Taken from the book Good Luck Life by Rosemary Gong: “It’s traditional Chinese belief that a person’s good fortune is directly linked to the happiness of one’s ancestral spirits. The best time to secure the family’s elders’ joy is during the Clear Brightness Festival, also known as Qing Ming or Ching Ming. It’s a springtime holiday around April 4-6, or 106 days following the winter solstice, that acknowledges the dead in a cemetery ritual.”
