Is it good or bad for a boy to be born on the 1st day and a girl on the full moon?

A boy born on the 1st day of the lunar month and a girl born on the full moon are believed to have a difficult and challenging life. It is even more challenging for children born on the 1st day of the Lunar New Year and on the full moon days of January and July. During these days, the spiritual energy is high, which influences the personalities and intellectual abilities of these children. However, babies born on these days are usually difficult to raise and take care of, but they are also incredibly intelligent and adaptable in life.

Why did ancient people think that way?

The reason is that the 1st day of the month is the beginning of the lunar month, when the yang energy is at its peak (referring to the strongest sunlight). Boys are naturally yang, so being born on this day signifies a strong yang personality.

The ancient people believed that boys born on the 1st day of the lunar month and girls born on the full moon would be difficult to raise and would have a challenging life. (Illustration) On the other hand, the full moon day (the 15th day of the lunar month) has abundant yin energy (as the moon is at its fullest), and girls are naturally yin, so being born on this day signifies a strong yin personality.

In terms of feng shui, the balance between yin and yang is always a prerequisite for good luck. Therefore, both being excessively yin or excessively yang is considered abnormal and not ideal.

Ancient people believed that children born on these two days would have biological changes, especially different from others. They would be difficult to discipline and raise, which would affect their future life. However, following the Five Elements theory, children born on the 1st day of the lunar month, especially in the morning, during a month of prosperous Five Elements (for example, those with the Fire element flourishing in April, May, and June), would have a favorable birth date and time, which is good for their destiny but not beneficial for achieving social balance.

So, are girls born on the 1st day and boys on the full moon difficult to raise?

According to popular belief, the moon symbolizes yin energy, which is similar to the yin nature of women. The sun symbolizes yang energy, which is similar to the yang nature of men.

The day of the full moon is the brightest and most beautiful, so the yin energy is also the most abundant. Women born on this day possess the highest level of these characteristics. Conversely, the first day of the lunar month has the dimmest moon and the yang energy is at its peak. Boys born on this night will have strong personalities. At the same time, these children also possess greater intelligence as they grow older.

Therefore, it is not only difficult to raise boys born on the 1st day and girls on the full moon but also all children born on these two days have very different and unique personalities, which can be positive or negative, instead of leaning entirely towards one side.

However, in modern times, raising children involves various factors, and people no longer attribute the difficulty of raising children to the 1st day or the full moon. Nowadays, people tend to choose auspicious days and times for childbirth or c-sections. When all is said and done, whether in the past or present, all parents ultimately hope for the well-being of both the mother and child.
