As the old saying goes in the countryside, "The house is not planted with five shady trees". What does the shady tree mean? What five trees can't be planted in the yard?
Some friends like to plant some fruit trees, which can not only decorate the yard, but also eat fruits. Some friends like to plant some fast-growing trees, which can be sold in a few years and earn some income, such as poplars.
However, there are also stresses in the process of planting trees. According to the folk saying, not all trees can be planted in their own yard.
In this article, what I want to tell you is the old saying, "No shady trees are planted at home", which means that you can't plant five kinds of shady trees in your own house. Some friends will ask, what is a shady tree? Which five trees belong to shady trees? What's the point? The author will talk about these questions in detail below, and everyone will have an answer after reading them.
There are two explanations for the saying of shade wood. First, it refers to miscellaneous trees that have been buried for a long time, and trees that have not been exposed to sunlight all the year round.
Secondly, according to folk parlance, it refers to trees that like to grow in damp and cool places, such as those used to make coffins, trees around cemeteries, or trees with bad meanings.
As the old saying goes, "Five-shade trees are not planted at home" is more inclined to the latter's explanation. It is believed that these five kinds of trees should not be planted at home. Let's talk about which five kinds of trees specifically refer to.
the first kind: pine trees
people say that pine trees are negative trees, which will emit "yin qi". If pine trees are planted at home, the atmosphere in the family will be surrounded by pine trees, and "yang qi" is what everyone likes, which means that the family is prosperous. If pine trees are planted, the yang qi will be destroyed, which indicates that their feng shui will be destroyed.
In addition, pine trees are as long as a hundred trees, which means they will last forever. Some people will say, wouldn't it be nice to just plant them at home? Actually, it is not. Pine trees are usually planted in front of graves, around cemeteries, or in some temples, and are rarely planted at home.
the second kind: cypress
cypress belongs to evergreen tree species, and it has strong vitality and can grow well in some harsh environments.
It stands to reason that cypress trees are suitable for planting at home, and can be evergreen even in winter.
However, according to the folk saying, it is not suitable for planting in the house at home, because cypress has the name of "grave tree", which is similar to pine trees, and is generally common in front of graves and around cemeteries. If it is planted at home, it will have a bad meaning and will be laughed at.
In addition, cypress plants are relatively large. If you plant them at home, they will occupy a lot of space until they are mature. It is not obvious to plant one tree. If you plant more than one tree at home, it will look gloomy.
At the same time, cypress is one of the main trees for making coffins, so people generally don't plant cypress at home.
the third kind: banyan
banyan is a kind of tall trees, which can grow to about 15-25 meters. From the height alone, it is not suitable for planting tall trees at home.
In addition, the roots of banyan trees are well developed. For banyan trees with a long life, the roots will break through the foundation. If they are planted around the house, it may damage the safety of the house.
according to the folk saying, planting banyan trees may attract "unclean" things at night and destroy the family's fortune.
in addition, there is a saying that "banyan trees are not suitable for people". If banyan trees are planted, there will be no room for people at home, and everyone will not be harmonious and their fortune will decline. Therefore, banyan trees are not suitable for planting in their own houses.
the fourth kind: Sophora japonica
Compared with the above three kinds of trees, Sophora japonica is relatively common at home, and there are some objections to the statement that Sophora japonica cannot be planted at home.
Sophora japonica is called "the ghost in the wood", and it is unlucky to plant Sophora japonica at home.
In addition, on the right side of the word "Sophora japonica" is a "ghost", and ghosts exist in the folk. If you plant Sophora japonica, it is said that you will attract a "ghost", so people will not plant Sophora japonica at home.
Fifth: Willow
Willow is also a kind of shade tree. The place where people see willow most is the river. The reason why they can't plant it at home is that "willow" and "flow" are homophonic. Planting willow means the wealth will flow away at home, especially for business families, it is very taboo to plant willow at home.
On the other hand, willow, as a negative tree, will be thought to provoke "yin qi", which is unlucky. Another point is that the branches of willow grow downward. If willow is planted in the home, it will make the family lose its vitality. As the saying goes, "Man struggles upwards, but water flows downwards", and everyone is unwilling to go downwards.
therefore, willows will not be planted at home.
The above five species are the specific tree species referred to as "no trees planted in the house". In the actual process, some friends agree with the above viewpoint, while others hold different views. For example, for Sophora japonica, there is a saying that "there is a tree in front of the door, and financial resources are rolling in", and for willow, there is a saying that "the eaves of Liu Yin are covered with elm, and the halls are covered with peaches and plums".
As the old saying goes, "A hundred miles is different from the wind, and a hundred miles is different from the customs". From the scientific point of view, you can plant any tree at home, as long as you like it, it doesn't matter what others say.
as for the bad statements, they are just people's additional imagination.
what do you think of this? Are there any of the above five trees in your house?
