What's the name of the front door in Yijing?
Yesterday, someone told me that a few years ago, her mother heard that turtle shells ward off evil spirits, so she got a turtle shell and put it right above the door of the house. She asked if this was feasible.
the turtle shell is placed directly above the door of the house?
turtle shells belong to Kun soil in the Book of Changes. -Turtle is also called tortoise, A, Tutai, and Eight are just the representative figures of Kuntu.
the gate, in the Book of Changes, belongs to deviating from divination.
Kun soil hangs above the divinatory symbols, and the fire makes the divinatory symbols bright. This hexagram is often used to describe the night when the sun is below the horizon.
deviating from divination corresponds to gallbladder meridian.
The door can be said to be the breath entrance and exit of the gallbladder meridian. The breath of Kuntu acts directly on the top, and the breath of the gallbladder meridian will be affected-after the turtle shell is released, its mother (living together) suffers from insomnia at night, and wants to go out and walk at night, but doesn't want to stay at home. -----This is the reason why the breath of the gallbladder meridian can't smoothly return to the hidden gallbladder meridian. This is like, Kun Tu is guarding the portal of the gallbladder meridian, which prevents the breath of the gallbladder meridian from returning to the gallbladder meridian during the day. So I can't sleep and want to go out and walk.
Mao-A-congenital deviation from hexagrams, which are in the same spatial orientation. If there is a problem with the relationship between A and deviation, it will lead to problems with Mao. Mao, the most likely to lead to fractures. A few years after the turtle shell was placed at the door, his father was fractured.
Therefore, turtle shells must not be hung above the door. It is absolutely nonsense to say that turtle shells ward off evil spirits.
as the ancients said, "Righteousness should be kept inside, and evil should not be done". The real evil spirits are righting, and the family is upright, so naturally there is no evil to invade. What turtle shells, cinnabar, mahogany and so on are made for the door, in fact, they all attract more evil spirits, and this will be discussed later.
