The footsteps of the Qingming Festival have been quietly approaching, this year's Qingming Festival, the time is earlier than before, the February of the lunar calendar will usher in the Qingming Festival, we all know that the core thing of the Qingming Festival, that is, the tomb sacrifice, that is, we often say that the tomb sweeping, it is an activity to sacrifice the dead, in the mainland because of the vast area, so the customs of the tomb are also diverse, there are quite a lot of exquisiteness, in time, there are four traditional sacrifice festivals, the Qingming Festival is one of them.
According to folk tradition, the younger generation should prepare offerings before the sacrifice, including paper money, incense and candles, as well as fruits and firecrackers, and then go to the grave of the deceased to sacrifice to them, in order to express their feelings of longing, but also hope that in the following days, the ancestors can bless the family, the people are prosperous, and the family is prosperous.
When preparing offerings and sacrifices, the folk pay more attention to it, for example, "there are no three fruits before the grave, and no three places are left after the sacrifice", what do the three fruits and three places refer to when going to the tomb during the Qingming Festival? This is what people often say about the matters to be paid attention to in the sacrifice.
1. There are no three fruits in front of the grave
It means that at the time of the sacrifice, if we take the fruit to the grave, there are 3 kinds that cannot be placed in front of the grave, that is to say, it cannot be used to make offerings, this is more out of, a moral to these fruits, people in the sacrifice, the number of fruits, the type, also require a good meaning.
1, Pear
When going to the grave on the Qingming Festival, when putting the fruit in front of the grave, remember that the pear can not be brought, its homonym is "leave", in the traditional festival, we all like to reunite, not separate, separate, on behalf of leaving, parting, which is obviously inconsistent with the sacrifice.
2. Grapes
Grapes are bunches, this can not be placed in front of the grave, because it means a series, the Qingming Festival itself is a sad day, if the grapes are used to sacrifice, in the eyes of the older generation, bad things happen one after another, and even lead to family dissatisfaction.
3. Hollow plum
Plums are also not suitable for being placed in front of the grave to sacrifice, Li also has the meaning of leaving, and at the same time hollow, it means that it is not pious enough, we have been talking about the heart to be pious when sacrificing, if not pious, then it is better not to sacrifice, so when sacrificing to the ancestors, remember not to put the hollow plum.
2. Do not leave three places after the sacrifice
After the sacrifice, you can't stay in the three places, so this is also understandable, after the sacrifice, you should stay at home and don't run around, because people believe that on such days, the yin qi is relatively heavy, and if you don't pay attention, it is easy to be targeted by dirty things.
1. Don't leave relatives
After the sacrifice, do not leave the relatives' house, that is, tell us, after the grave sacrifice, do not go to the door, otherwise, it is easy to cause a dissatisfaction with others, when the sacrifice, it is inevitable to touch the scene and sadness, and the mood is low, go to other people's homes, with emotions, is also what others do not want to see.
2. Fudome Wilderness Wilderness
During the Qingming Festival, after going to the sacrifice, we must also remember that do not stay in the barren mountains and wilderness, this kind of place can easily cause people to be frightened, which will bring unhappiness to people, and even bring disasters, especially in places where the yin qi is heavier, which is not good for the human body.
3. No graveyard is left
After the sacrifice, don't stay in the cemetery, this time to hurry home, generally in the time of the sacrifice, will choose to be carried out in the afternoon, that is, when the yang is the most vigorous, after the sacrifice, it is basically a process from yang to yin, therefore, we have to go home early.
