Li Chun 4/2/24 1626, the first day of
the first month of the lunar calendar is 10/2/24, which means that the Year of
the Dragon has come before the Chinese New Year, and children born after 4/2/24
1626 are already considered born in the year of the dragon with zodiac Dragon,
and not rabbit.
If you are going to shift to your new
house, you have to select auspicious dates & time according to the bazi
(time of birth) of the family members and facing of the house for three very
important dates i.e. Earth Breaking Date, Start Operation date and House
Shifting Date.
Auspicious date selection is not an
easy job and it involves some studies on all aspects. After the date has been
determined, a simple ceremony can be carried out. It is vital to conduct the
ceremony to show our respect to the Heaven, Human, Earth 天人地and the surrounding.
Earth Breaking Date
1. Firstly, prepare 4 sets of fruits
(apple, Mandarin orange or orange, banana and pear), some sweets and 3 cups of
Chinese tea. Just make sure the number of fruits is odd. In the I-Ching, odd
numbers are associated with Yang, while even numbers are associated with Yin.
2. Put the things at 4 different
locations i.e. North West, South East, North East and South West of your house.
Hence, there should be 4 sets of fruits, some sweets and 3 cups of Chinese tea
at 4 different locations respectively.
3. For those who use joss stick, pray
and put them onto the fruits until they have completed burning. For those who
do not use joss stick, just pray at the sectors. Say your wishes when you pray.
4. The schedule of praying is from
North West; followed by South East, then North East and lastly the South West.
5. Break a small piece of the wall.
However, after 4 Feb 2024, you should
avoid breaking the wall at the below locations: -
1. West sector of your
house, shop, factory or office – 5 yellow 五黃位.
2. South sector of your
house, shop, factory or office – 3 killings 三煞位
3. South East sector of
your house, shop, factory or office –
Grand Duke太岁位
4. North West sector of
your house, shop, factory or office –
Year breaker岁破位
所谓不可在太岁头上动土In short, you should not ‘touch’ the North West, South East, South
and West prior ‘touching’ other
places. This is to show that we ‘respect them’. After
breaking the small piece at the correct place, you can proceed to renovate any
other places. You can break the small piece of wall at the places other than
the places that mentioned earlier. In another word, you can ONLY start the
renovation after the ceremony.
Conduct the ceremony yourself then
the constructor should start immediately after ceremony. Construction should
not exceed two days from the ceremony date. The latest is not more than 2 days
from the ceremony date.
It is crucial to maintain a peaceful
mind when the ceremony is being carried out. No argument should be taken place
during the ceremony. Pray with a sincere and pure heart. You can consume the
fruits after the prayer.
Shifting Ceremony
1. Firstly, prepare 4 sets of fruits
(apple, Mandarin orange or orange, banana and pear), some sweets and 3 cups of
Chinese tea. Just make sure the number of fruits is odd. In the I-Ching, odd
numbers are associated with Yang, while even numbers are associated with Yin.
2. Put the things at 4 different
locations i.e. North West, South East, North East and South West of your house.
Hence, there should be 4 sets of fruits, some sweets and 3 cups of Chinese tea
at 4 different locations respectively.
3. For those who use joss stick, pray
and put them onto the fruits until they have completed burning. For those who
do not use joss stick, just pray at the sectors. Say your wishes when you pray.
4. The schedule of praying is from
North West; followed by South East, then North East and lastly the South West.
(Step 1-4 is the same as the earth breaking ceremony but you can pray to the
ancestors and Heaven 神 for the shifting ceremony)
If you happen to move or put an ‘神ang kong’/altar, you can bring the ‘ang kong’ a few days before the shifting date
and cover the eyes with red paper. Place the ‘ang kong’ on the altar and remove the red paper on that auspicious
time and start praying to the ‘ang kong’ before you pray the 4 corners
mentioned per the above.
5. After the prayers, you should
place 柴米油鹽酱醋茶 cooking material such as rice, oil,
salt, sauce, vinegar and tea leaves into the kitchen. Subsequently, boil a
kettle of water or cook something to symbolize that you have started to occupy
the kitchen and the house.
6. Activate the Qi of the house by switching
on all the lights and fans.
7. It is superb if you can hold a
house-warming party to gain more Qi of the human when there are lots of
laughter and children praying around the house.
8. It is crucial to maintain a
peaceful mind when the ceremony is being carried out. No argument should be
taken place during the ceremony. Pray with a sincere and pure heart.
Start Operation Ceremony

立春4/2/24 1626申时，农历正月初一为10/2/24，意思是说农历新年降临前龙年已经降临， 4/2/24 1626 之后出生的孩子已经是属龙了。立春就是新的一年了因为大地已回春了, 立春之后各方面的吉凶也随着变动了.
如果要搬新家，必须根据家庭成员的八字（出生时间）和门向来选择吉日日期，这三个日期分别是破土，搬迁和开始运作日期。日期确定后，可以进行一个简单的仪式。
吉日吉时选择不是一件容易的事，它涉及到各方面的研究。这三个破土，搬迁和开始运作仪式是非常重要的，这表明我们对天人地和周围环境的尊重。
动土/破土仪式
1.首先准备4种水果（苹果，橘子或桔子，香蕉和梨子），一些糖果和3杯中国茶。只需要确保水果的数量是奇数即可。在易经中，奇数属于阳，而偶数则属于阴。
2.把东西分别放在你家的西北，东南，东北和西南四个地方。因此，4个不同地点应该分别有4套水果，一些糖果和3杯中国茶。
3.对于那些使用香烛的人，祈祷后把香烛插在水果上，直到烧完为止。对于那些不使用香烛的人，只要在这些方向祷告。当你祈祷时说出你的愿望。
4.祈祷顺序依次是西北，东南，东北，最后是南西。
5.打破一小块墙或一小块土代表动土了。
但是，在2024年2月4日之后，您必须避免在以下地点打破墙壁/动土：
1.你的房子，商店，工厂或办公室的西部 - 五黄位。
2.你的房子，商店，工厂或办公室的南部 - 三煞位
3.你的房子，商店，工厂或办公室的东南部 –太岁位
4.你的房子，商店，工厂或办公室的西北部 - 岁破位
所谓不可在太岁头上动土。总之，不要在“动”其他地方之前“动” 西北, 西,东南和南方。这是为了表示我们“尊重他们”。在正确的地方打破小块后，您可以进行翻新/装修任何其他地方。
你可以打破前面提到的地方以外的地方的一小块墙。换句话说，仪式结束后才能开始装修。
仪式举办后，施工人员应立即开始。仪式日期最多不超过2天。
仪式进行的时候保持和平的心态是至关重要的。仪式期间不应该发生争论。用真诚和纯洁的心祈祷。祷告后你可以所准备的食用水果。
搬迁仪式
1.首先准备4套水果（苹果，橘子或桔子，香蕉和梨子），一些糖果和3杯中国茶。只需要确保水果的数量是奇数即可。在易经中，奇数属于阳，而偶数则属于阴。
2. 把东西分别放在你家的西北，东南，东北和西南四个地方。因此，4个不同地点应该分别有4套水果，一些糖果和3杯中国茶。

4. 祈祷顺序依次是西北，东南，东北，最后是南西。（步骤1-4与破土仪式相同，但可以向祖先和天神祈祷）
如果您移动或放置“神尊”/ 祭坛，您可以在移动日期前几天带上“神尊”，用红纸遮住“神尊”眼睛。 把“神尊” 安放在祭坛上，在那个吉祥的时候把红纸拿掉，然后开始祈祷“神尊” ，然后再为上面提到的四个角落祷告。
5.祈祷后，应将柴米油盐酱醋茶等烹饪材料放入厨房。随后，煮一壶水或煮东西来象征你已经开始利用/占据厨房和房子。
6.打开所有的灯光和风扇，开启房子的’气’。
7.举行一个温暖的聚会是极好的，当房子周围有很多孩子们欢声笑语的时候，可以获得更多的’好气’.
8.当仪式正在进行时，保持和平的心态是至关重要的。仪式期间不应该发生争论。用真诚和纯洁的心祈祷。
