Christmas night the youngest child should light the candle.
The twelfth night when the twelve candles are lighting every one has a candle and they will know their own and which ever candle will burn first that person will die first.
If you count anything on a Sunday you would bring the look of them.
You should not open an umbrella inside in a house on a Sunday.- Collector
