End of Lunar New Year Celebration (慶完元宵平靜復)

In about an Hour's time, our Lunar New Year Celebration will be ending.

Few things to keep all remind:

1) Offerings that being placed on the Altar since Eve of Lunar New Year, must be retrieved down. Edible-stuffs - please do not throw off. Inedible-stuffs - please wrapped them up and dispose Uprightly & Correctly.

2) Clean the Altar when the Stuffs are being retrieved. Do Not keep the Altar Un-clean or Filled with Dust & Incense-ash.

3) Remember to change the Water of any Flower-vase, if not, TIGER-ARMIES will be there to STING on you & your Family.

4) Replace the Tea-offerings to just Pure Water, try to maintain the Offering of Pure Water to the Deities every day. This is a form of Respect & Sincerity.

5) Remember to dispose the Ashes in the Incense-paper-Burning-Can. Pour the Ashes into a Bag and then dispose into your Rubbish-chute, if not, bring down to the Burning-can under your Block to pour off the Ashes.

6) On the Morning of 16th Day or 17th Day, remember to use Yin-Yang Water (陰陽水) plus 3 colors Flowers (三色花 Red/Yellow/Green) or Promogrante Leaves (石榴葉) or Pomela Leaves (柚子葉) to wash your Corridor. This is to make sure that you do Cleansing for your Home after SO MANY visitings during the 15 Days.

7) After the Cleansing, please do prepare some Cooling Soup (dessert) for the Family, eg: Barley Water (億米水), Green-bean Soup (綠荳湯), Cheng Thng (清湯) or White Fungus Soup (白木耳湯). This is to balance the Heaty Element in the Physical Body that being accumulated for the past 15 Days.

8) Last, wear a set of New Clothing (can be the set that you worn during the 1st 3 Days) and Offered 3 Incenses to Heaven, Deities & Ancestors. Ask for their Blessings again for the New Lunar Year.

Last of All, ALL THE BEST TO ALL IN YEAR OF JI CHOU (己丑萬事大吉).
