More importantly, the "owners" or "breadwinners" or subsidary tenants or anyone who are suppose to move-in should SLEEP from that day onwards. Is generally considered as having moved-in.2. In real life situations, some people may bring in their gods a few days earlier. An example is that they had an opportunity to bring in their gods on very good days such as every 15th lunar month or every 1st day of every lunar month. These days are always good days to bring in the gods.3. Often, we should not bring in the GODs too early. What is too early? For example, one month before we actually moved-in. Thus in general, one may consider bringing in a god earliest should be around 1 week before we move-in. For those who have an existing god in a home and planning to move-in.4. What happens if we bring in the god too early? One can still bring in the god earlier. But, one should make an effort to go to the new home every day to offer "prayers" or if one lights up "joss sticks" etc...5. One can still bring in all the furnitures a few days earlier. And on the actual day, "invite" the god to one's home. Here, the altar at the new home should be set up. And prior to bringing the god, simply say " We are bringing you now to our new home at e.g. Blk 111 Jalan Bukit Merah #01-11". And when we reach the ground floor, we should say that "we have arrived at our new location and will be bringing you up to Blk 111 Jalan..... ".6. Please take note that for those who are 'inviting gods" to their home, there is no hard and fast rule. Simply, often it is based commonsense! For example, no God would be angry if we may have to bring them in earlier for one reason or the other! For example, we have no choice but to vacate our home earlier. 7. For those who wish to bring in a new god; should consider moving in first. Especially for those bringing in "Goddess of mercy" or Quan Yin should try to bring "her" in especially on any one of the 15th lunar day of a month or the 1st lunar day of a month. As these are full moon and considered the most auspicious days.8. In general, when selecting a figurine:-White or Gold covered figurines = usually suited to those who ba zi is weak water element and weak metal elements, strong fire, strong earth, strong wood element.Wooden figurines = weak wood element, strong metal element, strong water element, weak fire element, strong earth.
