Feng Shui is the skill of the wise

The essence of feng shui is the choice and judgment of whether it is livable or not. This requires the application of comprehensive science and technology such as geography, astrology, climate, and architecture. Therefore, it is a full manifestation of the culture, technological level and wisdom of an era; secondly, it is about feng shui.

How to adjust and reform bad places to make them beneficial to life and family is a kind of great wisdom. Lack of wisdom and spirituality, lack of wise choice and creativity, is definitely difficult to do a good job as a feng shui master. Since ancient times, every feng shui master who has left a great reputation in history is a person of great wisdom and wisdom, a person of Confucianism and Taoism, and a person who knows astronomy and geography. Ordinary ordinary people are nothing more than knowing some skills and folk taboos, and doing some superficial articles that can be counted to confuse the world, so they are only called sorcerers, and they don't have much high status. The real Feng Shui masters are the wise men, such as Liu Bingzhong, the designer of Yuan Dadu (the predecessor of Beijing City) and others.

The wisdom of feng shui is first reflected in the identification of the mountains and rivers, the true dragon and the acupoints. Since ancient times, it is the first time to look for the dragon to catch the pulse of the dragon. It is not an easy task to truly capture the traces of the dragon veins in the rugged mountains and on the vast ground, and to separate the branch veins and the direction of life and death. "Xuexin Fu" said: "The qi should be viewed in its fusion, and the principle must be in the subtle. From the wise man's requirements, it is not the stupid man's presumption. The body is bestowed on humans, there are a hundred skeletons and nine orifices. Those who are shaped in the earth , There are thousands of waters and mountains. From the roots, hidden or apparent. The fetal breath is gestated, and the gods change infinitely. The prosperous life and the rest of the prisoners, the machine runs constantly. "Only the wise can appreciate the subtleties.

Where there is good luck, it is difficult for a dull person to distinguish the place and mechanism of the dragon vein change and the fusion of vitality. To reach the height of intellectual knowledge, in addition to basic knowledge of astronomy, calendar, geography, meteorology, hydrology, etc., you must also have comprehension, experience it with your heart, and go to the field more to explore thousands of mountains and rivers, and travel around the world. . In a nutshell, it is what the ancients called "looking up to astronomy and looking down to geography."

Secondly, the wisdom of Feng Shui is embodied in the aspects of architecture, planning, renovation, construction, etc., and embodied in the cleverness of site selection and design. It is not as simple as just building a house and planning a piece of land, but embodies and nurtures the soul of one place, one city, one pool and one building. The most typical one is Beijing in history.

Thirdly, the wisdom of Feng Shui is embodied in how to cleverly avoid the harm or unfavorable side of nature and environment to human settlements, and create a favorable and harmonious side, that is, the Feng Shui technique emphasizes that "the earth is more than enough to be used for development, and the mountain is not enough for training Then training". The most typical is to prevent "rushing" between roads and gateways. In the construction of ancient cities, it was often emphasized that “the gates are not opposite, and the roads are not straight.” The south gate and the north gate seem to be in a straight line, but they are actually slightly misaligned by a few degrees. Such as four famous Fengshui towns in ancient China

In Langzhong, Sichuan, its south gate just faces the ancient traffic arterial road between Jinping Mountain and Huanghua Mountain in the south of the Yangtze River. It is an air outlet. For this reason, the builders deliberately shifted the position of the south gate to the west to avoid rushing shots.

"The Complete Book of Yin and Yang Two Houses" says: "The blood of the human body is carried by the air, and the air of the mountains and rivers is carried by the water." In Feng Shui, great emphasis is placed on the arrangement of water and water channels, emphasizing that there must be water running through or surrounding villages and towns. If there is not enough water in a place, it will try to manually repair the canal to divert water; if the water channel is in an unfavorable direction, it will also repair the rectification direction. For example, Chengkan Village, She County, Anhui. The origin of Chengkan Village originated from Luo Family in the Southern Song Dynasty. At that time, a stream ran along the foot of Geshan Mountain and rushed to the village. Under the guidance of Feng Shui, a stone dam was built in the village to divert the stream. This not only expanded the land, but also changed the original flood. After the unfavorable pattern of shooting, the village developed prosperously. This method of changing the Feng Shui pattern of a place by transforming the environment is often used in practice. For example, according to the azimuth requirements of the eight trigrams, the terrain of different azimuths has its own rules. If the terrain should not be low and low, it needs to be raised, and if it should not be high, it needs to be cut. Another example is the village where the water enters the water. For the Tianmen, the water outlet is called the land household. If a local land household is in a bad terrain, it needs to be renovated, building a water mouth tower, repairing a water mouth bridge, and so on.
