What are the things to pay attention to when erecting a monument?

Requirements for the Stone Tablet
The material of the stone tablet should be durable and resistant to weathering. The color of the stele surface should be black or gray. Black and gray have a solemn feeling, and are cool colors, which are yin and suitable for use in tombs. Do not use bright colors. Bright colors on the stele will indicate lustful colors in the house.
Among them, according to the Bagua Palace facing the front of the stele, gray is better than black when facing south, and black is better than gray when facing east and southeast. It should not be too tall or too short. Generally, it should not be lower than the abdomen and not higher than the neck. It is not the case that the taller the better.
The shape of the tombstone should be rectangular and regular, not too narrow or too wide. If the tombstone is short and wide, the descendants will be short and fat.
Tombstone inscription
The stone tablet is usually engraved with the name of the tomb owner, the name of the person who erected the tablet (usually descendants), the date of erection, etc. The engraving on the tablet must be in negative, that is, concave, and not convex.
Heading: The heading mainly includes the deceased’s position and occupation during his lifetime, etc. Some of them can be omitted.
Main text: Mainly states the title of the deceased and the name of the deceased by the person who erected the monument.
Signature: Write down the identity and name of the person who erected the monument. The time of erection can be written or not.
People with political achievements and merits will also have epitaphs engraved.
Time of erection
In terms of Feng Shui date selection, there are two time periods in a year when you don't have to choose a date. One of the time periods is around the Qingming Festival, when you can add soil to the grave, erect tombstones, plant trees, and do all kinds of things related to the grave. This is why people concentrate all matters related to the grave on the Qingming Festival.
If a monument is to be erected during the Qingming Festival, it should be done within half a month between the week before and the week after the festival.
For other specific times, you must choose an auspicious day, and never conflict with the person who has deceased the person who erected the tombstone, so as to avoid bringing harm to your relatives and causing future troubles.
Direction of the monument
The direction of the monument should be consistent with that of the acupuncture point. Many friends know the details of Feng Shui for tombs. There are 24 directions, and 360 is divided into 24 parts of 15 degrees, that is to say, one direction is 15 degrees. If the direction of the monument does not match the direction of the acupuncture point in the grave, it may result in a slight error. Point selection and direction setting are the most critical links in Feng Shui for tombs and should not be underestimated.
Erecting a monument is related to the popularity, health, and career of future generations, as well as which descendants will be more beneficial. Remember the northeastern direction of Gen. Generally, do not erect a monument because the traditional Gen direction is the gate of ghosts. Erecting a monument here can easily make family members uneasy, the yin energy is heavy, and there may be ghosts and strange things happening.
The distance between the tombstone and the grave
The distance between the tombstone and the tomb should not be too far or too close. Generally, it should be between 9 inches and 6 feet away from the acupuncture point.
Remember that the tombstone and the tomb should not be in close contact with each other. If they are too close, it will easily affect the feng shui effect of the tomb. If they are too far, the tombstone and the acupuncture point cannot connect with each other.
The specific distance depends on the construction of the tombstone and the acupuncture point.
Protection of tombstones
After the tombstone is erected, you must pay attention to protecting it. If it is crooked, it should be corrected, bird droppings should be wiped clean, and if it is cracked, it should be repaired or replaced.
According to the Feng Shui view, a tombstone affects the fortune of the whole family. For example, if it collapses, a family member will suffer a disease at the top or upper part of the tombstone, a disaster will happen to the eldest son in the left side of the tombstone, and women will be injured at the back of the tombstone. Although you cannot believe all the information, it is still better to be careful.

Although the eight characters of life are already determined, understanding and controlling your future fortune in advance can help you avoid misfortune and gain a better future.
