Why can't we move in June? There is a folk saying that you cannot move house in June. The specific reason can be traced back to ancient times. Next, let’s take a closer look at it.

Why can't we move in June?

General Overview

There is a folk taboo against moving house in June and the twelfth lunar month, but the June mentioned here refers to the sixth month of the lunar calendar, and the reason for this can be traced back to a long, long time ago. Because the ancients believed that June was the hottest month of the year and December was the coldest month of the year. The ancients' moving was different from ours now. Not only was it a long-distance move, but every household also raised a lot of poultry. If you choose to move in these extremely hot or cold months, not only would the ancients themselves not be able to bear it, but most of the poultry would also die of heat or cold during the long journey. Therefore, the ancients would avoid moving during these two months. With the changes of the times, moving is now more convenient, and no household raises poultry, so whether we move in June or not does not have much impact on us.

Major Misunderstanding

In fact, not moving in June is not superstition, and the reasons have been explained before. However, what I want to say here is that the June mentioned by the ancients is the sixth month of the lunar calendar, and it is suitable for the actual situation of that year, so it is common sense not to move in June. In addition, in the eyes of the ancients, moving is a major event in life, so before moving, you must choose an auspicious day in advance. As for the reasons mentioned above for not moving in June, everyone should understand, so as long as we choose a good day in advance and consider the weather conditions before moving, we can move.
