Why was the month of December called the root of the month?

You have noticed that in December, we all heard the words "months of honey - careful door". But what kind of root is it? Why is it called December as the "month of honey" but not the month of . wealth?

"Secret" is what?

In fact, there is no root in the world called "tuber ", is it just a certain thing that is grafted with the word "honey" , like "potato" honey only.

Why isn't it a turnip month?

And my secret is actually the Sino-Vietnamese word, in which "Cu" means to blame and consider. The ancients used to say "close observation" - that is to control according to the way they say today.

The "secret" is used in "confidentiality," meaning confidentiality, not disclosure. So, " root" here means "careful observation" - careful control.

Why is December a "month of secrecy"?

The cause is also because this is the most likely to be stolen . December is the month of the Lunar New Year, everyone is busy with their heads, having to go back often, staying up early . so often falling into a tired state, and especially extremely sleepy.

The moment people let go of everything to sleep, sometimes forgetting to lock the door, this was the perfect time to steal it.

At this point, just by being done, many people are willing to let go of everything to sleep well, sometimes even forgetting to lock the gate, lock the door, collect furniture .

And in the situation of "bandits ward" also operating at full capacity to have a warm New Year, the theft is completely understandable.

Therefore, every December, people often remind each other carefully to prevent theft.

Therefore, in ancient times, officials at all levels kept coming in December to remind people to be careful, to strengthen "honey root" to prevent theft.

Besides, "month of honey" is also the month many people think that it is often bad luck, or "fly by the wind". It is not so difficult to understand when this is the time of partying to increase, the young people "drink all" and the driver can meet the painting. Not to mention dry weather at the end of the year is also more likely to explode.
