It can be said that these common sayings are the crystallization of the wisdom of people in the past under the background of the times. In modern times, we can sneer at the feudalism of the ancients, but we also have to admire their wisdom.

People summarize their experiences into smooth and popular sentences to facilitate their understanding and memory.

Today I will introduce to you a common saying called "If there is a square pond in front of the door, the family will be ruined and the people will die."

This proverb sounds quite scary. What does it warn us not to do? Let’s listen to what the old people explain.

1. Why do people say that you cannot open a square pond in front of your home? Is it a symbol of something bad?

1. If you open a square pond at the door, mosquitoes will be a big worry

Since there is a square pond at the door, which means it is similar to a pond, people tend to breed in it. There are some fish, lotus, etc., but such ponds are generally stagnant water. As long as people do not actively change the water, the water inside will be filled with more and more bacteria and debris.

In winter, it's fine if it freezes directly, but in summer, bacteria breed very quickly. This pool of stagnant water will soon attract all kinds of mosquitoes and have an unpleasant smell.

In the past, people’s body immunity was very weak, and medical technology was not very developed. Many diseases of people at that time were transmitted by mosquitoes, and such a stagnant water was dug out at the door of the house. A pool will bring about many disasters.

Therefore, opening a square pond at the door was considered by people in the past to be a harmful thing without any benefit. It would attract a lot of mosquitoes, and the worst result would be poisonous pests.

2. There is a square pond at the door, which is dangerous for children.

There is a square pond at the door. For children, they can skate in the winter and play in the water in the summer.

If the pond is big enough, there may even be some small fish and shrimps in it, which will be even more attractive to children.

But while the children are playing in the pond, dangers also arise.

Once a child accidentally falls under the ice while skating, the child will be doomed if he cannot swim. Even if he can swim, he may not be able to find the exit; if it is summer, it is also very dangerous for the child to fall in. .

Even if there is nothing inside, a child may fall on his or her legs or arms.

Digging such a large square pond is very harmful to children, so don’t do it. Children are as delicate as before and now.

3. Superstitions about opening a square pond at the door

In addition to the previous two hazards, opening a square pond at the door is also a must in terms of Feng Shui.

There is an old saying, "Mountain governs Ding, water governs wealth." That is to say, the feng shui of mountains affects family members, and the feng shui of water affects wealth.

In people’s understanding, a continuous flow of living water means a steady flow of money.

But the Fangtang is full of stagnant water, which not only means that the family will have no vitality, but also has no prospects for wealth.

In the concept of ancient people, mirrors are objects with a strong negative energy.

Because being able to see oneself in a mirror was a strange and terrifying thing for the ancients, there are endless horror stories about mirrors both at home and abroad.

The water surface is just like a mirror. Placing such a huge "mirror" in front of your home is also something that will bring a lot of negative energy to the family. People think that it will bring unclean things. .

Although the above statements are nonsense to modern science, the so-called yin energy and evil energy are actually closely related to the reflection of the human brain.

A square pond is at your doorstep. The combination of various factors at a certain time may really make the brain feel terrifying, making people think it is a supernatural event.

Although gods and ghosts do not exist, the feelings are indeed real, and it is better to avoid them if possible.

Summary:

That’s why the old people would say such deterrent words as “a square pond opens in front of the door, and the family will be ruined and the people will die.” For people in the past, Digging a square pond at the door is really unlucky and unacceptable from all aspects.

Nowadays, when building houses, many developers will also build some small ponds at the door of the house. Although it also violates this common saying, these ponds still have safety facilities after all.

Also, these ponds look like stagnant water. In fact, the water is flowing and changing, which is different from the concept of square ponds in the proverb.

On the contrary, it can add some features to the community and beautify the community.
