? Feng shui knowledge and matters needing attention of planting plants in villa courtyard
First, regarding the number of trees planted, Feng Shui advocates reasonable close planting. It thinks: when the surroundings are large and narrow, don't plant many kinds of trees, otherwise it will help to shade them; Only the sparse left and right behind are densely planted to block their emptiness. We agree with this view, but some of the following statements are too superstitious and can be discarded: "A single tree is a door, and a widowed mother is an orphan", "One door is full of diseases and many evils", "Two trees in front of the door hurt many people", "The left tree has no right, less good luck and more evils", "The left tree takes three to five, and the husband and wife fight against each other", and "Two trees caught in the house are bound to die. Secondly, the ancient geomantic classics have some conclusions about the planting orientation: "Peach poplars are planted in the east, plum dates are planted in the south, elms are planted in the west, plums are planted in the north", "It is unlucky to hang willows in front of the door", "There are Sophora japonica in the middle door, and there are three floating mountains in the middle door", "There are elms behind the house, and ghosts are not close", "Double dates are planted in front of the door, and bamboos are around it to make money". From the above conclusions, combined with modern scientific knowledge, we think that some conclusions contain natural scientific knowledge, while others are a psychological need to avoid misfortune. For example, peach trees are planted in the east because the sunrise is the first in the east, willow trees germinate earlier, and peach blossoms are one of the earliest flowering plants in spring, so it is more reasonable to plant them in the east, elm trees are wet plants, and it is more appropriate to plant them in the west when the sun is not afraid. 3. Selection of Plant Colors There are few discussions about plant colors in classical Feng Shui books, only a few words, such as "Red flowers on the right tree, charming family" and "White flowers on the right tree, scattered descendants". I'm afraid the safflower on the right tree is related to "peach blossom", which conforms to the theory that the pond should not be located on the right, otherwise it will be obscene. "White flowers on the right tree" is related to the custom of mourning the dead with white flowers, so it is judged as "children and grandchildren will be separated". We think this judgment is nonsense, otherwise the flawless Magnolia grandiflora planted in front of the house would be all wet? Although the ancient geomantic theory did not specifically discuss what color plants to plant, different colors represented different elements.
About the size of trees It is more appropriate to plant big trees in the courtyard. Different schools of Feng Shui have different requirements. In geomantic omen, the formal school believes that it is advisable to plant trees in rows to stop the suffocation around houses. In order to meet the needs of the situation, when building a house on the plain or in a wide area, trees and flowers can be used to create a pattern of "left green dragon, left white tiger, former suzaku, and back Xuanwu", that is, big trees are planted in the back of the house, medium trees are planted on the left and right sides, and low shrubs or grass are planted in front. This way is understandable from the aesthetic point of view, which meets the psychological needs of people looking for a "land of geomantic omen" and we can participate in the application in design. In geomantic theory, it is believed that trees should be planted in high places and low plants should be planted in low places. For example, the theory of "Year of Eight Houses" holds that trees should be planted only when there are natural medicines in the house, and there is longevity and vitality. Dwarf trees or grass can be planted in other directions. The law of metaphysics stipulates that only the positive god can plant trees, but the direction of the zero god is not suitable. 5. Regarding the choice of tree species, planting trees in the courtyard is selective. According to geomantic omen, plants can be divided into two categories: bad luck and bad luck. There are two criteria for dividing the perpetrators: one is based on whether there is poisonous gas or venom, which has certain scientific basis. For example, some scholars believe that cordate telosma will emit a large number of particles with strong sense of smell at night, which has adverse effects on patients with heart disease and hypertension. The flowers of oleander are poisonous, and the fragrance of flowers makes people sleepy and reduces human function. Tulip flowers have soil alkali, which is easy to fall off when exposed to hair too much. This is a fierce tree and should not be planted in the yard. The other is the shape of the tree, such as "the tree is strange, and the pain of anger destroys its name", "the tree is hunched over, and all the money is returned", and "the tree is like an ox, and it is ill."
