the second cutter should not be oriented in the house, because the house is full of reinforced concrete and household appliances, which will affect the magnetic needle degree. When orienting, the posture of the body must be relaxed. Hold the compass with both hands and put it at the waist. The posture of the body should be chest-holding and back-pulling. First, visually check whether the sideline of the compass is parallel to the side of the house to be measured (the wall facing the measuring surface). After feeling that it is parallel, see if the level of the compass is tilted up and down. If it is tilted, adjust the level to a horizontal position (the mercury in the level is in the middle). Then turn the compass, so that the hands of the compass and the red line of Tianchi closely overlap, and see which word the red line that keeps the front-back (not left-right) relationship with the body is pressed on, so as to orient. This is the body posture in orientation.
it takes several times to complete the four general orientations. Each orientation should be measured repeatedly according to different distances to see if it is the same sitting orientation. Pay attention to the influence of the surrounding magnetic field on the compass. When orienting, the open mobile phone, the iron and copper belt buckle at the waist, and the cars around will all have an influence on the compass, so stay away from these objects when measuring. This is also a place that needs special attention.
Two-compass orientation method
The author thinks that the method of geomantic orientation in the mysterious sky should be based on the building door. In Shen Shi's Metaphysics, it is mentioned that there are several ways to stand upright, but according to the author's personal experience, the most important and accurate way is to stand upright with the building door.
at present, there are about the following popular vertical methods.
one stands at the door of a private house. (If the unit building is the orientation of their private houses)
2. Stand by the door where the road is located.
three is the direction of the general door. (If the unit building is oriented with the main building door).
4. Orientation with the sun (taking the orientation with the sun and other factors)
Among them, the most controversial issue is how to determine the accuracy of the orientation of the private door and the orientation of the general building door. Mr. Zhong Yimin, a famous mathematician in Taiwan Province, gave priority to the former's private orientation, while some geomantic masters in Hong Kong and Taiwan adopted the method of general orientation, so the two methods of orientation were very controversial.
and after a lot of practice and verification, the author thinks that the accuracy of orientation with stair doors is higher than that with private doors. Therefore, the author hereby expresses his view that the orientation of Xuan Kong Feng Shui should be based on the orientation of the building door, and if it is not a separate house with separate rooms, it should be oriented by the door. However, when there are several doors in a conjoined building, it needs to be oriented by the center line of the building.
As we all know, the sitting direction of a yin house is determined by the sitting direction of a tombstone. When the tombstone has words, it is the direction, and the side without words is the sitting. This principle can also be applied to the orientation method of yangzhai. Because when people go to visit the grave and worship the mountain, the direction of the human body is always facing the tombstone, and when people enter the mansion, they have to walk for a while against the house number before entering the room. Even the unit building has to go through the main building door (house number) and then go to their private houses, so the door with the house number in the mansion is equivalent to the tombstone with the word in the house. And their private houses are just a part of the total unit building, so they can't be oriented by the door of private houses, otherwise it will be "losing big because of small". Therefore, the orientation of the house divided into houses must be oriented by the general door.
as for the method of determining which side of the road is the first direction in orientation, the author does not agree, because this will only cause all houses to see the road when facing the first direction. Looking at all the cases of Xuan Kong Yang Zhai in ancient books, it seems that most cases do not have the case that Yang Zhai is a waterway to the outside. This shows that this method was not adopted by the ancients.
besides, in terms of the pattern, if the side with roads is the head, it will result in two situations: the head of the astrolabe is matched with the actual shape, that is, the star is in the water and the mountain star is in the water, but there is no shape of the mountain star reaching the mountain and the mercury going up the mountain. Therefore, the method of using the road to orient is true or false. After reading the above theory, readers will distinguish between black and white.
The specific orientation method is:
People stand outside the house, facing the main building door, aim the compass at the building door,
Turn the compass to make the magnetic needle overlap with the bottom line of the red line in Tianchi. At this time, the two ends of the meridian perpendicular to the door wall of the building are sitting and orientation, and the word pressed by the meridian parallel to the body facade is the direction of the house, while the word pressed by the meridian at one end of the building is sitting.
here's an easy way to remember: sit indoors and face the door.
It can be seen that in the measurement method with the stair door as the direction, sitting is the side opposite to the door, and the direction is the side at the door.
