Why can't I get married in the first month or the twelfth month?

There is a folk saying that "you are not married, but you are not sure", which means that the first month is not suitable for marriage, and the twelfth month is not suitable for engagement. It is said that it is because marrying a daughter-in-law in the first month hinders her in-laws, and getting engaged in the twelfth month frustrates her in-laws. So in ancient times, few people would get married in the first month of the lunar calendar or get engaged in the twelfth month.

Engagement is the date when both parties end their engagement. From the perspective of geomantic omen, whenever they get engaged, they should choose an auspicious day.
