What should Tomb-Sweeping Day pay attention to when sweeping graves?

1, the grave sweeping time cannot be too late.

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.

2, worship the order to distinguish.

When sweeping graves, they should be in 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".

3. Women should not 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.

Step 4 Reduce recreational activities

Tomb-Sweeping Day should do as little entertainment as possible that day, not to mention quarreling, making trouble, bragging, or saying something unimportant to show his respect for his ancestors.

5. Don't buy shoes in Tomb-Sweeping Day.

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.

Wrap the shoes in red paper, leave them at the door all night, and then burn the red paper the next morning.

6. Don't take photos 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.
