Description
溪钱 (Xi Qian), also known as “过路钱” (Guo Lu Qian) or “开路钱” (Kai Lu Qian), is primarily used to ensure the smooth passage of wandering souls, helping them avoid earthly entanglements. This joss paper, referred to as KaiCin in Cantonese, is considered a common currency in the Netherworld, with each piece representing three ancient coins due to its circular shape.
Typically utilized in rituals to “open the way for the deceased,” Xi Qian is burned as a form of “buying road money.” While it holds a lower status among paper offerings, similar to small change, it plays an essential role in ancestral worship. Please burn this paper rather than throwing it into the air
溪钱，也称为“过路钱”或“开路钱”，主要用于确保亡魂顺利通行，帮助他们避免世间的纠缠。这种纸钱在粤语中称为开钱（KaiCin），被视为阴间的常用货币，每张纸钱由于其圆形设计，象征着三枚古钱。
溪钱通常在“开路”仪式中使用，作为“买路钱”进行焚烧。尽管在各种纸钱中地位较低，类似于小零钱，但它在祖先崇拜中却发挥着重要的作用。请务必焚烧这纸钱，而不是将其抛洒在空中。
