Peach wood has profound cultural meaning. Why can peach wood ward off evil spirits?
Taomu culture has a profound history in our country, and he is also an exorcist in Feng Shui and has a sharp sword in his hand, so Taomu has a high status in Feng Shui. Peach wood, in fact, has another name called "Dragon Subduing Wood". In the TV series Mu Guiying takes charge, the opening scene shows Yang Zongbao's family and the imperial court trying every means to seize the Dragon Subduing Wood from Mujiazhai. And Jianglongmu did play a role that cannot be underestimated in the battles in subsequent TV series. As for the reason why Taomu can ward off evil spirits, I personally believe that one is due to folk beliefs, the other is because it is recorded in books, and the third is because of his unique status. 1. Folk rumors
In ancient times, there was no science, and most people believed in gods and ghosts. Because there are folk legends that ghosts are afraid of peach trees, peach trees are used to ward off evil spirits. Of course, there is no basis for whether folklore is credible or not. Moreover, modern times are an era of science, so there is no way to explore whether peach trees can ward off evil spirits. 2. Records in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"
The Classic of Mountains and Seas is a very ancient book. This book is a book that records the self-surprises of ancient times. It is an absurd and strange book. But no one knows who the author of this book is. This book is divided into four sutras: the Zangshan Sutra, the Overseas Sutra, the Hainei Sutra, and the Great Wilderness Sutra. It contains many folklore and geographical knowledge, and many of our myths and stories come from it, such as Nuwa patching up the sky, Dayu controlling floods, etc., so this is a book with extraordinary documentary value. of a book. 3. Special status
The peach wood sword is made of peach wood. It has always been a good weapon in feng shui to ward off evil spirits. In the TV series, you can see that many Taoist priests use peach wood swords as weapons when subduing demons. Naturally, the older the peach wood swords are, the better they will be, and the stronger their abilities will be. It is best to use peach wood swords that are more than 10 years old. Because peach wood has always been a good thing to ward off evil spirits in people's eyes, peach wood products are often made into peach wood products and worn everywhere. However, there are many things to pay attention to when wearing them. They should not be exposed to water, and they should not be worn when performing the rites of Duke Zhou. They should be kept away from the bed. No blood can be seen at all, so girls cannot wear it when they are menstruating.
