What do you mean, you can't go to the solstice in winter?

The solstice in winter means that everyone is reunited at home, so try not to go to other people's homes and disturb their reunion.

On the solstice of winter, there is a folk saying that "it's not surprising that people pass by people's doors on the solstice of winter, so it's not surprising to lift their feet gently", which means that people will not visit them easily on the solstice of winter, even if they pass by people's doors, they should not be too loud. Of course, this is an exaggeration, and it doesn't really mean that you have to stand on tiptoe when you pass someone else's house. It just means that everyone is reunited at home on the solstice of winter, and outsiders try not to visit other people's homes and disturb their reunion on this day.

In addition, on the solstice of winter, many people are busy offering sacrifices or paying homage to their loved ones. Some of them may have just returned from the sacrifice site. If they visit other people's homes, they will be dissatisfied. Because the people who just came back from the sacrifice may be contaminated with some bad things. If they go to other people's homes, these bad things will attach to other people's homes and bring bad luck to them. Therefore, the winter solstice is taboo, and it is even more taboo for people with filial piety to visit.
