First, who is suitable for raising turtles?
Turtles belong to fire, and raising turtles is actually equivalent to raising fire, which is to make up the fire. People who want fire can keep turtles. One is to keep them in a specific environment, such as a fish tank or basin. The other is to let the tortoise walk around the house. Turtles walking around are called "killing evil turtles" in geomantic omen. How can turtles kill evil?
It turns out that the turtle has turtle lines on its back. There are three squares in the center of the turtle pattern, representing three talents in heaven and earth, 24 squares beside it, representing twenty-four mountains, and ten squares representing ten heavenly stems. There are twelve squares at the bottom of the turtle pattern, representing the twelve earthly branches. Strangely, the layout of the tortoise shell contains all the codes representing the mysteries of the universe, so the tortoise is called one of the four spirits. Turtle was called Xuanwu in ancient times, and it was called "Four Spirit Culture" together with Qinglong, White Tiger and Suzaku.
China people especially like turtles, because they have a very long life span and can witness the rise and fall of the world for hundreds of years. Since ancient times, they have been regarded as symbols of longevity and good luck. When a person's family is extremely unlucky or short of fire, the numerologist will advise him to keep a turtle at home and let it walk around. On the one hand, he can block bad luck with shells and drive away bad luck, on the other hand, he can strengthen fire luck and drive away evil spirits. Therefore, raising turtles can also prevent people from falling.
In ancient times, when some people were buried after death, they would put a pair of turtles under the coffin before releasing it, symbolizing that after the Yin people went to hell, they could get Gui Ling as a means of transportation and ride on the turtles to roam the hell.
Second, the placement of turtles.
Therefore, turtles are sacred. Turtles kept in fish tanks, such as Brazilian tortoises, are kept in specific locations, preferably in the direction of fire, or in places that need to be positive, such as near the gate. The location of fire can be determined according to family members, for example, men want the fire to be placed in the northwest, women want the fire to be placed in the southwest, and so on.

1, keeping turtles can ward off evil spirits.
