At present, there are many schools of Feng Shui, and there are many branches. Public opinion always makes sense, and mother-in-law says mother-in-law has reason. Can we integrate and optimize it and come up with some effective methods?
The division of Feng Shui schools is actually formed by the differences in methods of regulating Qi.
In terms of methods of regulating qi, it can be roughly divided into two major schools, which govern many branches.
The school that directly uses the Eight Diagrams to regulate Qi is the Gua Li School. Including the Bazhai Sect, Xuankong Feixing Sect (there are six major factions and more than a hundred smaller sects), Qimen Fengshui, Heluo Fengshui, Da Sanyuan Yili Sect, Jinsuo Yuguan, etc.
The school that uses the Yin-Yang and Five-element principles of Hetu, Luoshu and the Eight Diagrams of the First and Later Heavens to regulate qi is the Five Elements School. Including Gannan Yang Gong Feng Shui, New Sanhe Sect, Numerology Feng Shui, Positive Five Elements Feng Shui, etc.
Chinese Feng Shui has now developed into multiple schools of Feng Shui. Each school of Feng Shui has different theories. The following is a detailed introduction for you:
(1) Luantou School : (1) Situation School (2) Imagery School (3) Xingfa School
(2) Liqi School:
(1) Bazhai School (2) Numerology School (3) ) Sanhe Sect (4) Fan Gua Sect (5) Feixing Sect (6) Five Elements Sect (7) Xuankong Dagua Sect (8) Bagua Sect (9) Jiuxing Feibo Sect
(10 ) Qimen Sect (11) Yangzhai Sanyao Sect (12) Twenty-four Shantou Sect (13) Xingxiu Sect (14) Jinsuo Yuguan Sect
1. The principles of the Situation Sect
As soon as it is mentioned If you are a Situationist, people will think of Guan Ren and Guo Pu, the founders of Feng Shui who use situations to judge good and bad luck. The Situation School focuses on the geographical situation, mainly talking about ancient evils based on dragons, caves, sand, water and Xiangxiang. Although the Situation School is divided into three sub-sects: Luantou Sect, Image Sect and Xingfa Sect, in fact these three sub-sects are related to each other and are not completely separated.
1. Luantou faction. Luantou represents the natural landscape of mountains and rivers, and the mountains in natural geography include dragons, sand, and mountains. The dragon refers to the mountains extending in the distance; the sand refers to the hills within a range of 360 degrees around the cave site; the mountain refers to the distant peaks outside the cave site.
2. Imagery. Image is actually a profound knowledge in Feng Shui, because it vividly regards the image of the mountain as a certain animal or other object. For example, a certain mountain is shaped like a lion. There are many names for the image, such as beauty looking in the mirror, seven stars accompanying the moon, and so on.
3. Xingfa School. The method of form refers to some rules in Luantou developed on the basis of the Impressionist School, which mainly discusses the rules of coordination between images and acupoints. For example, there is a road that opposes an acupuncture point, which is called "an arrow piercing the heart" in the Xingfa School.
In short, those who look at the image cannot do without the mountain (Luantou); those who look at the mountain cannot do without the image and form. In many places in China with lofty mountains, many Feng Shui masters attach great importance to the image of the mountains and their peaks due to their great influence.
2. The Li Qi School is also known as the Wuzhai School or the Sanyuan Li Qi School. Because the Li Qi School incorporated almost all the theoretical viewpoints of the five arts such as Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Bagua, Hetu, Luoshu, Stars, Shensha, Nayin, Qimen, and Liuren into its theoretical principles, it formed a very complex Feng Shui theory. It is precisely because the Li Qi sect is too complicated that it has been divided into many small sects. It is precisely because of this that people who study Feng Shui must pay special attention to their choices, otherwise not only will they not learn anything, but they may also cause bad Feng Shui.
The following is a detailed introduction
1. Eight Houses School. In summary, there are only two points in the Eight Houses School: First, it is to judge good or bad luck by pairing sitting on a mountain with a wandering star. The so-called wandering stars are: the four auspicious stars of Fu position, heavenly medicine, anger, and longevity, and the four evil stars of five ghosts, death, disaster, and six evil stars. According to the ups and downs of Bagua Mountain in the house, these eight stars are assigned to the innate Bagua directions. If they are matched with good luck, they will be lucky, and if they are matched with bad luck, they will be unlucky. The second is to divide the four houses in the east and the four houses in the west according to the Eight Diagrams of the house, and then combine them with human life, that is, the four houses in the east are matched with the four houses in the east, and the four houses in the west are matched with the four houses in the west to judge the good and bad. Generally speaking, the fortune-telling hexagrams of the Bazhai School are based on the yearly branches. In other words, if people born in the same year have the same gender, their horoscopes will be the same, and their Feng Shui layout will also be the same. So? There are millions of people born in a year. According to the Feng Shui perspective of the Eight Houses School, they are all at the same point.
Therefore, the Feng Shui theory of the Eight Houses School is too simple and rough. In particular, the idea that the east and west are associated with the four houses in the east and the four in the west and the four in the west are even more crude and difficult to be accurate. I hope that readers who are studying Feng Shui will not copy it by mistake. However, judging good or bad luck based on the traveling stars, it can be of reference value when combining the flying stars in the sky with the flying stars in the sky or in the indoor layout. The specific usage will be discussed later.
2. Numerology school. The Feng Shui layout is based on the five elements, happiness and taboos in the owner's horoscope, combined with the Five Elements in the direction of the Twenty-Four Mountains and the flying stars in the sky, and the decoration colors, etc., which has a great guiding role in the interior decoration and Feng Shui adjustment of various types of villas.
3. Sanhe Sect and Twenty-Four Shantou Sect. Mainly focusing on mountains and rivers, the relationship between the Twenty-Four Mountains and the mountains associated with sitting on the house is discussed. The so-called sitting on the mountain actually refers to the relationship between the five elements on the compass and the peaks or buildings outside the house. . When distributing water, the twelve longevity positions are used to determine good or bad luck. The twelve immortals in numerology are longevity, bathing, crown, official position, emperor prosperity, decline, illness, death, tomb, death, fetus, and nourishment. Generally speaking, good or bad luck is judged by the upward distribution of water and the coming and going of water. It is mainly used in Yin houses. However, in the Sanhe sect, the upward distribution of water and the twelve immortals are mixed with yin and yang, and there are often deviations in their application. Therefore, the author reminds Yi friends who study Feng Shui to use the twelve immortals to judge the good and bad luck of water, but cannot use all of them. They must distinguish between yin and yang, and it is good to use all yin and yang.
4. The hexagram-turning sect. The main method is to interpret the nine-star hexagram from the eight trigrams, and then combine it with the landscape to discuss good or bad luck. There are several hexagram translation methods in the Fan Gua school, such as Fu Xing Fan Gua, also known as Huang Shi Gong Fan Gua method. , Zuo Fu, You Bi nine stars to determine good or bad luck.
5. Xuan Kong Feixing Sect. It is to align the mountain direction with the Yuan Yuan, and arrange the nine stars in the Yuan plate, so as to see the internal structure of the water and mountain, and judge the prosperity and bad luck. The so-called nine stars in Xuankong refer to: one white in Kan is Greedy Wolf, two black in Kun is Giant Gate, three green in Zhen is Lucun, four green in Xun is Wenqu, five yellow in the center is Lian Zhen, and six white in Qian is In Wuqu, seven reds are in Dui as Pojun, eight whites are in Gen as left assistant, and nine purples are in Li as right Bi. The essence of Xuankongxue is to pay attention to the prosperity and decline of Yuan Yun, as well as the restraint of the nine numbers 1-9 and the coordination of happiness and taboos in fate. As long as readers can grasp this point, even if they have already started Xuankongxue, they will generally In other words, you can adjust the indoor feng shui for people. But to grasp the true essence of Xuankong Xue, of course we need to study it in depth.
6. Xingxiu Sect. The Xingxiu school refers to the twenty-eight constellations, such as Kang Jinlong, Shitu raccoon dog, Fangri rabbit, Xinyue fox, tail fire tiger, etc., which respectively represent the attributes of the five elements. According to the theory of sitting direction, it is mainly used to regulate the good and bad luck of the twenty-four peaks.
Among the Liqi sect, the Qimen sect, the Five Elements sect, the Xuankong Dagua sect, the Jinsuoyu Guan sect and the Ziwei Dashu sect, etc., I will not introduce them one by one here.
Strictly speaking, the Feng Shui schools are the Situation School and the Liqi School. Their theories also penetrate and integrate with each other, which is exactly the meaning of the return of all laws. Therefore, when studying Feng Shui, you must absorb and store the essence of both schools. We must not only be proficient in the Li Qi School, but also absorb the essence of the Situation School.
