What are the stresses and taboos of setting up a monument? The tombstone is equivalent to the gate of a haunted house. Graves are very important to us, because it is said that the place where people are buried after death can affect the feng shui of future generations. Let's take a look at what are the stresses and taboos of setting up a monument.
What are the importance and taboos of erecting a monument? 1 1, the direction of the monument, the direction of the monument should be consistent with the direction of the acupuncture point. Many friends know the details of Yin House Feng Shui. There are 24 mountain directions, and 360 is divided into 24 parts, that is, 15 degrees, which means 15 degrees is the direction of a mountain. If the mountain direction of the monument is consistent with the direction of the acupuncture points in the cemetery, it is related to the popularity, health and career of future generations, which is more beneficial to future generations. Remember the location of the northeast, generally do not erect a monument, because the traditional root is the gate of hell, where erecting a monument is easy to make family members uneasy, gloomy and haunted.
2. The time to set up a monument, to set up a monument for the deceased relatives, should be chosen in the period of 1 anniversary, 3rd anniversary and 5th anniversary. In a year, there are about Tomb-Sweeping Day, Lunar Calendar 10 and Lunar Calendar 1, and the twelfth lunar month at the end of the year. The specific time should be chosen on an auspicious day, and don't compete with the deceased who set up the monument to prevent adverse consequences for their loved ones.
3, the distance between the tombstone and the grave, the distance between the tombstone and the grave can not be too far, nor too close. Generally, the distance from acupoints is between 9 inches and 6 feet. Remember that tombstones and graves should not touch as much as possible, which will easily affect the feng shui effect of graves. Extra-long tombstones and acupuncture points cannot intersect. The specific distance depends on the structure of tombstones and acupoints.
4, the size and color of the tombstone, the size of the tombstone should be appropriate. If the tomb is small and the tombstone is large, it is suspected of being top-heavy. If it is too small, the momentum is not enough. The size of the tombstone is mainly based on the coordination between the tomb and the tombstone, and the color of the tombstone is determined according to the color of the backer. If it is in the northwest to the southeast, because the northwest is golden, it is best to be yellow and white. If you sit south to north, the tombstone color is best to choose red and yellow, and so on.
What are the concerns and taboos about erecting a monument? As the saying goes, when people die, a monument will be built. What's the point of setting up a monument in ancient times? First of all, there are some things on the tombstone that need to be clarified. In ancient times, after people met the requirements of setting up a monument, they would find someone to carve a tombstone for the deceased, which may be puzzled by many people. What should be engraved on it? The birthday of the deceased should be engraved with the exact time of death. If it is to erect a monument to an ancestor, you can look up the genealogy, which is generally recorded, but now many families may not find the genealogy or record it. And if it is a relative who died soon, this will be recorded when the deceased dies, which is very convenient to find.
Also engraved with the names of the descendants of the deceased, the names of the descendants. However, in some places, it is still controversial whether the names of daughters, divorced and remarried deceased are engraved and how these names are arranged. Fortunately, these are things that people can decide for themselves, as long as the family members negotiate clearly. Of course, in ancient times, there were still many things to set up monuments. Like the font of a tombstone. Whether it is a white tombstone or a black tombstone, as long as the red font appears on it, it means that the person on it is still alive.
For example, if parents are buried together, but for example, only the father is dead, but the mother is still alive, then people will paint the names of the living with red paint. As we all know, people will die, but surnames still exist, so in order to distinguish them, surnames and names of living people will be painted red. When one tomb is together and another is dead, people will use black or white paint instead of the previous red font. So this is why the color of words on some tombstones in rural areas is changing. There are many reasons.
Finally, the stone materials of ancient tombstones are also very particular. Tombstones are made of marble and white marble, which can't stand the wind and rain and are easily weathered. Now it is replaced by granite series, which is exquisite, bright and hard. Among the granite with rich colors and solid texture, Indian red, pearl white and Shanxi black are most favored by customers. Indian red symbolizes noble, gorgeous, fiery years and brilliant career; Pearl white symbolizes purity, elegance, gorgeous life and endless sorrow; Shanxi Black symbolizes the solemn, dignified and immortal spirit and deep homesickness.
What are the stresses and taboos of setting up a monument? 3. The direction of the monument
In feng shui, it is necessary to pay attention to the monument. Usually, it is not suitable to erect a monument to the northeast. If the monument is located in the northeast, it is very unlucky, because under normal circumstances, this direction is not suitable for erecting monuments. After all, the northeast is a square, commonly known as the gate of hell. If the monument is set in this direction, it is equivalent to opening the door of hell, which will seriously affect the family fortune and even lead to family unrest.
The material of the monument
We also need to pay attention to the material selection of tombstones when setting up monuments. According to geomantic omen, when erecting a monument, you should choose something that can withstand weathering for a long time, which is more conducive to the geomantic omen of the cemetery and the fortune of future generations; In addition, the color of the tombstone should also be paid attention to. Generally speaking, it is advisable to choose a black or gray tombstone when erecting a monument, which is more conducive to the geomantic omen of Yinzhai and also conforms to the geomantic atmosphere of Yinzhai. Because black is a deep, serious and dignified color, and the five elements belong to water and are cool colors, which are suitable for yin houses; Shadows can also be gray, so monuments generally choose black and gray. But the color of the tombstone needs a more memorable direction to decide! For example, if the direction of the monument is due south, it is not appropriate to choose a black tombstone at this time. After all, the five elements of the black tombstone belong to water, and the five elements of the south belong to fire, which is definitely not conducive to Feng Shui. It can be seen that the choice of monuments is also very particular.
Nursing care after erecting a monument
After the tombstone is erected, pay attention to protection. When you have time to pay homage, you should pay attention to cleaning up the weeds and trees around the tombstone. Monuments should not be crooked, bird droppings should be wiped clean, and cracks should be repaired or replaced. According to Feng Shui, gravestones are related to the good or bad luck of the whole family. Friends who believe in feng shui numerology had better pay attention. In addition, there are some exquisite historical sites, different regions, different customs and different fears, all of which are different.
