Qingming was originally just a solar term name, and later became a festival to commemorate ancestors, which was related to the Cold Food Festival. Jin Wengong designated the second day of the Cold Food Festival as Tomb-Sweeping Day. Tomb-Sweeping Day originally meant grave-sweeping day, and the government of the Republic of China designated 15 days after the vernal equinox in 935 as a national holiday, also known as the national grave-sweeping day.

Matters needing attention in Tomb-Sweeping Day's grave-sweeping should not be delayed.

It is best to sweep graves between sunrise and 3 pm. Because the light is not good before sunrise, Yin Qi has not dissipated, but after three o'clock, Yang Qi gradually dissipated, and Yin Qi gradually increased, which is easy to provoke ghosts or other unclean things.

The order should be distinguished.

When sweeping graves, you should follow the order: father, mother, eldest son, eldest daughter, second son, second daughter ... and so on. If there is a sacrifice, everyone can eat it after the ancestors "enjoy".

Reduce recreational activities

On that day, Tomb-Sweeping Day did as little entertainment as possible, let alone quarreling, making trouble, bragging, or saying something irrelevant to show respect for his ancestors.

Tomb-Sweeping Day, don't buy shoes.

Tomb-Sweeping Day has a three-day holiday this year. Many people will go shopping, travel and maybe buy some out-of-season shoes, but from the custom, this is not desirable. Because shoes and "evil" are homophonic, buying shoes is equivalent to buying evil. If you bought shoes in Tomb-Sweeping Day, how do you crack them? Wrap the shoes in red paper, leave them at the door all night, and then burn the red paper the next morning.

Don't take pictures in the cemetery.

It is not good to take pictures in a cemetery or in front of an idol. Whether it's taking photos of the cemetery, taking selfies of grave sweepers or taking photos with the cemetery, we should try our best to avoid it. Don't even bring the grave into the camera when taking selfies, because the grave represents a dead person. Taking a photo with the deceased is not only disrespectful to the deceased, but also a little creepy to think about.

Women shouldn't sweep graves.

The ancients believed that women were feminine, and if they entered a gloomy grave, they might have a negative impact on their consciousness (such as being shocked); Ghosts and gods are afraid of women's menstrual blood, so pregnant and menstruating women are even less suitable for sweeping graves. In addition to being bad for yourself, you may lose the protection of your ancestors.

In ancient times, many children and grandchildren, women were essentially married or foreign. In the era of patriarchal society, it is natural to hope that ancestors can protect their men and avoid women.

Ok, please keep this information. Tomb-Sweeping Day is a traditional festival in China, representing a certain culture and history. Therefore, we should also pay attention to these customs in this festival!
