Our country is located in the northern hemisphere, and the house faces south, which is conducive to receiving more sunshine and longer sunshine time. Houses are generally sunny in the south and cloudy in the north. The house facing south is sunny, energy-saving and environmentally friendly, warm in winter and cool in summer. Sunshine can shine into the house in winter, but it is less in summer. This is not the same as the east-west house and sunshine, it is half a day.
The benefits of building a house facing south (as the saying goes, the north and the south are transparent) are obvious. When the southeast wind and southwest wind blow in summer, the house is prone to wet and cool monsoon. After the monsoon enters the house from the south, it takes away the moisture and peculiar smell in the house from the north window, making the air in the house fresh, which is undoubtedly beneficial to human health. Similarly, after the arrival of winter, the north wind and the northwest wind blow, which can also bring fresh air and take away the moisture and odor in the house from the south window.
Pay attention to feng shui. Feng shui requires that when building a house, sit facing south, hiding the wind and gathering gas!
The house is for people to live in, so we should pay attention to geomantic omen to make the house more suitable for people to live in. From the perspective of geomantic omen, the north is cold and cloudy; The south is warm and belongs to the sun; The south of northern Shaanxi belongs to yin, and the north of southern Shaanxi belongs to yang; Harmony between yin and yang is good feng shui.
According to Confucianism, in society, we should pay attention to the "three cardinal guides and five permanents", the order of the old and the young, the humble order, and the order of the monarch and the minister! Specific to the orientation and seating position, sitting facing south is respect; In quadrangles, the room facing south is the most respected; Between countries, above the imperial court, the south regards it as respect, and the north represents tribute and submission!
Therefore, from national buildings to ordinary houses, people pay attention to sitting facing south to show their desire for prosperity and dignity.
