Learn about the Feng Shui knowledge of "stepping on the threshold and ruining your family's fortune"!

The threshold has the function of gathering wealth, and folklore says that the threshold is the owner's back or neck, and people are not allowed to step on it. Let’s take a rough look at the specific feng shui customs about thresholds:

1. The custom of not stepping on the threshold began in the pre-Qin period. At that time, courtiers could not step on the threshold when entering or leaving the monarch’s door, but could only turn sideways. OK. The threshold is divided into high and low status. This custom in the pre-Qin period represented a kind of etiquette between monarchs and ministers, and later evolved into the status of the family.

2. The threshold has the function of blocking dirt and warding off evil spirits. A threshold across the door symbolizes the erection of a wall to keep out all bad things to ensure the safety and happiness of the family.

3. In the past, the wooden beams on the threshold were made of the same material as the main beam on the roof, that is, one wooden beam was divided into the main beam and the threshold. Zhengliang can "protect the house and protect the peace", so the threshold naturally has this effect.

4. It is said that the threshold is that the necks of ancestors cannot be stepped on, otherwise it will be disrespectful.

5. There is another saying: the threshold is the neck and head of the head of the family. It is forbidden to step on the threshold and avoid sitting and fighting.

6. It is said that stepping on the threshold will damage the feng shui of one's home and offend the family god (folk customs in some areas believe that each family has a protective god).

7. There are many rules in Buddhist temples. Male guests should enter the temple with their left foot first, while female guests should step with their right foot first. It is even more taboo to step on the threshold.
