Why is Sophora japonica called ghost tree?

The shade of Sophora japonica is called ghost tree.

Sophora japonica is called Sophora japonica because it is a ghost in the wood, with heavy yin and easy possession. In geomantic omen, it is forbidden to plant near houses. For example, there are many legends in ancient China, such as the pagoda tree, the old pagoda tree among the seven fairies, the big pagoda tree in Conan's dream, which is the ant hole under the pagoda tree, and so on, and ancient people also like to choose the pagoda tree when hanging themselves.

Sophora japonica is yin, also known as the ghost in the wood. It is easy to block out the sun at home, which will lead to the lack of yang in the house, chaotic gas field, poor ventilation and other adverse effects. Especially in autumn, people will feel the evil wind in the room, which will make people flustered.

Especially in geomantic omen, it is taboo to plant Sophora japonica beside the grave. People of the older generation said that the Sophora japonica in the cemetery would cause the ghost of the grave owner to adsorb on the Sophora japonica, and it was not groundless that there were haunted scenes at the grave in novels such as tomb robbery notes. If a locust tree grows on the ancestral grave, please ask Mr. Feng Shui, who is proficient in Feng Shui, to deal with it according to the actual situation, because this situation is complicated and has good or bad luck. Don't cut it down easily, which may lead to bad consequences.
