Introduction to the custom of moving graves
To move to a new grave, we need to choose the prosperous Phoenix Land in Long Mai, and move to the ancestral grave in a lively place surrounded by mountains and rivers. Only in this way can we achieve the effect of "taking care of people, managing money, reaching the case and standing in front of scholars and nobles".
When you "rise" the grave (break ground), you should burn incense, burn money to worship your ancestors, pray for the reason and address for your ancestors to move, and pray for the words of blessing and protection from your ancestors for future generations.
On the time of moving the grave, it is best to move the grave before the arrival of Tomb-Sweeping Day, so that the ancestors can "bury themselves" in Tomb-Sweeping Day to protect future generations.
It is best to move the grave at noon, so as not to burn the bones with the sun at noon. If there are too many ancestors, you can stop "lifting" the bones at noon and cover them with black cloth holes. Don't move your bones until after noon.
After opening the hole, the ancestors' bones must be placed neatly, and all joints of the bones should be put in place. If there are missing knuckles, dig them out carefully to avoid causing physical harm to future generations.
In an old grave with too many ancestors, we must pay attention to the pairing and placement of personnel relations after "lifting the bones" to avoid creating an image of "fornication" for future generations.
When laying a new grave, ancestors must adjust the "mountain direction" to avoid the collapse of the good "mountain direction", which can not be used and can not reflect the value of Feng Shui.
Introduction to mobile grave:
China people believe that people from heaven and earth will return to heaven and earth. Therefore, after death, it is best to go to the grave and return to nature. There is no need for luxury. This is why Han people pay attention to being buried underground. The purpose of moving the grave is to regulate neutralization, try to be harmonious and protect future generations.
Moving the grave is a family event, which is related to the career and official transport of future generations. We should be cautious. It is recommended to invite Feng Shui master or the venerable old man in the family to give personal guidance.
