Why can’t a house be built on a place with proper running water?
Some general Feng Shui precautions when building a house are as follows
1. When choosing a homestead, you should choose a sunny place with water. Sunlight and water are indispensable in people’s lives. . It is taboo to choose it in a dry and moist place, or in a place that is too humid and shady. According to "Zhuangzhuomen", any house that is suitable for living in, a palace and a place close to the immortals' residence will bring longevity and longevity, and people will be safe and secure. It is not suitable to live in a place where vegetation does not grow, not in a place where flowing water is flowing, not in a place where mountains are surging, not in a place where the gates of big cities, prison gates, and the mouths of hundreds of rivers are not suitable to live. This is based on the principles of seeking God's blessing, avoiding sneaky things, hiding from wars, seeking peace, procreating more, fearing lawsuits, etc.
2. The shape of the homestead is generally considered to be square or long from north to south and narrow from east to west, which is a good luck; long from east to west, narrow from north to south, is a bad luck. Meridians are north-south lines and should be long; Maoyou lines are east-west lines and should be short. As the saying goes, "If Maoyou is insufficient, the place will be comfortable; if Ziwu is insufficient, the place will be in trouble." There is also a saying that "when the courtyard grows horizontally, the young man will be harmed."
3. In addition, the choice of base depends on the surrounding geographical environment. People in Shanxi prefer to live scattered, and there is an old custom of not living close to the city. In Henan, it is also taboo to stay at home without a way out. If the homestead is surrounded by households, you may not be able to get around to weddings or weddings in the future. Because according to common sense, weddings, weddings, and weddings are all done in a fair manner, and it is forbidden to enter private homes. So you need to take this into consideration when choosing a foundation for building a house.
However, it is also taboo that the house is facing hills, gaps, rivers, roads, etc., for fear of collision. It is said that the east side of the house likes water and avoids roads. If there is flowing water reaching the rivers and seas in the east of the house, it is auspicious, which means "rich wealth reaches the three rivers" and "blessings are like the East Sea". If there is a road to the east of the house, it is unlucky to give away wealth. To the north is the enemy, and there is a road to the north, which is also more dangerous than good.
