Introduction: The Ghost Festival is an important traditional festival, and there are things to note during the Ghost Festival. So what should we pay attention to during the Ghost Festival, and what are the taboos before and after the Ghost Festival?

If you want to know more about the auspicious and inauspicious days in the seventh month of the lunar calendar in 2019, please follow Mr. Shuimo’s website.What should we pay attention to during the Ghost Festival?Notes on the Ghost Festival: Do not hang wind chimes on the bedsideBecause wind chimes will attract evil spirits; and I don’t play with Ouija boards. Don't plant banyan trees in front of your house as they can easily attract ghosts. Also, don't hang wind chimes in the house. Don't play with Ouija boards or visit temples, so as to reduce the possibility of being possessed by ghosts. Things to note during the Ghost Festival: Night tour. Avoid going to the wilderness or remote places at night, as people with weak horoscopes are afraid of running into their good brothers. Notes on the Ghost Festival: Call people by their names. Do not wear clothes with your name embroidered on them at night to avoid being possessed by your soul. It is also best to avoid calling others by their full names, otherwise if the good brothers (a respectful name for ghosts in the Fujian and Taiwan folks) hear it, they will take the opportunity to take away his soul. At the same time, if you hear someone calling your name, do not turn around or respond immediately. Notes on the Ghost Festival: Don’t pat people on the shoulders. From the perspective of spiritualism, there are three fires on a person's body, one on the head and two shoulders. Therefore, during the Ghost Month, it is best not to pat others' heads and shoulders casually, so as not to extinguish the fire on their body and give your good brothers an opportunity to take advantage. Notes on the Ghost Festival: Do not whistle. When passing by a cemetery, you should keep repeating "Sorry to bother you!" silently and remain solemn and not whistle to show respect to your good brothers. Things to note during the Ghost Festival: Do not go swimming in dangerous waters. According to legend, "water ghosts" will look for people to be scapegoats so that they can be reincarnated. Notes on the Ghost Festival: Do not steal the offerings. The Zhongyuan Festival is a festival for worshipping ghosts. If you compete with ghosts for food, you may face bad luck. What are the taboos before and after the Ghost Festival?Taboos before and after the Ghost Festival: Don’t pat others on the shoulderThis taboo is related to folk customs. People believe that every person has three fires on his or her body, gathered on the shoulders and the top of the head, which will keep ghosts away. Taboos before and after the Ghost Festival: Don’t step on ghost paper Ghost paper is a sacrifice to ghosts. When it is burned, ghosts will gather nearby to pick it up. If you step on or jump around while burning ghost paper, it will hinder their movements. The ghosts will be angry and will naturally do something bad to you. Taboos before and after the Ghost Festival: Don’t hang clothes out to dry at midnight Wet clothes are prone to stray radio waves sticking to them, making it difficult to get rid of them. In the ghost month when ghosts are everywhere, hanging clothes out in the middle of the night is like setting a trap to catch ghosts. If it doesn't bother you, who else will it bother? Taboos before and after the Ghost Festival: Taboos during menstruation. People believe that women are unclean during their menstrual period and therefore should not be present to watch events such as construction or sacrifices, in order to avoid offending the gods and causing misfortune or preventing the construction from proceeding smoothly. Taboos before and after the Ghost Festival: Don’t say the word “ghost” On the day of Zhongyuan Festival, ghosts come out in droves and are everywhere, especially the scene of the ceremony, which is definitely filled with ghosts. Taboos before and after the Ghost Festival: Avoid celebrating birthdays at midnight People born in July are a bit pitiful. When they celebrate their birthdays at night, there will probably be some unfamiliar "people" singing Happy Birthday together. It is better to celebrate during the day.
