What is the meaning of 'no direction at the head of the bed, no disaster and no debt'? What does 'four no directions' refer to? folk wisdom
With the continuous progress of social life and the continuous development of science and technology, various questions in our daily life and work can also be perfectly answered. But I have to admit that in some cases, we still agonize over not being smart enough, and we feel that there are still many mysteries in life that have not been solved. We cannot find the answer from the book. At this time, we might as well look at the proverbs handed down from the ancients, and there may be different answers. China has a history of more than 5,000 years, and the wisdom of many ancient people has been condensed in the long history. The proverbs and proverbs we hear now condense the truths summed up by the various life experiences of the ancients. What we are going to discuss today is that there are no directions at the head of the bed, no disasters and no debts. Let's take a look.
As we all know, the Chinese take Feng Shui very seriously. First of all, it is reflected in the emphasis on the location of the house. In addition, the Chinese also have various requirements for the arrangement of various furniture in the house. The sentence we mentioned above means that you should pay attention to the four taboos when you put the bed, so that your life will be smoother and you will not be troubled by wealth and disasters.
The first taboo is not to go to the toilet at the bedside. The toilet is a dirty place in people's mind, with poor sanitation. Not to mention that in ancient times, people used toilets, and the sanitary conditions were not up to standard, which could easily cause various diseases. The toilets are also heavy with moisture and the air is dirty. If people sleep too close to the toilet, it will cause various discomforts and diseases.
The second taboo is that the head of the bed cannot face the window. The room we stayed in had poor air flow and slow gas flow. Windows are where a room exchanges air with the outside world, so air flows faster near windows. Moreover, since the room is relatively closed and the temperature is relatively stable, the probability of getting sick is relatively small. We are most likely to catch a cold when we are usually sleeping. If we put the bed on the opposite side of the window, exposed to the wind for a long time, and the temperature above the head is relatively low, we will naturally get sick. Also, in Feng Shui, windows are considered to be a kind of outlet. If the head of the bed faces the window, the family's money will be lost through the window. This can cause families to lose money or go into debt. Putting the head of the bed away from the window is also a kind of spiritual comfort. Therefore, when people decide the position of the bed, they tend to avoid the air outlet, which is the wisdom of our ancients.
The third taboo is not to face the mirror at the head of the bed. In Chinese culture for thousands of years, mirrors have the function of reflection. Therefore, in the eyes of the ancients, the mirror is a medium connecting another world. As long as we find the right way, we can enter another world through the mirror. Likewise, the sinister glamor and nastiness of the other world comes to us through the mirror. So the person rarely looks in the mirror at night, which is some unknown sign. Many frail people are more vulnerable to psychological damage and fear from time to time. Therefore, in the hearts of Chinese people, the head of the bed cannot face the mirror.
The fourth taboo is that the head of the bed cannot be leaned against the wall. If we put the bed on top of the bed and leave a gap between the headboard and the wall, creating an empty wall, we will be disturbed while sleeping. One reason is that in Feng Shui, you sleep better if you are against a wall. Another reason is that it is scientifically proven that there is an energy around the human body that creates a certain aura. When people are sleeping, the aura flows at the lowest frequency and is easily destroyed. In this environment, people's health and future development will be affected to a certain extent.
Besides these four directions, there are many popular versions. No matter which version, its original intention is to start from human health and wealth, and avoid disasters as much as possible. Of course, in modern society, science comes first. Believe it or not is a personal choice. Whichever you choose, I wish you all good health and a smooth life.
