Is it good to plant pomegranate trees at home for feng shui? Affect feng shui, leading to bad fortune.
It is said that pomegranate trees can't be planted at home. I've heard of it. What is the statement? What will pomegranate trees bring? As the saying goes, "Don't plant mulberry before, don't plant willow after" and "die under the pomegranate skirt". From the perspective of geomantic omen, these trees are negative and easy to attract unclean things. It is easy to cause trouble, which makes it easy for men to fall into "love debts", leading to family disharmony. In fact, the tradition handed down has some truth. For example, planting pomegranate trees at home is easy to grow caterpillars, which fall off as soon as they go out. It's scary! In fact, this legend has been recorded in historical records for hundreds of years and is unconvincing. Through the planting practice of thousands of families, it is proved that the orange-red pomegranate can not bring joy to the courtyard, but it symbolizes a happy family with many children and many blessings. Feng shui is also a problem, and it is recommended not to plant it outside.
The geomantic conception of planting trees in the courtyard 1. About the selection of tree species:
Planting trees in the yard is dispensable. According to geomantic omen, plants can be divided into two categories: bad luck and bad luck. There are two criteria for dividing the perpetrators: one is based on whether there is poisonous gas or venom, which has certain scientific basis. For example, some scholars believe that cordate telosma will emit a large number of particles with strong sense of smell at night, which has adverse effects on patients with heart disease and hypertension. The flowers of oleander are poisonous, and the fragrance of flowers makes people sleepy and reduces human function. Tulip flowers have soil alkali, which is easy to fall off when exposed to hair too much. This is a fierce tree and should not be planted in the yard. The other is the shape of the tree, such as "the tree is strange, and its name is ruined by anger", "the tree is hunched over, and its wealth is exhausted", "the tree is like an ox, and it is ill" and so on. All ugly, dignified and abnormally developed trees are fierce. I'm afraid this is a psychological effect or a traditional humanistic aesthetic concept at work. As for auspicious tree, it is determined according to plant characteristics, meanings and even homophones, and people tend to hold this view in real life. For example, Feng Shui scholars believe that 65,438+03 plants such as palm, citrus, bamboo, Toona sinensis, Sophora japonica, Ganoderma lucidum, plum, Ficus microcarpa, jujube, pomegranate, grape and begonia are auspicious plants, while peach, willow, wormwood, ginkgo and cypress are auspicious plants.
Second, about planting orientation:
Ancient geomantic classics have some conclusions about this: "Peach poplars are planted in the east, plum dates are planted in the south, elms are planted in the west and plums are planted in the north", "It is unlucky to hang willows in front of the door", "Sophora japonica is in the middle of the door, and there are ghosts behind the house", "Double dates are planted in front of the door" and "bamboo and wood are green in front of the house to make money". From the above conclusions, combined with modern scientific knowledge, it is considered that some conclusions contain natural scientific knowledge, while others are a psychological need to avoid misfortune. For example, peach trees are planted in the east because the sunrise is the first in the east, willow trees germinate earlier, and peach blossoms are one of the earliest flowering plants in spring, so it is more reasonable to plant them in the east. Elms are wet plants, and it is more appropriate to plant them in the west when the sun is not afraid. As for the saying that locust trees attract wealth and elm trees exorcise ghosts, there are probably many superstitious elements. Willow should not be planted in front of the main gate, which may refer to willow "easy virtue", which is psychologically unacceptable.
Third, about the number of trees planted:
Feng Shui advocates reasonable close planting. It thinks: when the surroundings are large and narrow, don't plant many kinds of trees, otherwise it will help to shade them; Only the sparse left and right behind are densely planted to block their emptiness. We agree with this view, but some of the following statements are too superstitious and can be discarded: "A single tree is the door, but a widowed mother and an orphaned grandson", "The door is in the forest, and the sudden illness is more fierce", "Two trees in front of the door hurt more people", "The left tree is not right, and the luck is not so fierce", "The left tree is three to five, and the husband and wife are fighting each other", and "Two trees are sandwiched between houses, and the loss is certain.
Four, about the size of the trees:
It is more suitable to plant big trees in the yard, and different feng shui schools have different requirements. In geomantic omen, the formal school thinks it is appropriate to plant rows of big trees around the house to stop the suffocation. In order to meet the needs of the situation, when building a house on the plain or in a wide place around it, trees and flowers can be used to create a pattern of "left green dragon, left white tiger, former suzaku and back Xuanwu", that is, planting big trees at the back of the house, medium trees on the left and right sides, and low shrubs or grass in front. This way is understandable from the aesthetic point of view, which meets the psychological needs of people looking for a "land of geomantic omen" and can be applied to design. In geomantic theory, it is believed that trees should be planted in high places and low plants should be planted in low places. For example, the theory of "Year of Eight Houses" holds that trees should be planted only when there are natural medicines in the house, and there is longevity and vitality. Dwarf trees or grass can be planted in other directions. Kong Xuan law stipulates that only God can plant trees, but the direction of zero God is not suitable. This method may have no scientific basis or aesthetic feeling, and it is not suitable for reference unless the owner has special requirements.
Five, about the choice of trees:
Generally speaking, Feng Shui theory advocates a square garden, which is symmetrical and balanced. Therefore, the overall requirements for plant cultivation can be summarized as: healthy and disease-free, dignified and peculiar, as can be seen from the following Feng Shui judgment. "Strange trees are swollen, and evil spirits are * * * imps", "Bamboo and wood are hanging upside down by the water, and children fall into the water", "Dead trees are used as doors, and people are burned to death", "Twigs and vines are entangled, and hanging beams capsize", "Trees are damaged, feet are swollen", "Fruit branches are left behind, and phlegm and fire cause miscellaneous diseases", "Roots under trees are swollen, and people are deaf and blind. It is certain that dead trees, dead trees and diseased trees are not suitable for planting. As for the ugly trees, they should be split in two. Some trees are beautiful because of bending, and they are good because of bending, so we can't exclude them all. Of course those ugly and twisted ones won't grow.
Six, about the choice of plant color:
Classical Feng Shui books rarely discuss the color of plants directly, but only a few words, such as "the right tree is red, a seductive family" and "the right tree is white, and the children and grandchildren are scattered". I am afraid that the right tree is related to "Peach Blossom" and should not be located on the right side of the pond, otherwise it will be obscene. "White flowers on the right tree" is related to the custom of mourning the dead with white flowers, so it is judged that children and grandchildren will be separated. We think this judgment is nonsense, otherwise the flawless Magnolia grandiflora planted in front of the house would be all wet? Although ancient geomantic theory didn't talk much about what color plants were planted, it believed that everything in the world was composed of five material elements: gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and different colors represented different elements.
Gold-white, apricot and gold
Wood cyan, green
Water-black and blue
Fire-red and purple
Soil-yellow, brown
As for the orientation and color, geomantic omen has made a series of complicated theories based on the principle that the five elements coexist and resist each other, so I won't say much because of the limited space. According to people's psychological habits of color, some new modern Feng Shui scholars put forward some new views. They think red represents prosperity and enthusiasm; Green represents peace; Yellow represents wealth; Black represents solemnity; White represents cleanliness and solemnity. The above division has certain significance, because it conforms to the psychological set of modern people and can be used as a reference for landscape design.
For various reasons, modern people pay more and more attention to the traditional geomantic theory, and the requirements of landscape engineering for geomantic omen are becoming more and more obvious. Therefore, it is beneficial to study ancient and modern geomantic theory as landscape geomantic omen. Some of the above discussions are mainly based on the arguments of some ancient and modern geomantic scholars, and some are some inferences about geomantic knowledge.
