Which birth month are ghosts most afraid of?Ghosts are most afraid of people born in the fifth month, ninth month and first month of the lunar calendar.The reason why ghosts are most afraid of people born in the first month of the lunar calendar The first day of the first lunar month is the most important traditional festival in China. It is a particularly grand day for the people, representing the farewell to the old and the welcome to the new, and the renewal of all things. Although the season is usually in the cold winter, it is often regarded by the people as a transition from winter to spring, and also from yin to yang. Therefore, on this day, people born in the first lunar month are considered to have strong yang energy. The reason why ghosts are most afraid of people born in the fifth month of the lunar calendar Because the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month was believed by the ancients to be the day with the strongest yang energy in the year, people born in the fifth month of the lunar calendar have very strong yang energy, especially those born on the Dragon Boat Festival. People with strong yang energy are generally stronger, which makes ghosts afraid of them. The reason why ghosts are most afraid of people born in the ninth month of the lunar calendar Because the ancients believed that the number "nine" was very auspicious, and "nine" is also a yang number, so people born in the ninth month of the lunar calendar naturally have strong yang energy. People born in the golden autumn of September are generally talented and intelligent. They are like being blessed by the star of literature, possessing intelligence and vigorous energy. Ghosts are most afraid of such people. They are wise and highly alert. It is not wise to go against them, so ghosts will naturally be afraid of them. |
