1, taboo on the altar, be careful to affect Feng Shui.
Many people complain that they have moved to the company's house or moved to a new factory, shop or office building. After that, the bad feng shui made them or their families sick for many years, their families were not harmonious, or their business was getting worse and worse, and their families were left out in the cold and suffered losses year after year. Such unfavorable factors may be that when offering sacrifices to the gods, they unconsciously violated the taboo of offering sacrifices to the gods. In this unfavorable situation, the gods want to help Nian. It may be powerless, it may be unintentional to help, and it is more likely to be anger and disdain for the host. Let's look at the decoration of the altar. What are the taboos?
Taboo 1: the altar is placed under the beam.
The altar is under the beam to resist evil. If the altar is placed under the beam, it may lead to the phenomenon that the gods and buddhas are crushed by the beam. Moreover, the gods are placed under the beam, and the ancestors continue to accept interference. The good thing is that they all retreated and left. The bad thing is to stick to your post, accept interference, and then induce with your family, which makes the whole family have headaches, difficulties and physical problems. So if there is this phenomenon, you can use the ceiling to deal with it, and it doesn't matter.
Taboo 2: put it by the door
It is forbidden to make a door punch on the altar. It is very important to rush the door to affect the peace of the gods. If the gate is too close to the altar, especially some new buildings, once you enter the gate, it is only a few feet away, and then you enter the living room through a narrow horizontal corridor. This design is not conducive to placing the altar in front of the gate, otherwise the force of rushing the gate will be very great, which will affect the quiet atmosphere of the gods and cause damage to Feng Shui.
Taboo 3: lean against the toilet behind your back
Toilets are places where dirty gases gather. If the god table is placed on the wall near the toilet, the dirty air, moisture and peculiar smell coming out of the toilet will affect Feng Shui, which will lead the gods to avoid it, and good luck will naturally not come.
Taboo 4: The stove collides with the platform.
The stove should not be opposite to the altar, but will collide with it, because it is not suitable for offering sacrifices to gods in filthy places, because the dirty air in the kitchen and the dirty air are easy to fall above the altar, which will inevitably bring bad luck to the family. Are the stove and the altar each other? Fire? Fire is relative.
It is important to choose the location and auspicious position carefully.
Putting an altar at home is to pray for wealth and ensure the safety of the home. Therefore, the position of the altar must not be hasty, and the position of the altar must be placed with certain statutes, otherwise the altar god will not be able to exert his power. Generally speaking, how should the altar be placed in the best position?
Suitability 1: Height is higher than people's shoulders.
The altar is better than the shoulders of the family, and the heads of the gods and buddhas are above the line of sight. This is the most basic etiquette and the most basic respect.
Suitability 2: The altar sits inside.
The shrine should be located in the living room of the apartment, with its back against the wall and facing the outside, so that it is the first priority to see the outside directly. But be careful not to face the door directly, or you will easily get into trouble. If you live in a house with more than two floors, it should be on the top floor, and you must be able to see directly outside the house. But the roof is not made of iron. The illegally built top floor, covered with iron sheet and without heat insulation, is dedicated to ancestors and gods. They are like victims and temporary residents, which will have long-term adverse effects on future generations.
Suitability 3: Eight directions of Shentai are leeward and sunny.
In order to avoid the smoke in the house when burning incense, the altar is usually placed on the balcony. It should be placed in the lee and the sun. If not properly arranged, it will often be exposed to the sun and rain, which will certainly have an impact on the gods worshipped, especially those balconies facing due north or northwest. Because the northwest wind and the north wind are strong in winter, the incense burner ash of the altar is often blown away. Therefore, the altar should be carefully protected from the wind when placed on the balcony.
Suitability 4: The altar is placed in a dry place.
It is best to put the altar in a dry place, not in a dirty and humid place to worship the gods. So the location of the altar is easy to choose. The weather is sunny and clean.
3. Precautions for worshipping God: God pays attention to typhoons and water.
It is a very sacred thing to put a shrine at home for worship. It is important to be pious when we worship. At the same time, there are still some precautions in worship. Look at Bian Xiao's introduction to you.
Note 1: Burn incense in the morning and evening.
On weekdays, one member of the family will give incense to the gods and ancestors in the morning and evening, and other family members can salute each other. On important festivals, family representatives will put three incense sticks on each person, and other family members will put one incense stick on each person. Everyone had better choose a suitable time every day, sit still, reflect and correspond to the gods.
Note 2: Keep the desktop clean at all times.
There is a misunderstanding among the people that the holy table at home should not be wiped at ordinary times until the 24th of the twelfth lunar month.
