1, metaphor.
As the saying goes, fallen leaves return to their roots. Roots, as the resting place of human beings and souls, can return to the earth, which means the foundation of human relations, the source of race, the beginning of life and the return of life.
The shapes of points and stars are different, so are the points of dragon knots. Venus is round, Jupiter is straight, Saturn is square, Mercury is sharp, and Mars is sharp. The popular burial methods in Chaoshan are: Jupiter burial festival, Mars burial flame, Mercury burial bubble, Venus burial nest and Saturn burial angle (all based on the positive body theory).
In the relationship between Mulong and acupoints, Longgui is superior to Yin, which is strong and powerful, while Guiyang and Yang are harmonious and helpful. Acupoints are also divided into yin and yang. Yin comes to Yang, Yang comes to Yin, but it is concave and convex, shaped like a turtle shell, and the soil is divided into five colors, which is a true hole. If the cave is in the mountain nest, there will be more mixed soil, and if it is in the mountain ridge, there will be more weathered soil.
2. Technology
(1) acupoints. The traditional method of acupoint lowering is that a dragon is as full as a head and shaped like a turtle cover, so it is healthy.
(2) recognition. A good cemetery, in addition to identifying the origin, life, death, dignity, whether there is fat in the cave, there are sand, water, orientation and other elements. Many surnames are full of praise for ancestral graves because they conform to the five elements of Feng Shui: dragon, sand, cave, mountain and direction.
(3) The practice of mud building in Chaoshan tomb.
The shape of Chaoshan tombs is mainly determined by the trend of mountain dragons, the direction of gold distribution and the size of cemeteries.
(4) Mathematical rationality.
As for the size and width of the tomb, except for the influence of knotting stars, the depth and width are all based on the theory of Bai Zi Luo Shu, which is called the vertical pole method in Chaoshan. For graves, the divination ruler method and the inch white ruler method are used. The ruler method is used, for example, to dry (water) away from Pojun.
(5) I wish you good luck and avoid eating.
For planners and masons, after finding a good place, not everything is fine, and the construction is not unscrupulous. There are still quite a few self-protection consciousness and measures handed down from generation to generation. When building a grave, there are certain taboos and wishes. When you start work, if you encounter evil spirits such as patrolling the mountain monkey on the same day and wearing the mountain monkey when killing the teacher, you should take measures such as avoidance and suppression.
In order to seek the success of construction, you can recite a wish or pray for good luck in the future. Chaoshan's geographical superstition theory has a long history. Influenced by the geomantic theory of Jiangxi and Fujian and the spread of Chaoshan Neo-Confucianism, especially the funeral theory advocated by Zhu, undoubtedly promoted the folk custom of worshipping tombs in Chaoshan area.
According to Zheng Changshi's Lu Wenjian on the Han River in the Qing Dynasty, the ancestral grave of Lin Xichun, a scholar at the end of Wanli, was at the foot of Shandong in Pu Sang, and its tomb was shaped like a "lotus leaf covered with a golden turtle", which was really a beautiful place.
According to the genealogy of the Guo family in Rongdong, the ancestral grave of Shangshu Guo of the Ministry of Military Affairs of Nanming is located in Wulongjian, Dushanbu Township, Huangkeng, Puning. Its branches are particularly high, and Wuping Mountain is in the northwest. Obsidian is scattered in the corner of the picture, and there is a tender dragon tens of feet long in the middle, but there is no flat flaky, and the lips are still breathing fire, and the wind is shooting out from the left and right pits. This place is difficult for ordinary geologists to see. In fact, the unicorn in this cave can breathe fire. Guo was born decades after he was buried.
Celebrities in Chaoshan in Ming and Qing Dynasties like to talk about Feng Shui, which is very close to professional Feng Shui. In addition to attaching importance to the feng shui of tombs, they also adopted the opinions of feng shui experts on the situation of mountains and rivers and urban planning and construction, forming a strange feng shui cultural phenomenon. Due to political frustration and the failure of the imperial examination, many official figures in Chaoshan also turned their attention to the study of Feng Shui. Ding Naiqian, the second son of Fengshun Ding Richang in the late Qing Dynasty, gave up his official career and lived in a simple life. He said, "When you are poor, you will benefit from your expertise and learn the beauty of the stars." Military strategist Xu Zhansui was the wife and brother of Yao, a celebrity in Jieyang in the late Qing Dynasty. Within four or five years after Yao Jiaying built several graves, the Yao family was born for the second time (25 grandchildren, one male and one female, nephew generation 10), and it became famous in one fell swoop (of course, Yao's promotion and publicity were not excluded).
In view of the bad habit of burying relatives in order to choose a good one, many Chaozhou literati gradually woke up after learning the lesson. In the 11th year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (1532), Lin Daqin, the top scholar, also listed Chaoshan bad habits as one of the contents that should be reformed as soon as possible.
Although it is difficult to clear away people's good or bad influence on the geomantic omen of Yin House for a while, with the rapid growth of population, the cultivated land area is decreasing day by day, and it is an important content in the construction of spiritual civilization to break the old and establish the new. The phenomenon that tombs occupy land due to deforestation is regarded as absurd, especially since the 20th century, in order to save land, the society has carried out cremation in an all-round way, which really made the phenomenon of paying attention to feng shui in tombs a thing of the past. The ancients first wanted to know how to use the compass. On the 36th day of The Scholars, it was recorded that a family named Zheng invited Mr. Feng Shui to visit the grave. "Dr. Yu took a compass to look after the land for him." When Guangxu Mausoleum was built in the late Qing Dynasty, an auspicious place was first measured with a compass and marked.
The simplest compass also has branches, such as Shen in the west and Haizi in the north. If the pointer on the disk keeps jumping, it means bad luck.
Brother Xiang should be good at understanding things. Song Xie Heqing's "Shen Bao Jing" says: "Scholars should be good at learning things and be cautious about governors, so they can only be sensible. If the autumn moon is bright, all doubts will be released, if the ice melts in spring, I will use my body for a long time and wear my body with micro-holes, which will exist in me. We should seize the magical power in the right place and learn to see ingenuity. "

Wang Xiangfeng (No.:Santong) Master of China University of Economics and Law; Honorary Vice President and Secretary-General of China Institute of Management Yi Xue Association. Executive director of China Quality Education Society, special researcher of China Studies and Yi Studies. Master of Business Administration from Central South University of Political Science and Law, Ph.D. in Social Economics from Xi University. Many listed companies in China and many large and medium-sized enterprises in Beishangguang, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are Yi-ology consultants.
Wang Xiangfeng's Yi-ology thought is: eight characters as the root, house as the earth, image as the water, ancient prose as the foundation, and Yi-ology as the foundation. The fate of fortune in numerology is the key to the layout of geomantic omen. A good feng shui treasure house is to better raise numerology or future generations. If the layout of Feng Shui is divorced from the master's eight characters, this Feng Shui is tangible and unreal. A person's name, appearance, behavior and friends around him are all the same, just like the water in the irrigation room, in order to help Feng Shui get better nutrients. The quality of nutrients is very different from the numerology bred by the quality of soil. Wang Xiangfeng respects other schools. This school is highly respected, with quick response and high efficiency. The geomantic theory of this school is inseparable from the school with numerology and eight characters. Through the summary of several generations of ancestors' feng shui experience, it has become a set of top schools more suitable for modern feng shui theory.
