As the saying goes, "Men are afraid of August and women are afraid of the twelfth lunar month". Why do you say that?

Speaking of rural proverbs, many rural elderly people almost come with their mouths open. Although these rural old people may not have received much education when they were young, the proverbs they said are often thought-provoking and full of profound meaning.

Nowadays, there are more and more leftover men and women in rural areas, and blind date on holidays has become a "landscape" in rural areas; Often before the blind date, the rural elderly will say such a sentence, "Men are afraid of August and women are afraid of the twelfth lunar month". Why do you say that? Does the ancestor's words make sense? The answer is actually very simple!

In traditional culture, men count as "yang", and August is the hottest time of the year, with the highest yang. If a boy is born at this time, he can't bear such a strong "yang" and will experience many ups and downs in his life.

In the same way, women are yin, and the twelfth lunar month is the coldest period of the year, and the yin is the most prosperous; Girls born at this time can't stand this kind of "cold yin" and will have a bad influence on their lives.

Why do rural elderly people say that "men are afraid of August and women are afraid of the twelfth lunar month"? One of the main reasons is the influence of traditional customs. One of the main reasons why a man and a woman can get together is that "the door is right."

In ancient rural areas, if a man was born in August, he would naturally be considered as a woman born in the twelfth lunar month. If two people get together, their marriage will be unhappy.

To sum up, the statement that "men are afraid of August and women are afraid of the twelfth lunar month" is actually not credible if it is "the baby is born"; If it is a "blind date", it is not credible; The last statement about "manual labor" is its original meaning!
