Feng shui houses are like fish.

People in ancient China have long realized that human beings' attachment and adaptation to nature, food, clothing, housing and transportation, sickness and death are closely related to nature, and they must live in harmony. People will have problems if they are divorced from nature. People's feng shui thought is produced in the summary of nature, and "burying in the ground" and "harmony between man and nature" are the embodiment of this thought in funeral. The word "burial" vividly illustrates this concept: burial after death, covered with plants. Nowadays, it can be seen in many cemeteries. After the memorial service, people scattered flowers on the tombstone or planted flowers and trees around it. The ancient traditional custom of "burial" is still continuing.

Contemporary people pay more and more attention to the living environment. Before buying a house, they should choose a place and look around. So what kind of "living environment" should they choose for the deceased? Especially at present, cemeteries are all concentrated in the form of cemeteries. How many people can realize their wishes and choose a blessed land with good feng shui for their deceased relatives?

The principle of relying on mountains and rivers

Surrounded by mountains and rivers, green mountains and green waters are a beautiful environment that people generally yearn for, and it is also the basic principle of a good cemetery. Reflected in the theory of geomantic omen, it means that "the owner of a mountain will decide that water dominates wealth", which means that choosing a mountain can make future generations prosper; Choosing water can make money roll in. Stone is the bone of the mountain, water is the blood of the mountain, benevolent people enjoy Leshan, and wise people enjoy water. Water is the source of life, and there is life when there is water in mountains. A mountain without water seems to have no soul, so there is a saying in Feng Shui: If there is no water in the mountain, don't look for land again. Look at the water before you look at the mountain. It can be seen that "the master of mountains and the master of wealth" is the simplest and most incisive summary of investigating the geomantic omen of cemeteries. Some feng shui theories that focus on regulating qi emphasize storing wind and gathering qi. As the saying goes, "the method of geomantic omen is to get water first, then hide the wind" (burial book) thinks that the bigger the water surface, the thicker the gas gathering and the thicker the wealth.

The principle of leaning forward and leaning back, embracing each other left and right.

I'm afraid that people have heard a lot in the cemetery. This is feng shui's summary of the terrain around the cemetery. In fact, it is surrounded by mountains and there is a spacious basin in the middle. The "hole" of Feng Shui theory is in this basin, and all the mountains and rivers are called "sand". This kind of terrain is also reflected in the word "burial" mentioned above, which is the word "Fu" (pronounced as arch) below the word, which means holding hands together and forming a hollow cave in the middle. The ancients thought it was a good burial place, so the word "burial" itself reflected the ancients' view of funeral.

Principles of buckling and winding

In the past, quadrangles and temples all had screen walls facing the gate, and modern people pay more attention to the design of the porch when decorating. Screen walls and porches are designed according to feng shui, not just for beauty. Their function is to avoid and block Sha Qi from colliding head-on. How can a cemetery stop suffocation? The principle of geomantic omen advocates "straightness is blunt" and "bending is smooth". The road should be curved and the scenery should be winding, that is, winding. The winding path leads to a secluded place not only has the practical effect of geomantic omen, but also has a unique artistic effect, such as garden buildings in the south of the Yangtze River.
