Birth, aging, sickness and death happen every day and at any time. It is the law of nature. The death of a loved one is tragic no matter when, and the timing of their death is beyond anyone’s control. All family members can do is to provide good end-of-life care for the dying person, so that they can feel the love of their family in the last stage of their life. When a loved one passes away, it is most appropriate for family members to maintain a mournful and accepting attitude and take care of the funeral arrangements.How do we celebrate the seventh day after death of people who died during the Qingming Festival?On the seventh day after a person's death, his or her soul will return home for a final remembrance. The family will prepare the deceased's favorite food and objects as a final tribute. The Chinese call this day the "first seven days". The first seven days is a Chinese funeral custom. It is based on the time of death of the deceased, calculated with the help of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches to determine the day and time. However, people usually think that the "first seven days" refers to the seventh day after a person's death. It is generally believed that the soul of the deceased will return home on the "first seven days". Family members should prepare a meal for the soul of the deceased before the soul comes back, and then they must avoid it. The best way is to sleep, and hide in bed if you can't sleep. If the soul of the deceased sees family members, he will be worried, which will affect his reincarnation.The first seven days are handled by sons, the second seven days are the minor seven days, the third seven days are handled by married daughters, the fourth seven days are also the minor seven days, the fifth seven days are for married granddaughters, the sixth seven days are also the minor seven days, and the seventh seven days, also known as the full seven days or the complete seven days, are handled by sons from beginning to end, with complete merits. Due to the development of industry and commerce, modern people are busy with work, so some people shorten the 49 days to 24 days. For example, the first seven days and the seventh seven days are seven days each, and every two days in between are "seven", which makes 24 days in total. During the mourning period, no festivals are celebrated before the funeral, and no worship is done on the death anniversary of ancestors. For those who are older than 50 years old, the last seven days are on the 49th day. For those who are not older than 50 years old, the day is commonly known as "the fast passing of the dead", which is usually shortened to six days from the 27th day. Therefore, the last seven days are actually on the 43rd day. 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."
