What are the taboos on July 16?

There are many taboos in July, such as not wearing clothes with your own name, not patting others on the shoulder, not whistling, not letting children, the elderly and the infirm go out at night, and so on.

/kloc-July of 0/5 is the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is a festival to sacrifice the souls of ancestors and forgive the sins of local officials.

China traditional folk festival "Mid-Autumn Festival" is also called "Ghost Festival" in the south. Some people say that the Mid-Autumn Festival is on the 14th day of the seventh lunar month. On this day, people bring sacrifices to the grave to pay homage to their ancestors, similar to Tomb-Sweeping Day's grave-sweeping. In the past, the local government also ordered Taoist priests in Taoist temples to set up Dojo for the lost souls to pay homage to the soldiers who died in battle. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, people burn a lot of paper money.

There is a folk saying: On the first day of July, the gate of hell opens, and on July 14th, ghosts run around. Yin Qi is heavier in the evenings and outdoors, especially around the Mid-Autumn Festival, especially in the evening of July 14.

Every year, from the beginning of July, Yan ordered to open the door of hell, so that the ghosts who suffered and were imprisoned in hell all the year round could get out of hell, get a short wandering and enjoy the blood of the world, and didn't close the door until July 29. People think this month is an unlucky month, neither getting married nor moving.

Since ancient times, China has had the custom of setting up Pudu in July for the sake of the peace of people and ghosts in Yin and Yang. Sacrifice is held on the first day, the second day, the fifteenth day and the last day of the ghost month in July.
