Funeral Notes

【Attendees at the funeral】
——Keep a positive mind, do not speak, think or look at random things, and do not discuss the deceased.
——No chatting is allowed during the ceremony.
- Do not wear brightly colored clothing.
——The amount of funeral gifts should mainly be in odd numbers.
——When going to the toilet, please say "restroom" or "toilet", and do not say "dressing room" because the dressing room is a place for the deceased to put on makeup.
——Pregnant women should avoid attending funerals as much as possible. If absolutely necessary, they should tie a red cloth around their waist to avoid bringing bad luck to the fetus.
——After attending a funeral, walk around crowded and lively places first to avoid bringing bad things home.
——Towels brought back from a funeral can be washed with water and then dried in the sun before use.
【Family of the deceased】
——During the mourning period, you should not visit other people’s homes, as this will bring bad luck to that family.
——While in mourning, try not to watch TV, play games, etc. at home. It means not to have a lively party.
——The lights in the home and the candles in the funeral hall should be kept bright to light the way and pray for the deceased.
——If there are insects or animals in the house during the funeral, they should not be killed or driven away, because they may be coming to lead the deceased.
——The bereaved family should give some red envelopes to the magicians or Taoist priests who come to help to get rid of the bad luck.
——When eating, do not shout at everyone to eat. Those who are hungry can just go and eat by themselves.
——If there are gods worshipped at home, cover them with red paper to avoid being hit.
——Immediate family members are not allowed to have their hair cut or shave, and their descendants must wear mourning clothes within 100 days.
- If the deceased has passed away for less than one year, you must obtain the other party's consent before attending a festive occasion
【Funeral Outsider】
——Normally, avoid wearing a white towel on your head.
- Do not sleep in the hall with your feet facing outwards, as this is how coffins are generally placed.
——When eating, do not stick the chopsticks directly into the rice. This is the way to pay respect to the deceased.
——Do not send letters in all-white envelopes, which is the way to send obituaries.
- Do not point at other people's coffins, mourning halls, or caskets with your hands, as this may cause bad luck due to disrespect.
——It is not recommended for brides and pregnant women to attend the funeral.
