What is the lion buried in front of the door for?

The role of lions in geomantic omen;

The main function of bronze lion is to turn evil into disaster. It is usually placed on a table, window table, bookshelf or low cabinet facing the door, or on the balcony. It is mostly used to solve the problem of bad objects on the opposite side (such as sharp corners or mirrors pointing at home). Bronze lions are made of pure copper. Hold your head high and hold your chest high. Its main function is to turn evil spirits into disaster prevention, to turn evil spirits into prosperity, and to help transport to treasure.

Lion: an auspicious beast, the king of all animals, is brave and invincible. It can not only ward off evil spirits, but also bring auspicious qi, get rid of various forms of evil spirits, and enhance the official prestige or master's yang. If the window sees adverse effects, you can put a pair of stone lions facing your mouth to melt evil spirits and have the meaning of life rights. All industries that make a living by mouth, such as lawyers and artists, can put on a prestige in the office, which helps to make money. However, the placement of lions is exquisite and cannot be placed at will. Put lions of different qualities in different positions.

Lions should be placed in the northwest.

This is because the lion was introduced to China from the western regions, so the northwest is its most active place, occupying a geographical position; Second, because lions are divinatory symbols and live in the northwest, the five elements belong to gold, so lions (especially bronze lions or golden lions) can play their best role in the northwest. At the same time, the west is also suitable for placing lions.

Lions should be paired together.

It is suggested that a lion be paired with a female lion and a male lion. And it should be divided into men and women, and the left and right cannot be reversed. When placed, the lions can't go wrong as long as they take care of each other. If one of them is broken, a brand-new pair of lions should be replaced immediately, and the remaining one should not be left in its original place.

The lion's head must face outwards.

The lion is fierce, and its Sha Qi is heavy. The feng shui layout is to prevent evil spirits from entering the house, so the lion's head should be outside. If placed in a window, the lion's head must also face out of the window.

The lion's head door can ward off evil spirits.

Lions are mostly used to ward off evil spirits outside the house, so if you can't put a stone lion at the gate, you can add a metal lion head to the gate to ward off evil spirits.

The lion looks fierce, brave and unstoppable, and is the king of all animals. Around the world, people regard lions as auspicious animals, and lion statues can be seen everywhere on five continents.

Although lions are not a local product of China, China has a unique lion culture, and lion dances will be held all over the country during the festival. People put on colorful lion coats and imitate lions to walk, sit, throw balls and jump. Among them, the dance of "two lions playing hydrangea" means endless life, family reproduction and social prosperity. The picture of the lion rolling hydrangea in auspicious patterns has the same meaning. The image of the lion often appears in Buddhist classics and Buddhist statues, and Manjusri Bodhisattva, a wise Buddha, takes the lion as a mount, thus adding auspicious significance to the lion.

The lion on the left and the lioness on the right.

In China, the ancients believed that lions could not only ward off evil spirits, but also bring auspicious atmosphere. The combination of lion culture and Kanyu culture has produced a magnificent treasure of town houses-lion statues of various materials and shapes. It not only appeared outside the halls of palaces and large houses, but also appeared at the gates of some temples, tombs and bridges, and a pair of majestic lion statues were placed.

Ancient officials and extended families were the ruling class and aristocratic class of society. Lions occupied the supreme position among all animals, and lion statues also became a symbol of authority. The lion statue outside the government gate has also become an official. The lion on the left side of the palace represents the "Taishi" and is the highest official rank in the court; The lion on the right stands for "Shao Bao" and is the bodyguard of the Crown Prince. Anyone who has been to the Forbidden City in Beijing knows that there are a pair of bronze lions in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, which are majestic and tall and beautifully cast.

The lion on the left is a lion, teasing the hydrangea with its right paw, symbolizing authority, while the lion on the right is a lioness, teasing the little lion with its left paw, symbolizing generations to come.

In ancient dwellings, the role of placing lion statues is mainly to suppress evil spirits, so that evil spirits outside the door dare not enter the house to disturb the people. Modern people also like to place lion statues, but because many people don't understand lion culture and geomantic science, they abuse and place lion statues at will, which makes the mighty lion statues lose their due "role".

Some books in Hong Kong and Taiwan believe that the lion statue should be placed in the northwest and the west, because the lion was introduced to China from the western regions, so the northwest and the west are its most familiar and active positions and can occupy a geographical position. There is some truth in this statement, but the placement method of lion statues is not so rigid. In terms of orientation, lion statues can be placed in all directions. For example, in ancient China, most officials were facing south, and lion statues were placed next to the south gate. The lion statue should be placed in consideration of the terrain.

It is more important to consider the terrain when placing lion statues. Generally speaking, the place should be high rather than low, and there should be open space in front. Only when the lion statue is condescending can it show extraordinary momentum, and only when the space is large enough can the lion be used. Some people put the lion statue in a low and narrow space, but it has formed a pattern of "the lion is trapped". Modern houses can be blocked by lion statues if they encounter unfavorable situations such as straight roads and diagonal corners.
