There are many things to pay attention to when setting up a monument, and we should also be careful not to touch all kinds of taboos in the process. First of all, the position is related to good or bad luck, so the position cannot be arbitrary when erecting a monument. In addition, the size of the monument, the distance of the monument, and what words are written on the monument are all exquisite. Please see the introduction below.

First of all, the importance of setting up a monument lies in choosing a date. Setting up a monument is also about auspicious days, so it's best to ask a master who knows Feng Shui to help us look at it and calculate it in combination with the family's birth date, zodiac and other factors. When choosing the date of feng shui, there is a period of time in a year when you don't need to choose a date. One of the time periods is adding soil, erecting monuments and planting trees before and after Tomb-Sweeping Day. For the grave, all things about haunted houses are always avoided, which is why people concentrate all things about haunted houses in Tomb-Sweeping Day.

Pay attention to the size of the monument when placing it. It shouldn't be too high or too short. Generally it should not be too low, but the abdomen is too high and the neck is too high. Not as high as possible. It better match the cemetery. Ordinary people's graves are not too big. Tall monuments standing in front of caves will put pressure on graves, but will affect the future of future generations, and future generations will not prosper. Tombstone shape, rectangular, regular, not too narrow or too wide. If the tombstone is short and wide, people will be short and fat. And these are all things that need attention.

There are many things to pay attention to when setting up a monument, and there are also many things to pay attention to in the inscription. This must be made clear. Generally, stone tablets are engraved with the owner's name, year of birth and year of death, and besides this information, there are also the names of the people who set up the monument (usually descendants) and the date of setting up the monument. The inscription must be concave, not convex. Secondly, the number of words should be over the ecliptic. The ecliptic originated from Taoism in Zhang Ling coincides with the date of 12. According to calculation, the single digits of the total number of words are 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 9.

Furthermore, the font should not be running script or cursive script, but solemn Wei Bei, official script and regular script. But it also depends on local customs and the habits of stone carvers. If tombs are to be built, most of them must have epitaphs. Epitaphs are generally engraved with the name, industry, achievements, year of death, the name of the person who built the monument and the relationship with the deceased. Writing an inscription should be full of respect and affection for the deceased. And these can be decided according to your own mind.

After the tombstone is erected, pay attention to protection. When you have time to pay homage, you should pay attention to cleaning up the weeds and trees around the tombstone. Monuments should not be crooked, bird droppings should be wiped clean, and cracks should be repaired or replaced.
