Recently, I have received questions from several friends about raising fish in the Year of the Rat in 2008. I would like to answer them all here. Raising fish to make money is relatively common, but you must pay attention to six important issues:
The first is why you want to raise fish
The second is the shape of the fish tank
The third is the number of fish
The fourth is the species of fish
The fifth is the color of the fish
The sixth is the taboos of fish
< p>The following will make a detailed analysis of these key points to provide important reference for all friends who plan to raise fish to promote wealth and prosperity in the Year of the Rat in 2008.1. Why should we raise fish in our house?
“Mountains are noble, and water is wealth.” “Water is wealth.” The dispersion of wealth and the accumulation of wealth are absolutely related to water. Water includes rivers, ditches, and roads, and of course, water is used to make and accumulate wealth. fish tanks, water wheels, feng shui wheels, etc. Feng Shui is naturally inseparable from "water", so traditional Feng Shui attaches great importance to both "incoming water" and "outgoing water", believing that this will have a great impact on the fortune of the house. Thinking about the rich places in the world, most of them have abundant water resources, and there are seaports, lakes, rivers, etc. nearby. This is the best proof.
Generally, fish tanks placed in company offices or residences have two functions. The positive function is to gather qi, that is, to gather strong qi, so that wealth can be gathered and prosperous. Another function is to block evil spirits (those who hurt people invisible are called evil spirits). That is to say, the power of water can be used to block the decaying and imprisoned Qi, so that it will not hurt people invisible. Therefore, people believe: "Qi will disperse when it rides on the wind, and boundary water will Then stop." Therefore, water has the dual functions of stopping weak Qi and gathering strong Qi. Water, especially flowing water, can stimulate good or bad luck in its location. Different sects have different usages, but generally they start with the number, color, and variety of fish. For example, the number of fish is used to match the hexagram. , using the color of fish to represent certain five elements. In fact, the type of fish alone can bring good luck and avoid bad luck.
Because the fish tank is a vessel that holds "water", in addition to its ornamental value, the fish tank is also regarded as a tool for replenishing luck. If used properly, it can ward off evil spirits and increase wealth. The growth of fish and water makes the room more lively and has a positive effect on the feng shui of the house. Therefore, it is often closely related to the wealth of the owner of the house and the company. The fish tank has a strong effect of promoting wealth. But everything has two sides, and water is also a double-edged sword. If used improperly, it will not only fail to prosper wealth, but will also damage it.
Those whose birth horoscopes are short of water can replenish their luck by raising fish, which is of great benefit. Those whose birth horoscopes avoid water are not suitable for raising fish, so they should not keep fish to avoid loss of wealth. If you don’t know whether your birth horoscope is suitable for fish farming, the easiest way is to verify it based on your past experience. If you raised fish at home in the past, your family luck would be prosperous. You should continue to raise fish even if you move to a new house. However, if you have raised fish in your home in the past and your home is uneasy, you should stop raising fish as soon as possible, and even objects related to water according to Feng Shui theory should not be placed in the living room.
2. The five elements must be considered when choosing a fish tank
From the perspective of Feng Shui, in principle, irregular or triangular fish tanks should not be used. The best fish tanks for fish farming are rectangular or round. shape. Round fish tanks are most suitable, but due to factors such as house structure, round ones are rare. The shape of the fish tank varies depending on where it is placed.
The relationship between the shape of the fish tank and the five elements is as follows:
1. The five elements of a round fish tank belong to gold, which can produce prosperous water, so it is an auspicious sign.
2. The five elements of a rectangular fish tank belong to wood. Although it releases water, the two are related and can be used.
3. For a square fish tank, the five elements belong to earth, and earth can overcome water, showing the power of restraint. Therefore, it is not suitable to choose a square fish tank with five elements belonging to earth.
4. For a hexagonal fish tank, six is ??the number of water, so the five elements belong to water and can be used.
5. Triangular, octagonal or even polygonal fish tanks, the five elements belong to fire, and water and fire are mixed, so they are not suitable for use in financial positions to attract wealth.
According to the above five-element analysis, the most auspicious shapes are rectangle, circle and hexagon, which are beneficial to the financial position and promote wealth. I hope everyone will pay more attention when choosing a fish tank in the future.
The fish tank must be placed in the house or office according to the orientation: square or rectangular------placed at the sides; triangle------placed at the corner; round------ Place it in the center or at the door; Hexagon------This shape should not be placed because it has strong evil spirits; Semi-circle------Put it on the side;
3. The number of fish to be raised is not random
The shape of the fish tank is particular, so is there a certain pattern to the number of fish to be raised? In fact, in addition to considering the colorful fish species, the number of fish should be considered to be an odd number. Because in Feng Shui, Luo Shu numbers are used to match the number of fish. Four and nine are the innate golden numbers, and seven is the acquired golden number. Now I will take the trouble to introduce in detail two different basis for determining the number of fish:
1. The number of fish is determined according to the river map
The number of heaven and earth generated in "Hetu Luoshui" The formula goes: "Heaven produces water, and the earth produces 60% of it; the second of the earth produces fire, and the sky produces 70% of it; the third of the sky produces wood, and the earth produces 80% of it; the fourth of the earth produces gold, and the sky produces 90% of it; the fifth of the sky produces earth, and the earth produces 100% 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.
Most people advocate using odd numbers for the number of fish to be raised, because the odd number is a masculine number. Some people also advocate that the decision should be made according to the divination of the person in charge of the company: if the person is named Kan, the number of fish will be one, six or seven. For Li people, the number of fish is two, seven or nine. For people born in Zhen and Xun, the number of fish is three, eight or eleven. The number of fish for those who are born with stems and those who are destined to be fulfilled is four, nine, or thirteen. For Kun and Gen people, the number of fish is five, ten or fifteen. This is based on the figures of the Five Elements of the River Diagram and is only provided for reference. For the fate hexagram, you can refer to the relevant chapters of the book "Chinese Feng Shui Practical Dictionary" edited by me, and you will know it at a glance. But according to experience, as long as there is living water (moving people), it will be effective.
The details are as follows:
Rat and pig - for water: 1 or 6
Tiger and rabbit - for wood: 3 or 8
Snake, horse - for fire: 2 or 7
Monkey, chicken - for gold: 4 or 9 or 5
Dragon, dog, cow, sheep - Earth: 5, 10, 4, 9
For example, if the head of the household or the person in charge of the company's five elements belongs to "water", then he should raise one light-colored fish and six dark-colored fish. , such as a silver-white lucky head, or six dark-colored fish, such as a dark red lion head, to match the "water" number of one and six, and the rest can be deduced in the same way.
2. The number of fish to be raised is determined according to the Lua Shu number.
In addition to determining the number of fish to be raised by the above method, the number of fish to be raised can also be determined by the Lua Shu number to match the number of fish.
One piece - a piece of white water can bring wealth.
Two - Two black soils overcome water, which is bad for wealth.
Three - Three green trees release water, which is bad for wealth.
Four green trees - four green trees, although they release water, the four green trees are Wenqu stars, which are considered auspicious.
Five items - Five loess soils overcome water, which is detrimental to wealth.
Liu Tiao - Six platinum generates water, which is good for wealth.
Qi Tiao - Qi Chi Gold generates water. Although it is an evil star, it has the feeling of mutual support and is regarded as auspicious.
Batiao - Babai earth overcomes water, but Babai is the left auxiliary star and the auspicious star.
Nine Purple Fires - Nine purple fires, but the weak star on the right is a lucky star, which can bring wealth.
If there are more than ten items, round numbers are removed. For example, twenty items are treated as two items, and fifteen items are treated as five items.
4. The type of fish you raise should consider yourself and the industry
Speaking of this, some people will ask, what kind of fish is better to raise? The answer is that it is a fish that is long-lived and easy to raise. Most people raise goldfish, because goldfish have relatively strong vitality, are relatively durable, and are easy to take care of. They are not suitable for raising expensive and delicate fish. In addition, companies can also consider the following varieties for fish farming:
Dragon Spit Pearl, the body of the fish is like a sharp knife, and the fish is relatively ferocious. Generally, it is used to point towards the evil side to block the evil. effect. In addition, it is very effective in enhancing wealth. Because the fish nature is strong, it is generally beneficial to wealth. Many so-called "side" industries with high risks but huge profits, such as mahjong parlors and nightclubs, are very popular. Feed it.
Black mollies, black peony and other fish with black bodies are generally used to ward off evil spirits. Among them, black mollies are better at blocking evil spirits, while black peony is better at blocking evil spirits and attracting evil spirits. It has effects on both aspects of wealth, but its nature is relatively soft.
Colorful gods, koi, goldfish, etc. are brightly colored and mild in nature. Most people use them to make money. The function of these fish is to harmonize interpersonal relationships, reduce obstacles in work, and increase substantial wealth. In terms of growth, the speed is relatively slow, but because luck has become smoother, the person involved is also in a happier mood.
5. The color of the fish should be chosen carefully
The color of the fish, to a certain extent, has a more or less complete impact on the motivation to attract wealth. Therefore, when we choose fish, we should also pay attention to this point. Generally, the decision is based on the color matching of the five elements and the restraint of life:
If the color of the fish is gold or white, it means that the five elements belong to gold, and gold can generate water. Therefore, the power to attract wealth is strong.
The color of fish is black, blue or gray, which means that the five elements belong to water. Water can bring wealth and has a strong power to attract wealth.
If the color of fish is cyan or green, it means that the five elements belong to wood. Wood will release water and has a weak power to attract wealth.
The color of fish is yellow or brown, and the five elements belong to earth. Earth can overcome water, and its power to attract wealth is very weak.
Generally speaking, most people choose red, white, and black as auspicious colors. Many business owners prefer six reds and one black, with red as gold and black as water. Metal can generate water, and water can make water prosperous. One and six combine to form the innate water number, which is very auspicious.
6. Fish farming taboos that you must know
There are several taboos when raising fish and placing fish tanks. When raising fish in the Year of the Rat in 2008, please be sure to pay attention to the following fish farming taboos:
p>
1. The fish tank should not be placed in a prosperous position. The fish tank should be placed in a prosperous position.
There are two different views on the location of the fish tank in Feng Shui. Some people think that the fish tank should be placed in a prosperous position. The reason is that the motor of the fish tank water filter is constantly running, making the fish tank The water flow in the fish tank is constantly circulating, so if the fish tank is placed in a prosperous position, it will drive the prosperous energy in that direction, and the prosperity will become more prosperous!
But some people think that the fish tank should be placed in the weak position, because this is in line with the saying of "splashing water into the zero hall"; the so-called "zero hall" refers to the weak position of bad luck, according to Feng Shui It is said that if water is introduced into an unlucky position, misfortune can be turned into good fortune, and misfortune can be turned into good fortune. After a lot of practice, the author believes that the latter statement is more credible, because if the fish tank is placed in a prosperous position, it will violate the taboo of "the god of wealth goes into the water". This will undoubtedly secretly push the prosperous God of Wealth into the water, and then you will see Wealth has turned into water.
Therefore, the fish tank should not be placed in the auspicious side; no house can be perfect, and there will always be some external evil spirits. Using a fish tank to resolve external evil spirits is one of the clever ways. "Drove water into Lingtang" means to introduce water into the direction of bad luck, which can turn misfortune into good fortune and misfortune into good fortune. Therefore, it is usually better to place the fish tank in the unlucky side than in the auspicious side.
In the 20 years from 2004 to 2023, it belongs to the Eighth Luck; during this period, the southwest position of Xun is the most unlucky position, so place the fish tank there. As long as you use a compass to measure the correct location in the house, you will know where the fish tank should be placed. If you are not sure, you can ask a professional Feng Shui expert to make a decision.
In addition, if you are not sure at the moment, there is a simple and easy way, which is to place the fish tank or water tanker in the office or house near the entrance, that is, in the bright hall in front of the company, close to the entrance air vent , the response is quick and beneficial, and it can also be used as part of the landscape. If the design is beautiful, it can make people feel relaxed and happy, help employees to boost their spirits and expand their interpersonal relationships. If possible, it is best to plant some trees near fish tanks, waterwheels or pools to beautify them and enhance the vitality.
2. Live water should be used in the fish tank, and the water should flow downward from the top layer.
3. Do not place the fish tank behind the sofa: From the perspective of Feng Shui, it is inappropriate to use water as a backing, because water is impermanent, and it is difficult to find stability if you rely on it as a backing. Therefore, if the fish tank is placed behind the sofa, and company employees or the whole family sit there every day, it will be unreliable and affect the stability of the home. And if the fish tank is placed next to the sofa, it will not hinder the feng shui of the house.
4. The fish tank must not collide with the stove: the fish tank contains a lot of water, and the kitchen stove belongs to fire. Because "water" and "fire" conflict, if the fish tank in the living room forms a line with the kitchen stove, In a straight line, this violates the taboo of conflict between water and fire.
If the fish tank is in conflict with the stove, it will be harmful to the health of the family; the reason is that water and fire are in conflict, and water can overcome fire. The stove that belongs to fire is the victim, and the family members who rely on this stove to cook will also suffer.
5. The fish tank should not be placed under the God of Wealth: As the saying goes, "wealth belongs to the wealth position", so the God of Wealth such as Fortune, Luxu, and Shou should be placed in a prosperous wealth position. The icing on the cake. It would be a big mistake to place the God of Wealth on a fish tank. Because the fish tank should be placed in the most inauspicious side of the house, if the God of Wealth is placed near the fish tank, it will conflict with the principle of "wealth belongs to the wealth position", and if the God of Wealth is placed above the fish tank, it will be a violation of Feng Shui. The taboo of "the righteous god is in the water" will lead to the risk of losing money. Therefore, the fish tank should be placed to avoid being in a straight line with the altar.
6. The number of fish to be raised should be consistent with the five elements of the household head, as detailed above.
7. It is not suitable to raise precious and delicate fish: Raising fish in a fish tank is not easy for precious and delicate fish to survive, and it is also unlucky for fish to die often.
8. The fish tank should not be dark and humid: the fish tank should not be placed in a place that is too dark and humid, because the fish tank itself will release water vapor, which will make the home more humid and cold, so it is best to have sunlight.
9. Fish tanks should not be placed in the bedroom: A fish tank in the bedroom will be very humid, which will affect your health and fortune.
10. Replace dead fish immediately: If the fish in the fish tank dies, it must be replenished in time. Replace every dead fish, otherwise you will lose money. However, if they are all dead, don’t raise them at all, because this It means that you are not suitable for fish farming or the home environment is not suitable for fish farming.
11. Keep the water quality clean: When raising fish in the home, keep the water quality in the fish tank clean. It is best to have oxygenation settings and change the water in time. The air in the room cannot become polluted, and the water in the fish tank must not become polluted. The direction of the circulating water flow and the built-in small waterwheel must be towards the inside of the house, not outside to avoid the flow of wealth.
12. The fish tank should not be too large; a fish tank that is too big will store too much water. From the perspective of Feng Shui, water is important, but too much or too deep is not suitable, and the fish tank is higher than the adult standing The initial eye position is too high, so the fish tank in the living room should not be too large or too high, especially for a small living room.
13. The fish tank is not suitable to be placed near electrical appliances, such as above the TV or next to the stereo; it is not suitable to be placed in places exposed to direct sunlight; it is not suitable to be placed in tilted or unstable places, such as if it is not sturdy shelf.
14. The fish tank is not suitable to be placed beside the bed. If the fish tank is placed next to an electrical appliance, water vapor can easily damage the electrical appliance, and electromagnetic waves and sound can also cause the fish to become irritable. Tanks exposed to direct sunlight will easily grow algae, causing water quality to deteriorate. Rapidly rising water temperatures will cause the death of fish and aquatic plants.
15. If the fish tank is placed on an unstable shelf, it is not only unsafe, but also may cause unstable financial luck. Placing the fish tank next to the bed will violate the Feng Shui theory of "water pouring on the head." "Lushui" means: water rushes to the head from top to bottom. Geographically speaking, a waterfall is a "shower of water"; in a balcony, if water seeps high on the wall or the fish tank is placed higher than the head, it is also a "shower of water". If you are affected by "head shower water" for a long time, it will cause easy illness, mental decline and other effects. This phenomenon will occur if we place a fish tank next to the seat in the living room, and the highest water level in the fish tank is higher than the person sitting next to it.
What needs to be dealt with is that for "water on the head" to become an evil spirit, the head must be very close to the fish tank, that is, only people sitting next to it will commit "water on the head." Generally, fish tanks are placed on cabinets or tables, so the maximum water level is usually higher than 1 meter, which is higher than the person sitting on the sofa. Therefore, it is recommended that the sofa should be 1 meter away from the fish tank to avoid "sprinkling water".
16. You should also pay attention to the height of the fish tank. Calculated from the scale of Feng Shui, the highest position can only be balanced with the heart position, and the lowest position can only be balanced with the knees. The effects of too high and too low on fortune are as follows.
Too high------The water level in the fish tank is higher than the heart level of the owner. The owner is prone to heart disease, unclear thinking, and poor financial luck. The total height of the water surface in the fish tank should not exceed 1.80 meters. Because the fish tank is too high, especially if it is higher than the top of the head, there is always a tendency to drown whether you are sitting or standing. This is what the people call "water on the head" which will invisibly affect the fish tank. When a person experiences a certain amount of pressure and injury, it is said that it will lead to disaster.
Too low------The water level in the fish tank is lower than the owner's knees. The owner is prone to athlete's foot, and lacks the promotion of Feng Shui aura, and his fortune will be unlucky.
If friends can follow the above description to refer to fish farming, then their wishes for wealth and luck in the Year of the Rat in 2008 will surely come true.
