Why do villagers plant trees in front of graves and at the entrance to villages? What's the point?

This kind of tree is also called. Feng shui tree? The older generation thought that this kind of tree would affect the luck of future generations.

What is a Feng Shui tree? Fengshui tree is what the ancients said can affect the luck of future generations. For example, the trees in front of the grave and at the entrance to the village are what we call feng shui trees. If you cut down the trees at the entrance to the village, it will lead to instability in the village. This is people's understanding of the trees at the entrance to the village. However, the tree in front of the grave may affect a family's fortune. If it is cut down, it may ruin the fortune of the descendants of the grave owner, so the trees in front of the grave cannot be cut down. Of course, this is not without reason. The wind blowing in front of the grave can consolidate soil and water. If it is cut down, it may lead to the collapse of the tomb and the ancestors can't rest in peace.

In the past, when choosing a cemetery, people often paid attention to the word feng shui. We can see from many literary works and film and television works that villagers in rural areas are very particular about choosing cemeteries. Sometimes we should not only observe the nearby geomantic omen, but also choose the appropriate terrain. Most people's graves will be built on mountains. With the coming of the new century, some people will build their ancestors' graves on their own cultivated land. These people have infringed on the available arable land to a great extent, but China is in a state of shortage of arable land, and numerous activities have been carried out? Returning farmland to forests? Activities. Therefore, moving the grave is not for everyone to move, on the one hand, it saves cultivated land, on the other hand, it is also convenient for unified management.

In addition, when the country is carrying out rural reform, it also attaches great importance to the adjustment of rural geography and landform. Graves built near cultivated land and roads are not only detrimental to the unified planning of rural housing, but sometimes scare passers-by. However, it is difficult to integrate the cemetery into the cemetery. Because in the process of changing tombs, some tombs have become ancient tombs, and it is impossible to find the contact information of future generations. If you want to put the grave in the cemetery, it is difficult for villagers to find the location of the cemetery, or there is no relevant means of transportation, and all kinds of problems need to be overcome one by one.
