In ancient times, mirrors were used to ward off evil spirits, but now they are used to ward off evil spirits in ghost stories.
The myth of evil: 1. A mirror left in the dark for a long time will absorb the smell of darkness. 2. From the perspective of geomantic omen, the mirror belongs to yin and is the window of another world. Therefore, there is a lot of attention to mirrors in Feng Shui. When a person is alone, the surrounding gas field is very weak and easy to attract evil. There is a saying in the west that second time around invites evil.
To ward off evil spirits:
Li Shizhen, a great doctor in Ming Dynasty, said in Compendium of Materia Medica that "ancient mirrors are also called mirrors and mirrors". There was no glass in ancient times, so it was naturally a bronze mirror. "Bronze mirror indications: convulsion epilepsy, evil in children, avoiding all kinds of evil ways, making girlfriends, treating sudden heartache, insects entering the ear and nose, drum mirror out. . . . "
Obviously, mirrors can ward off evil spirits. Li Shizhen further explained, "An ancient mirror is like Gu Jian. If there are gods, it can ward off evil spirits. Whoever hangs a big mirror can be evil. " Here immortals can explain "qi" and "information". It is worth noting that Li Shizhen said that "ancient Chinese characters are the best", which means that mirrors with ancient Chinese characters are more effective in ward off evil spirits.
Therefore, the current mascots use mirrors, and they are bronze mirrors with gossip. There are not only ancient Chinese characters but also gossip symbols on them. Combining the best auspicious wood-peach wood, it is the wisdom crystallization of Taoist, Yi-ology, archaeologist and historian. The front is a gossip pattern, the mirror surface is a spherical convex surface, which means yin and yang fish, the back is a river map and Luo calligraphy, and the words "Fengtian Shipping, Yuan Henry Town" are outside, which is exquisite.
