Second, avoid wearing red, red for the evil spirits, is a strange color, easy to attract attention, love out of the night street men and women to bear in mind.

Third, quit the ghost word hanging mouth side "little ghost", "bad ghost", "ghost reason you", "so ghost trouble ah! "is a lot of people's mantra. Remember, this type of speech should not be said more, because the pronunciation of the magnetic field may touch the ghosts and monsters.

If you often put the "ghost" word hanging mouth, really want to quit. Fourth, the long corridor lights many homes have long corridors between intervals, long corridors often do not see the sun, resulting in the situation of yin and yang, is the most favorite hiding place of ghosts and monsters, so if you have a long corridor at home, remember to install a long light to enhance the yang qi, so that the ghosts and monsters do not stay away.

V. Climbing wearing jade Mountain hiking is a good holiday leisure activities, but due to the heavy moisture in the highlands, coupled with the death of many animals, corpses rotting in this, invariably strengthening the negative magnetic field. Do not want to see the "dirty things", may wish to wear some jade jewelry, which enhances the personal positive magnetic field.

Six, don't play Dish Fairy Pen Fairy Young people love to seek ***, like to play with the group Dish Fairy, Pen Fairy, so as to predict the future. In fact, so direct contact with the spirit, communication, daily life is very easy to sense the presence of "them".

Especially found near the rows of the Hall of Darkness, this kind of thing is even more taboo. Seven, gossip blocking the evil spirit Funeral parlor is the place where the deceased funeral, and filled with sad atmosphere, so the negative magnetic field is strong.

Friends living near the funeral home, it is recommended to hang a piece of gossip outside the window. Among the eight trigrams on behalf of the positive energy, positive energy, natural fear of evil into the house, living near the funeral home are not afraid.

Eight, visit the sick first worship home God If you need to go to the hospital often to visit the sick, may wish to worship God beforehand, to seek a peace of mind. If the patient is your relative, worshiping the family god is especially effective; and if the patient is a friend and not a relative, you can go to the general temple to pray for God's blessing.

Nine, live in the hotel avoid tail room to travel to live in the hotel, many people say that the tail room should not live. This is indeed well-founded, all because the tail room is usually insufficient sunshine, there is a lack of yang, and the spirit of the body most like to hang around such a dark place, so if you live in the hotel was assigned to the tail room, it may be worthwhile to change the room.

Tenth, spiritual number to avoid As for the hotel room door number also need to pay attention to, in feng shui, "two" and "five" are spiritual numbers, so the hotel room should not have "two" or "five" last number! " or "five", otherwise it is easy to attract the attention of spirits and monsters, low luck may be and "they" hit a square. In addition, often travel or go abroad to travel to live in the hotel, some to remember some taboo methods.

These actions are all meant to inform the "ghost" and ask him to go away.

Third, when you go to bed: shoes put Sleeping is best to turn on a small light can avoid the evil spirits, but also to bring their own sense of security, in addition to the shoes do not neatly placed on the bedside, the legend says that if placed neatly, then at night, "ghosts" will be dressed to go, so it is best to set the shoes chaotic or a positive and a negative. Fourth, taboos in a strange environment, it is best not to be too iron teeth or obscene language, in some hotels will be placed in the Bible or Buddhist scriptures, etc., do not because of different religions make rude behavior.

Otherwise ...... teach a few tricks to deal with ghosts 1. sleep ghosts pressured bed, approach: pillow put under the scissors ... 2. Never be curious to see people commit suicide, or the scene of a car accident or someone burning yellow paper, because the filth will enter your body, if you are the first to enter the scene of the people, then please ruthlessly say 3 times: to escape bad luck to others . Remember to hun. 3 do not step on the ground sprinkled with Chinese medicine, that is the patient invited someone to do the trick, there is a magic spell, you step on the result is that the patient is well, but you are sick, always remember. 4 If you find that you are very sick, but the hospital but the treatment is not good, and can not even find the cause, then please quickly find the Taoist priests to help, seek Taoism does not seek medical treatment, seek medical treatment does not seek Taoism. 5 If you often have the same nightmare, then please beware of small people, there will be people who want to harm you. 6 Do not stomp on the baby, everything has life, everything against nature will have to hold should, or your chances of getting pregnant is not very good, or the mother's body will become bad. 7 buy a house to be careful, many of the original address of the house is a cemetery, some of the creek, we must ask clearly, a friend of our youngest daughter inexplicably fell from the 4th floor into a vegetable.

3. folk taboos ~ ~ ~ ~ detailed real

Pregnant women moving folk taboos:

1. pregnant, the family can move?

It is best not to move in the early stages of pregnancy, because the God of the fetus is in a different direction every day, if you move easily affect the fetus; if there is a need to move, you can rely on the birth date against the calendar to choose the day, whether it is not appropriate to move? If you want to move, to see where the location of the God of Fetus, try not to hurt the pregnant woman, and avoid flashing away from the direction of the God of Fetus on that day, you can also buy a new broom, in the handle and the head of the junction of the binding of a red cloth, sweep a sweep.

2. Can not raise the hand above the shoulder or easy to miscarry?

Depending on the individual's physical condition, there are different conditions, if there is a habitual miscarriage in the family, we have to be careful. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular products and services in the world, and you'll be able to do that with the help of your own personal computer. The newest addition to the list is the newest addition to the list, the newest addition to the list, the newest addition to the list, the newest addition to the list!

3. You can't tap a pregnant woman on the shoulder?

I've heard folklore say that people have three fires, the biggest one in the head, and two small fires in the shoulders; if a person is suddenly tapped on the shoulder, it will really startle them and make them unstable. If the pregnant woman herself is weak, it is more likely to take into account the fetus, light bleeding occurs, heavy may lead to miscarriage, so the general attitude of the pregnant woman is best to pay attention to, do not do *** sex or large-scale action.

4. Living room to avoid hanging pictures of beasts?

It depends. If the picture has been placed in the living room before pregnancy, there is no need to move it, but after pregnancy, it is best not to casually install new pictures, because it may use nails, for fear of offending the God of Fetus, if you have to set up a picture, it is recommended to choose a day to see the God of Fetus's direction, the picture as far as possible to the text and feng shui paintings, which will help the pregnant woman to relax, and the formation of a better quality of the fetus.

5. Avoid the kitchen, the toilet is easy to accumulate dirty gas?

If there is no need, pregnant women try not to go to the kitchen to get kitchen knives, sharp things, in addition to the possibility of inadvertently touching the God of Fetus, if accidentally collided or so frightened, easy to move to the fetus may lead to miscarriage. As for the toilet is not an obscene gas, in fact, depending on personal hygiene habits, often clean up the change of clothes, keep ventilated, soap, sundries do not pile up on the ground, you can prevent the risk of pregnant women slipping.

6. Belly tip round, pregnant women can see the looks of birth male or female? >> Look at the mother's stomach to guess the baby's gender.

The general saying is that the pregnant woman's stomach looks like an oval, like an egg-shaped, high chances of giving birth to a boy, while the stomach like a rounded shape like a soup dumpling, the chances of giving birth to a girl, of course, this saying is the accumulation of experience, but also has its basis, but is not 100% accurate. In the past, it was customary for pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy to ask the family's nobleman (life or children and grandchildren) to open the golden mouth to say goodbye and congratulate you on the birth of a man or a woman, to give an auspicious omen; however, in the modern world, boys and girls are very much valued, after all, precious lives are to be cherished.

4. Folk taboo words which types of words

From the primitive society, people tend to believe that the language has supernatural power, so the formation of a number of mouth color and taboos.

Most of these words or taboos are related to word harmonies or word meanings. Commonly, there are the following categories: First, about the words of ghosts and gods.

Folk worship of things, such as the heavenly realm, the underworld, God only, often with a sense of awe, often avoid these words. When you have to say, you must add "master", "old master", "mother", "grandmother" to show that the The first thing you need to do is to add the words "master", "master", "mother", "grandmother" to show your respect and fear, such as God, the sender of the mother, the god of the mountain, the king of hell, the old mother of Taishan.

Suzhou people called "ghosts" for "Xu Daolao". The first one is the "Ghost", which is the name of the animal that is the most powerful in the world, and the one that is the most powerful in the world.

Folk to some animals for the spirit of good animals, such as weasels, hedgehogs, etc., called "fairy", worship very respect. Jianghu also called it Hu three masters, yellow four masters, white five masters, willow seven masters, gray eight masters.

The tiger and other vicious animals are also forbidden to speak out, calling the tiger "big bugs", the Northeast is called the tiger "mountain god", other places called the cat, big cats, Bashan son, the cat; Changsha and even because of the "rotten" and "tiger". Changsha even changed the name "curd" to "cat's milk" because "rot" harmonizes with "tiger". Folk also called the wolf as a big mouth, the old palsy, Mamahu, Zhang San, called the snake as a long worm, long long, long, small dragon, loach, said turtle fish for the turtle, group fish.

Third, on the words of disease and death.

Three words about disease and death. In folklore, minors just say "waist pain", adults will immediately say: "Children do not have a waist, do not hurt.

This is the psychological manifestation of the folk's deep secrecy about disease.

Many ethnic groups take "death" as an unlucky word, and are usually not allowed to say "death". Folk think that if they say it, they will hit the god of death and have to die.

On New Year's holidays, it is even more taboo to say "dead", dead fish, dead ducks, can be said to be "Wen fish", "Wen ducks", Wen, said its immobility. People are also taboo to say dead bodies, it is called parked corpse for "stop mourning", with "funeral" refers to the dead.

Carry dead bodies, coffins, people called "heavy", "lift heavy", so usually some places less said "lift", "lift", put the "heavy", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift", "lift". Therefore, in some places, the words "lifting" and "carrying" are not used, and the word "carrying" is said to mean "tamping". Corpse" is also known as "spirit", such as the place where the corpse is parked is called "spirit hall", the guarding of the corpse is called "guarding spirit", and the carrying of the corpse out of the grave is called "starting spirit". The first is the "Soul", which is the name given to the body of a person.

Fourth, about the shortfall, broken money and so on. Business people to profit for the purpose, the most taboo "eclipse", "fold", "consume 'and other words.

"Consumption", the business taboo, so the word consumption for "rats"; business taboo "dry", no profit, busy work for nothing, to go out of business, drink the northwest wind, so the encounter "Dry" and its harmonics must be euphemism. Therefore, when encountering "dry" and its resonance, we must euphemize it. "Counting" has the resonance of "losing", so merchants are afraid of counting coins outwardly and must count them in their arms; in Cantonese dialect, "book", "silk", "lion", "pig" have the same resonance of "losing", which has become a taboo, therefore, "Tongshu" has been changed to "Tongxu", which is the name of a book in Cantonese. In Cantonese dialect, Shu, Silk, Lion and Pig, which have the same sound as "lose", have also become taboo, so Tongshu was changed to "Tongsheng" and "Tongweng", Silkmelon was changed to "Shenggua", and "Golden Lion" was changed to "Jinlilai". The name "Golden Lion" was changed to "Golden Lilly", pig's head was changed to "Lishui", and pig's ear was changed to "Shunfeng Er".

Business taboo "etching", etching, folding the book is not auspicious, so meet etching and its harmonies necessary to euphemize, such as the South will be said to tongue "fortune", such as the tongue of the cow for the cattle to attract wealth, pig tongue for the pig to attract wealth, or called "delete", such as the pig delete, the pig's tongue for the pig to attract wealth, or "delete", or "delete". ", such as pig delete, cow delete, or called "earn head", such as pig earn head; and the north is called "door gun", "mouth" and so on. In fact, there are a lot of such words in folklore, in the final analysis, these taboo words are people's own illusion of supernatural power of a kind of negative avoidance.

At the same time, there is a relationship with the psychology of the language, which is one-sidedly summarized in people's practice: "say wolf and wolf come, say ghost and ghost come".

Samurai, butchers, strong men with thick hair, successful lifters, monks and Taoists, old people over 80 years old, newborn babies. Chinese folk taboos, in detail

Chinese people use chopsticks to eat from ancient times, ancient times also called "chopsticks", the use of chopsticks in daily life is very delicate. When we use chopsticks, the correct way to use them is to hold them in the right hand, with the thumb and forefinger pinching the upper end of the chopsticks, and the other three fingers naturally bending to hold the chopsticks, and the ends of the chopsticks must be aligned. During the process of using the chopsticks, they must be neatly stacked on the right side of the rice bowl before the meal, and after the meal, they must be neatly stacked vertically in the center of the rice bowl. But it is absolutely forbidden to use the following twelve kinds of chopsticks.

1 three long and two short: This means that before or during the meal, the length of the chopsticks will be unevenly placed on the table. This practice is very unlucky, usually we call it "three long and two short". It means "death". Because the Chinese people used to think that after the death of a person is to be installed into the coffin, after the person is installed into the coffin, not yet cover the lid of the coffin, the coffin component is before and after the two short boards on both sides plus the bottom *** three long boards, five boards together into a coffin is exactly three long and two short, so this is extremely inauspicious things.

2 immortal pointing: This practice is also extremely unacceptable, this method of holding chopsticks is, with the thumb and middle finger, ring finger, little finger pinch chopsticks, while the index finger out. This is called "cursing the street" in the eyes of Beijingers. This is because when you stick out your index finger during dinner, you are always pointing at other people, and when Beijingers stick out their index finger to point at each other, it mostly carries the meaning of accusation. Therefore, pointing at someone with chopsticks while eating is tantamount to accusing someone else, which is the same as cursing and cannot be allowed. There is also a case of talking to others and pointing at them with chopsticks during dinner.

3 Pin Chopsticks to stay sound: This practice is also not allowed, the practice is to put the end of the chopsticks in the mouth, the mouth to go back and forth to sip, and from time to time to make a sizzling sound. This behavior is considered a *** practice. It is considered a *** practice because sipping chopsticks in the mouth while eating is itself a rude behavior, and coupled with the sound, it is even more disgusting. Therefore, this practice is generally regarded as a lack of discipline and should not be allowed.

4 hit the marigold knocking cup: this behavior is seen as a beggar for food, the practice is to use chopsticks to hit the plate bowl during the meal. This is because in the past, only those who asked for food would use chopsticks to hit the food bowl, and the sound made by the chopsticks, together with the lamentations from the mouth, would make the pedestrians pay attention and give alms. This practice was regarded as a very *** thing to do and was disliked by others.

5 Chopsticks: This is a practice of holding chopsticks in your hand, acting as if no one else is there, and using them to go back and forth on the table to look for a dish, to know where to put down the chopsticks. This behavior is a typical lack of cultivation performance, and no one extremely offensive.
