Zhaoyao (Shaking)
An old taboo against boating, crossing water, or fishing.
Zhaoyao is an inauspicious star name in old almanacs, mainly associated with water activities. Traditionally, it was believed that on days with this star, accidents or misfortune were likely in activities like boating, crossing water, or fishing, so these days were deliberately avoided when choosing dates. This reflects the ancients' reverence for natural forces and their desire to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune before undertaking risky water work through auspicious date selection.
