Can I buy a mattress during the Ghost Month?

According to traditional customs, the seventh lunar month, or Ghost Month, is a period when people are advised to be cautious and avoid major changes. This includes purchasing large items such as furniture and mattresses, which are considered particularly inauspicious.

However, it is not entirely forbidden to buy a mattress during the Ghost Month. Visiting mattress showrooms, trying out mattresses, and making a purchase is perfectly acceptable. The main concern lies in the delivery and setup of the mattress. By choosing an auspicious time and following traditional customs, one can still ensure a peaceful sleep in the months to come.
