What do you mean by setting off fireworks in Tomb-Sweeping Day?

Tomb-Sweeping Day set off firecrackers to "wake our ancestors home". "Burning gold and setting off firecrackers (burning paper money)" is a ritual tradition handed down from Qingming before. Now, many people have changed their ideas from this traditional custom and chose flowers, fruits and other items to pay homage to their ancestors.

Tomb-Sweeping Day's sacrifice for sweeping is a traditional Chinese virtue, and it should be advocated to pay homage to relatives in Tomb-Sweeping Day, but the way of paying homage should be chosen. Of course, it is best for the elderly to be filial when they are alive. Setting off firecrackers will pollute the environment and produce noise to disturb the people. Compared with setting off firecrackers, we advocate environmental protection sacrifices such as flowers.

Setting off firecrackers is a folk tradition, which can drive away ghosts and bad things. Setting off firecrackers after going to the grave has two folk meanings.

Secondly, when we go to the grave to worship our ancestors, we just hope that the paper money we burn will only be given to our ancestors and not to other ghosts, so the purpose of setting off firecrackers after going to the grave is to drive away other ghosts and take away our ancestors. The second meaning is that people always think that going to those places is not clean, so setting off firecrackers after going to the grave is used to exorcise evil spirits.
