God's blessing.

14. Burn the head incense

When the incense is broken, it can no longer be used as a sacrifice. Generally speaking, burning this incense will lead to the separation of wife and children. In fact, what is shown here is that we should be respectful to the Buddha and everything should be satisfactory. As for the solution, in fact, it is to sacrifice again and ask God and Buddha for forgiveness.

15. Seeing snakes mating

According to custom, it is unlucky to see snakes mating, which means that they will shed a layer of skin when they die in the future, that is, they will die disgusting. The solution is to spit.

As a matter of fact, there are many things that indicate bad luck in the custom. Here are only the most common 15 things in the alley. But remember, there are usually their own solutions behind bad luck, and there is no need to assume that the sky is falling and pose for death as soon as we meet.
