How to face the Ghost Month without getting ghosted

by Ching Alano, The Philippine Star, 28 July 2022

Ref: https://philstarlife.com/news-and-views/818814-ghost-month-tips-august?page=3

Suddenly you feel a chill in the air and a shiver down your spine or you break out in a cold sweat in the middle of the night. You know it’s not because of your late-night binging on horror movies. But of course, it’s August, the Ghost Month, spooking you.

According to the Chinese calendar, Ghost Month (or the Hungry Ghost Month) traditionally falls on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month. This year, it started on July 29 and ends on August 26, peaking on August 12 (does that mean there’ll be more ghosts lurking around)?

“Ghost Month is that time of the year when the gates of hell are believed to be left open for spirits, specially those who died unexpectedly, to roam the earth and possibly cause harm to the living,” explains feng shui queen Marites Allen.

She elaborates, “These restless spirits are now in a different dimension, but may still be in limbo due to the swiftness of the events that cut their lives short. It therefore becomes incumbent for the living to appease these spirits — not only to ask them to spare us from misfortune but, more importantly, to assure them that they are remembered and honored in the most loving ways.”

Appease these spirits

If not properly appeased, these spirits may cause a lot of mischief. “Thus, it’s important to be on their good side by making the necessary offerings, by way of incense, food, or fake money, and following safety practices,” Marites prescribes this ghost-proof antidote.

Burning incense is a sure-fire way to appease ghosts, transform them into good ones (like everyone’s favorite  Casper the Friendly Ghost?), and dissolve bad energies. The soothing scent of incense is the only food wandering spirits can take. Having appeased these spirits, you can now ask them not to harm you but instead, to protect and watch over you.

With the prevailing yin or negative energy during this period, it is believed, says Marites, that the Ghost Month brings potential bad luck to individuals, families, and businesses.

To illustrate her point, Marites takes us back to the tragic Rizal Park hostage crisis in August 2010. Likewise, if you do an Internet search, you will see that we experienced strong earthquakes and killer typhoons around this month in different years.

The Good, The Bad, and the Scary

Which animal signs are lucky and which are unlucky during Ghost Month 2022?

“This Ghost Month, the good stars will double and triple to benefit the animal signs of Tiger, Ox, Rat, Horse, Dragon, Snake, Dog, and Boar,” Marites shares what’s in the stars for us. “On the other hand, it will bring double/triple challenges to the Rabbit, Rooster, Sheep, and Monkey.”

Is Au-ghost a good time to get married?

To couples planning to exchange their sweet “I do’s,” Marites says a big fat “Don’t”!

She gives this friendly advice, “But if it cannot be avoided, choose an auspicious date during the month. Also, keep in mind some ways to minimize the negative energies lurking around. For example, when choosing the color motif of the wedding, go for pastel colors. Bright colors, specially red, are believed to attract female ghosts while white is said to invite evil spirits (of course, you don’t want those ‘uninvited gatecrashers’ to your wedding, do you?).”

Marites adds, “Also, choose to hold your wedding in the morning rather than at night. When taking wedding photos, avoid posing near water spots because these are favorite dwelling places of spirits.”

Is this a good month to get pregnant?

To this loaded question, Marites replies, “It is believed that restless spirits are specially drawn to pregnant women and children, so it may be a bad idea to plan a pregnacy during this period. Studies show that in Taiwan, because of this belief, deliveries by Caesarean section are at their lowest during the Ghost Month and higher in the months before its onset.”

Is it a good month to give birth?

Without belaboring the subject, Marites replies, “Feng shui reckons a person’s luck prospects based on the year, unlike the Western astrology way, which bases it on one’s month of birth. Since Ghost Month happens somewhere in the middle of the year, it is believed that the characteristics of a person born in a specific year will be strongest in one who is born during the seventh month.”

So, you see, you have nothing to be afraid of just because the dead have come down to join the living. Just don’t look behind you, sit back, relax, and keep your spirits up!

What you need to know about the Hungry Ghost Month

CNN Philippines, 29 July 2022

Ref: https://www.cnnphilippines.com/lifestyle/2022/7/29/Dos-and-Donts-Ghost-Month.html

Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, July 29) — Once again, it’s that time of the year when people are extra careful about anything associated with bad luck.

Feng Shui expert Marites Allen said the Hungry Ghost Month runs from July 29 to Aug. 26, a time when souls of the deceased are believed to roam around and bring potential misfortune to the living.

Here are some do’s and don’ts to get through the Hungry Ghost Month, according to Allen:

Do’s

• Burn incense to ‘feed’ the ghosts

Allen said offering incense dissolves bad energies and transforms them into good ones.

• Keep your living spaces clean

Try to play meditative and relaxing music as often as possible to keep the ghosts away.

• Keep your door hinges properly oiled

This is to avoid squeaks that might bring in lost spirits.

• Wear mantra protection charms

Allen said it is better to be calm when faced with a scary or eerie presence. “Anti-evil spirit” charms can also help in warding off negative energies.

• Offer food to the spirits

A food offering can include the favorite food of a dearly departed. Include cooked rice, a small cup of wine or any hard liquor, beans, fruits, peanuts, reed candies, and incense sticks.

• When in danger, chant “hum, hum, hum”

Allen said this invokes “heaven, earth, and humankind” as it is the most basic of all prayers and mantras.

Don’ts

• Avoid going to ‘yin’ places

“These are like hospitals, prison cells, those are yin energy places,” Allen said.

• Avoid throwing big parties at home

Throwing housewarming parties could invite wandering spirits into a new home. Weddings or birthdays may also cause dissatisfaction and jealousy among spirits.

• Avoid using a lot of black accessories

Wear colors with the fire element energy, such as red, pink, or purple.

• Avoid romantic gestures in dark places

“Apparently the ghosts are getting jealous of you,” Allen said.

• Don’t travel late at night

“Cancellations, delays of flight could happen,” Allen said.

• Don’t sleep with a mirror in front of your bed

Mirrors are believed to be “soul stealers” in feng shui. Repositioning or putting a drape over them is advisable.

• Don’t go camping or trekking

This makes one more vulnerable to physical injuries during the Holy Ghost Month, as spirits frequent in places where the yin energy is strong.

• Don’t schedule major construction

Renovation works that entail a lot of drilling, grinding, and nailing create noise that attract wandering spirits. If construction has already begun, light an incense everyday.

• Stop saying ‘ghosts.’ Call them ‘friends’

“Better to call them ‘good friends,’ and in fact, you can ask some favors from them,” Allen advised.

“There are some things in life that we cannot postpone because we have to do them,” she added. “For me, just proceed with caution and do a lot of prayers. This is the time that we have to pray harder for our dear departed. The more we pray for them, it would be better for all of us.”
