What is Ancestor Money and why is it used?
Ancestor Money has many names, also commonly referred to as Spirit Money, Ghost Money, Heaven Notes, Hell Notes, among others. It is a note made for the sole purpose of being burnt and offered to your ancestors. Your ancestors are then able to get things they need in the spirit world.
Burning ancestral money also helps dissolve financial debt that they incurred while being alive. Once their debts have been paid your ancestors will start to help you more with the things you need in the form of sending you blessings.
Before you can make offerings to your ancestor, you must first have an Ancestor Altar.
The Jade Emperor
