Things to note and avoid when moving to a new home: three things you should not bring with you

When you move to a new home, you can't just focus on having fun. According to traditional Chinese customs, there are many rules and customs to follow when moving to a new home.

Things to note and taboos when moving to a new home

1. Choose an auspicious day to move to a new home, and the time must be before noon

Choose a good date and an auspicious day, and check which day on the lunar calendar is best for moving into new house. Also be careful not to conflict with the direction, that is, the zodiac day of the family members. Try to move before noon, because the time before noon is called Yang, and the time after noon is called Yin. Try to move during the Yang period.

2. The new house needs a "fire temple"

Three days before moving in, all the lights in the house should be turned on and kept on for three days and three nights until you move in on the third day. This is called a fire temple. The meaning of lighting the fire for three days and three nights is that once the fire is lit, the family will become prosperous. On the one hand, the air starts to circulate, and on the other hand, any bad things will go away.

3. Warm up the house on the day of moving into the new house or afterwards to attract people and wealth

From the perspective of Feng Shui, it is actually a way to warm up the house, because generally no one has lived in a new house before, so people who just move in will feel cold and uncomfortable. This is because the new house lacks popularity. Therefore, inviting relatives and friends to gather at the new home can, on the one hand, strengthen the relationship, and on the other hand, it can bring together everyone's fortunes to gather popularity and increase good luck.

4. Be present when moving

Be present in person, don't just entrust someone else to help you with the move. If you move by yourself, you will know where your belongings are and they are less likely to be lost.

5. Cook the glutinous rice balls and sweet tea on the same day

On the day of moving, the stove must be lit, not left cold. You can cook something sweet, like sweet rice balls or sweet tea, and eat something sweet to bring good luck.

【Taboo for moving to a new house】

1. Avoid swearing when moving.

2. On the day of moving, family members should avoid crying, losing temper, or hitting or scolding children.

3. Avoid saying hello to others when moving.

4. Avoid taking a nap on the moving day or in the new house, otherwise you will get sick in the future.

5. On the night of moving, before going to bed, you should lie down for about five minutes, then get up and work for a while, which means "you have to get up again after sleeping". The same applies to children sleeping in a new bed. Lie down for a while, then get up, and avoid falling asleep directly, which means "you have to get up again after lying down"), otherwise they will be prone to illness in the future.

6. On the day of moving, it is advisable to boil some water in the new house and turn on electric fans to blow around the house in order to wish for good luck.

7. That night, it is advisable to cook some sweet dumplings and desserts and have the whole family eat together to express the family reunion and sweetness.

8. When moving, be careful not to disturb the "fetal god". When a woman in the family is pregnant, try not to move.

Three things you shouldn't bring with you when moving to a new home

1. Broken mirror

Generally speaking, mirrors are related to family harmony. Therefore, if you bring a broken mirror into your new home, it may lead to a breakdown in relationships among family members and increase conflicts. The couple in the new home may also easily break up because of this;

2. Old pillows

When you bring an old pillow to a new home, the atmosphere of the old house and the new home will conflict with each other, and when you sleep on it, you will naturally be easily affected. In such a situation, your health and sleep will become very poor;

3. Broken dishes

Bringing broken dishes to your new home may have a negative impact on feng shui. Generally, this may lead to problems in the family's career, and even the financial fortune may slowly slip away. After all, the dishes are what the family eats from, and if they are broken, it will be bad for the family.
