A: "Eight Monkeys, Nine Tigers, Wandering the Mountains" is actually acceptable. Here, "eight" refers to the eighth lunar month, and "nine" refers to the ninth lunar month.
According to the "Fang Yue" (Foul Month) mnemonic, if a monkey is born in the fourth lunar month and a tiger in the tenth lunar month, it is considered "foul." However, "eight monkeys, nine tigers" do not fall into this category. Therefore, "eight monkeys, nine tigers, wandering the mountains" is considered good.
The mnemonic for "Foul Months": First month - snake, hiding in the cave; Second month - rat, starving; Third month - ox, everywhere; Fourth month - monkey, roaming the mountains. Fifth month - rabbit, sixth month - dog, seventh month - pig, eighth month - horse, ninth month - sheep, tenth month - tiger, roaring in the mountain; eleventh month - chicken, perched on the rack; twelfth month - dragon, swimming in the sea.
"Foul Month" refers to the situation where the birth year and birth month conflict with each other, according to the twelve zodiac signs. If someone is born in that month, it is considered very unlucky. Locally, this is called "Foul Month." There is a traditional belief in folk culture about "Foul Month," which means that the birth year and birth month clash. Once such a clash occurs, it is generally considered harmful to the husband's father-in-law's family for men, and harmful to the wife's own family for women.
