What does the Feng Shui term Huoshaowangdi mean? What does metaphor refer to?

It is said that there was a saying in Guangzhou long time ago that if a fire broke out in a house without causing any loss of life or property, some wealthy people would like to buy such a house. The reason is that this means that the place is very prosperous in terms of Feng Shui, especially if the wealth is so prosperous that it cannot be contained, it will disperse in the form of fire. People with good intentions have also found many examples, such as the Thirteen Banks back then, and today's China Plaza, Tianhe City, etc. These places have all been burned down and are developing more and more prosperously.

Is this really the case?

From the perspective of Feng Shui, the energy of yin and yang and the five elements fill the entire universe, so the earth is naturally not a problem. Among the five elements of Qi, earth is the only one that is born and transformed. This is true as the saying goes, "all things eventually return to dust." It can be seen that soil is the final product of material transformation. In today's scientific terms, soil is the place where chemical reactions occur between substances.

From the perspective of yin and yang, wood fire belongs to yang and governs growth and upward growth. Fire is a very yang thing that emits light and heat. There is a law in physics called thermal expansion and contraction. The movement speed of molecules, atoms, electrons, etc. will change due to temperature changes. The higher the temperature, the more violent the movement.

Everyone knows that earth energy will be strong only when there is fire, and fire is a high-temperature thing with an upward nature. Therefore, it can dissipate earth energy, which means it speeds up the movement of earth energy. , lost. Fire produces earth, and what is earth? Things burned by fire usually turn into charcoal, ashes, or other toxic substances. For us humans, these things are not good for life and health.

Fire-burning land is a common term in Feng Shui. People believe that after being burned, some bad things will be removed and Yang Qi will be brought, making the place more prosperous. However, not everything is burned. Wangdi, and due to the development of today's society, some may cause fire accidents, so this statement is not advocated now. Let’s take you through a few examples of burning places.

1. Chiang Kai-shek’s family shop

After Chiang Kai-shek was born, in the third year after Chiang Kai-shek was born, Chiang Zhaocong handed over the Yutai Salt Shop business to Chiang Kai-shek’s half-brother Chiang Kai-ching. The salt shop was immediately destroyed by a fire, and the family moved back to their ancestral home. Later, the Yutai Salt Shop was rebuilt. After Jiang Zhaocong died of illness in 1895, brother Jiang and his mother separated and lived separately. Brother Jiang received the Yutai Salt Shop property and inherited the property of his uncle Jiang Zhaohai. During the family separation, Jiang's biological mother was only given a small building where she lived, named "Suju", which was also called "Fenghao Fang" because it belonged to the Zhou Fang (Si Qiangong). Not long after the separation, Yutai Salt Shop was destroyed by fire again. The two fires were both related to the fact that the Yutai Salt Shop, which was separated from his brother's family, did not belong to Chiang Kai-shek, and it also fulfilled the ancient saying of "the land is burning brightly".

2. The director who burned down his office

In 2013, the director of the Environmental Protection and Water Affairs Bureau of Baoan District, Shenzhen had a "special liking" for the superstition of Feng Shui and listened to Mr. Feng Shui's " According to the rumor that "the place is on fire", the "Director" did something ridiculous and burned down the office that was "lavishly decorated" in 2012. Then he was reported by the public.

To sum up, it is false that the fire burns the land and the more it burns, the more prosperous it becomes. The Thirteen Lines back then, today's China Plaza, Tianhe City, etc., these places have all been burned down and are developing more and more prosperously. This is because it is determined by the Feng Shui pattern where it is located, not to mention that it is only a certain place that is burned, which is insignificant compared to the overall pattern.
