What does it mean to break ground in the yellow calendar?

In the yellow calendar, breaking ground means breaking ground for burial.

It is different from the "ground breaking" of ordinary buildings. In other words, "breaking ground" belongs to the yin house, and "breaking ground" refers to the yang house. Now it has been abused in society, so we must distinguish it when choosing the date.

Breaking ground, breaking ground, is a geomantic term, and there are differences, but yin and yang are different, so there can be no mistakes. The most important thing in choosing a date for geomantic omen is Yin and Yang, which are different and cannot be confused. This is not as simple as a joke. Break ground, break ground, which means digging.

However, it is customary to take banquets and separation of yin and yang. Building a grave is called a yin house, and the house where Yang people live is called a Yang house. After death, people are called Yin people. Digging a grave and building a grave is called breaking ground, and building a house with soil is called breaking ground. Strictly speaking, Yin and Yang are not chaotic. Generally speaking, it is ok to break ground, but it is absolutely impossible to break ground by digging artificial houses.

Pay attention to the restoration of the tomb:

1. It is very important to erect a monument and stand upright. Every grave has an orientation. If the monument is not erected, future generations will not know the sitting posture and orientation of the tomb, especially the mound tomb in the north. It is common not to know the sitting posture of the tombstone for a long time, which makes it impossible to choose the date according to sitting on the mountain when repairing the grave.

Generally speaking, it is required to be 100 paces away from the grave to borrow soil. Be careful not to dig too deep. If subsidence and cracks are found around the grave, they must be repaired.

3. Some people will choose to build graves in Tomb-Sweeping Day and do so in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Although there are no taboos, they can only do so in the years when the mountains are profitable.
