1, avoid up and down (left and right) inversion.
Facing the gate, stand in the position where the Spring Festival couplets are posted. The first couplet is posted on the right, and the second couplet is posted on the left. So how do you distinguish between up and down links? The last word of the first couplet should be a slur (three out of four tones), and the last word of the second couplet should be a flat tone (one or two out of four tones).
2. Avoid no cross links.
Spring Festival couplets didn't have horizontal couplets at first, but later they were added. The horizontal couplet is a necessary supplement to the upper and lower couplet, which plays the role of making the finishing point. Horizontal couplets are the perfect Spring Festival couplets, otherwise it will leave regrets.
3. Avoid posting red Spring Festival couplets that have been filial for less than three years.
The old man in the family is old, and the filial younger generation can't post red Spring Festival couplets for three years. In some places, red, white and green Spring Festival couplets are posted, while in others, nothing is posted.
4, avoid posting blessings.
During the Spring Festival, someone posted the word "Fu" upside down on the door, saying it meant "Fu arrived". This is inappropriate. The blessing is already there. Why do you say "blessing has arrived"? Some experts believe that the word "positive blessing" should be used in the main area of the gate and doorway of the community, while the word "inverted blessing" can be used in the corners and remote places of the house, which is very reasonable.
5. Avoid posting too early
According to the custom, after posting the Spring Festival couplets, money at home can no longer enter or leave. Therefore, Spring Festival couplets should be posted after the family reunion on New Year's Eve. Some people are not at home for the New Year because of something, so it is not appropriate to post Spring Festival couplets early, and they can entrust their neighbors to post them.
6, avoid posting Spring Festival couplets program errors.
Stick the Spring Festival couplets outside the gate first, and then stick them in the yard. Put the gate up first, that is, let the keeper guard the gate first. When pasting the Spring Festival couplets, you should clean the dust on the lintel first, and then sweep it with a broom after pasting the Spring Festival couplets.
