The wind and rain in June, drop by drop, hit the earth in midsummer. Light puffs of rain and mist dance across the earth. The fortune teller website takes you to appreciate every day of the sixth lunar month of 2018.

Can a daughter who got married on June 6, 2018 go back to her parents’ home?

June 6th is known as the "Return to Mother's Home Festival" in southern Shanxi. Legend has it that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Hu Yan, a minister of Jin, was so arrogant that he angered his relative Zhao Shuai to death. One year the State of Jin suffered a disaster, and Hu Yan went out to distribute grain. He promised to return home on June 6th to celebrate his birthday. The son-in-law decided to take advantage of Hu Yan's birthday celebration to assassinate his father-in-law in order to avenge his father's death. When the daughter learned about this, she rushed back to her parents' home to report the news. When Hu Yan returned from distributing grain, he saw the suffering of the people and regretted not listening to the advice of his relatives and hated himself for having done something wrong. Not only did he not blame his son-in-law, he also publicly admitted his previous mistakes. From then on, on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, Hu Yan would bring his daughter and son-in-law back home for a reunion. It was spread to the common people who followed and it became a custom. In some places, on June 6th, married girls, young and old, have to go back to their parents' homes to rest in the summer. “On June 6th, invite Auntie”, also known as “Auntie’s Day”, seems to have a certain connection with this legend.

What are the taboos on June 6, 2018?

Watermelon purchase prohibited <br /> Starting from the first day of June, watermelon purchase is the exclusive privilege of families with funerals. In addition to watermelon, the "five fruits" used for worshipping across the bridge: peach, plum, lychee, grape, and kumquat are also prohibited.
It is forbidden to go out at night <br /> In the nights before liberation, the streets and alleys were empty. After liberation, superstition was dispelled and the streets gradually became lively. But there are still people who insist on not going out on at least the fifth night of the New Year, especially children with weak foundation.
It is forbidden to visit relatives and friends’ homes <br /> Similarly, during this period, if there is no worship task at home, no relatives or friends will visit.
It is forbidden to make or eat rice cakes <br /> Families that have worship tasks must make Qiaoban rice cakes and "five rice cakes and five banquets", namely long rice cakes, round rice cakes, bean cakes, corner cakes, and round rice cakes, for worship in front of the spirit. Among them, Qiaobanguo is very particular. It requires 3.6 jin of rice to be pounded into small pieces, divided into seven portions, and made into the shape of shoe soles. It is then stacked into the shape of dominoes during worship. After worshipping, the food must be eaten or fed to pigs before noon on the sixth day, otherwise it will delay the deceased’s soul from crossing the bridge.
