When Qi and blood are abundant, they can be transformed into essence and stored in the kidney. Hence, there is a saying that "essence and blood have the same origin". Therefore, excessive desire will harm the body, especially having sex on the Nine Poisonous Days when the Yang Fire is hyperactive. It will not only harm the body but also affect personal fortune. Today, let’s explore with you the days when Chinese people are most taboo about having sex.

It is taboo to have sex during thunderstorm

In ancient times, people regarded thunder as the voice of gods. There is an old saying: "When thunder is about to sound, those who do not abstain from sex and do not correct their appearance will give birth to children who are not perfect (with imperfect facial features and insufficient six sense organs), and there will be disasters, etc." Therefore, having sex during thunderstorms is against the will of heaven and committing lust, which offends the gods and is likely to bring bad luck and reduce happiness and longevity. For this reason, in the eyes of the older generation, and among some people who believe in traditional folk concepts, it is taboo to have sex during thunderstorms.

Yuexu refers to the few days before the "first quarter moon" in the lunar calendar and astronomical calendar. Rixu refers to the days when changes in heaven and earth cause gusts of cold wind and heavy rain. If you have sex during these time periods, the changes between heaven and earth will be large, which is not good for your health. Having sex on such days can easily affect your health fortune.

No sexual intercourse for the first seven days

The first seven days are funeral days. According to folk customs, during the seven days after a person's death, the deceased does not know that he or she is dead and will wander around the house or the places he or she loved during his or her lifetime. According to religion, sexual intercourse between men and women is considered unclean. Therefore, when someone in the family dies, it is not advisable to have sex within the first seven days to avoid contaminating the deceased’s spirit or dirty aura, unless the deceased is not a family relative.

No sex on the Nine Poison Days

The Nine Poisonous Days refer to the fifth, sixth, seventh, fifteenth, sixteenth, seventeenth, twenty-fifth, twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh days of the fifth lunar month every year, commonly known as the "Nine Poisonous Days when Heaven and Earth are in Harmony." In addition, it should be specially pointed out that the fourteenth day of the lunar calendar is the day when heaven and earth meet, plus the nine poisonous days mentioned earlier, there are ten days in total. During these ten days, it is taboo to have sexual intercourse. The fifth month of the lunar calendar is also known as the "poison month" in folk customs, and the nine poisonous days in the poisonous month are the most harmful days for your health, depleting your energy and essence, so you should avoid having sex. The ancients usually drank realgar wine and inserted mugwort to ward off evil spirits and bad luck during these days.
