Can I travel on the first day of the first lunar month?

Generally no one travels far on the first day of the first lunar month, because it is the first day of the Lunar New Year and is a time for family reunions.

In ancient times, there was also a saying that "you can't go out on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month": on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, the door between the human world and the spiritual world will be opened, and people will go to temples to burn incense on these two days. , some Buddhist activities will also be held in the temple, because the door to the spiritual world is open, and the wishes made in these two days will lead to the spiritual world and be heard by Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.

Why you can’t go out on the first day of the new year: 1. On the first day of the new year, every family must burn incense to wish the ancestors a happy new year. If you go out, you are afraid of offending the filthy atmosphere of the ancestors. 2. Chinese people attach great importance to the first day of the Lunar New Year, which means omens for the year, so there should be no accidents. If there is an accident, it means that the year will not go well. So they all hid at home. 3. There is a popular saying among the common people, such as "Go out at 369 and come home at 258". It is good to seek good words and be happy. People also believe that it is not advisable to go out on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, which is somewhat scientific. On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, the moon phases show two extremes, which makes the sea abnormal, let alone people. It is said that the blood circulation and mental activities of people on the first and fifteenth day of the junior high school are significantly different from those on other days. There are more car accidents and accidents on these two days than on other days.
