Can I go out on the fifteenth day of the first month?

"You can't go out on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar calendar" is an ancient folk proverb, because in ancient times, the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first month was a day when ghosts were wide open and it was unlucky to go out. But in contemporary society, this is a superstitious statement; You can go out any day, just plan according to your own itinerary.

The Lantern Festival in Jacky is also called Shangyuan Festival. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the "Taiyi God" was sacrificed on the fifteenth day of the first month. There is a story in "Purple Tongzhi Bamboo Slips": it is bright in the sky, or the clouds are faint from Taiyi in the Han Temple to the sky. People also think that Shangyuan Festival is a day when God bless the people, so lanterns should be held at 15 o'clock in the first month to pray for good luck.
