A house is people’s residence, and having a house indicates a stable life. Then building a house is a major event in life. Building a house in rural areas is very particular. You must not only choose a good location, but also choose a good day. But Lao Li heard a saying: It is better to let the green dragon be a hundred feet tall than to let the white tiger look up. What's going on? Today, Lao Li will talk to you about the meaning of this common saying.
First of all, the Azure Dragon and White Tiger come from the ancient Four Symbols . These four Symbols are the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird , and Xuanwu . Later, people used the Four Symbols to represent the direction, which is what people often call the East Qinglong, the West White Tiger, the South Vermillion Bird, and the North Xuanwu. And what we are talking about today actually refers to the direction in the house. Generally, we build houses face north and south, which can maximize the lighting. Therefore, the left side of the house is the Oriental Qinglong direction, and the right side of the house is the Oriental White Tiger direction.
So what does it mean to "I would rather let the green dragon be a hundred feet tall than the white tiger look up"? First of all, people used to pay attention to symmetry when building houses. The main house was the center line, and the room on the left was Qinglong. The house on the left could be higher. Of course, it was too exaggerated to be high. The high in the east would not block the sun, which was conducive to using the afternoon sun to reduce the moisture in the house and also to dry clothes or grains in daily life. But if the room in the west of the White Tiger is high, it will block the afternoon sun. So there is this saying: It is better to have a green dragon a hundred feet high than to let the white tiger look up.
Some people also think that the direction of the green dragon on the left is called "Dragon Raises Head". The green dragon itself has the meaning of vitality, representing the growth energy of all things in spring. On the contrary, the direction of the White Tiger represents the bleakness of all things in autumn. This east high means the prosperity of the family.
Speaking of this, I believe everyone has already understood the meaning of this common saying. Lao Li believed that in the past, people mainly farmed, and building a house would certainly be beneficial to agricultural production. But now people no longer have to care about the "green dragon covering the white tiger", and they will not believe in the superstitious idea of "the dragon raises its head". What about the house! As long as it is spacious and bright and comfortable to live in, it is a good house. If neighborhood relations are messed up because of these ideas, it will be really not worth the effort. Friends, do you think Lao Li is right? Welcome to discuss with you.
