What are the customs of visiting your parents’ home to visit their parents’ graves during Qingming Festival?In most areas, there is a saying that married women should not return to their parents' home to sweep graves during the Qingming Festival, and the reasons are roughly the same.According to the older generation, "A daughter who is married off is like water spilled." In the past, women would take their husband’s surname after marriage, so they could no longer be considered members of their natal family. Naturally, they could not worship their natal family’s ancestors, but should worship their husband’s family’s ancestors. In addition, if a married daughter returns to her parents' home to sweep the tombs during the Qingming Festival, others will think that there are no male descendants in her parents' family. All families with sons will not let their daughters come back to sweep the tombs. Even if they want to sweep the tombs, they have to wait until their brothers and uncles have finished sweeping the tombs, or come back to sweep the tombs after the Qingming Festival. You cannot visit the graves alone; you must be accompanied by a male relative. What are the taboos during tomb sweeping on Qingming Festival?1. Avoid eating before tomb sweepingPeople usually go there early in the morning on the day of tomb sweeping, so it is not advisable to eat. If the distance is too far and one cannot bear it, one can only eat some vegetarian food to show respect for the ancestors. In addition, when visiting the graves, no food other than offerings may be brought into the cemetery, let alone eaten at the cemetery. This is disrespectful and unfavorable. 2. Avoid taking photos in cemeteries Tomb sweeping on Qingming Festival is mostly for the purpose of worshipping ancestors, so it is necessary to be respectful. There is a god above our heads. When visiting the graves, you must not take photos together or even take photos casually at the cemetery, otherwise it will attract bad things. It is very likely to cause an imbalance of yin and yang in one's own body and damage one's fortune. 3. Avoid playing or cursing in the cemetery During the Qingming Festival, families usually go to visit the graves together, and it is normal to bring children along. But tomb sweeping is a serious matter after all, and it is absolutely not allowed to be played around with. You must know that cemeteries are where the spirits sleep after all. Laughing and cursing in a cemetery will disturb the spirits and is a very disrespectful behavior that may lead to revenge. 4. Avoid criticizing graves When visiting graves during the Qingming Festival, whether you are passing by someone else's grave or the graves of your ancestors, you should show respect and be careful where you step. Never step on other people's graves or the flowers and plants in the cemetery, or comment on other people's graves, otherwise it will be regarded as blasphemy, and you will encounter bad things and go home in trouble.
