Now, when the doorkeeper is posted at the entrance, the two doorkeepers must face each other. Most of the door gods posted by the people are Qin and Weichi Gong, which are widely circulated. Folk doors are two symmetrical doors, and the door god usually sticks to the center of the door, aligned left and right, with the left side facing up and the right side facing down. Qin, holding a golden mace on the left, and Weichi Gong, holding a golden whip on the right, face to face, showing their concerted efforts.
It is possible to separate the left and right door gods with double doors, but most cities have single doors, and there is no single door god in the market, so the word "fu" can be used instead of the door god, which also has the functions of praying for blessings, exorcising evil spirits and exorcising ghosts.
Door god introduced:
Door gods are a kind of paintings posted on doors during the Lunar New Year. This is a custom handed down from the Han culture era. It is said that at the end of each year, the old gatekeeper will be torn off and replaced with a new one, so that the bad luck left over from this year can be driven away.
The new door god stands in the portal, which can exorcise evil spirits and avoid ghosts, and the town house can receive blessings. This statement is also more in line with the people's hearts and expresses people's expectations for a better life. In fact, for the keeper, there are also taboos, where to stick it and how high to stick it.
