Notes on ancestor worship:Cleanliness of body and mind is most important. When you set out to sweep the graves, it is best not to eat anything that day, or eat some vegetarian food. Your clothes should be neat and clean to show courtesy and respect to your ancestors. Going to see your ancestors with bad luck and bad luck is not only disrespectful to them, but will often lead to their scolding. It can also easily lead to the possession of negative energy. Therefore, the ancients would burn incense and bathe before offering sacrifices. For women, it is best not to participate in such activities during menstruation, especially not to participate in Qingming mountain-worshiping activities after 3 pm. Pregnant women are also advised to avoid the Qingming Mountain Visiting activities, because pregnant women’s physical fitness is not very good and they are easily infected by the cold and yin energy.It is best to offer sacrifices sincerely and do it yourself. If you want to offer sacrifices sincerely, you should go to the cemetery in person. For various reasons, those who cannot go home to offer sacrifices and sweep the graves can also worship their ancestors at home. The method is to place food for worship on the balcony or in the living room towards the direction of your hometown, burn three incense sticks, bow three times, and silently recite relevant words. Then, paper money is burned as a sacrifice. To express grief, white is the appropriate color. To express grief and remember the ancestors, we usually buy some flowers, but chrysanthemums are the most suitable because they represent longing and remembrance. White is the best color, and you can also match it with some green grass, such as lilies, green leaves, carnations, etc., which will appear solemn, serious, and pure without appearing too sad. No laughing or playing is allowed in the ancestral sacred land. The cemetery is the home of the spirits, so one should not cross the graves to offer sacrifices; nor should one make loud noises, laugh, swear, use foul language, run around, or urinate anywhere. Doing so is not only disrespectful to one's ancestors, but also constitutes a nuisance to nearby spirits. You are not allowed to trample on other people's graves or comment on the design of the tomb. This will be regarded as blasphemy. If you encounter bad aura, you will be in trouble when you return home.
