What are the Feng Shui requirements for residential fence gates?

The wall of the house

The house is a "world" of its own. The wall is the boundary and symbol of this "world". Fences reflect the style and decay of a residence, and are also related to the safety and comfort of the residence. "Book of Rites of Zhou" says: "Walls three feet thick are respected." "Book of Changes" says: "A wall of a thousand feet prevents disaster from entering."

It is best for houses to be square and for walls to be curved. Or round. Note: This is based on the theory of "the sky is round and the earth is round" to achieve the meaning of harmony between heaven and man.

There should be no gaps in the residential walls.

The fence should not be covered with wild vines.

It is not advisable to open large windows on the fence.

Do not build a wall first and then build a house, otherwise you will be imprisoned.

The eaves of the fence should not be wider than two feet.

The walls on both sides of the residential door should be equal, and the height and width should be appropriate.

Doors and windows of the house

Doors are the most important accessory of the house. Feng Shui attaches great importance to the door, because the door is the face and throat of the house, and is a symbol of prosperity and decline. It connects the two spaces inside and outside the house, and is the "air port" and "airway". Through the door, the upper part is connected to the weather and the lower part is connected to the earth, welcoming good luck and avoiding bad luck. There are prosperous gates and declining gates. The most important thing is that the door leads to the main road, and Qi is generated on the road. Once the door opens, Qi will enter through the door. If the back of the door is strong to welcome evil, all evil will gather. Two families are facing each other, and the one with higher family status is poorer. Open the doors side by side, the one with the bigger door wins. Those who are against the Yamen, Prison Gate, and City Gate will be very unlucky, and those who are against the Chaomen and Cangmen will be uneasy. Don't repair the gate tower rashly. If you want to repair it, you must be very particular about it. A thousand-gold gate tower is a good thing. The gatehouse must not be tilted to the left or right, nor too high or too low. The gatehouse should be located in the north and face south. This is a Kanzhai. The Xun (southeast) direction is best, and the Li Zhen (south and east) direction is also good. Xunmen is the Qinglong Gate, which is the most suitable for entry and exit. Within the gate are two gates, also known as the Zhongmen and Yimen. There is a main door inside the middle door, which is in the hall and provides access to each bedroom. There is a room door inside the main door, and there is also a convenience door.

The art of doors and windows in ancient my country is worth studying. The West pays attention to individual buildings, doors and windows, while the East pays attention to architecture and landscape. There is a poem by Xie Tiao of the Southern Qi Dynasty: "The windows are lined with far-reaching buildings, and the courtyard overlooks the arbor trees." Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty said, "The east window faces Huashan Mountain, and the three peaks are green and green." Watching the natural scenery through doors and windows can cultivate your sentiments and nourish your body and mind. Feng Shui emphasizes that doors and windows face the angry side, just to capture the scenery and light, which has a certain positive meaning.

Most of the doors of residences open to the south, east, and southeast, always facing Xiufeng and Qushui. There is often a screen wall inside the gate (the Nine Dragon Wall in the Forbidden City belongs to this type) so that the outside of the house cannot be seen from the inside. The door is moderately oriented and can gather energy. The house is secluded, accessible yet controlled. These are all reflections of Feng Shui concepts.

A small door is unlucky, not suitable for air circulation, not suitable for entry and exit, and not beautiful. If the small door of the house is large, it is unlucky, unfavorable for safety, and impractical.

1. Do not use feldspar across the door from the residential door.

2. There are doors or windows in the south of the house, preferably eaves and sunshades.

3. The skylight of a bungalow should not be opened in the southwest or northeast corner of the house.

4. Opening windows of the house to the north can cause irregular menstruation in women.

5. A single-family house must not have a back door.
