Shuimoxiansheng.com shares the joy with you.What are the Feng Shui considerations for the elderly’s residences during the Double Ninth Festival?——Sometimes when our family members are sick, we will change the placement of kitchen utensils in the kitchen, or the direction of the bed in the bedroom, etc. These are all because the Feng Shui of the home needs to be changed to improve fortune.Feng Shui considerations for elderly people’s residence during the Double Ninth Festival: —— 《1》The elderly’s bedroom should be arranged in a room facing the sun as much as possible. Traditional Feng Shui believes that the northwest position is the correct position for parents and is conducive to the elderly falling asleep. However, its disadvantage is that it is relatively cold and has a certain impact on the health of the elderly. Rooms in the southeast and south with sufficient sunlight are the most suitable. ——《2》The interior color of the house should be consistent with the preferences of the elderly, and pay attention to the flow of the five elements. The ceiling symbolizes "sky", so light colors are preferred, while the floor should be slightly darker in color to reflect the idea that the sky is light and the earth is heavy. ——《3》The elderly room should be decorated with landscape, flower and bird paintings that symbolize longevity, health and good fortune, or some calligraphy crafts. Wind chimes and some vulgar, indecent and unclean ornaments should be avoided. The Double Ninth Festival carries rich cultural connotations. In folk beliefs, "nine" is the largest number, implying longevity, and is a symbol of people's blessing for the health and longevity of the elderly. In 1989, the ninth day of the ninth lunar month was designated as "Respect for the Aged Day", advocating that the whole society establish a culture of respecting, honoring, loving and helping the elderly. On May 20, 2006, the Double Ninth Festival was included in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage list by the State Council. Can keeping goldfish at home improve luck during the Double Ninth Festival?——If there are elderly people at home, raising goldfish can improve their luck and bring them abundance every year. But pay attention to the placement——It is a good idea to keep goldfish at home during the Double Ninth Festival: Goldfish are often called Feng Shui fish, which can make up for the defects in home Feng Shui and make the house full of vitality and liveliness. However, it must be noted that the size of the fish tank must be moderate, and other sundries should not be piled around it. It cannot be directly opposite the stove, because the stove belongs to fire, which is incompatible with water. ——Large-leaf green evergreen plants such as lucky bamboo and money tree should be placed in the hall: they symbolize vitality, produce oxygen, and are beneficial to the living room. You don't have to insist on having fresh flowers all year round, but they must be evergreen. If they wither, you need to change them frequently to make your room more vibrant. The doors and windows in the room should be opened and closed frequently to allow air to flow and the air to be refreshed, so that "running water does not rot, and door hinges do not rot." The Double Ninth Festival in 2019 is the last day of the National Day holiday, which is October 7. Remember to adjust your state and prepare to study and work! |
