What rules need to be followed?1. TimeIt is definitely not possible to do it during the day, because Yang energy is dominant during the day, and burning paper is inappropriate and has no effect; and it is also not suitable if it is too late. The deeper the night, the heavier the Yin energy. Especially at such a sensitive time as Ghost Festival, it is easy to be hit by evil spirits if you go out to burn paper too late. The best time to burn paper is just after the sun sets. At this time, the yang energy gradually fades away, and the effect of burning paper is best. However, it is not recommended to go out to burn paper after 7:30. Point 2: Location The customs regarding this vary from place to place: in some places, a brazier is placed at the door to burn paper for the ancestors; in some places, people choose to burn paper outside. The specific location should be determined according to local customs. If you choose to burn paper outside, it is best to burn some at the intersection as well. Tip 3: Draw a circle After selecting a place to burn paper, it is best to clean the ground before burning it. Remember to use the small wooden stick you carry with you to draw a circle and enclose the paper money we burn inside. However, this circle cannot be drawn as a solid circle. It would be bad if it is completely enclosed. Remember to leave an opening, and the opening should be located in the southwest direction. Tip 4: Burn both inside and outside the circle In addition to burning paper money within the circle, we'd better burn a few pieces of paper outside the circle. In traditional Feng Shui, this is the best way to appease wandering ghosts. In this way, not only will they not bring you trouble, but they will bless you instead. Tip 5: Don’t flip through books randomly When paper money is burning, we usually use a small stick to gently lift it up so that the paper money can burn fully. However, the amplitude of the flipping must not be too large so that the paper money does not become too scattered. It is best to burn it as a whole. |
