Can the names of the living be red?

If someone writes a person's name in red, that person will turn against you! The phenomenon that you can't write with a red pen is one of the well-known taboos nowadays, just like a restaurant will never give you a bowl with a missing mouth, and no one will put chopsticks in it when eating. But do you know why you can't write your name in red? When will the name be written in red pen!

Why can't I write my name in red? In fact, some people may say that this is superstition, but it is actually a taboo. In ancient times, the pen approved by the emperor as a memorial was Zhu Bi. This scarlet royal pen was called Zhu Pi. It can be said that Zhu Pi symbolizes the supreme imperial power. So, you say, why can't you write your name in red pen? In ancient times, no one dared to use it. This kind of violation of royal taboos will be beheaded! In addition to Zhu Pi, there are names of condemned prisoners written in red ink. The names of condemned prisoners are written in chicken blood. The reason why the names of condemned prisoners are written in red actually means that criminals are supreme emperors and deprived of their lives, which is irreversible.

In fact, in folklore, there is also a saying that Yan Yan crossed the book of life and death with a cinnabar pen. Those who used cinnabar strokes were undoubtedly sentenced to death. Therefore, the scarlet letter generally refers to people who have died or are about to be executed, including those whose names are engraved on tombstones, and are also depicted in red pen! Now, you can't write a letter with a red pen. If you write a letter with a red pen, it means that you want to break up with it. Not only that, writing with a red pen looks like a perfect book. You can't see the perfect bloody book that often appears in TV dramas ... The folks also call it "Dan Shu is ominous"; It means you can't write a letter in red, and the red letter means breaking off diplomatic relations. If you write someone else's name in red, it is also a curse to others to die.

Usually, people who die will write their names in red, just like on a tombstone, and always draw them in red. Even death row inmates who are about to be executed write their names in red ink. For this reason, writing someone's name in red in normal life is an infringement on others. Similar taboos that are not superstitious include: chopsticks can't be inserted directly into the rice bowl (like burning incense), you can't say "death" during the New Year, you can't say "capsize" on the boat, you can't send a bell (send the final) when giving gifts, and so on. These are actually normal cultural customs, and there is nothing unscientific. Not superstitious or anything.
