Feng Shui issues in the construction of koi and koi ponds
Some people always feel that Feng Shui is a bit mysterious when they hear the word Feng Shui, and think it is superstitious. I have raised many koi. I don’t believe anything at all, but in the past few years, none of the fish I have raised from the tank to the southwest corner of the balcony has survived a month! Unless it's a number of three. In fact, the principle of Feng Shui is simple and simple: if you think your home is very comfortable, everything you look at is pleasing to the eye, makes you feel attached to it, and things go smoothly, then in most cases the Feng Shui of everything in your home will be correct. One of the most common situations is that a wasteful thing is introduced into the home, but because the house spirit is very popular at that time, nothing will happen for a while, but it will eat up the house spirit and people like food, causing things to change. And ever-changing life! If you feel that there is something in your home that makes you uncomfortable, most of the time it is something that is not feng shui-friendly!
Chinese people like fish and have given it a symbol of auspiciousness from traditional folk customs. Among them, koi is especially auspicious. From ancient times, whether it is a painting or an auspicious totem, if it is expressed by fish , the paintings are all koi fish. Many people know that raising a tank of energetic koi fish has a good effect on improving Feng Shui. So how do you raise koi as a Feng Shui fish?
The biggest function of Feng Shui fish is to increase wealth and wealth, and secondly, it can dispel evil spirits and drive away evil spirits. Whether in the office or at home, when setting up a Feng Shui fish tank, the first step is to find a suitable location. Only by placing it in the right location can the fish tank enhance the realm of transshipment and not just beautify the environment. The wealth position in the home is generally in a diagonal position. No matter which direction the door is opened, the diagonal line after the door is opened is generally believed to be the wealth position in the house. The fish tank is placed here and can be seen as soon as the door is opened. It is quite eye-catching visually and can also play a role in improving wealth luck.
2. How many fish should I keep? The number of fish to raise is of course related to the size of the fish tank. Keepers should consider that too crowded a space will make it difficult for fish to survive. In addition, according to the principles of the Eight Diagrams of the Book of Changes, the number of fish is 3, 6, 7, 9, 13, 17, 18, 19, and 21.
Popular method: This method is common to everyone, and it is appropriate to raise nine fish. Ancient literati liked to make pictures of swimming fish, and they were all titled "Jiuru". What is Jiuru? Ancient books record , there is a saying in the Book of Songs: "The sky protects you, so that everything will not fail to rise, such as emerging like a mountain, such as a hill like a mausoleum, such as the direction of a river, so that it will not fail to increase. Like the perseverance of the moon, the rise of the sun, and the longevity of Nanshan, it will not fail. Collapse, like the luxuriance of pines and cypresses, all of them can be inherited." There are nine "ru" characters in this poem, and they are all auspicious words. Because "ru" has the same sound as fish, many people draw nine fishes and title them. Jiuru, as an auspicious hanging picture. It can be seen from the above that the best number of fish to raise is nine (the main factor is "longevity", the main factor is "longevity"). However, because some fish tanks are too small to keep as many as nine, you can keep three or six. , because three means "three or three inexhaustible" (mainly "life"), and six means "six or six infinite" (mainly "wealth", main "shun"). The south, Hong Kong and Macao like to use seven (the same as "out", the main word is "enterprising").
The number of fish should also be coordinated with the five elements of the household head
The formula for the number of heaven and earth in "Hetu Luoshui" goes:
"Heaven creates water, The earth produces sixty percent of it; the two of the earth produce fire, and the sky produces seventy percent of it; the three of heaven produces wood, and the earth produces eighty percent of it; the four of the earth produces gold, and the sky produces ninety percent of it; the five of heaven produces earth, and the earth produces ten percent of it."
Based on the above inference, as long as you find out the five elements of the horoscope of the head of the household, you can find out how many fish should be raised to match.
3. Have a good head
For koi, having a good head is the most important thing. This is not just true for a fish, but also for a person and a family. This is true for a collective, a nation, and a country! What does a good head look like? To put it simply, it means a round head and a wide forehead. If you think it is abstract, just look at some pictures of good fish in the forum. Special attention should be paid to the fact that there must be no dark spots on the top of the head. If there are dark spots, the owner will be defeated. When a person and a family are peaceful and happy, it is even more taboo to have a fish like this come in. Even if we don’t talk about Feng Shui, if you try staring at a fish with dark spots on its head, you will have an uncomfortable feeling. This is the role of the fierce connotation.
Like the three colors of Taisho and Showa, black is completely black and must be intertwined with red. This is another matter and is not included in this statement.
4. Regarding the color of fish
The main color of carp raised at home should be red. The red color should be fresh and the white color should be bright. It is best to look comfortable and make people feel comfortable. On the top, red, white, gold, silver, and three colors are supplemented. Some people think that all black can cure evil and transform evil spirits. However, they do not know that all black is too murderous compared to the home environment. Although evil evil spirits are killed, auspiciousness, wealth, and blessings will not be lost. , luck... all the good energy has gone, and there are tigers descending from the mountains, chickens and dogs running away, and all kinds of animals fleeing. Of course, you can raise them in a large pond or tank, but there must be enough red fish and suppress them. It's another thing to live there, or maybe there are no beasts in the mountains, so it's okay to fight ghosts. Therefore, you should choose good three colors. The three colors have the miraculous effect of intertwining dragons and phoenixes, which can drive away evil spirits and bring about auspiciousness. This is also the reason why good three colors are particularly valuable.
5. The Difference between Koi and Goldfish
Koi and goldfish are both Feng Shui fish, but they are still very different.
The advantage of koi goldfish is that their genetics are relatively stable, their color is rich, and they have a peaceful demeanor. It is easier to find the desired variety at a low price on the market. The disadvantage is that they are greedy and do not live long. After four or five years, they will become senile and too weak. There is no way to talk about their virility. They have just developed feelings and have to face the scene of aging...
The advantage of koi is that the strong yang and auspiciousness are combined into one, it is gregarious and active, and has the same life span as turtles. It is a longevity thing. In Japan, people often keep the same fish for three generations, which can bring auspiciousness to the home. Come alive. The disadvantage is that the inheritance of quality and color is unstable. Born from the same parents, no one has the same quality and color, and there are too few good ones and too many bad ones. Even if it is not too expensive to find a good fish, it will take a lot of effort to find it. ! If the quality is not good, it will have the opposite effect.
6. The position of raising fish to block evil spirits must be correct
There are several things that must be remembered when installing "Feng Shui Fish";
1. Feng Shui Fish does not It should be in a straight line with the idol.
2. The fish tank should not be placed directly on the kitchen stove
3. Feng shui fish should not be placed too high (no higher than one person’s head), and the water cannot reach the chest, otherwise it will bring disaster and disease. .
7. What should I do if the fish dies?
Some people think that raising fish to death means that they have resisted evil spirits for you, but in fact there are many situations. One is that you know how to die, and raise the fish to death no matter what. It is definitely a Feng Shui taboo. The owner must fish out the dead fish immediately and replace them with new ones. However, this situation has little impact on the home and the owner. Another situation is that the cause of death is unknown, which is often a sign. At this time, the owner must be a hundred times more careful within a month, and comprehensively review all aspects of career and safety (personal, financial, material, social, travel... etc. ), we should always have more security in mind and make up for the loopholes and defects. A friend of mine encountered this kind of thing last year. At the beginning of last year, I gave him a high-grade Danding that was only 5cm long. Three months later, he told me that the Danding suddenly disappeared and he could not find it no matter what. The reason was that there was no sign of illness. The tank, water, food, and fish were all untouched, and the other fish were all very vigorous. As a result, within ten days, something big happened to his business, from buying a house and a car to being everywhere. Take on debt for avoidable reasons.
