Geomantic omen, like other traditional things in China, is based on Confucian classics and Taoist thoughts and is closer to ancient geography. A little farther away from the ancient buildings. People who know feng shui and ancient geography must know Confucian classics, while ancient buildings are just a profitable craft for craftsmen. As craftsmen, most non-advanced intellectuals don't need to know Confucian classics. After the practical value of geomantic omen is closely related to architecture, it gradually breaks away from Confucian classics and becomes a craft. Feng shui, a high-end commodity, is low-end, divorced from the theoretical basis and becomes a castle in the air. Gradually became this superstitious appearance, this vulgar reputation.
Because many traditional things, such as geomantic omen, traditional Chinese medicine, etc., are based on Confucian classics, but now people with knowledge and no culture accept the world outlook based on western logic, and they don't know that there is another traditional world outlook based on Confucian classics. If they come into contact with some conclusions and phenomena of the latter, the former can't be explained, but it is a bit reliable. Isn't it confusing that there are still differences between the products of a completely unreliable world view like science fiction? So these are unscientific, because they cannot be explained.
However, some people think that Feng Shui is definitely not superstitious and should be classified as astronomical geography. I use a simple metaphor: a negative, internalized and externalized person who is afraid of things, if he lives in a dark or even humid house, will aggravate his negative mentality and have no intention to do things. More timid. On the contrary, if you move to a relatively independent and sunny house for a long time, it will stimulate his initiative and stop being so negative! On the contrary, an irritable, savage and easily angry person will be more anxious and irritable if he lives in such a house again. If you live in a relatively quiet and cool house for a long time, you can change his personality relatively. If the personality is different, the fate will be affected, and that negative person may start to fight for his own life one day. That spicy person may have a better interpersonal relationship. Naturally, fate has also changed. This is a simple and basic example, but in fact, it is much more complicated than this.
In fact, people today are also influenced by the older generation. It is a simple truth that there is faith and there is no unbelief.
