The custom of common words lies in the easy-to-understand custom, and is also called "verbal words", which are catchy and familiar. Just a few words contain a lot of physical knowledge or Feng Shui theory. You can easily get up without having to be proficient in carefully reading.
Common words are different from famous sayings, and they are not as regular and beautiful as ancient poems. Usually they are short rhyme sentences passed down by word of mouth among the people, but they are also full of the people's labor wisdom and life experience. is why it is passed down from generation to generation, and it is endless.
"If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer a loss in front of you" The "word" in the common saying is actually one of the common sayings often expressed by elders. This can be said to be a pun in Chinese characters that is interesting like "mastiff dolls". It's so wonderful!
"Three rushes in front of the door, people are idle and poor in the family" is a common saying about house feng shui customs. These eight words summarize what three things cannot be facing the door of a house? Let’s listen to the long-standing chapter of wisdom Feng Shui from ancient times to the present. Is it scientific truth or pedantic dregs?
Can't plant trees in front of the door
As the ancients said, there are three rushes in front of the door, and the first rush is a dense tree. It is taboo to plant lush plants at your doorstep, especially big trees that grow lushly.
The houses in the past were not like modern high-rise buildings, towering into the clouds and sunlight. Whether it is a wealthy family or a poor family, the house structure is low and flat, and there is basically no residential structure larger than two floors.
Only the palace or city gates are equipped with a higher-level architectural configuration.
Sunlight was regarded as "yang energy" in ancient times, especially at noon (12 noon), the yang energy is the most abundant, so if lush trees are planted in front of the door, ancestors would think that the yang energy is blocked by the shade. people are not protected by yang energy for a long time, which will lead to decline in family fortune and decline in luck.
There is another saying that big trees are higher than people, and they will suppress their talents and make them unable to display their talents. Large areas of trees cover the house and will also hinder their fortune.
The doors of the house are blocked by the shade of trees, and the God of Wealth cannot enter the house. Naturally, the family fortune will slowly decline and career will continue to fail. But from a scientific point of view, the structure of an ordinary bungalow is indeed very unlikely to plant trees in front of the door.
Because if a super large plant stands at the door of your house, the primary reason is that the ventilation conditions must be very poor. As plants gradually grow and flourish, flying ant insects will also increase, which also has certain hygiene risks to the living environment.
The more important reason is that the roots of big trees are thick. As the plants grow rapidly, the surface will be broken sooner or later. The foundation of the house is close to the foundation, and there is still a risk of the house collapse.
You cannot go to the main road in front of the door
Second rush: you cannot see the road when you open the door. Another common saying with relative antonyms is: roads lead to Rome. is a metaphor for every path to success. The description of the road here is completely different.
From a sensory perspective, the road is not as strong as a big tree. It is flat and open. Then why can’t there be a road at your doorstep? Because Feng Shui has a saying: "There is affection, and it will hurt people directly."
Chinese are the best and most flirtatious people in the world. Since ancient times, Chinese people's habits and behavioral codes have had an inherent impression of "directly speaking".
So it is bent and round, gentle and gentle, which is the most primitive and stereotyped behavior in the bones of Chinese people. The preference for twilight and detour is reflected in all aspects of the people in ancient times. Even Feng Shui advocates bending and avoiding things. The long, straight and wide road facing the house will be hurt by the great "bad energy"!
And the door is opposite the road, and the house is the first to be attacked by bad luck. Unfortunately happening in the home will continue to occur. This is a very serious hedging pattern. It must not be!
But from the perspective of practical reasons, it is because the road is a major traffic artery. In ancient times, transportation tools included carriages, sedans, horses, two-wheeled carriages and other slow-speed tools. One disadvantage of these vehicles during driving is that they produce huge noise.
If the door of the house is a road, cars come and go every day, and the crowds are crowded, it will inevitably destroy the peace of the family's living environment. There are strong noise problems for all aspects of the living environment, but this is the main reason why the door should not be running on the main road.
So this cannot be completely judged as the "pot" of Feng Shui. The life experience summarized by ancestors always has reasonable sources.
The gate cannot be against Tiger
The third rush: The gate cannot be against the tiger. Tiger Head Tile Ask is a tiles made by ancient houses to decorate the eaves. The more wealthy the family is, the more complex and gorgeous the decoration of the roof is.
Because "tiger" is also pronounced as "fu", officials and powerful officials in ancient times were accustomed to using powerful animals such as dragon, phoenix, tiger, and snake to make roof tiles to show the luxurious and prosperous style of the residential style.
But ancestors also believed that tigers and other animals were too ferocious and bloody, and were ominous. If you live opposite a house with a decorative tiger head tile, that is a big taboo!
, a controversial decorative pattern, was slowly abandoned in the later stage, so the gate of the commonly verb cannot hedge against tiger-head tiles, and gradually evolved into a building that cannot face sharp patterns or angular edges.
In the eyes of the ancients, seeing the edge of the door seems to encounter a knife . The sharp thing faces the door, cutting off the smooth flow of family fortune like a knife. The interruption of blessings is an ominous sign of the decline of family fortune.
There are still many records in modern Feng Shui that the door cannot be directly facing the sharp corner. However, because the city’s land area is limited, high-rise buildings rise up, and the per capita housing area is less and less.
The attention and taboos in ancient times are no longer the primary considerations for resettlement of houses. Therefore, this kind of Feng Shui theory cannot gain a foothold in the face of real situations and has gradually been forgotten and ignored by modern people.
The wisdom of the ancients
The three rushes in front of the door seem ancient and pedantic, but careful analysis is actually scientific. It was just that the ancients lacked scientific knowledge and could not display and record objective environmental facts from a scientific perspective.
Therefore, we can only condense the spiritual wisdom of the working people in the increasing experience of life, and then summarize the common sayings passed down from oral to show future generations.
Not all the common sayings are dross. They can be passed down to this day to show that they are practical in reality. Integrate seemingly pedantic common sayings and make scientific understanding. In fact, it can become an indispensable life tip.
The creation and wisdom of the working people in ancient times are endless, and it lasts for thousands of years. It is probably impossible to summarize them all by using a pen to record and write carefully. A concise and concise saying is also the spiritual and cultural process of the Chinese working people. It not only imparts practical experience, but also leaves behind exquisite and interesting language for future generations.
