When is the best time to carve a monument in the cemetery?

When choosing the time to carve a tombstone in a cemetery, the following factors are usually considered:

1. According to the traditional culture of China, the best time to erect a monument is in Tomb-Sweeping Day, preferably three years after the death of parents. This is because it takes three years for our parents to cultivate us from birth to being able to walk independently and get rid of our parents' arms. There is a similar saying in Disciples' Rules: "After three years' mourning, you often grieve, your life changes, and there is no wine and meat. Funeral, sincere sacrifice, the dead are like life ",especially the last sentence expresses that in these three years, we should treat our dead parents like living parents.

2. Choose the right season: We also need to pay attention to choosing the right season during the time of erecting the monument.

3. Avoid conflicts: choose auspicious days according to the family numerology and the specific situation of the cemetery to avoid conflicts with the numerology of deceased relatives or monument-setters.

4. Specific time selection: there is a time in a year when you don't need to choose a date. That is, before and after Tomb-Sweeping Day, never avoid adding soil, erecting monuments and planting trees.

Generally speaking, it is best to carve a tablet in the cemetery before and after Tomb-Sweeping Day, preferably three years after his parents died. At the same time, we should avoid conflicts with other family members and choose auspicious times according to numerology and specific circumstances.
