Anzang (Interment)
Burial, placing a coffin or ashes into the ground.
Interment is a critical step in funeral rites, returning the deceased to the earth. Traditionally, great emphasis is placed on the date and direction of the burial, as it is believed that choosing an auspicious time and location will allow the deceased to rest in peace and bring blessings of safety, peace, and prosperity to their descendants. Therefore, almanacs meticulously list dates suitable for interment as a guide for the practice.
