It is recommended to choose another auspicious day! Is it better to visit the graves before or after Qingming Festival?The time for tomb sweeping on Qingming Festival is quite long. Generally, tomb sweeping can be done before or after Qingming Festival. The period of Qingming ancestor worship is very long. There are two sayings: 8 days before the 10th day and 10 days before the 10th day . These nearly 20 days are all within the Qingming ancestor worship period.However, the folk saying "early Qingming Festival, late Eleventh Day" is true, so the earlier you commemorate your ancestors on Qingming Festival, the better. It can be done one or two weeks before Qingming Festival, and don't rush it all on Qingming Festival. In addition, it is best to choose to sweep the tombs between 8 am and 3 pm. This is the time when the yang energy is high in the day, and it is the best time for us to pay tribute to our ancestors. The Origin of Tomb Sweeping on Qingming Festival[1] During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang was a popular figure in Shu. However, after his death, the imperial court did not build a temple for him. Instead, people worshipped him on the roads and fields during the Cold Food Festival. Later, the imperial court reflected on its inappropriate measures and formally offered sacrifices to Zhuge Liang in the temple of their ancestor (Liu Bei). However, the custom of outdoor sacrifices on Cold Food Festival had already been formed and evolved into everyone sweeping the graves of their ancestors. Another theory claims that the custom of sweeping graves on Cold Food Festival was formed at the same time as the Cold Food Festival in the Spring and Autumn Period, both of which were formed to commemorate the hermit Jie Zitui.[2] There is also a story circulating among the people about Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang was born in a poor family and his parents died in a plague. He and his brother buried their parents hastily and then became a monk in Huangjue Temple. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang joined the peasant uprising army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, conquered the country and became the emperor. But his parents' remains became a source of worry for him. It turned out that there were many more tombs on the hillside where his parents were buried. Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't tell which tomb belonged to his parents, so he was often depressed. A eunuch from his hometown guessed the emperor's thoughts and offered a clever plan. Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed after hearing this, and ordered that on Qingming Festival, all citizens must go to worship their ancestors and go out for an outing and sweep tombs. However, he secretly sent guards to spy on the place and found that there was only one grave overgrown with weeds on the hillside where his parents were buried, and no one swept the grave. So Zhu Yuanzhang fulfilled his wish and moved his parents' bones and buried them with great honor. Perhaps the revival of Qingming Festival has something to do with Zhu Yuanzhang.
