My feng shui view is the first twelve words:
Practicality, convenience, comfort, safety, hygiene and beauty are good feng shui, which is the general program, the most basic principle and the foundation of feng shui. If these basic foundations are not reached, it should be said that there is no feng shui at all; On this basis, we can further explore the deeper Feng Shui. Measured by these standards, it is both practical and easy to master. Consistent with the above viewpoint, feng shui is interpreted positively; Contrary to the above view, Feng Shui is negatively interpreted. Residents in modern residential quarters are conceived, designed and built according to the concept of practicality, convenience, comfort, safety, hygiene and beauty, and can only be judged according to this concept. With the ancient concept of "Luo (mule) horse", it can only be that the bull's head is not the horse's mouth.
Nowadays, houses are basically free of ancestral gods, that is, adding gods, or adding them at will temporarily, which is cheap and not in the position of the central axis of the house. Due to the change of this core issue, all the taboos in the house have been completely lifted, including many specious problems that are now raging. Ancient houses, if there is no ancestral temple, are taboo in taboos, and the great evil in great evils; God's throne can be abandoned or set at will, and some prohibitions cannot be broken. The so-called feng shui master is just a brain-dead, in name only.
How to buy a house is based on everyone's heart. The most important sign of heart orientation is "like". Everyone likes different things. Love is good feng shui. I don't like it. I feel depressed and even uncomfortable wherever I go. No matter how good this place is, it is also a good place for others, not the good feng shui that the parties need. Office workers mainly choose convenient transportation, taking care of their children to go to school, choosing the school near, the elderly living, the park near, shopping convenient, and shopping near.
The size of the living room door measured by Lu Banchi is unlucky. Is it related to Feng Shui? What do we do-look good, beautiful will be auspicious; Only the opposite is unlucky. In reality, you can find any number, both auspicious and unlucky. Why do you think from only one direction is that people's spiritual world and development trend are biased? Why do you think like this, not like this? Different ways of thinking will inevitably lead to various results in the future.
What is the best feng shui? -The best feng shui is mental balance; No greed, no desire, no luxury and no desire is good feng shui.
Does raising children have anything to do with feng shui? -raising children must be related to feng shui. The subjective condition of geomantic omen is the ideological basis of human beings; The objective condition of geomantic omen is the surrounding environment. The two complement each other and will definitely affect children's physical and mental growth.
Feng shui is the right choice for living terrain. The conclusion I have drawn from hundreds of sites is that most of them have the characteristics of geomantic omen, regulating qi and compass, which obviously should have a certain cultural meaning of compass, but it is basically a one-vote veto, limited by topography and conditions, leaving no continuous population. The example I found in reality is that the terrain is illegal, the living and production conditions are lacking, and the use of Feng Shui compass is like a child's play, which is meaningless. That's why I said, "Practical, convenient, comfortable, safe, hygienic and beautiful is good feng shui. What is Feng Shui? It is more beneficial to think from a scientific perspective. " In the past, it was impossible to build houses in many areas. Now there are steel bars, cement, glass, running water, electricity and gas, which can be built and built. High-quality building materials overcome the limitation of inferior terrain. Wood, mud, paper window, carrying water, thatch, loose fire and steel bar, cement, glass wall, tap water, electricity and gas are definitely two geomantic meanings, which also represent the progress of the times. Science has brought unprecedented new horizons to mankind. In the era of wood, mud, plastering windows, carrying water and hanging water, thatching and relaxing fire, we can only choose low-lying areas with lee and sun, and houses can only be short. Low-lying and low-rise buildings have a basic defect: dark and damp, poor ventilation, poor dryness, poor air quality, easy to mildew and pathological changes. Steel bars, cement, glass walls, tap water, electricity and gas are all likely to make buildings move upwards, and tall buildings are all possible, which are obviously bright and have good ventilation and drying performance. For example, in the past, the platform-like high-rise area was not suitable for building because of the limitation of building materials. Now it has the advantages of building materials, which can not only build houses, but also be better than depressions in brightness, air circulation and waterproof performance, which is more conducive to people's physical and mental health.
The quality of a city's geomantic omen does not depend on the natural geomantic omen in a narrow area, but on the basis of the overall natural geomantic omen, which dominates the city's political geomantic omen, economic geomantic omen and human geomantic omen. Among them, the government is the most typical political feng shui feature. For example, in the 1980s, there was a township government across the river. Due to the existence of government agencies, there is only one commercial outlet, and there are more than a dozen shops on the other side of the river that are the largest in the local area, forming a small and lively market. Due to various reasons, township government agencies moved to other places, where there was a "sudden cooling" immediately. In less than three months, more than a dozen of the biggest stores can't keep going, and the three small shops left are just a stall, without the prosperity of the past. A small township government has no independent financial function foundation, and its influence ability can bring such a huge difference in geomantic effect, not to mention a larger government agency with independent decision-making function and financial function, and its influence geomantic effect can be imagined to be greater. It can also be inferred from this example that the geomantic omen of a city is determined by political geomantic omen, economic geomantic omen and humanistic geomantic omen formed on the basis of natural geomantic omen. The close combination of political geography geomantic omen, economic geography geomantic omen, human geography geomantic omen and natural geography geomantic omen is a complete geomantic omen.
Cities have obviously got rid of human dependence on natural geography and geomantic omen on a larger scale. Developed transportation, the sky, underground, ground and roads are as dense as cobwebs, which has reached the point of omnipotence, forming a networked transportation convenience, without the restriction of relying on and using pure water as in ancient times. The realization of tap water has completely overcome the fact that weeds make a living. The realization of electricity and gas has overcome the dependence on a single natural fuel-firewood and grass. And so on, including the realization of other human factors, the realization of these conditions, completely get rid of human dependence on physical geography and geomantic omen, but also strongly prove the more magical facts of science.
What is Feng Shui? The first is the conditions for human survival. The second is better human living conditions. Third, profitable business, that is, choose good operating conditions. Think with a scientific mind. For example, what is the geomantic omen of Jiayi Garden in Huizhou? The answer is: it is the highlight of modern science and technology, that is, the feng shui of modern science and technology, such as: no reinforced concrete? Can you build such a tall house? There is no running water. Is there water there? Can people live there without water? Without water, feng shui, no matter how good it is, is just a moon in the water and a flower in the mirror. Feng Shui, Feng Shui, can meet people's survival and living conditions is the key. Another example: does a pipe pass through the top of your yard, which affects Feng Shui? The answer is: there is a pipe passing through the roof of your house. If it is not handled properly, it will affect your sight and beauty. There is the possibility that the pipeline will hinder the future space reuse (such as the obstacle of building renovation and heightening), and there are also technical problems of the pipeline (such as insufficient technical performance of the pipeline and potential safety hazards), which are all factors that affect Feng Shui. There is no feng shui influence in other senses. Using modern scientific thinking can better explain and clarify the problem.
The essence of geomantic omen is expressed in modern Chinese: creation and choice have superior living conditions and advantages; Rational use of natural objective conditions and laws; Conform to the main points of regularity, symmetry, necessity, rationality, comfort, practicality, convenience, superiority, safety, aesthetics and hygiene; Conforming to the principles of mechanics and science; Common sense and logic are both good feng shui. There is no mysterious feng shui that is puzzling! The essence of ancient geomantic omen is to correctly choose superior natural conditions to adapt to human survival. In places that are not suitable for human survival, I have come to the conclusion from hundreds of sites I have seen that human beings were completely eliminated there and did not continue to today's population. Geomantic omen emphasizes advantages, convenience and practicality, and is more suitable for human survival and life. If we use traditional geomantic theory to cut into the field of modern architectural design, we should be able to use modern high-tech design theory to cut into the field of traditional geomantic design. We should have a correct understanding of Feng Shui: for example, plants can purify the air, beautify the environment and promote people's physical and mental health, which means that plants have a strong Feng Shui function. Healthy, energetic, can earn a lot of money, do not need to spend medical expenses, that is, plants have the effect of prosperous wealth. Scientific and positive understanding can explain the problem better. For example, the high-rise air is good and the sanitation is good, which is the main thing. On the top floor, the measures to prevent leakage and lightning strike are stronger, and of course there are other precautions. Feng shui can only remind people to think from multiple angles, and modern science and technology are more accurate in technology. Traditional architecture is based on the theory of centripetal axial symmetry. Modern architecture is mainly practical and functional. The two have different foundations. For example, the ancient geomantic omen theory developed on the basis of traditional ancient buildings, just like the ancient carriage driving technology, can be used to guide the driving of modern cars? In ancient times, natural geomantic omen dominated, while in modern cities, man-made geomantic omen dominated, and their foundations were completely different. How can we stick to the rules? For example, I want to connect a water pipe under the checkout counter of a clothing store, which is convenient for washing cups. Do you know that Feng Shui is particular? The answer is: convenience, comfort, hygiene and safety are good feng shui. On the contrary, feng shui is not good.
Another example: does the fracture of the door brick affect Feng Shui? The answer is: the change of the firmness of the house and the structural damage will affect the geomantic omen of the house. The geomantic omen of the house is first of all the practicality, durability and safety of the house, which is the service life of the house.
Will putting a fire water tank in front of the balcony affect Feng Shui? -whatever is beneficial to human society will not affect Feng Shui; Only things that are not beneficial to human society, even harmful things, will affect Feng Shui. Putting a fire box in front of the balcony does not hinder various activities, but plays a role in protecting the safety of the house. It is impossible to hinder Feng Shui, but it is beneficial to Feng Shui.
Use the standards of regularity, symmetry, necessity, rationality, comfort, practicality, convenience, superiority, safety, aesthetics and hygiene to evaluate and consider various things respectively. Conforming to regularity, symmetry, necessity, rationality, comfort, practicality, convenience, superiority, safety, aesthetics and hygiene is good feng shui. On the contrary, it will be bad, that is, feng shui is not good. No matter how reasonable the layout of geomantic omen is, it can only be regarded as a strange talk, far from being regular, symmetrical, necessary, reasonable, comfortable, practical, convenient, beneficial, safe, beautiful and hygienic. No matter how good feng shui is, the core must be to better adapt to human life and production activities. For example, the door of the master bedroom opens on the background wall. What does feng shui say? The answer is: the master bedroom door opens on the background wall, which is symbolic and symbolic. You can improvise when you get to the scene. The principle of justice is: rationality, beauty, practicality, convenience and safety are the principles of justice. On the contrary, it is crooked ways. Another example: Feng Shui, which side should the door be closed on? -It is convenient and practical. Install the left side when it is practical and convenient, and install the right side when it is practical and convenient. If it is inconvenient and impractical to install the door seal, don't install the door seal, it is too much trouble, asking for trouble. Anything that is inconvenient, impractical, in the way and asking for trouble is a taboo of Feng Shui.
Regularity: regularity means: rational planning and layout, seeing the spirit in complexity. Is to have a unified and neat standard, uniform, not in a mess. In modern cities and rural areas, those chaotic buildings cancel each other out and contradict each other. From the perspective of geomantic omen, they are out of order. In fact, where there is more poverty and poverty. For example, my home used to be the east gate, but now it's changed to the south gate, but the terrain in the west is high. When it rains, the rain flows through the front door and washes the southwest corner. What is this feng shui? The answer is: the terrain is irregular, irregular. It is necessary to comb the terrain to make the rainwater and running water standardized and orderly. The current situation is that running water is like a headless fly, scurrying about. For the disorderly flow of water, or for running water. Feng shui is like this, so will personnel.
Symmetry: the core of symmetry is to have center and focus; Starting from the center and focus of the house, seduce human nature, act and be a person with a center and focus, that is, human nature should have a backbone, not a confused fly. Traditional wind is actually a symmetrical theory and a geomantic aesthetic inspired by the beauty of nature and human body. From the perspective of circle, square and right, the human body is actually an irregular concave-convex body, but one of the main aesthetic characteristics of the human body is left-right symmetry. As the geomantic concept of the unity of heaven and man, the basic core embodied in traditional architecture is: left-right symmetry, front-back symmetry, and seeking balance in symmetry.
Must: First, it means that these structures and settings are necessary, not redundant, but indispensable. Not optional; Yes, it has no substantive significance; No, things that have no impact on normal life. These structures and environments are what human beings must serve. Second, it is not suitable to change these structures and settings, that is, it must be like this. For example, why did you buy two seats? Need, must, practical, comfortable, love, appreciate, feng shui must be good.
Does the frosted glass at home affect Feng Shui after two bedrooms? The answer is: whether this kind of question is necessary or not is the standard to measure the quality of Feng Shui. Household frosted glass is an essential part of home houses and furniture. It is not a toxic or harmful substance. The installation is firm and safe, and does not affect the geomantic omen. It's just that frosted glass is not an essential part of home houses and furniture, but a redundant part, which is a toxic and harmful substance. If it is not installed firmly and safely, it will affect Feng Shui.
Practicality: For example, where windows can only be found, good lighting effect means good feng shui. In other places, the lighting effect is not good or there is no lighting at all, which is actually bad feng shui. For another example, it is best to choose the location of drilling wells by means of feng shui and qi management, but if there is no water, it will be futile and meaningless at all. Therefore, it is more practical to choose the position that can ensure drainage first when drilling wells. Another example is: How about hanging copper coins from copper gourd and Emperor Wu near the bedside window? ———— No practical value. If there is no anti-theft safety net or window, the bedside cannot be close to the window, which is unsafe. Finding all the emperors' money, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, will not solve the problem. On this issue, installing anti-theft safety windows can offset the feng shui money of hanging 10 thousand emperors. Another example: What's wrong with putting a bath bucket in the bedroom? The answer is: it's definitely best to put things where they should be. A bath bucket in the bedroom is definitely not the place to put it. However, things have always changed. If it is appropriate to act flexibly, it can be put in the bedroom as long as it does not affect or hinder normal traffic and activities and does not affect Feng Shui. Another example: sitting in the north-south bunk, I want to seal the glass and install the glass door at the same time. Please ask the master to seal that side and keep it as a door. The answer is: I'm not there, so I can't answer for sure. I can only answer in principle: first, it is convenient to get in and out. Second, according to the space of the house and the purpose of the house (that is, according to what the house is going to do), in line with the principle of rational use of space, convenience and practicality, both parties comprehensively consider the installation side of the door.
Finally, what is Feng Shui? It can also be understood and defined from other different directions:
In order not to hurt the self-esteem of the failed and affected party, not to sprinkle salt on the wound of the failed and affected party, not to prick the needle in the heart of the failed and affected party, and to give these people reasonable psychological comfort, Feng Shui can also be called "retrogression". Many tragedies are obviously caused by subjective mistakes, and many are obviously subjective "helpless" tragedies. If you look for the reason subjectively, it will undoubtedly hurt the psychology of the parties again, and the parties to the tragedy are always worried about the occurrence of the tragedy and cannot dispel their doubts. At this time, Feng Shui always leads people to look for reasons from outside the objective, that is, to find a reasonable explanation from the definition of "intangible Feng Shui terms", which is actually to induce the parties to look for it. This way of "finding a step" for others, objectively evaluated, can also play a role in releasing some psychology, but from the perspective of Feng Shui development, it has a great negative effect, which seriously hinders and interferes with individual subjective efforts and struggles, leading to the failure of Feng Shui.
In order to blame the subjective responsibility on the objective, Feng Shui can also be called "ruffian helplessness". If it is clearly a crime of corruption and bribery, Feng Shui can be defined as "a fortune star has committed a crime and brought heaven"; Obviously, it is caused by wealth, and Feng Shui can be defined as "killing wealth and encountering ghosts". In short, the parties concerned are "innocent" but "wrong" in geomantic omen. This kind of blaming the subjective responsibility on the director can objectively reduce the ideological burden and satisfy some vanity; But on the other hand, it induces people not to look for reasons from personal subjective direction, not to work hard from personal subjective direction, but to shirk their responsibilities from other directions, which is also the biggest shortcoming, mistake and weakness of Feng Shui.
This is associated with other scenes. One crisp autumn day, a lovely mother and her beloved baby were playing outdoors. The baby accidentally fell down and began to cry loudly. The lovely mother quickly picked up the baby and patted the dust on her body with distress. Then, facing the farm, the lovely mother stamped her foot several times and said, "This damn farm made my baby fall." At this time, the beloved baby burst into tears, took a few breaths, answered and cried, "Go home and get the hoe, and be sure to dig it out." So the lovely mother took her beloved baby home to find a hoe. This is a true portrayal and epitome of some practices of Feng Shui.
My ancestral grave faces south, there is a well within ten meters northwest, and there is a road in the middle. Does this well affect the ancestral graves? -For a geomantic treasure, there is a well ten meters northwest of the cemetery, which definitely has an impact on geomantic omen. The reason is that for the emperor, every day is in a high-risk and target position. If anything goes wrong, he will go through his heart and fall into the abyss. The tragic image is absolutely unbearable. For ordinary people, it doesn't matter whether there are wells in the cemetery every two or three meters, because ordinary people are not afraid of falling into the endless bottomless abyss and never worry about breaking into pieces. The reason is that ordinary people are at the bottom of the abyss and are no longer afraid of falling deeper, so nothing will happen again. Therefore, people also call Feng Shui "the skill of emperors"; Feng Shui is called "the study of emperors".
To truly understand the meaning of the word "Feng Shui", it is best to go to the desert and plateau in the northwest of China to experience a period of life, experience it for yourself and feel what the wind is. What is water? Northwest desert, thousands of miles away, no vegetation, no water, low temperature, human beings and all living things can not survive; In contrast, in the humid and warm climate of southeast China, a seed can take root and sprout on a stone and grow lovely plants, and you will know what is the real driving force of life-that is only water; Now those big deserts will become oases and full of vitality in a very short time as long as the water storage reaches a certain degree of saturation. At high altitude, altitude sickness is severe and breathing is difficult, so you will think about how pleasant the air at low altitude is and how great the air is-that is, how windy it is.
Feng shui, that is, some kind of taboo. China people have specific taboos of China people, foreigners have specific taboos of foreigners, and all ethnic groups have specific taboos of all ethnic groups. The specific taboo of China people is called Feng Shui, and the specific taboo of foreigners is not necessarily called Feng Shui, but it does not mean that foreigners do not have specific taboos. Taboos are caused by many factors, such as customs, views on something, taboos on certain animals and plants, taboos on certain words, cultural meanings and implications. For example, there can be no "trees" and "people" in the walled yard explained by the word "sleepy" and "prisoner", which is a typical joke; Doors and windows should be small, but not too big, which is a taboo custom evolved from the lack of wood; Red evil spirit is a ban evolved from some animals' special fear of red; The bedside cannot face west, which comes from the Buddhist and Taoist culture that "death is liberation, crossing to the western paradise, and the west is the destination of death" and so on. "the west is where people die" also comes from the explanation of sunrise and sunset. Since the sunset belongs to the sun in one day, people's life is as brilliant as the sun and belongs to the paradise of the west. Around this ban, there are other statements attached to this ban, which further explain it ... and so on; Originated from myths, such as peach trees can ward off evil spirits, which are typically spread by myths and legends; Due to the unbearable heat, there are many "evil spirits" in the west drying room; Because of the cold weather, there are many taboos on the northwest gate and windows ... and so on. In order to better find the reason and answer from the objective outside, and not to sprinkle salt from the subjective inner pain, the sharp, angular, vertical, intersecting, archery objects, stones and broken mountains seen in the door, window and field of vision are naturally physical examples of evil. No matter in the past or now, it must be easy to find one or two characteristics of pointed, angular, vertical, intersecting, bow-shaped objects, stones and broken mountains that can be seen in the field of vision of doors and windows. People must have a sense of balance and comfort when they find that one or two are not subjective but objective hazards in the most difficult moment.
Taboos, some of which are reasonable and scientific, and some of which are customized, do not mean that they are all reasonable and scientific. Such as: superstition, pregnancy can not customize the wardrobe? -this custom can only be considered that there is such a ban in a very small number of places and people, and it cannot represent universality. It is necessary to be quiet during pregnancy, and it is not suitable for moving things and building at home. There are real examples to prove it. But it doesn't mean that the wardrobe outside can't be customized. It is also possible not to move into the house immediately after customization. If there is such a ban, we should treat it differently and rationally, and it is more reasonable to think and explain it with modern scientific knowledge and common sense of daily life.
