There are two conditions for choosing a date: first, the direction of the tomb. 2. The date, month, day and time of birth of the deceased (commonly known as "immortal destiny"). Only by knowing these two things can we avoid the selected days from colliding with the tombs and immortal destiny, causing disasters, and bring out the nobles and fortunes of sitting on the mountain and the immortal destiny (from the chosen year, month, day, and hour of heaven) manifested in the earthly branches), so that the dead can enjoy peace and the living can gain wealth. But if the birth year of the deceased is not known, then the burial will be carried out according to the "good luck". The sitting direction of the tomb is a must, otherwise there is no need to choose a date.
