3rd day of Chinese New Year (7th February 2019)
Families who had an immediate relative deceased in the past 3 years will not go house-visiting as a form of respect to the dead.
The third day of the New Year is allocated to grave-visiting instead.
Some people conclude it is inauspicious to do any house visiting at all.
As it is believed that evil spirits roam the earth this day and hence it would be bad luck to be outdoors.
Businesses which had been closed during the prior festivities will be reopened.
And prayers will be held in order to be blessed with prosperity in the upcoming year.
Conservative Chinese businesses do not open until after the fifth day due to priviously mentioned roaming ghosts.
