Functions and uses of six emperors' money
Six emperors' money is the copper coins of five emperors: Shunzhi, Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong, Jiaqing and Daoguang. The purpose is the same as above, but the difference between them is that the money of the six emperors can be used exclusively for Huang Wu. Black evil spirits, six to six white, are naturally gold, Huang Wu, and black evil spirits are all prosperous soil, so use native gold to discourage evil spirits (feng shui should be vented but not fought). In fact, in practice, it is better to choose the same size of Qianlong money, and it is not necessary to use the coins of the emperors of the above six dynasties.
Five emperors' coins refer to copper coins with a round square hole. Ancient copper coins were cast according to the principle of "outer circle inside" and "harmony between man and nature", which is the concrete embodiment of the ancient theory of Yin-Yang and Five Elements and has heavy cultural attributes. In ancient times, there was a custom of using ancient copper coins to ward off evil spirits and attract wealth. Usually five copper coins are strung together, representing the strength of the five parties and five elements. The Five Emperors, originally referring to the five emperors of the East, South, West, North and Middle, are five gods and are endowed with five elements and five colors, namely, Jin Mu, fire, water, earth, white, green, mystery and red. The custom of representing the five elements and five emperors with five "outer circle and inner side" ancient copper coins has a long history.
