4 April 2009 is the real day for Ching Ming, thus it is fine for all to go to the cemetery on that day. However, if it is not the real Ching Ming Day, then we have to know whether it is auspicious for us to do so. For instance, if it is the day of rooster, those that were born in the year of rabbit better avoid that day as rooster is against rabbit. Our house is considered as the 'yang resident' and the tomb is the 'ying resident'. The feng shui of the tomb is crucial and we cannot ignore its importance as its feng shui will influence the luck of the next generation.
The feng shui of the surrounding of the tomb is critical. It is better to higher 'green dragon' hill on the left hand side of the tomb. The nearby hills should be the hills with greenly plants and not the hills with a lot of rocks. It is even worst, if you is a 'broken hill'. (I am going to write an article about the hills in Penang.)
A lot of people stick a lot of small flats onto the tomb. It is a wrong practice.
The water flow around the tomb is equally important. If it is a 'bend bow river' type of water flow, it is inauspicious feng shui. Also, there should be ample space in front of the tomb.
i think this article is very interesting but I don't know mandarin. Can you translate it into english? :)
ReplyDeleteDone, Sam.
ReplyDeleteMaster Lee,
ReplyDeleteThanks. You're very fast.
I find this article very interesting and I have two questions.
1) Why one cannot place the flag on the tomb? And can we replace it with stone instead?
2) Why a tomb cannot face the road?
Hope to learn more from you. :)

Well. If you place flats onto the tomb, you are hitting the one inside the tomb. As for the question on why is a tomb cannot face the road, it is the same like we cannot stay in a house that face a road which is a 'chong sha'. Please refer to my book page 31.
