Posted January 8, 20232 yr Hi Cecil, Interested in understanding - If someone from extended family passed away, do we have to wait for 49 or 100 days or even longer before we can do the following? view houses Buy house Moving into new house Start a new business - for example, open a shop Thanks in advance for any advice!

Thus if one were to sprinkle e.g. talcum powder on the floor, one may get to see foot prints on the floor. 2. Thus it applies to who had lived in that specific house and had passed recently. It can be a family member or what you mentioned an extended member who had lived in that home. Thus the key word is "LIVED THERE". Thus it need not even be own family or extended family member. 3. In this instance, it boils down to the "moved away". Therefore, out of all your four points, Para 3 is relevant = of "Moving into (a new) house" during this period. 4. This is the rationale why some fear to move-house in case the decease "come back" and cannot recognise familiar faces, that's all. Thus often some feel unsettled and avoid moving for some time. And some feel unsettled to move out within 49 days. 5. 100 days has more to do for some with the completion of the process of mourning period. 6. Why cannot? Huh?

Frankly, it is as good as telling people that they are not allowed to bathe during the entire period of mourning. 8. This is not North Korea. And even so, I don't think this harsh absurd country does such things also. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++ FAMOUS ALMOST LAST WORDS....
