Why is it unlucky to sigh

It's unlucky to sigh, because there is an old saying that you are poor for three years at a time.

people should never sigh and often call themselves poor, or their luck will get worse and worse. Sighing is not a good habit. Old people often say that people who sigh for three years and often sigh will drive away their good luck and attract all kinds of bad luck.

People usually "sigh" in negative situations, such as disappointment, anger, depression, etc., but they also sigh at other times, such as when they are in love, relaxed or eager. Among them, "giving up" is the situation that people sigh the most. Sighing has different meanings for self and others. Usually, the sigh of others is understood as sadness, while one's own sigh may just mean "giving up".

Negative emotions such as sadness, disappointment, rejection and giving up are often associated with sighing. As Tegan said, "When the faith is denied, when the hope is abandoned, when the wish is disappointed, when the dream is lost, you realize that you have nothing and can do nothing." When a gentle dream encounters a cold reality, it will make a series of sighs.

Folk saying

1. Poverty does not add women

In ancient times, the role of women was to minimize publicity when they were young, and only after they got married could they move freely in society. Therefore, it costs a lot to raise a daughter, and it is hard for poor families to bear the dowry when they are old enough to get married. If a family is poor and has more daughters, the expenses of raising and marrying a daughter alone will be unbearable, and the family will become poorer and poorer.

2. Sleeping north

In this sentence, "going north" means the north. As we all know, the ancients always attached great importance to the direction, and geomantic omen is also an important factor affecting the direction of houses. In ancient architecture, generally speaking, it is the direction of sitting north facing south. Of course, when we sleep, direction is also very important.
