When is Laba Festival? The date of Laba Festival is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month every year. The twelfth month is generally called the twelfth month in the lunar calendar. If the date falls on the eighth day, it is naturally called Laba. The ancients had the custom and tradition of worshiping their ancestors and gods and praying for a good harvest and good luck on Laba Festival. In more areas, there is the custom of drinking Laba porridge. According to Buddhist history, this day is the day when Buddha Shakyamuni attained enlightenment. It is called the "Dharma Treasure Festival" and is one of the grand festivals of Buddhism. The Laba Festival this year falls on January 5, 2017, which coincides with the Lesser Cold in the twenty-four solar terms. This day can be said to be an extraordinary one. So on such an important day, what should we do and what should we not do? What are the taboos and prohibitions of Laba Festival? Today, let Mr. Bu Yifan, the master of ink painting, tell you about it. Taboos of Laba FestivalThings suitable for Laba Festival are getting married, seeking offspring, getting married, breaking ground, traveling, opening business, signing a contract, seeking wealth, moving into a new house, governing the road, migrating, accepting wealth, offering sacrifices, praying for blessings, accepting a marriage proposal, taking up a new office, erecting pillars, putting up beams, and burying people. On Laba Festival, you should avoid building houses, constructing bridges, building dams, separating people, planting, digging canals, releasing water, repairing and building, taking in livestock, opening warehouses, buying property, and running meridians.Regarding the taboos, we would also like to remind all married women that it is not appropriate to spend Laba Festival at your parents' home. You should return to your husband's home to celebrate together. There are some unlucky sayings about this. For the sake of peace of mind, we would like to remind those who are still at your parents' home to remember to return to your husband's home to celebrate Laba Festival. The above are the various do’s and don’ts as described in the lunar calendar for the Laba Festival. I hope that all good men and women will act accordingly on this day. You should eat a bowl of Laba porridge on Laba Festival, because this day happens to be the Lesser Cold Day. The cold weather is detrimental to health, so drinking a bowl of nourishing and warming porridge is a good way to maintain health and increase yang energy. |
