What do you need to prepare for the winter clothes burning on October 1st?

Tributes, paper money to be burned, winter clothes, silk and satin cloth made of five-colored paper, house clothes and quilts, and gold, silver and copper coins
Time to burn winter clothes: usually in the morning.
After the offerings were prepared, the family sent the children to the street to buy some colored paper, paper money, and incense foil for later use. The five-color paper comes in five colors: red, yellow, blue, white and black. It is thin and some even have cotton in the middle. After lunch at noon, the housewife cleaned the stove and gathered the family together so that they could go to the grave and burn winter clothes.

What should you pay attention to when burning winter clothes?

(1) Things sent to the deceased must be burned cleanly <br /> All clothing and paper money sent to the deceased must be burned cleanly. Only when they are burned cleanly can these papers in the world of the living be transformed into silk, cloth, houses, clothes, and gold, silver, and copper coins in the underworld. As long as there is even a little bit that is not burned out, all previous efforts will be wasted and the deceased cannot use it. Therefore, when burning winter clothes on October 1st, you must be particularly careful and meticulous. Although this action seems funny, it also reflects the living's grief and respect for the deceased and is a kind of spiritual sustenance.
(2) Burning paper at the crossroads <br /> When sending winter clothes to the Chinese, they also pay attention to burning some colorful paper at the crossroads, symbolizing cloth. The purpose is to help those lonely souls who have no one to worship their ancestors, so that the winter supplies sent to their relatives will not be snatched away by them.
(3) Burning paper cannot be delayed <br /> It must be burned on the Cold Clothes Festival or before. If the cremation is done after the first day of October, the deceased will not be able to put on his sleeves or pull up his trousers. After being born, he will wipe his nose with his sleeves when getting dressed and kick his pants when wearing them. This behavior will accompany him throughout his life.
(4) Do not burn winter clothing paper for three years.
Don’t burn winter clothing paper for three years. According to traditional Chinese customs, the first time winter paper is burned after the death of a person must be in an odd year, and the soil must be restored and a tombstone erected first. The customs in each region are different. You can burn paper, but in some areas, you are not allowed to fill the soil during the Qingming Festival in the first three years. There is no custom of not burning paper during the Cold Clothes Festival.

A person's fortune changes every ten years, so there is the saying "Ten years in the east, ten years in the west". If you want to know how your fortune will be in life, use the eight-character calculation function on Shuimoxiansheng.com!
