Buying a new house and a warm pot varies from place to place. Generally, there should be new pots, new brooms, live fish, green onions and so on. Just for good luck! Warm pots in new homes are different customs in different places. In some places, people cook in new pots from their hometown and take them to new houses to eat. Some are cooked in new pots in new houses and eaten when things are moved out of old houses. This is called "warm pot".
Two versions of the warm pot:
1. After the completion, the new house moved in, because it was a new house, and the pots, pans and cooktops were all new. Without "warm", "warm pot" is the first time to cook. At this time, friends and relatives will be invited to celebrate, and the host will host a banquet to entertain those who come to congratulate, and there will be a traditional performance of "Everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high".
There is a custom of warming the house and the pot when moving. From the perspective of geomantic omen, the house is cloudy, but people have yang. When you move into a new house, you will leave the familiar environment. Facing the unfamiliar feng shui atmosphere of the new house, you need an adaptation process, which may bring discomfort.
Therefore, friends will be invited to play in the new house, which can increase the popularity of the house. The more people there are, the stronger the yang will be, driving out the dark and dirty atmosphere in the house and improving the feng shui atmosphere.
