I have some relatives (Christians???? and Taoists) who believe that spirits of the deceased come back as insects at events such as their funeral wake to look-see. So much so that when a locust or some other bug appears at a funeral wake crawling over a table, you're not supposed to squish the bug. Well, I just don't do anything to insult or go against their beliefs.

Cheers!

I'm not too sure about this. But, there were people who sprinkled white powder on the seventh day when it would 'return' home for the last time. I have a quite a number of sevens and this numeric means ... not too sure ... I thought it could be "of spirit(s)".
