How to choose the time for tomb sweeping during Qingming Festival in 2019?

The best time for tomb-sweeping on Qingming Festival is when the Yang energy is stronger, that is, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the latest.
Because if you go any later the sun will be setting and the Yang energy will be insufficient, some unclean things may appear. If you visit the graves at this time, you will bring bad things home. Therefore, the time to visit the graves should be chosen during the day when the Yang energy is relatively strong. It should be avoided before dawn or in the evening when the Yin energy is heavier.
For a new grave (buried no more than 3 years ago), the first visit should be on an auspicious day chosen within 10 days before Qingming Festival. The second visit should be on the day before Qingming Festival. The third visit should be on an auspicious day chosen within 10 days after Qingming Festival. For old graves (buried more than 3 years ago), you can choose a day to visit the grave within 10 days before or after the Qingming Festival.
Legend has it that there will be a meeting in the underworld during the Qingming Festival, and those who have not visited the graves of their ancestors cannot attend. Participants must enter the conference holding the flags given by their relatives. Therefore, when visiting the graves on Qingming Festival, paper flags are placed on the graves.

What should you pay attention to when visiting graves?

1. Pregnant women are forbidden to visit graves. Most of the graves are in the mountains and the roads are not accessible. Setting off firecrackers is not good for the health of pregnant women. It is said that the spirit of the fetus will conflict with the negative energy of the graves and cause the death of the child. If you must go, wrap your stomach with a red cloth.
2. It is forbidden for the sick and weak to visit graves. Visiting graves will consume physical energy and make the condition worse. The weak have insufficient yang energy and weak vitality, which makes it easy for evil spirits to invade and cause possession by spirits. Visiting graves can cause physical and mental harm to sick people, so it is best not to do so.
3. Avoid having young children visit graves
Children under the age of 7 are forbidden to visit graves, as it is said that children's eyes are blurry and they can see bad things. In addition, the environment of the cemetery is poor, children are prone to illness and are more easily frightened. Children are prone to crying and making noises, which can easily frighten the ancestors, and is also disrespectful to the deceased around the cemetery.
4. Avoid visiting the graves of people who are too unlucky. Such people will be "unlucky". Everything will go wrong during this period. Their foreheads will be black and they will be unlucky. When visiting the graves, there will be many places and a lot of negative energy. It will be even more unlucky for people who are too unlucky.
5. It is taboo for women who are menstruating to visit graves . Women who are menstruating have unclean bodies and may be haunted. Visiting graves is disrespectful to the ancestors. Ghosts are afraid of hauntings and dare not approach to take paper money, and they will not bless future generations.
6. Avoid outsiders from participating in visiting graves. Visiting graves is a way for relatives to worship their ancestors and is a family matter. Everyone's aura is different. If outsiders accompany the ancestors to the graves, it will disturb the ancestors and easily attract the invasion of negative energy. 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."
