Why is there a saying in the funeral that "never move the grave, ten moves and nine defeats"?

First of all, ancestral graves are rich places sought by ancestors according to the theory of geomantic omen, which is beneficial to future generations. So we will say "there is smoke on the ancestral grave" after seeing someone developed. Therefore, if we move the grave at will, it may ruin the family's good luck and make the family decline.

Moreover, the ancestral graves are the home of the deceased family elders. If you move a grave, you must dig it with a crock, which is a great disrespect for the deceased. Therefore, the average family is unwilling to move unless it is absolutely necessary.

Even if families turn from poverty to wealth, most families will not "move graves", but choose to further build and transform the original ancestral graves.

Finally, even if you want to move the grave, there are many rules to be done according to the rural stress. Once you do something wrong, it will ruin your good luck, which is also a sign of unfilial. Therefore, most people dare not move their graves, fearing that they will make mistakes and leave the name of unfilial descendants!

If you don't even understand the traditional culture of our country, it is difficult to understand the meaning expressed. For example, "three treasures of life, an ugly wife, a thin land and a broken cotton-padded jacket". At first glance, it means that a square and even ugly wife, a little cultivated land and a broken cotton-padded jacket are enough for a person's life. However, it contains a deeper meaning. From this simple sentence, China people who have suffered for thousands of years have exhausted their pursuit of a simple life and told us to be content. As the saying goes, "the contented are always happy."

What is a ancestral grave? Generally speaking, it can be called ancestral graves at least from the ancestors. In ancient times, people also believed that ancestral graves could influence future generations. "A tree is headless and lifeless, and its head is leafless and lifeless." Therefore, when people bury their descendants, they often bury the graves of their ancestors together. In this way, people will feel that their ancestors will bless themselves and prosper.

However, ancestral graves are generally based on the theory of geomantic omen, and the ancestors themselves look for a prosperous place. Under normal circumstances, ancestral graves are no longer random. Unless the graves collapse for no reason and something happens at home, you can only move.
