What precautions should be taken when setting up the bed?

01. The orientation of the bed: The first thing to consider is the orientation of the bed. According to ancient Feng Shui theory, the bed should be placed in a lucky direction that suits one’s fate and the house. This means that the direction of the bed needs to be determined according to your own horoscope and the orientation of the entire house.
02. There should be no beams above the bed, and there should be no large chandeliers or fans pressing down on the bed.
03. Consider whether the length and width of the bed are sufficient, whether the bed is flat, and whether it has good support and comfort.
04. The head of the bed should not be against the door: The head of the bed should not be against the door. If you accommodate the limited space of the bedroom and place the bed next to the door, you will violate the big taboo of the bedroom.
05. It is best to choose a north-south direction for the head of the bed, in line with the geomagnetic force.
06. The head of the bed should be solid rather than empty. It should be against the wall, not the window.
07. The bed should not face the door to avoid being seen by outsiders
08. The bed should not face the mirror
09. The bedside table should be higher than the bed
10. The pillows should be placed on both sides, away from the corners of cabinets, desks, and dressing tables.

Pancakes
Eating pancakes on the third day of the third lunar month is one of the traditional customs of the people of Tongan, Fujian. After Zheng Chenggong recovered Taiwan, his son Zheng Jing inherited his father's career and continued to fight against the Qing Dynasty. He sent troops to attack southern Fujian many times, causing heavy casualties among the people due to the stubborn resistance of the Qing army. Under the counterattack of Zheng's army, the Qing army surrendered and Zheng's army entered the city. The people welcomed Zheng's army while making pancakes to sacrifice to their dead relatives and friends. Later, people used pancakes to worship their ancestors on the third day of the third lunar month.

The Zhuang people regard the five-color glutinous rice as a symbol of "good luck" and "a good harvest". It is an excellent delicacy for entertaining guests and is also one of the offerings for ancestor worship. The Zhuang people love five-color glutinous rice very much, but due to language differences, Zhuang people in different regions have different names for the five-color glutinous rice. Some are called Ji Neng, others are called black rice, green rice, five-color rice, flower rice, etc.
