A year after the death of a relative, can the memorial service be held one day earlier or one day later?

The date of sacrifice varies from place to place. There are also some differences in time between sweeping graves for relatives who have died within one year and those who have died more than one year. The time to sweep graves needs to be in accordance with local customs.

According to tradition, some places go to the grave four days after grade three, some places go to the grave eight days after grade seven, and some places go to the grave ten days after grade ten.

Precautions:

People have been doing this in Tomb-Sweeping Day since ancient times.

Go for an outing, sweep graves and other activities. Until now, when it comes to Tomb-Sweeping Day, the first thing we think of is to sweep the grave. The purpose of sweeping graves is to pay homage to ancestors.

Zu, so Tomb-Sweeping Day's grave-sweeping time is mostly on April 4th in Tomb-Sweeping Day, but in some areas it can be advanced by 3.

The grave will be swept in ten days, but the time for sweeping the grave must not be postponed.

You don't have to visit the grave in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Except for some festivals and anniversaries, you must go to the grave. In fact, there are many auspicious days for sweeping graves on weekdays. As long as we want to visit the grave, we can choose a suitable Tomb-Sweeping Day in the Gregorian calendar to pay homage to our ancestors.

But the significance of sweeping graves on weekdays is totally different from that of Tomb-Sweeping Day. Tomb-Sweeping Day's grave-sweeping is a traditional folk culture in China, and it is also a kind of ethics, so unless absolutely necessary, it is better to go to Tomb-Sweeping Day to sweep the grave.
