The first is about the orientation of the bed. As we all know, the bed should of course be in the bedroom. After choosing a bedroom, you can find a suitable place to sleep. The orientation of the bed refers to which direction the bed should be placed in the bedroom and which direction the bed should be oriented. According to the ancient geomantic theory, the bed should be placed in "the life is auspicious and the house is auspicious". It means that the orientation of the bed needs to be based on its own eight characters, and the seats in the whole house have always been fixed.
For example, if the owner likes the wood in the eight characters, he can put the bed on the east side of the bedroom. If you like gold, you can put it in the west. When installing a bed, the orientation of the head and tail of the bed is very important. Generally speaking, if the owner likes wood, the head of the bed faces east and the end of the bed faces west; If the owner likes gold, the head of the bed faces west and the end of the bed faces east; If you like water, the head of the bed should face north and the end of the bed should face south; If you like fire, the head of the bed should face south and the end of the bed should face north; If you like dry soil, you should face the bed southwest or northwest; If you like wet soil, you should turn your bed to the southeast or northeast. ...
When considering the use of eight characters, we should also consider the good or bad luck of the house. For example, if you sit in a house with northeast facing southwest (Genshan Xiang Kun), the hexagram of southwest (Kun) is "the elephant of Erhei disease", so when you go to bed, you should avoid this unlucky direction and don't sit in northeast facing southwest. Of course, feng shui turns in turn, and even if it faces Ji when you are in bed, bad luck will turn in this direction. At this time you need to hang a string of six copper coins to melt it.
After the orientation of the bed is determined, it is also necessary to consider whether the surrounding environment is in harmony with the bed. For example, there should be no beams above the bed, and there should be no chandeliers and ceiling fans above the bed. If these things are pressed on the bed, it will not only affect luck, but also make the owner sick or injured. There are also some customs, that is, the bed should not be placed along the direction of the door, but perpendicular to the direction of the door. But if the room is small, the vertical bed will hedge against the door. If the door is facing the bed or a part of the bed, a screen or curtain should be set to cover it.
Secondly, emphasize bedtime. The bed is the most important thing in the family. The so-called moving, in fact, is mainly to install the bed. Therefore, in the China lunar calendar, moving is called "fixing the bed", and timely moving generally refers to the time of fixing the bed. When to go to bed, first of all, check the zodiac calendar, choose a suitable zodiac auspicious day for going to bed, choose a good zodiac auspicious day, and put the bed neatly when choosing a good zodiac auspicious day.
Not all auspicious days marked "bed-fixing" in the old calendar are suitable for bed-fixing, which also varies from person to person. From a big perspective, when choosing an auspicious day, we should also consider the owner's zodiac sign, avoid the day when there is a conflict with the owner, and avoid the person who has a conflict with the owner in bed, so as to create a harmonious and auspicious atmosphere.
As for the actual time to put the bed on the bed, you can choose a good auspicious day to move the bed, or you can move the bed in a predetermined position before that, but don't adjust it. Wait until the auspicious day, then adjust the bed.
The third is the custom ceremony of fixing the bed. These customs and ceremonies vary from place to place. Generally speaking, it is enough to follow local customs and rituals. These customs and rituals are well known to the elderly, and they can be asked to be consultants for bedding. One of the more * * sexual bed-making ceremonies is to make some necessary sacrifices. In some places, there is also the custom of offering sacrifices to the god of bed. Because most of these customs have been lost or changed, there is no need to copy them mechanically. When you are in bed, you only need to worship, burn incense and pray sincerely in front of Buddha, Bodhisattva or Kitchen God.
