Starburst18 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2012 Due to the delay in my renovation, now it can be completed only by end March ... so left with 2 options.. move in April which is the Lunar March Mth... or leave the place empty till the whole Qingming mth is over then shift... Which is a better option? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aristotle 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2012 Yes... it's like u noe when u hear say... duno to take the risk tooExactly right.I have some friends telling me 7th month still got some good dates but Qing Ming is a big no-no! The air is stronger or something. I don't mean to be rude but this is the nicest way I can put it.On the contrary, I get friends telling me: "No need to bother la. You work, save and pay for the house, "they" want to come and occupy means come ah? Where got such thing? Have some sense of ownership leh." I believe I'll go for the latter. From the free thinking perspective, I've done nothing wrong. I don't have to be afraid.So Starburst, does that help you pluck some courage?Lastly, just to share, not to be insulting to anybody/religion. A friend told me: "you sure read from those forum right. don't go and read and become skeptical. this is your home! only you and those whom you allow have the right to enter."

Qing Ming and Ghost month don't pass down in history for nothing.In my little opinion, things that you do once in a lifetime, better do it properly even if people laugh at you.I can say I believe in flying stars and not those traditional beliefs but if someone challenge me to sleep at a graveyard, I rather be the loserzzzz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bepgof 20 Report post Posted March 25, 2012 Can ask Bepgof also.....he Qing Ming or qing dynasty also has his knowledge and theory, tio bo broSince u ask, I response a little.1. Once, twice, or thice in a life time events definitely worth celebrating & to be memorable, how? by selecting a "good" date ONLY? That is too simplistic! I've mentioned before : failing to prepare is preparing to fail. To everyone's convenience is important.2. Qing Ming = Pure brightness = the earth has the most clearest airview, this is also the time when "most of the things" in northern hemisphere(southern hemispere the other way round)start to "grow" = welcome the sunlight, new & seasonal lives start. No more no less.3. "Moving house" - in singaporean context, is not as simple as a 1 or 2 days process. You already "in/out" the house so many time, why should care be emphasied on "official" date? To be frank, personally, I enjoy the "renovation period"which really very memorable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
