It is taboo to go to the tomb during the Qingming Festival, and what is the importance of going to t

Nothing to worry about. It is a traditional and grand spring festival of the Chinese nation, which belongs to a kind of cultural traditional festival that chases the distance cautiously, respects the ancestors, and promotes filial piety. There are many customs of Qingming Festival, all over the country due to different regional cultures and there are differences in the content or details of customs, although the customs are not the same, but sweeping the tomb to worship the ancestors, walking is the common basic theme of etiquette.

Qingming Festival is not only a solemn day for sweeping tombs and worshiping ancestors, but also a joyful festival for people to get close to nature, go out to play, and enjoy the fun of spring. Going to the grave to worship ancestors is to remember the ancestors of their family, and it is also the inheritance of family filial piety. Because the ancients paid attention to "filial piety first", the descendants should be filial to the ancestors, and the grave burning paper and sweeping the tomb is the performance of the descendants to the ancestors.

Folk proverb: "March Qingming rain, every household to the ancestral grave", the grave is to worship their ancestors, if the ancestral tomb to bring outsiders, is disrespectful to the ancestors. Because outsiders are not members of their own family, they cannot reflect the cohesion of the family and the inheritance of filial piety, which is not in line with tradition.

Moreover, outsiders have no reverence for their ancestors, but regard going to the grave as a ritual.

When going to the grave, it is best to go between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., because this is the time of the day when the yang energy is more vigorous, which is beneficial to oneself.

When you go to the grave, you will have an iron shovel, and when you arrive at the cemetery, you should go around to see if the ancestors' graves have collapsed due to the washing of rain, or rat holes, etc., if there is any, you should repair it in time, dig the soil from other places, and repair the collapsed place, which is considered to repair the residence of the ancestors. Then paper money is pressed on the top of the tomb, so that others can know that the tomb has descendants.

Pressing. After placing the offerings and burning the incense and candles, before burning the paper money, draw a circle on the ground, draw the paper in the circle, and leave a mouth facing the ancestors' graves (some places leave a mouth facing the southwest direction), so that the ancestors can go in and take it. I also threw a few pieces of loose paper money outside the circle for those lonely souls and ghosts who have no descendants to enjoy.

Burn paper. When you go to the grave to burn paper, you must watch the paper money burn before you can leave, which is also a respect for your ancestors. At the same time, it is also to prevent the burned paper money from being blown to the side by the wind, so as not to lead to dead grass and other losses.

Do not wear red and purple.

You can't wear red and purple to the grave during the Qingming Festival, and I believe that everyone will not wear such clothes to participate in such activities.

Outsiders should not participate.

It is taboo to participate in tomb sweeping as an outsider during the Qingming Festival, and it is easy to cause unnecessary trouble. After all, Pei Lead is not a family, and their blessings are also different, which may cause disorder in the aura, leading to unharmony and bad luck.

Avoid if you are in poor health.

If a person is in a state of illness or weakness, it is best not to participate in the tomb sweeping activities, because such a person is in a state of general fortune and is very likely to incur bad luck.

The grass at the head of the grave must be trimmed.

Plants that grow on the grave must be removed, and they must not be allowed to grow out of the climate. This is the most important point, but you must know that the so-called tomb sweeping is to let you clean things that are not conducive to the cemetery, and the grass and trees on the grave will cause harm to the members of the family, including luck and health, which are greatly detrimental.

Do not scold and criticize the ancestors.

After the tomb sweeping is completed, someone takes the child to go, maybe it was solemn at first, and as soon as it is over, it starts to fight and laugh. This is to be noted, to know that the cemetery is after all a place where the yin spirit sleeps, and laughing and scolding will disturb the yin spirit, which is a great disrespect, and may lead to revenge, and it is even more undesirable to criticize the ancestors of the deceased, if you pass by someone else's cemetery, it is a blasphemy to judge the deceased.

1. It is generally recommended to sweep the tomb between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. during the Qingming tomb. The reason is that the yin energy in the cemetery is very heavy, and between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. is the time when the yang energy is at its fullest, which can suppress those yin qi. The time of tomb sweeping during the Qingming Festival is before and after the Qingming Festival, and there are differences in various places.

Now, I usually go to visit the tomb on the day of Qingming.

2. Pregnant women should avoid sweeping tombs, and pregnant women should avoid tomb sweeping activities during the Qingming Festival. It means that rushing into the coffin is disrespectful to the ancestors, and it is also bad for the body of the fetus and the pregnant woman. This is not only the influence of yin qi, from other aspects, the Qingming season is very crowded, for the safety of the fetus, it is not recommended for pregnant women to participate, and the weather and surrounding environment of tomb sweeping are not conducive to the health of pregnant women.

3. Outsiders should not participate in other people's tomb sweeping, folk tradition: it is best not to accompany non-family members to go to the tomb to sweep and worship, because people of different ethnic groups are not a family after all, and their blessings are also different, which may cause disorder of aura, leading to unharmony and bad luck. Of course, this is not the case if you are participating in a public festival.

4. Do not wear red and purple, and it is taboo to wear red and purple to go to the grave on Qingming Day, and it is recommended to wear plain clothing.

5. Avoid scolding, criticizing the ancestors, the cemetery is a solemn and solemn place, do not make loud noises, play and joke, etc. You must know that the cemetery is a place where the yin spirit sleeps after all, and laughing and scolding will disturb the yin spirit, which is disrespectful, and it is even more undesirable to criticize the ancestors. When there is a grave on the side of the road, walking or standing, you should be respectful and respectful.

During the tomb sweeping process, the gravel should not be disturbed too much, so as not to affect the surrounding environment.

6. People who are in poor health try to avoid sweeping tombs, a person who is in a state of illness, or a weak state, or who has been unlucky recently, and everything is not going well, it is best not to participate in tomb sweeping activities, because such people are in a state of overall fortune downturn, and it is very easy to incur bad luck.

7. Do not take photos in the cemetery of the ancestors, pay attention to taking pictures when sweeping the tomb, and there are gods in the three feet of the head. Whether it is a group photo of the grave sweeper himself, or a group photo of the grave sweeper and the cemetery, it is even more taboo to take pictures of other graves in the camera. Casual photography may attract a bad aura, there is a possibility of imbalance between yin and yang, and it will damage personal fortune.
