Rural rules: steps do not step on the double, marrying a wife does not meet half, meet half marrying a wife will be?

China is an ancient civilization with a long history of thousands of years, and is the only remaining one of the four ancient civilizations.

In these thousands of years of changes in the sea, China has gone through the baptism of wind and rain, but now still stands in the world's pinnacle, still be admired by outsiders, I think it should be inseparable from these precious traditional culture of China's inculcation.

Our ancestors have left us much valuable wealth, which can be said to involve many fields such as economy, culture, science and military.

And as descendants of us, in addition to constantly absorbing the valuable experience left behind by our predecessors, we also need to know more about China's history and culture.

China is a preoccupation with the unity of heaven and man, and the harmonization of yin and yang.

From the Chinese calendar to the application of various numbers all contain the mystery of the gossip and the fact that it follows the laws of nature.

For example, if you look at the chopsticks we use, you can see that the upper part of the chopsticks is rounded.

This alludes to the circle of heaven and earth.

And when we use chopsticks, we are reflecting the truth of the unity of heaven and man.

So what is the rationale for not stepping on a double on the steps and not marrying a wife at the halfway point?

Steps don't step on pairs

When it comes to this issue, it is possible that a lot of young people nowadays don't understand it very well.

In our ancient China for the steps is still very delicate.

It's height and size as well as the material used all represent the status of the user.

You can even judge the identity of the owner from the height.

And that time is not called steps, should be called the threshold.

So when it comes to the steps do not step on the double, is the number of the steps, first of all, this step is called "step stomp".

The number in the "I Ching" has spoken out of the yin and yang gossip, Yang Gua odd, Yin Gua even, that is, the odd number of Yang, even for the meaning of Yin.

In the heaven and earth is also the sky for the yang and the earth for the yin, so this odd number for the top has been y rooted, but also widely used in life.

And then when you step on the first step, because of the odd number, the foot that lands on the last step is still the foot that steps on the step for the first time, which conforms to human physiological habits, and also conforms to the concept of the cycle.

So the steps do not step on the double is also derived from this.

Most homes have three steps.

Of course, an additional topic is the material of the stone steps will also be very careful.

Ancient emperors used stone steps made of alabaster.

The white light of alabaster is blinding and majestic, which also reflects the emperor's posture.

So this step is still very delicate, not only can show the status of the owner, but also reflects the ancient pursuit of the balance of yin and yang ideas.

There is also a reflection of a family's wealth can also be reflected from the steps.

For example, in "Dream of the Red Chamber", Liu Lou Lou into the Grand View Garden, you can remember because of the different grades, that the threshold of the height is different, from which you can also see how a family's status in the local.

What is the meaning of the half of the half not married

What is the meaning of this? The half of the year means the middle of the year or the middle of the month.

In fact, there is a yin and yang gossip here.

Month is full is loss, water is full is overflow of the truth we all know, in fact, this is also from the life of common sense, they are also related.

Doesn't the full moon mean that the fifteenth moon is full? After that it starts the gradual rounding from the crescent moon.

So it all represents the cycle.

The day of marriage must be chosen to continue to complete the day, but also represents the heart of a better future of a kind of hope, you see most people will choose to get married in the sixth or ninth.

No one will choose the fifteenth, which is a month to be the wedding day, is this reason.

Of course the half doesn't just refer to the time of year, but sometimes to the parties to the marriage as well.

For example, halfway couples needless to say is the fact that there has been a marriage this situation, I think it is possible that no one will choose halfway couples.

Doesn't halfway couple mean that the other half has either been divorced or widowed, neither of which are very pleasing to the eye.

Because each partner has their own children from the original marriage, these are an existential issue for halfway couples and cannot be avoided.

For a year do not meet half married, because it is the hottest time of the year, this time to get married is also very suffer, most of the marriage will choose in the spring, that time the sun is shining, the weather or warmth, but also herald the revival of all things.

All are good expectations for the future life.

And half of the year is equivalent to the end of summer, heralding the waning of all things.

Summary

All in all, this old-fashioned tradition is present in every aspect of our lives, which is about the unity of man and nature, and the harmony of yin and yang.

All of them are in accordance with the law of development of things.

So China's profound history and culture, nourished the children of China, but also let us appreciate the beauty of China is not the same.
