On which day will there be a new grave to worship before the Spring Festival in 2023?
Hanging graves and sweeping graves for elders who have recently died within three years must be carried out before the Spring Festival, commonly known as "new graves are not cooperative". Since the Song Dynasty, the fifth day after beginning of spring was regarded as a social day. In 2022, beginning of spring is February 4th, beginning of spring is Wuzi Day, the second 5th is February 14, the third 5th is February 24th, the fourth 5th is March 6th, and the fifth 5th is March 6th 16. According to folk custom, a new grave that has not been swept for three years should be held before the Spring Festival. The so-called "new graves are not social." Offering sacrifices to people who have just died is generally not called sweeping graves, but called "hanging out with the society." Club is also what we often call Spring Club Day.
In fact, it is impossible to break ground on the new grave in three years. Whatever the reason, the first three years are the most important period for the new grave to affect future generations. If we break ground at this time, it will lead to a poor pattern of new graves and will not have much good influence in the future. After all, the pattern of graves was destroyed when the ground was broken.
