Editor's note: Tomorrow is Dragon Boat Festival! Besides eating zongzi, rowing dragon boats, laying eggs and other interesting folk activities, the Dragon Boat Festival is also an important day to make money. Because it is the hottest time of the year, it also represents the highest yang. Therefore, the "noon water" that flowed out at noon that day was the most powerful water in Feng Shui. Hurry up and learn to make money in the second half of the year.
"Afternoon water" is a wonderful method of luck described by Xie Yuanjin, chairman of China Orthodox Folk Geomantic Education Association, and is also a geomantic master of Yijing. The method is simple. At noon on Dragon Boat Festival 12, just prepare a clean container to collect the water from the faucet.
The most common use of this kind of water is to make "wealth water". Pour the afternoon water into the pot first, and then prepare copper coins or 12 dragon silver. After the fire boils, you can turn off the fire and cool it, and then pour it into a bowl to become wealth water. After that, you can carry it around in a small bottle as a personal lucky mascot, or put it in a round container at home, which can also achieve the effect of making money.
But pay attention to adding water at any time to avoid the container drying up, so as not to lose the function of making money. Just add ordinary tap water or purified water. Copper coins boiled with money and water can be used as "money mothers" and put in desks or purses, which is helpful for making money and making profits! Or put the 12 coins around the house in a round container filled with money and water, symbolizing that one year 12 months, one day 12 hours, the Chinese zodiac at home can "get rich" at any time.

Just over half of the Dragon Boat Festival this year is also an important day for transshipment in the second half of the year. May wish to take advantage of this Dragon Boat Festival, pray for wealth and longevity, and reverse the fortune in the second half of the year! The process, preparation, customs and precautions of the Dragon Boat Festival are all here, for the mothers who worship for the first time! After the worship, the whole family will eat zongzi together to wish good luck and welcome the second half of the year.
Two strokes of Dragon Boat Festival to seek wealth and longevity easily
First, Jin Jian jiaozi: Seeking wealth and seeking children
According to Feng Shui expert Chen Guanyu, offering golden soda dumplings can bring prosperity. If you want golden soda dumplings with yellow leaves, yellow outside and yellow inside symbolize soil in the five elements, and gold will bring wealth. People who have had a bad career fortune since the beginning of this year can eat an alkaline glutinous rice dumpling with yellow inside and yellow outside at the Dragon Boat Festival this year to get yellow positive energy!
Second, five-color beans: seeking longevity
Experts say that people used to eat green beans during the Dragon Boat Festival. In ancient times, people thought that eating beans could prolong life and please children. Later, some people prepared "five-colored beans" to be offered during the Dragon Boat Festival, symbolizing Jin Mu's fire, water and soil. After the worship, they add rice to cook five-grain rice and eat five-color rice. The five-color rice represents the five elements (fire, water and earth in Jin Mu) and rice balances the original unhealthy or insufficient constitution of the human body.

The teacher also suggested that five-color beans can be eaten continuously for 12 days, with a little five-color bean rice for each meal. Eating 65,438+02 days symbolizes the completion of 65,438+02 heavenly stems and earthly branches, which can not only change the past, but also pray for a smoother and healthier second half of the year.
How to worship the Dragon Boat Festival?
The order of worship is the same for both the gods and the ancestors: first, prepare offerings, light candles, offer drinks, then burn incense (three incense) to pray for the ancestors' blessing until one third of the incense is burned (75% of the incense is burned out), hold gold paper in both hands to worship the ancestors, sprinkle drinks on the paper ash after worshipping the gold paper, and finally remove the offerings.
