Shui Mo Xiansheng website has carefully compiled detailed information about the tenth month of the lunar calendar in 2019. If you want to know about the auspiciousness and inauspiciousness of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, please come to Shui Mo Xiansheng website!What are the customs for visiting graves during Cold Clothes Festival in 2019?1. Necessary offerings: incense, candles, paper money, fruits, snacks, vegetarian wine, winter clothes2. It is best to go to the cemetery between 9 am and 3 pm, not too early or too late. On the first day of October, the sun rises later and sets earlier. The period from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. is the time of the day when the Yang energy is relatively strong, which will strengthen your own Yang energy. 3. It is best to carry some red with you . Before going to the cemetery, it is best to be prepared in terms of clothing, such as wearing red underwear, red socks, or a red hat. The nebulous energy in cemeteries is heavy, especially on days like October 1st, when it is even heavier. According to the belief that red can ward off evil spirits, wearing red on your body can help keep you safe. 4. People with weak constitutions should wear amulets . People with weak constitutions should not go to the cemetery alone. It is best to ask someone with strong constitutions to accompany them. Especially if joint burial or relocation of graves is required, it is best to take some protective measures in advance. If conditions permit, you can ask other people to pick up the bones of your ancestors from the tomb on your behalf to reduce the time you spend in the tomb. Wearing amulets drawn by professionals can enhance one's own yang energy and protect oneself from the yin energy of the cemetery. 5. Perform the ceremony devoutly, inform the ancestors by kneeling down, burning incense, burning paper money, and performing grand ceremony to worship them. Tell the ancestors that it is not because they are unfilial descendants and are disturbing their bodies, but that due to certain reasons, they had to disturb the ancestors. Beg the ancestors to forgive them and bless the future generations. In other words, tell the ancestors what you are going to do at the grave and why you are doing it, and hope that the ancestors will bless you and that everything will go smoothly and peacefully. 6. Precautions for burning winter clothes : Burning winter clothes is done in front of the grave of the deceased in some places, and it is important to visit the grave before the sun rises. In some places, it is customary to burn sacrificial offerings in front of the door. In many places in Yanbei and counties such as Pingyao in Jinzhong, women would cry loudly outside their doors in the evening. When burning paper money, men usually draw a cross and women draw a circle, without sealing the opening of the circle. Whether it is drawing a cross or a circle with a hole in it, this is the meaning of the Taoist talisman. The purpose of drawing the talisman is to prevent other wild ghosts from snatching away the paper money when burning it inside the talisman. Taboos and precautions for visiting graves during the Cold Clothes Festival:1. You cannot offer sacrifices to people who died suddenly (people who died unexpectedly).2. Worship in the ancestral hall or in front of the tablet. The heavenly souls here can be communicated with at any time, no matter in the morning or evening. 3. If there is no ancestral hall or tablet, and you have to go to a deserted intersection (or roadside) and communicate with the heavenly soul only at night, then worship should only be done at night. 4. There are not many other procedures when worshiping in the ancestral hall or in front of the tablet. You just need to light three incense sticks, call on the ancestors while burning paper and make a wish to protect your family. 5. Draw a circle on the ground that is not closed but has a small opening, so that the ancestors can receive the blessings of worship; 6. First, burn some paper outside the circle to reward the five directions of the land and the void; 7. Burn paper in the circle, asking the land and the void to pass on these blessings to the ancestors; 8. When burning paper, you can make a wish to your ancestors for blessings. As the saying goes, "A good fate is not as good as good luck." A person's destiny is already determined, and the only thing that can be controlled is his or her "luck."
