What is "inverted stick" in Feng Shui?

The so-called inverted stick refers to the method of feng shui household benchmarking to determine the depth and depth of the acupoints before and after placing the coffin.

Yu Yuanzi said in "Tianbao Jing·The First Method of Burial": "If the Yin and Yang two roads can be understood, the inverted rod should be completed by one rod, that is, the depth and shallowness of the benchmark can be recognized. For blessing, survivorship leads to abandonment." The stick is the benchmark, and the method of inverting the stick is to stand a pole at the third point of the water behind the acupuncture point, and stand a pole at the unprecedented triple point of the water. The standard is then based on the low, rapid, fast, and smooth of the dragon veins, and the depth, left and right, front and back of the acupoints. The "Sutra of Burial Sutra Wing·Inverted Rod" says: "Because of the constellation of the first star, Da Jie has its natural tendency, adapts to its feelings, and does not violate its changes. It is known to be angry, because the coffin multiplies it. It’s natural to look around."

There are twelve feng shui family sticks, namely: straight stick, reverse stick, shrink stick, embellish stick, wear stick, off stick, no stick, opposite stick, open stick, cut stick, stubborn stick, and guilty stick. The first ten are Kyrgyzstan, and the latter two are evil. Both Yang Junsong's "The Method of Twelve Rods" and Miao Xiyong's "Twelve Inverted Rods" have diagrams, which are detailed.
