Taoist blog, what do you think of incense to check things for pilgrims?

dear, it's nothing interesting, it's purely accidental. This kind of phenomenon you mentioned is superstition, which is collectively called "looking at the head of incense", that is, judging good or bad according to the different forms of incense burning is actually not allowed. The length of incense burning is related to the quality, material, compactness, whether there is wind, oxygen distribution uniformity, ignition time and so on, but it doesn't show anything, and the fairy won't enlighten you in such a low-level way (because since it is If an ordinary person dies, the intensity of his soul can only hold a dream at most, but can't change the length of incense burning. Remember, faith is totally different from superstition and folk custom.

But if you are so interested, I'd better send you the fragrance spectrum:

Fragrance spectrum

1. The fragrance head on the right is higher than the fragrance head on the left and in the middle, and the fragrance head on the left and in the middle is even. This is called: Heaven and earth fragrance;

2. The incense head on the left is higher than the incense head on the right hand side and in the middle, and the right hand and the middle are flat. This is called: disaster relief incense;

3. The left and right sides are lower than the middle, but the left and right sides are flat. This is called Little Innocent Fragrance (meaning that there is a Buddha coming);

4. The one with the highest fragrance in the middle, the second in the right hand and the lowest in the left hand is called Zengcaixiang;

5. The incense of merit and virtue (blessed by the gods) increases step by step from left to right;

6. The left hand is low, the middle and the right hand are high (and it is 1.5 times higher than the left hand), which is called "promoting Danxiang" (meaning: good health, fools gain wisdom);

7. The left hand is lower than the middle hand and the right hand (lower by one head of incense), but it is too low, which is called urging for offering incense (ancestors will come in three days, so offerings must be prepared);

8. The left hand is even with the middle, which is higher than the right hand (higher than one quarter), which is called: Zengfuxiang (good luck and good wishes come within ten days);

9. From left to right, it decreases in steps, which is called: Blissful Fragrance (something festive is coming);
