Birth, aging, sickness and death are the norm in life and no one can avoid them. However, when it comes to such a sad thing as the death of a loved one, no matter how many times you have experienced it, you still cannot accept it and you will suffer tremendous pain in your heart. So, if a loved one dies the day before you move, can you still move?Can I still move if a relative dies the day before I move?According to folk customs, after a family member dies, the family cannot move within forty-nine days, at least until the "fifth seventh day". According to legend, the "fifth seventh day" is when the deceased's soul reaches the Wangxiang Terrace and returns to his hometown for the last time. Generally, the bereaved family has a sacrificial ceremony on the "fifth seventh day" and also preserves the deceased's bed as it was. There may be some idealism in this regard, but it is also a kind of respect and mourning for the deceased.China has a vast territory, so the requirements on this matter may be very different in many places. Some places may think that it is not a big deal and proceed according to the normal plan. In other places, if someone dies in the family, they may wait three years before moving. Before moving, there may also be a small worship ceremony. If you are moving for a happy occasion, you must remember to burn incense for the deceased, and do this for three days and three nights. Also, after moving into the new house, you must remember to visit the deceased's grave and pay your respects a week later, so that you can comfort the deceased. How to clean your house before moving?Method 1:Prepare some sandalwood and light a stick in every room, including the toilet, in the morning and evening of the first three days after moving into the new house. Sandalwood itself contains some Chinese medicinal materials, which can repel miasma and unclean things. Method 2: Prepare grains, including rice, millet, sorghum, black beans, and mung beans. The operation is to mix the grains, open all the doors and windows, and start scattering from indoors to outdoors, chanting while scattering: this house has an owner, notify all directions, those who should leave should leave, those who should come should go, the grains, provide for generations, the house gods have returned, outsiders should stay away, and the grains are scattered to the front door. Then go to the kitchen, put the red cloth on the stove, put the grains in the bowl, and then put the bowl with the grains and other tributes such as wine, steamed buns, water, etc. on red paper, light incense, women hold the incense over their chests, and men hold the incense over their heads, chanting "the house god has arrived, the kitchen god has returned", then insert the incense into the bowl, wait for the incense to burn out, and wrap the tribute grains. Method 3: Prepare coarse salt. Seven days before moving into the house, sprinkle it in every corner of the house. Coarse salt has some function of removing filth. As long as there is a corner, sprinkle the coarse salt (or cinnabar) there. Just sprinkle it once. |
