What does marriage mean in fortune telling?

In China's fortune-telling, a couple (or a couple-to-be) took part in an open engagement, revealed their relationship to the public, got the approval of both parents, and had sex.

After a banquet, the two formally lived together. In China, there is a very appropriate word, called the door. After going through the door and going to a different room, it is not a de facto husband and wife. Only "consummation" is called husband and wife.

Extended data:

Sociology and folklore, the establishment of marriage is based on the blood relationship between men and women; One party settles down in the other party's house to get married, forming a social combination or legal constraint of interpersonal kinship. It is usually announced in the form of a wedding.

The numerological marriage is relatively loose. Because the marriage between men and women is destiny takes a hand, a match made in heaven, and the continuation of marriage depends on providence. Therefore, as long as the two people tell the gods of heaven and earth and their parents that they can worship the gods of heaven and earth smoothly, they will formally get married.

As a unique social phenomenon in human society, marriage will undoubtedly have a great impact on individual life and destiny; It is also one of the major events in everyone's life. Therefore, we should keep a cautious and heavy attitude towards marriage. At first, as China people, marriage had strict definitions and regulations in culture, law, system and ethics.
