Nowadays, since most people are only children, not many people are interested in this custom. So, based on the popular customs, can a married woman go back to her parents' home on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival? The arrival of the first month of the lunar calendar, which is the first month of the year, means that we have entered the new year. What should we pay attention to if we want to live a better life in the new year? Shuimoxiansheng.com’s special topic for the first month of the lunar calendar in 2019 will tell you.Can I go back to my parents’ home for the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month in 2019?Can't. 1. In some places, it is believed that if a married girl returns to her parents' home on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it will be unfavorable to her father-in-law. In fact, the specific explanation is that in ancient times, the father-in-law was the head of the family. When his daughter came back from her husband's family to visit him, if she stayed for too long, the girl's parents would think about whether her husband's family treated her well. At this time, the girl's family would blame the head of the man's family, that is, the father-in-law. 2. There is a folk saying that you should not look at the lanterns at your parents’ home on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. This is also called “hiding from lanterns”, which means you cannot go back to your parents’ home to celebrate the first lunar month. The custom of "hiding from lanterns" on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was originally a traditional custom of the Manchus. At first, it was said that on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, one should not look at the lanterns at one's parents' home, that is, a married daughter-in-law could not stay at her parents' home during the Lantern Festival. Later, it evolved into not being able to look at the lanterns at one's parents' home or at one's husband's home, and one had to hide at one's relatives' homes. Later, this custom was also spread to the Han nationality. 3. There is also a saying that a newly married daughter cannot celebrate the Lantern Festival at her husband’s home on the 15th day of the first lunar month, but must celebrate it at her parents’ home. This custom is called “hiding from lanterns.” Usually her parents’ home will hold a grand lantern-sending ceremony for her family, and then her husband’s family will receive the lanterns. The new bride will go to her parents’ home with her family to “hide from lanterns” (usually leaving on the 14th day of the first lunar month and returning on the 16th). It is said that this is meant to guide the newlywed daughter-in-law to give birth to a son soon.Are there any days when you can’t go back to your parents’ home?1. We start counting from the Spring Festival, which is the first day of the New Year. A married girl must celebrate the New Year at her mother-in-law's house. Even if she does not go back to her mother-in-law's house, she cannot celebrate the New Year at her parents' house. This is a dead rule here and must be followed. A married girl must wait until the second day of the New Year to be called back by her parents' family before she can go back to her parents' house. 2. The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Reunion Festival, but you cannot go back to your parents’ home and must celebrate the New Year at your mother-in-law’s home. 3. You cannot go back to your parents’ home on the second day of the second lunar month, the day when the dragon raises its head. 4. The 15th day of August, the reunion festival can only be celebrated at the mother-in-law's house. If a married girl spends the 15th day of August at her parents' house, the neighbors will use it as a topic of gossip, so no one dares to take the risk. 5. Winter Solstice. It is said that this day is not good for father-in-law, so on this day you must stay at home, or it is better to go to mother-in-law's house, because if you go back to your mother-in-law's house on the Winter Solstice, it will not be good for your father-in-law, so..., "smart people" all know that you can't go back to your mother-in-law's house. |
