When building a house, why not plant trees first and then willow?

The universal belief of "not planting mulberry before, not planting willow after" is a psychology of seeking good luck for future generations and a superstitious sermon, which we should abandon today. There is some truth in the idea that "there are no ghosts in the yard to clap your hands" in order to avoid trouble. Chinese culture is extensive and profound, and our ancestors summed up many proverbs full of philosophy of life with their own wisdom, such as: "Don't plant trees before, don't plant flowers later", "Don't plant bamboo before, don't open the back door later", "Don't plant mulberry before, don't plant willows later", "If the front is high, it will be lonely", "If the wall is added, the family will be ruined" and "The arrow house on the east-west road will suffer nine casualties".

As the saying goes, if you are not lonely, you are widowed.

"The front is high and the back is concave" means that the terrain in front of the house is high and the back is low. Since ancient times, there has been a saying in China that houses face south and east and west are neighbors. Why is it "not lonely but widowed"? First, architectural geomantic omen says that there is a shelter in front of the general house, which will affect the fortune of the homeowner. Second, it affects health. If the terrain in front of the house is high, then the house in the front row will block the sun and the home will be dark and humid for a long time. Living in this environment for a long time is not conducive to people's physical and mental health. Third, building safety says that the back of the house is low-lying and has not seen the light for a long time. If it encounters continuous rainy weather, it will inevitably accumulate water for a long time, which will seriously affect the life of the house and even lead to the collapse of the house, endangering people's lives.

As the saying goes, the wall is added to the wall, and the family is ruined.

The ancients said that "adding a wall to the wall" means adding a house on the basis of the original house. Why is it that "the family is ruined"? The ancients, like modern people, were keen on comparing themselves, especially comparing their own houses. As a result, I saw my neighbor build a big house, and I was afraid of blocking my own light, so I built a higher house, which was equivalent to building a building upstairs and adding walls to the walls, but the foundation of the building was not reinforced simultaneously. In the long run, the foundation will inevitably be overwhelmed, which will eventually lead to the tragedy of house collapse.

Rumor 3: East and West Arrow House, ten people and nine casualties.

"East-West Arrow House" refers to the house whose main entrance faces the street. Why are there "ten people and nine casualties"? First, it affects safety. The gate faces the street, and there are many vehicles going out. If you encounter a carriage and get scared, you may even rush into the yard, seriously endangering the safety of your family. The second is to affect rest. Houses facing the street at the gate are generally located in the center of the T-junction. It's good if it's a commercial rental, but it's not good for your own use. The busy traffic around is not conducive to rest. The third is to affect the fortune. From the perspective of geomantic omen, the whole street is like a bow and arrow. The arrow is facing its own door, which is a fierce position and is not conducive to the prosperity of the family.

Proverbs 4: The white tiger hides the green dragon, and some people are poor.

"White tiger covers the dragon" means that the house next door is taller than its own. Why is there a phenomenon that "some people are worse than one generation"? First, feng shui fortune, according to "left Qinglong, right white tiger", the general white tiger represents fierceness and is a neighbor in the west, while Qinglong is a lucky star and a neighbor in the east. If the house is high in the west and low in the east, it is equal to the rise of evil stars. There is a saying that "it is better to let the Qinglong take off than the white tiger look up". Second, it will affect the lighting. If the house in the west is too high, it will affect the lighting in the afternoon. Generally, the afternoon is also the period with the strongest light and the longest duration. If there is insufficient light during this period.
