How to sweep tombs and worship ancestors correctly?

I believe everyone is familiar with ancestor worship, but not everyone knows how to sweep tombs and worship ancestors correctly. The correct way to sweep tombs and worship ancestors is as follows: The order of sweeping tombs and worshipping ancestors must first be determined according to seniority, and those with higher seniority need to be placed in front. After the generation is determined, you need to choose a suitable time to worship your ancestors.
After the time for ancestor worship is determined, it is recommended to choose to sweep the tombs during the day. Tomb sweeping needs to be completed before sunset.
There are also certain rules and regulations for tomb sweeping. First of all, pregnant women and children are not recommended to sweep tombs. Secondly, it is not recommended for people in their zodiac year to visit graves. Finally, it is not recommended for people who are sick or have bad luck in the recent period to visit graves.
There are certain rules and regulations before tomb sweeping. You must take a bath the day before tomb sweeping and you cannot eat nutritious or meaty foods. Offerings mainly consist of flowers, fruits and vegetarian food, and paper money can be burned or not, depending on local regulations.
In some areas, there is a saying that one needs to fast before visiting the graves, which means that when you are about to start sweeping the graves, you cannot eat food to show courtesy and respect to the ancestors. However, it is not required in all areas, and the specific requirements need to be determined based on local customs.
