Why do we visit new graves in advance?

In fact, it is so that deceased friends or relatives can receive tributes in advance.

We need to know the difference between a grave and an old grave. A new grave refers to one that has been buried for no more than three years. The first grave-sweeping time should be chosen on an auspicious day within 10 days before the Qingming Festival. The second grave-sweeping time should be chosen on the day before the Qingming Festival. The third grave-sweeping time should be chosen on an auspicious day within 10 days after the Qingming Festival. After the date of grave-sweeping is selected, the specific time should be chosen at the fifth watch of the morning on that day, that is, before the sun comes out. This is because according to traditional customs, people dare not come out to eat offerings before dawn. An old grave refers to one that has been buried for more than 3 years; it is best to complete the tomb sweeping before 3 pm. Generally speaking, you have to choose a good time to visit the grave, preferably when the Yang energy is stronger. Generally speaking, the best time to visit the grave is Yinshi, 5-7 o'clock.
