Among the three essentials of a villa, there are three factors that determine good or bad luck, one is to look at the gate, the other is the location where the owner lives in the yard, and the third is the sitting direction of the kitchen. The ancestor Huang Gong talked about five elements, one is that the courtyard wall is completely intact, the other is that the house is small, the third is that there are many people and few houses, the fourth is that six animals are complete, and the fifth is that the main kitchen is reasonably arranged.
The factors that cause the good or ill luck of rural houses are mainly determined by the following three aspects.
1. The external environment, including dragons, caves, sand, water, geology, road traffic and other natural environments, as well as various human environments, are similar to Yin House, but there are also differences. In ancient times, it was called "external six things".
2. The internal layout of rural housing, including vertical orientation, ventilation and lighting, layout of various functional areas in the house, building scale, building shape, floor and color, etc. In ancient times, it was called "internal six things".
3. Whether the geomantic pattern of rural geomantic houses adapts to the owner's life.
The "internal and external affairs" of ancient dwellings refer to six factors: roads, wells, toilets, animal pens, temples and bridges, namely the external environment around the house. The shape and orientation of "Six Wais" are closely related to the good or bad luck of Yang Zhai's geomantic omen. The content of "external six objects" in ancient dwellings is obviously related to China's long-term agricultural society and polytheism.
With the development of the times, great changes have taken place in Yangzhai. Wells have given way to running water, toilets have become toilets with flush toilets and moved from outside to inside, and most animal pens and temples are far away from houses. The content of "six external events" in modern housing has changed greatly. "Six exterior" refers to the general name of the external environment of the house, including mountains, rivers, buildings, roads or streets, bridges and trees, as well as its natural geographical environment and human environment.
