Can Tomb-Sweeping Day sweep graves and chop firewood?

You can break ground and chop wood, but you must pay attention to breaking ground;

Pay special attention to the following three points when going to the tomb on Qingming:

1, you can't borrow soil when repairing the grave. During the period of Tomb-Sweeping Day, people often add some new soil to graves, which means "repairing houses" for their ancestors in case the graves are thin and rain falls in summer. However, from the perspective of geomantic omen in Zhouyi, it is generally impossible to borrow soil from the following directions when raising soil for tombs: first, it is not appropriate to borrow soil from the direction of Prince, for example, in 20 13, the southeast direction is the direction of Prince in that year, so it is not appropriate to borrow soil from the southeast direction of graves, otherwise it may lead to unexpected disasters; Second, it is not appropriate to borrow soil from the tomb owner's head. In addition to great disrespect for ancestors, the consequences of digging on ancestors' heads are like digging on traditional heads; Third, it is generally not appropriate to borrow soil in the northwest of tombs. The reason is that the northwest is the dry divination in the Eight Diagrams of Zhouyi. On the one hand, it is a symbol of heaven, on the other hand, it also symbolizes that the ancestors of the tomb owner are also ancestors of ancestors. The unbreakable ground here reflects the reverence for God and ancestors.

2. It is necessary to be cautious for the elderly, the sick and the disabled to participate in grave sweeping. Generally speaking, people who are old and weak, children under the age of three, pregnant women, seriously ill people and people with weak willpower should not take part in Tomb-Sweeping Day's sacrificial activities. Tomb-Sweeping Day, the Mid-Autumn Festival on July 15th and the Cold Clothes Festival on October 1st are also called the three ghost festivals in China. In the numerology of Zhouyi, "ghost", also known as "official ghost" and "official killing", actually refers to "my" things, but generally speaking, those who are strong and prosperous are like grams, and have the right to control fame and fortune to achieve prosperity; The weak avoid grams, and suffer from diseases for the sake of decline, which will produce certain negative energy. Relatively speaking, if the elderly, children, patients, pregnant women and other people with relatively weak physique or poor psychological quality come to the cemetery for sacrifice, they will be infected with negative energy and will cause disaster.

Grave-sweepers should not take photos in the cemetery. From the theory of geomantic omen, the cemetery shows people negative energy fields such as passing away, death, sadness and negativity. If you take photos at random in the cemetery, these negative energies that have nothing to do with you will be hard to get rid of, because they appear in the same photo with you, and whenever you browse these photos, you will often be touched by the scene and imagination. Eventually, you may have pessimistic thoughts and lost emotions due to the long-term erosion of these negative energies, which will affect your work and life over time.
