Building Date Selection

Description: The ancients said, ‘Blessing comes from its geographical veins, and blessings come from good times.’ People often consider choosing a day as an unnecessary thing, but even if there are good acupoints, they cannot gain weight. There are also rumors of causing disasters, which are all mistakes in choosing a day. The legend of Xiangzhai Shu in ancient China is that it was created during the reign of the Yellow Emperor, and its earliest evidence can be traced back to the pre Qin period. There have been many taboos in the construction of houses in ancient China, including choosing an auspicious day and a good time to break through the soil, erecting beams, and saying, ‘Do not dig on the head of the Tai Sui.’. The construction of a house is a very cautious process that requires certain timing nodes to obtain the tacit consent and assistance of supernatural forces, otherwise unfortunate accidents may occur. Modern buildings are mainly made of reinforced concrete, which is very different from the previous form, but the customs passed down from ancient times cannot be ignored. Good geography still needs to be matched with the right timing to stimulate its power.
