Can I go out on the fifth day of the first month? How about going out on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year?

It is best not to go out on the fifth day of the lunar new year. This day is the day of breaking five. Every household will hold a sacrifice at home to welcome the arrival of the god of wealth and pray for prosperity and avoid bad luck in the coming year. It is recorded in ancient books. The Chronicle of Yanjing says that the fifth day is called "breaking the fifth day", and women are not allowed to go out to cook with raw rice. On the sixth day, Princess, your Lord and eunuchs exchanged greetings. The newly-married woman also returned to mothering on the same day, and the merchants gradually began to trade.

On the other hand, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, there is a custom of sending five poor people, including wisdom, learning, life, literature and friendship. Going out on this day is easy to get infected with these five poor people and is not suitable for going out.

Solemnly declare: the answer is for reference only, please don't be blindly superstitious.
