How about burning incense and praying at the vernal equinox?

1, China has had the custom of offering sacrifices to ancestors in this solar term since ancient times, and at the same time, it will light incense and burn paper money to convey the wishes of ancestors, so it is very appropriate to do this. However, this year's vernal equinox calendar shows that burial is forbidden, and ancestors can be worshipped at home until Tomb-Sweeping Day visits the grave.

2. First of all, we should prepare a proper amount of paper money, not too much, otherwise there is the possibility of devaluation, and not too little, otherwise our ancestors will not receive enough, and they will be very lonely in the hell. Secondly, we should buy paper money according to local regulations. Some places think that the color of paper money cannot be Tai Su, while others do not recommend dark color. Common ones are golden yellow and so on. Don't make a noise when you burn paper money, because it is a sign of disrespect for your ancestors. You can whisper your wishes, such as praying for family safety. If possible, you can bring your own stove to prevent it from being blown out by the wind If there is a designated place to burn, you can't light it in front of the grave for fear of leaving a fire hazard.
