After all, the rooms that people in metropolises live in are buildings, and only the rural areas still vaguely retain the style of ancient buildings, such as quadrangles, which are more representative.
Although there have been some changes in rural quadrangles, they still conform to the architecture of quadrangles.
Then everyone will know the general layout of the quadrangle.
Usually they sit facing south, and then there is a hall in the middle. My understanding is equivalent to our living room now, which is used to entertain guests.
Connecting the hall is the wing room and the matching room, which is a general quadrangle.
But one more thing is to meet the door wall.
Generally, it is the welcome wall of a long and narrow courtyard.
The function of the porch wall is to hide the wind and absorb the air, so that guests can't see the things in their rooms at a glance, which is also common in buildings. Now there will be similar entrance walls built indoors, which is also necessary from the aesthetic point of view.
Then we have to mention the north-south article here.
First, the north and south are long and narrow
You know, the north-south length here usually refers to the courtyard, not the living room.
In rural areas, north and south are long and narrow, which means long and narrow before and after.
Houses in China pay attention to such a south-facing trend, but because of the geographical environment, there is no guarantee that they will face south.
So there are certain restrictions on the layout. We must never be flexible in order to sit facing south. This is a cliche.
So there is a long and narrow statement.
And because of the difference between the north and the south, the requirements for fences are different. In short, it is for the convenience of life. Some families may not build fences, but just use a fence instead.
So the north and south here does not necessarily refer to the north-south direction, but also refers to the front and back direction.
No matter what direction, we should pay attention to the symmetrical distribution, which is a central axis.
Only in this way can people feel more unified as a whole, and such a house will have rich auspicious meanings.
Of course, remember to set up a welcome wall in the middle, which can also give people a comfortable feeling visually.
Second, the north and south are long and narrow and folk customs
The house is for people to live in, so all good wishes are inseparable from folk customs.
One of them stems from the worship of dragons.
Our country is called the country of dragons, and we are called the descendants of dragons, which shows how sacred dragons are in people's hearts.
Therefore, because of the worship of dragons, it is no exaggeration that the north and south are long and narrow.
What the hell does that mean? The body of a dragon is like a snake. There is a saying in the zodiac that dragons have snakes. Everyone knows that snakes are long. If it corresponds to the feeling that the house is long and narrow in the north and south, it also conforms to the principle that the dragon head is in the sea and the dragon tail is in the three, that is, yin and yang are like long queues, indicating auspicious living.
Because the dragon is the symbol of the emperor, and the emperor is the most rich and auspicious person, it means wealth in a building with a long and narrow body like a dragon, and this long and narrow also corresponds to the long and narrow north and south in the family house.
Therefore, the folk custom is "long and narrow north and south, rich and auspicious".
There is a long and narrow north-south line, and there is also a saying in folk customs that Tibet is willing to accept the wind.
Generally speaking, the construction of houses pays attention to the harmony of yin and yang in order to achieve the purpose of hiding the wind and accepting the gas.
We all know that if we are in an open environment, the wind will not be hidden, so we will face the cold wind directly.
If you live in such a long and narrow environment, you can collect the wind directly and then slowly disappear through all corners of the house.
This corresponds to another kind of wind, called through flow. Usually, because there is no place around to keep out the wind, all the winds gather in the hall. Why do old people say that sleeping without a mouthpiece will do great harm to the human body? This is a fact.
So is Zener. In spring, the sun shines into the yard, and the long and narrow yard will gather warm air, giving people a particularly warm and comfortable feeling.
Living in such an environment is not only conducive to the circulation of the human body, but also conducive to the growth of flowers and plants in the yard, which will appear rich and auspicious.
Summary:
Whether it's because of the hotel or the geographical environment, China's wisdom is actually integrated into all aspects of life. Without careful scrutiny, we don't know what precious cultural heritage our ancestors left us, especially in the ancient buildings in China, where not only geomantic numerology is considered, but also human health is considered.
