The emphasis and taboo of placing dragon-shaped ornaments
The dragon has always occupied a very lofty position in China people's minds. For example, the so-called "four spirits" dragon, phoenix and tortoise forest, it occupies the chief position. Historically, emperors in China used the Golden Dragon as their supreme symbol.
besides representing authority, the dragon is also a symbol of wealth and good fortune. Therefore, China people like to put some dragon-shaped decorations at home, so as to increase the auspicious atmosphere.
However, although dragons play an active role in geomantic omen, they should not be placed randomly to avoid the opposite effect.
The following are four noteworthy points:
1. Dragons should cooperate with water
Dragons will be born when they meet water, that is, they will be particularly fierce. If they are placed in a dry place, there will be the danger of "Longyou being caught in a shrimp play in shallow water". Therefore, if dragon-shaped decorations are placed at home, they should be placed where there is water. If you can put the dragon on the top of the fish tank, or on the left and right sides of the fish tank, it is very suitable and can be fruitful.
2. Long Yi faces the sea or the river
Some houses face the sea or the river. Although the geomantic omen is very good, it is a pity that it is too far away to absorb the wealth from them, and every time there is hope, the ocean will sigh.
The remedy can be a pair of gray or black stone dragons placed on the railing of a window or terrace, with their necks facing the sea or river, which can be a prosperous effect in geomantic omen, but it must be noted that it is not suitable if there is sewage or a sewer in front, because it will pollute the Shuanglong and lose its due spirituality.
3. The dragon should be placed in the north
If there is no water inside and outside the house, you need to place the dragon-shaped decorations in the north. The reason for washing teeth is mainly because the north is the location where "water vapor" is flourishing, so it is very suitable for dragons who like water.
4. Dragons should not face the bedroom
Although dragons are auspicious animals, they should not face the bedroom because they are very powerful, especially those with claws and claws.
Please note that dragons with red eyes are never suitable for facing children's bedrooms or beds, because this will not only make children psychologically frightened, but also restrain them in Feng Shui.
To sum up, it is advisable for dragons to be in harmony with water, so if they are not placed in a place with water inside the house, they should face the river or the sea outside the house. In terms of orientation, dragons should be placed in the north, because the "water" is in full swing in the north. But please remember, a red-eyed dragon should not face a child's door or bed.
Don't let the lion suffer from it inward
In China's traditional customs, there are often lion dances to add fun to festivals and celebrations, which shows that China people attach great importance to lions. This is mainly because the lion can not only ward off evil spirits, but also bring good luck.
The lion is recognized as the king of beasts. It is brave and unstoppable, and it is awesome everywhere. Therefore, since the Tang Dynasty, people in China used to put stone lions on both sides of the gate to cure evil spirits in the town house, so that the evil spirits outside the gate were easy to escape and did not dare to enter the house.
In this way, putting lions at home is quite beneficial, but it's a pity that most people abuse them too much now, so sometimes it backfires.
speaking, lions used for decoration can be classified into stone lions, bronze lions, pottery lions, jade lions and wooden lions according to their materials. If divided by color, there are red lions, white lions, black lions, green lions and golden lions. If divided by form, there are southern lions, northern lions, straight lions and side lions. So ... Most people feel dazzled and don't know how to choose.
Because each kind of lion has different uses, it is difficult to make it clear here, but you can put forward some points here for your reference.
1. Lions should be paired
Lions must be paired, and a female and a male should be paired. Please pay attention to distinguish between male and female, and do not turn left and right. If you can't tell the difference, just remember that a pair of lions are taking care of each other when they are placed, so you can't make a mistake.
if one of them is broken, you should immediately replace it with a brand-new pair of lions, and don't leave the remaining one in its original place.
2. The lion's head must face the outside
The lion's head should face the outside, not the inside. The reason is that the lion's head is outward to prevent evil spirits and ghosts from entering the house. Therefore, all along, the stone lions outside the residence or government offices have their heads outward.
If the lion's head is facing the room, it will not cure evil, and it is likely that it will suffer. Therefore, the lion's head must not face the room, especially not to his own room.
If the lion is placed in the house, it is best to face the gate and look out of the house. If it is placed in the window, the lion's head must also look out of the window.
Don't underestimate the turtle and emphasize the lion's discomfort for the elderly
As the so-called "one thing cures one thing", in terms of feng shui, the majestic lion is usually used to cure evil spirits in the town house, but sometimes turtles are used to cure evil spirits because of different environments.
Turtles, like dragons, are one of the auspicious "Four Spirits" and a symbol of longevity. Therefore, although the world has always ridiculed turtles, there are still many people who like to put copper turtles or stone turtles at home.
According to the legend, turtles will fully absorb the aura of the mountains and rivers, so they live a long life. Therefore, it is very appropriate to put turtle-shaped decorations in the bedroom of the elderly, because it symbolizes health and longevity, but it should be noted that the glans must face out of the window.
It is often seen that some people put lions with their mouths open in the old people's rooms, but this is not appropriate. Because the old people may not be able to stand the lion's suffocation, so they are self-defeating. It is safer and better to use turtles.
Some people may suspect that the tortoise moves slowly and has no power. It seems that it is difficult to protect itself, so if it is used to subdue evil spirits, will it have any effect?
In fact, although the tortoise moves slowly, it seems to have no self-defense ability, but it knows how to bear the burden of humiliation. When in danger, it will shrink its head, tail and limbs into a thick turtle shell. No matter how fierce the enemy is, he will be helpless, so he can finally tide over the difficulties.
Therefore, when you encounter some very special and dangerous Xing Sha, if you use a lion to fight hard, you might as well use a turtle to solve it, and it is better to be soft and rigid. Only in this way can it conform to the principle of Feng Shui that "the fierce should be changed rather than fought", so some Feng Shui teachers will teach people to use turtles to resolve the fierce use.
There are many kinds of decorations for turtles, such as wooden turtles, stone turtles, tile turtles and bronze turtles, which have their own uses. We should decide which one to use according to the location.
It is ominous to avoid putting five horses
In the various decorations of the geomantic omen in Yangzhai, lions, dragons and turtles are usually used to dispel evil spirits, but occasionally some people use horses and dogs. What are the functions of horses? And what should I avoid?
Horses are rarely used to subdue evil spirits, mainly because they are neither so powerful as lions and dragons, nor know how to avoid danger like turtles, so they lack the efficacy of subduing evil spirits.
Fortunately, the horse has a prosperous role, so some people put the statue of the horse in a prosperous position, hoping to get the effect of getting there first and succeeding.
horses should be placed in the south and northwest. The reason for placing horses in the south is that horses belong to the noon in the twelve branches, while the "noon palace" is in the south, so it is very suitable to place horses there.
after talking about the range of horses, let's talk about the number.
generally speaking, two, three, six, eight and nine horses are more suitable, among which six horses are the most auspicious. Because "six" and "Lu" are homophonic, six horses run together, and there is a good intention of "Lu and Ma crossing".
the most taboo is to put five horses, because there will be a taboo of "five horses dismembering".
however, it should be noted that although horses play a vital role in feng shui decoration, it is a pity that people who belong to the "rat" in the zodiac are somewhat offended. Therefore, people who belong to rats should not put statues of horses or hang pictures of horses in the house.
For those people who belong to the tiger, dog and pig zodiac, putting horses will be especially beneficial to them.
avoid dragons and dogs colliding with each other.
Dogs are used to guard the portal. Common sense says that the decoration of dogs in geomantic omen also plays this role.
In some elegant houses, statues of dogs are often placed near the door in order to eliminate the disaster of robbery.
the statue of the dog should be placed by the door. And your head must face the door. According to geomantic omen, dogs should not be placed in the southeast.
the number of dogs should not be too many, but generally one or two is enough.
According to the theory that the Chinese zodiac is a dragon, and the dragon and the dog collide, it is best not to have dog toys at home.
The colors of toys placed in different directions have different requirements. Black dogs should be placed in the north, white dogs in the west and yellow dogs in the south.
