So what about today's lesson, let's talk about the vernacular, the five elements of yin and yang, and feng shui is good and evil, so we often hear people talk about Zhou Yi gossip, yin and yang five elements, and when we hear it, we are confused, and when we hear it, we feel, wow, this thing must be difficult, not ordinary people can learn. Actually, you think it's difficult, just because you hear these professional terms, subjective feelings, like I asked you, do you know what monosodium glutamate is?You must all be shaking your heads, right?But, I said, that's MSG, right?We eat condiments every day, and you will understand it at once. Therefore, I often say that if Chinese traditional culture is to be passed on, it must be simplified and easy for more people to understand and accept. Usually, I almost always look at feng shui in other places. They will ask my teacher, is Feng Shui difficult to learn, does it require talent?Then I tell them that if you learn Feng Shui and you find it difficult to understand it completely, it proves that you are not learning real Feng Shui, but fake Feng Shui.
So why do I say that?Then this is the simple feng shui that I want to share with you today, then I will use the simplest and most simple vernacular to explain to you the five elements of yin and yang that everyone in Zhou Yizhong feels the most difficult. Understand thoroughly, and then, apply what you have learned, then let's talk about yin and yang first, many people hear this word, and feel very far away from their lives. In fact, the theory of yin and yang is a simple philosophical concept of the ancients' understanding of nature and life. For example, sunrise and sunset, spring to autumn, you can all summarize yin and yang. What Yin and Yang represent is a state in which all things change alternately, and there is no particularly profound professional technique. Academics are in it, you just need to understand, what does that mean?I'll give you an example, many of us now envy those who have a lot of wealth, right, the so-called rich people want to be rich. Then we can summarize the possession of huge wealth into the range of yang in yin and yang, is it that money represents everything?Definitely not, then I have come into contact with a lot of people who are so-called rich, or have rights, so they actually have a lot of troubles, and they are rich, right?The body is broken, full of diseases, or ah, the family is not happy, or ah, the children are not filial, and so on. Then these negative states, we all fall into the range of yin and yang and yin and yin. I'm not saying that being rich is a bad thing. Everyone knows this, but it tells you that if there is yang, you will have yin and yang, and it alternates with each other, opposing each other and balancing each other. Sometimes it's hard for us to see something, the two parts of yin and yang, and most of the time, we only see one part of it.
Therefore, you may only see the wealth of others, but you cannot see the hidden diseases in his body, or you only see the poverty of others, but you cannot see the good wife and filial son in his family, this is actually yin and yang, then they are always opposite, changeable. So, we often say that there are two sides to everything, and what we are talking about is the characteristic of opposition in yin and yang. Then we often say that the phrase "time comes to run", right, what we are talking about, is the characteristic of alternating yin and yang. Then we talk about love, in fact, it is also a combination of yin and yang, such as extroverts. He's usually more likely to go to someone a little more introverted, right?So introverts are more inclined to find a word, talk more, and can take the initiative to find the other half of the topic, so in fact, we call it complementary personalities.
And the two parties in love, they just feel that it is easier to get along this way. In fact, we have unconsciously used this characteristic of the balance of yin and yang. So, you see, in fact, yin and yang are very easy to understand, and you don't need to think so deeply. It's actually a philosophical idea, so why should we understand yin and yang?In fact, you have to understand that there is no constant and unchanging truth in everything. Everything is changing, and there is no eternal goodness in everything, and there is no eternal change. If you are experiencing misfortune right now, then understand that this is only temporary, learn to be patient and wait, and keep faith. Then if you are smooth sailing now, you must also understand the truth of prosperity and decline. We must know how to cherish, but also know how to take precautions. Well, after a lot of talk, some students are going to ask, teacher, after talking so much, why haven't you talked about Feng Shui yet? Then what I want to tell you, yes, Feng Shui is actually Feng Shui, and Feng Shui is in use. All the techniques of a feng shui master are all techniques, that is, tools and methods.
For example, I go down the compass, I look at the mountains and rivers, I guide you, change here, change there, these are all techniques and academic techniques, and what I said earlier is the Tao, and the Tao of truth is the Tao. Grasp the rules and establish the right values. Understand, the Tao of Yin and Yang, once you master the Dao, you can use any technique, just like what we practice, right?As long as you have deep internal strength, no matter how good you are, or even leaves, flowers and plants are your **. So, you look at ordinary people using swords, what do we call dancing swords, right?It's like dancing with a sword, it's good-looking, it's not useful and the real sword master, it's better to have a sword without a sword in your hand, and you use sword energy, right?Okay, I'm impatient to tell you so much, I hope someone understands my purpose. So next, let's talk about the specific application method of yin and yang in residential feng shui, which can be regarded as throwing bricks and attracting jade. Ah, then I'll tell you a story first, I once went to a customer to see Feng Shui, this guest, he asked me, said teacher, I have a pair of vases here that I bought before, I don't know how to place them, then I looked at Li Qipan, I just looked for it to put it on the edge of a cabinet. Then, this customer, he took this pair of vases, put them on the cabinet very casually, and then asked me, is this okay, teacher?Then I looked at this vase, it was a pair, the size, it was about the same, and then this cabinet, in fact, it was not long, so he put this pair of vases in this position a little more left of the cabinet. Then the right side is empty and a large piece comes out, so visually, the left is heavy and the right is light, then I say, see if you can put this vase, you put a little bit in the middle, so that the distance between the two sides is almost the same width.
Then, he put it back in again. Then he said to me, "Teacher, I think this is much more pleasing to the eye than just now, and this small detail above is actually the most basic application of yin and yang in residential feng shui." Then all of us who have studied art should know it. In aesthetics, there is a technical term called symmetrical beauty, that is, to pay attention to the symmetry of objects or spaces. If you look at a lot of architectural designs, it is a characteristic that is strictly followed, and there is a big building in the middle, right?On both sides, there are usually small buildings symmetrical to each other, so if you only design one side and the other side is empty, then you will feel uncomfortable, unpleasant, there is no so-called beauty, right?In fact, this symmetrical beauty is the application. The theory of yin and yang balance is as large as the building and the furniture in the house, in fact, it is all the same. So, when you don't know how to put all kinds of ornaments, decorations, miscellaneous items, flowers and plants in your home, right?Then the first thing we need to ensure is the mutual balance of yin and yang between them. For example, once I went to show a client Feng Shui, and their two children's house was a mess, and there were clutter everywhere, so I asked them to collect it eleven times first. But ah, this customer is very embarrassed, he said that there are too many things, right, I don't know how to put it, just put **. Then, I accompanied him next to each other, and rearranged all kinds of bits and pieces in the house one by one, so a lot of the theory of yin and yang balance was used.
Like your bedside table, right?Two nightstands are definitely better than one, because two are symmetrical, right?For example, if there are three pots of green plants placed on the TV cabinet, then we can also patiently adjust the three pots of green plants, the spacing between them, and then naturally design them in the middle of the TV cabinet. Right?For example, some customers have a certain area in their home that is particularly messy, so they also need to be in this irregular and disorganized state. The adjustments are regular and neatly arranged. Well, actually, that's what we often sayIt's called so-and-so, right?Then these are actually the theories of yin and yang, so what about when yin and yang are balanced?You will naturally feel pleasing to the eye and comfortable, then this is the basic element of Feng Shui, natural harmony. As long as you insist on doing these well, the feng shui in your home, I can say this, it's already good, 30%. Okay, then I talked about the basic application of yin and yang balance in residential feng shui, so you should understand it, right?It's very simple, in fact, to sum up, you need to design and place all kinds of items in the home in an orderly and symmetrical manner, and don't appear abrupt in the overall or details, such as a large one, a small one, a high one, a low and so on. Notice that I use the word abrupt here, in fact, it is also telling you that you don't need to be too sensitive, unless, this kind of abruptness, it makes you feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable. So, what is the saying in China?
Good things come in pairs, isn't it why it's in pairs, it's not three into three, four into five?Because it's a pair, it's a pair, right?A pair of it can be very simple, and it is easy to find a balance point, right, for example, one left, one right, one up, one up, one behind. Then these words can represent the balance of yin and yang, so you can see many Chinese buildings, famous garden design, or power design, a lot, all of them are applied, right?For example, there are always two stone lions in front of the door, right?On the door, there are two locks, and so on and so forth. Okay, that's in addition to the balance of yin and yang. There is also an important theory of yin and yang in residential feng shui, that is, the mutual opposition of yin and yang, one balance, one opposite, that sounds, it seems to be in conflict, but in fact it is not in conflict. I'll give you an example, when you go to buy a house.
Generally, the sales staff like to tell you a word, for example, Mr., look at this house, the house is square, the dynamic and static partition is reasonable, then the dynamic and static partition here is reasonable, in fact, it is the opposition in the yin and yang. For example, if you take out a floor plan and you analyze it, you will take out your home to the floor plan, and you will take it out and analyze the four major areas of the kitchen, living room, and dining room entrance door.
The moving area is forbidden to the master bedroom, the bedroom, the study, and the bathroom, so if the moving area and the forbidden area can be clearly separated from the floor plan. You can clearly see that it is not in an area, which means that this house type is more reasonable for it to belong to the dynamic and static partitions, and there may be people who do not understand it. I'll go into a little more detail, that is, from the moment you enter the door, a certain side of the house is concentrated. Yes, this area is the living room, kitchen and dining room, and the other side is full of bedrooms, which is in line with this theory. That's the opposite, for example, some houses, after entering the door, right?Opposite, it's the living room, many houses are in this pattern, and the right side of the living room is the master bedroom and a guest bedroom, right?Then, on the left side of the living room, there was another guest bedroom, a very abrupt guest bedroom there. That is to say, the living room, it divides the three bedrooms, so this pattern is not in line.
So why do we pay attention to the dynamic and static partitions?Actually, there is also the opposition between yin and yang, that is, where we rest, such as the bedroom, it should be quieter, right?Then we need to concentrate on a certain area, so the area where we often walk, such as the living room, kitchen, dining room, it is just the opposite, the movement is yang and the quiet is yin, there is movement and stillness, there is yin and yang. In this way, we can balance each other and oppose each other, and we can ensure the stability of the overall magnetic field and aura. How much does what you said affect Feng Shui?Will something bad happen?Ah, that's actually very simple, the imbalance of yin and yang means that it is not harmonious, not smooth, not to say, I have participated in many feng shui cases. Why do many people do business and work, they always feel that it is not going well, you say that there is an opportunity, but in the end, there is no result, or ah, he does a thing, bumps and bumps, what about others, things that can be done in one day, he spent a week. In fact, it can all be summed up in the cause of the imbalance of yin and yang in feng shui. So, you see, not only residential, but now many large well-known enterprises and companies, why do you want to do any employee five-s inspection, right?Employees are required to do a good job of keeping the instrument and office desktop clean and tidy, the office area clean and tidy, and there can be no clutter.
On that one hand, it's actually a matter of image. On the other hand, in fact, it is also a feng shui problem, so everyone thinks about the employee's desktop or office environment, is it smooth, we are smooth, we are smooth, the employee's fortune is naturally smooth, the employee's fortune is smooth, the company, it will naturally be able to make money, right?So, what about here?Let me add one more point, in addition to the balance and opposition of yin and yang in the form of items in residential feng shui, in fact, it is also particular about color, and it is actually more difficult to deal with the yin and yang of color.
It's more difficult, and you need to be sensitive to color. Therefore, if you are not looking for a professional designer or a professional feng shui master, then the safest thing is not to arrange the colors of your home too heavy. Try to be as simple and elegant as possible. In this way, it is basically possible to ensure the consistency of the overall tone. Okay, what about the theory of yin and yang, I'll talk about it for the time being today.
I don't tell you the specific methods of your attitude because these methods are not a step-by-step need, you understand yourself and feel the person, you are actually an animal that is very sensitive to magnetic fields.
