Matters needing attention in ancestor worship from the winter solstice in 2020
1. Don't go to remote places. Because it is to worship ancestors, it is inevitable to go to places where there are few people. It is best to take the usual route. Don't go hiking in remote places. One is safety, and the other is easy to stick to evil spirits.
2. It is better to sincerely worship the ancestors and sweep the grave. You should respect the grave you meet when you walk or stand. Don't touch the tombstone with your feet. It's better to be serious in this place. Don't touch and occupy other neighbors' tombstones at will.
Facing the graves of ancestors, we must clean up the weeds, add some loose soil, sweep away the debris in front of the graves and clean up the tombstones. Let the whole cemetery look brand-new, look fuller, meditate in your heart, and hope that the ancestors under Jiuquan will bless future generations with wealth and splendor.
4. It is best to choose to sweep the grave when the yang is strong. Like before dawn or just before dawn, or in the evening or when the sun is about to set, you can't go to the grave. Because the resistance is the weakest at this time, it is not good for grave sweepers. Generally, it is better between 10 am and 3 pm.
