In recent decades, Western countries have begun to conduct in-depth research on the Book of Changes. People have introduced the data, logic and philosophy in the book with a scientific attitude, and thus, the Feng Shui theory has also produced a modern interpretation.
Feng Shui knowledge is actually not profound and difficult to understand. Its principle is nothing more than forming different airflows and magnetic fields with different directions. People receive different magnetic fields, which leads to good and bad fortune.
From a scientific perspective and attitude, if we follow the changes in the environment and meet the needs of life, we can also achieve the effect of Feng Shui. Therefore, Feng Shui is also called a part of environmental science, psychology and design, which emphasizes the coordination between people and the environment.
Common Feng Shui taboos in home
1.Using windowsills as beds is dangerous
Due to living environment problems, many houses use windowsills as beds. In this way, the width of the bed can be increased. Although these methods can make full use of the area of the windowsill, if you are not careful when sleeping, you will break the glass or cause a tragedy of casualties. Especially children's beds should not be too close to the windowsill, because they are curious and often attracted by things outside the window and look out of the window or climb out of the window frame, which will lead to dangerous accidents.
Therefore, it is best to place children's beds near the corners. At the same time, there should not be too many windows in the house or they should not be too low. As long as the air is circulated indoors, there will be no problem. Since the bed is too close to the window, if the window is too close to the street, it will be like sleeping on the street when sleeping. Encountering thunder and lightning or light exposure will lead to lack of sleep and psychological fear. In fact, Feng Shui is also psychology and environmental science. As long as the environment is properly improved to cater to Feng Shui, it is not a superstitious thing.
2.The head of the bed is empty and lacks security.
The bed is used as a place to rest. If the bed is left empty, there will be a lack of security and discomfort. The so-called empty means that there is no mountain or backing. When we are asleep or lying, our bodies will move around unconsciously, and our heads may go out of the range of the bed and get injured.
3.Fierce ornaments affect temper
When traveling, most people are used to buying some local specialties or handicrafts as souvenirs. For example: ceramic utensils, wood carvings, giant folding fans, sheepskin horns and even wooden swords and forks and other decorative items. They will display those Feng Shui Decortaion in the living room or indoors.
In terms of atmosphere creation, placing some ornaments with hostility, such as Japanese swords, fierce eagles and tigers, ghost masks, etc., will make people irritable and impulsive. On the contrary, hanging auspicious ornaments will add joy and bring wealth. Therefore, home furnishings should not be unique and unconventional, which is a taboo in Feng Shui. In addition, the shape of the ornaments is also very important. The Chinese talk about (meaning). If the peony flowers do not bloom and the horse is dejected, how can there be wealth and success, and how can there be great luck?
From the perspective of Feng Shui, placing different decorative items has its role, but it depends on the location to determine whether it is auspicious or not. So, what ornaments should be placed in the home to conform to the way of Feng Shui? There is no regulation for this. In principle, it should not be in strange shapes, let alone excessive stacking, otherwise it will become a (Feng Shui prop field).
Generally speaking, auspicious Feng Shui Supplies or pictures such as the Three Stars of Fortune, Longevity and Happiness, the Nine Fish (Ru) Picture, peony flowers, and peacocks spreading their tails are suitable for every family. Their lifelike shapes can not only bring auspiciousness to the residence, but also embellish the home.
If you look at those solemn portraits or sad words hanging on the wall every day, you will have fantasies and be sad. You should also pay attention to the posters and murals posted in front of children's beds. They should be vivid, interesting, inspiring and educational, and the patterns and images should not have a sense of fear.
4.The location of the stove affects wealth.
Many people only pay attention to the layout of the living room and bedroom for the Feng Shui of the house, but ignore the importance of the kitchen. The so-called: (door, master, stove) refers to the location of the main door, the master bedroom and the stove. The kitchen is a place where water and fire are often used. The "Book of Changes" has the so-called water and fire in harmony, which means that water and fire are necessary for food. With the regulation of fire and water, the harmony of yin and yang can be achieved. Therefore, to achieve the state of (Ji Ji), the family fortune can be smooth and the population can be peaceful.
According to the theory of the five elements, the east belongs to wood and the south belongs to fire, so the stove should face the south, which is the direction of fire.
In fact, the stove facing the east or south is very consistent with the five elements. Because the fuel used for cooking in ancient times was nothing more than weeds and firewood, when cooking, the stove mouth faces the east to match the wind direction and make it easy to start a fire.
The kitchen stove must be located in the evil direction and face the auspicious direction to achieve the principles of Feng Shui. If it is located in the auspicious direction, the family members will be healthy and the relationship between husband and wife will be harmonious. On the contrary, the marriage will be unhappy, there will be frequent quarrels or poor health.
Secondly, the furnishings in the kitchen, such as the stove, sink, and dish rack, must be placed in the correct position. The stove should not be sprayed by the faucet, which is easy to get dysentery and gastrointestinal diseases. If the sink and stove are in a straight line, water and fire are incompatible, which will affect the relationship and health of the couple. If the stove is placed in an L-shape with the faucet, it can avoid the conflict between water and fire, and it is also in line with the principles of Feng Shui.
