Understand the customs and taboos during Tet holiday to be able to celebrate Tet with peace of mind and welcome the lucky things of the year of At Ty with relatives and friends.
No debt payment during Lunar New Year
According to the ancients, if you owe money during Tet, the God of Poverty will always be by your side, causing you to lose money and have bad luck in the new year. Therefore, if you have borrowed money from others in the past or are still in debt, it is best to pay it all off before Tet. This will not only help you reduce the pressure of favors but also bring good luck in the new year.
Avoid speaking harshly and arguing with others.
Tet is a good day for families to reunite and care for each other, so we should avoid bad words and angry looks. Since we are celebrating the New Year, we should say more good things and do more good things. The saying “harmony brings prosperity” is indeed very reasonable.
Avoid giving odd numbers of gifts
In traditional culture, when giving gifts, it is better to use even numbers rather than odd numbers. Because even numbers also have a beautiful meaning of wishing for “good things to come together”.
Avoid breaking things
Everyone has heard countless warnings from elders not to break things during Tet, because there have been old sayings like “breaking wealth” and “breaking luck”. Therefore, while you are very careful when using dishes and other utensils on normal days, you must be even more careful during Tet.
If it breaks, you should quickly say "May you have a safe year" to ward off bad luck.
Avoid touching or using sharp objects
Traditionally, sharp objects such as scissors, sewing needles, and nail clippers are thought to “cut off” wealth and luck, so it is believed that it is best not to cut hair or nails during the Lunar New Year.
Another saying is that if you touch less sharp objects, you can avoid “bloody disasters” and keep your body safe and healthy in the new year!
Limit seeing a doctor when injured or sick
Tet Nguyen Dan is considered a good time to have a happy family reunion dinner and go out to celebrate the spring. However, first of all, you must have a healthy body to be able to eat and have fun.
So if you get sick or go to the doctor during the Lunar New Year, you will always feel unlucky and it will affect your good mood. Of course, if you really feel unwell and need medical treatment, do not delay in seeking medical help.
Do not take things from other people's pockets
The ancients believed that taking things from a pocket (including taking things from other people's pockets, taking things from your own pocket) means money has been taken away, which means "money leakage". Therefore, you should think carefully before approaching, do not do it arbitrarily to avoid affecting your fortune.
Do not clean up or take out the trash before the 5th day of Tet.
According to folklore, the God of Wealth will be at home during the Lunar New Year. Therefore, if you clean and take out the trash during this time, you will sweep the God of Wealth out of your house.
