Dear Chloe Lin,

In my opinion, bringing in items on the chosen auspicious day varies with different dialect groups.

Overall in my opinion; you can see if some of the items can be available to you (and some perhaps - optional).

Prior to the auspicious day; one can consider buying the following:-

1. One packet of rice (5 Kg) is OK. Not necessary the 10 kg bag.
2. One packet of sugar.
3. One packet of salt.

4. For the Hokkiens; they would buy a pineapple with the flower intact on the top. A pineapple to them signify: " ONG " or LUCK.
(Optional)

5. " Huat Quay " or a cake which is baked by adding e.g. coca cola or 7 up so that when it is baked it becomes `full' at the top. For the Chinese it is easy to find this in the market especially on the 15th day of each month. Alternatively; one has to `book' or pay a deposit a few days earlier with a baker. (Optional)

7. Charcoal wrapped in red paper. Usually, this is placed in a tub full of charcoal. A red piece of paper is placed on top of this bin. This bin / tub preferably should be red in colour. Here charcoal represents gold.
(Optional)

8. Para 8 goes with Para 7. Purchase of a charcoal stove. A small red one. (Optional)

10. In the market some even buy a packet of sweets or "sweet offerings."

9. In the past, a charcoal stove is lighted in the middle / centre of the house to bring in `warmth' to the new home.

On the day of moving in:

A. Choose a time and Look at the clock. For example if one choose a time such as : 8.28am then the breadwinner can open the main entrance door and (for the Hokkien) he would roll the pineapple (inwards) into the house towards. It does not matter if it rolls to any specific direction.

B. Then bring in the charcoal / charcoal stove and bag of rice / salt and sugar.

C. Go into the kitchen and boil water. This signify bringing warmth into the home.

D. Some also cook rice. (Optional) unless one is eating the rice.

E. At the same time; turn on the lights for every room.

F. In the evening it is preferred to turn on one light at the living room area or balcony area and leave this light on till midnight or next day. Other lights can be switched off soon after the initial moving in.

Some `beliefs' or taboos:-

G. For a new home; some feel that it would not be good to bring in existing furniture before or prior to this `auspicious' date.

For example; it is considered not auspcious to bring in used furniture from existing home prior to this. But if one purchased new furniture or electrical items; this can be brought into the new home.

Note: the above is just a belief.

However, to some; this does not apply where you are bringing in e.g. some present clothing or cleaning items to clean or wash the house.

I believe there are some pictures you can try searching under the pictures gallery under this website.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
