St. Joseph: Proper Burial Procedures
One of the nice things about being a real estate agent is that I receive an e-mailed newsletter from Planet Realtor.com. It has lots of info about the business and helps keep real estate agents updated on the latest trends and legal matters affecting real estate.
The newsletter has just run an article detailing the proper methodology for burying a statue of St. Joseph as an aid to selling. Appealing to St. Joseph for help in selling a house is a tradition that goes back about 200 years, or so says the newsletter. Since my last blog article dealt with the metphysical approach to selling, I feel it only fair to discuss the religious aspects of the same subject. Besides, with home sales off by as much as 40 percent and buyers waiting to see how low sellers will go before making offers, home sellers need all the help they can get including enlisting the aid of St. Joseph.
So, if you're going to bury a statue you may as well do it right. Here are the rules ...
According to the newsletter, St. Joseph needs to be buried with his feet toward heaven. Two locations seem to be acceptable, either in the backyard or near the "For Sale" sign. I guess if you have a "For Sale" sign in your backyard as many waterfront houses do, that would be extra credit. The statue's face should point toward your house, but some people insist that the face should point toward the new house -- I guess it's up to you.
Once the house is sold, you are supposed to go to the house on a day near the closing date and dig up the statue. Then, you need to say a prayer of thanks to St. Joseph. The statue should be taken to your new house and displayed in a place of honor.
Try it! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
