1. When burning paper, you should recite the memorial words while burning it. 2. Keep a serious expression when burning paper, don't laugh or play around, and be respectful as long as you enter the cemetery. 3. When buying paper money, don’t buy the fancy printed ones available on the market. It’s best to stick to traditional ones. 4. Prepare matches and sticks in advance before burning paper so that you won’t easily burn your hands when burning paper. 5. The paper should be folded well before burning. Cut the paper into seven or eight pieces with one cut and fold them twice diagonally respectively. This will make it easier to burn. 6. Before burning paper for your relatives, it is best to light two pieces and throw them outside the circle to answer the wandering ghosts who have no relatives to send money to. 7. Before burning paper, draw a circle on the ground where you want to burn it, but don’t put yourself inside it. Leave a gap in the northwest corner to make it convenient for relatives below to come in and take the money. 8. You must wait until the paper is completely burned before you leave. This can prevent fire and also prevent the wind from blowing the paper out and causing other passing ghosts to pick it up and upset your ancestors.
