How to hang calligraphy and paintings? Feng Shui calligraphy and painting
Introduction: Many people hang calligraphy and paintings in living rooms, study rooms and other places. They can not only decorate the environment, but also have appreciation value, and can also play a role in cultivating sentiment and self-cultivation. But perhaps you don’t know that hanging calligraphy and paintings and choosing what kind of calligraphy and paintings are all based on Feng Shui and require attention. Feng Shui is a professional term in Feng Shui. Let us take a look at the knowledge about Feng Shui of "calligraphy and painting".(1) The content of calligraphy cannot be arbitraryDon't hang poems that are too murderous, such as "Man Jiang Hong", with desolate imagery, such as "Tian Jing Sha Autumn Thoughts", with depressed will, such as "Shui Tiao Ge Tou Ming Yue Shi You", too sad, such as Li Qingzhao's Song Dynasty poems, those related to the feasting and revelry, such as Liu Yong's poems, and those that describe the darkness of society, such as "The merchant girl knows not the sorrow of losing her country, and still sings the song of the back garden across the river".So, what content should be posted? 1. Auspicious meanings, such as "harmony brings prosperity"; self-cultivation, such as "thrift to cultivate oneself" and "live industriously and act simply"; 2. Create a clean and comfortable environment, such as "gentle breeze and smooth flow" and "quiet room with orchid fragrance"; 3. Pursue simplicity, plainness and naturalness, such as "Praise of the Humble House" and "Returning to the Garden and Fields"; 4. Pursuing career and cultivating both talent and virtue, such as "constantly striving for self-improvement" and "the highest good is like water". If it is poetry, you have to be proactive and enterprising. Poems like Li Bai, Su Shi and Mao are good choices. (2) Hanging of Peony PaintingsThe national flower peony has always been deeply loved by people because it symbolizes wealth. When placing peony paintings at home, you can generally choose the north or south, because peony belongs to wood, and the north is the "water" land in feng shui, and wood thrives with water; the south is the "fire" land, and taking wood to produce fire is a symbol of prosperity. This layout has boosted the Feng Shui Nine Purple Fortune Star in the past twenty years; since the west is "gold", wood should not be restrained by gold, so peony paintings are generally not suitable to be placed in the west. Peony symbolizes wealth, beauty, prosperity, and prosperity, and can be hung in the living room (for newlyweds), bedroom (for couples), welcoming screens, etc.(3) Pay attention to the placement of calligraphyThe most common use of calligraphy in Feng Shui is to ward off "door evil". For example, if the front door is facing the bedroom, it is considered unfavorable in Feng Shui because the rapid airflow formed by the opening and closing of the door will "rush" directly into the room. In this case, you can hang calligraphy on the door to show your uprightness and grandeur.(4) Several common Feng Shui paintings1. Freehand landscape painting Landscape painting is a reflection of the beauty of nature. The beauty of natural landscapes exists objectively and is bestowed by nature. When people appreciate landscape paintings, they often combine them with their imagination and association with life. The majestic and ever-changing Huangshan Mountain and the unique and beautiful Guilin landscape give people different feelings of beauty.2. The picture of fish playing in water has a custom that "water" represents wealth, and fish has the auspicious meaning of abundance every year. Therefore, the picture of Pisces playing in water is best placed at the "wealth position" 45 degrees diagonally opposite the main entrance of the living room, to take the meaning of "attracting wealth". 3. The mouth and claws of the roc spreading its wings should not be facing people. The picture of roc spreading its wings is usually hung in the study and living room, giving people a positive and optimistic mood of "a bright future". But it should be noted that after hanging the picture, the "mouth" and "claws" of the roc should not be facing people's head, so it is generally not suitable to be hung on the sofa or chair. In addition, please note that it is not advisable to hang a chicken if there is a dragon or snake in the family, as the zodiac signs are in conflict. 4. The placement of landscape paintings is more particular. Generally, they are suitable to be placed in the seating area of the house (the other side of the door) or on the left side of the chair or bed in the room. Paintings of flat and round mountains can also be hung behind the desk as a "backrest" to increase the luck of noble people. Easy to hang behind seats in living rooms, conference rooms, offices, etc. 5. Due to the principle of the five elements, the picture of smooth sailing should not be hung in the south. In addition, it must be noted that the waves under the sailboat cannot face the doors and windows. 6. The picture of chicken represents good luck. There is a folk custom that chickens eat all kinds of insects. Therefore, it is easy to hang it in the child’s bedroom when the child is young. There is a legend that it can prevent children from getting sick and ward off evil spirits. It is not suitable to hang it outside. 7. Bamboo and Lotus Bamboo and lotus are both obvious story themes. Bamboo symbolizes rising and getting better and better. It is suitable for people who are enterprising and have a strong career. It can be hung in the study room, children's bedroom, office, etc. The lotus, also known as the lotus, symbolizes harmony and is untainted by the mud. For Buddhists, it also symbolizes perfection and kindness. It is easy to hang in the living room, conference room, elderly people's bedroom, etc. to show one's integrity. 8. Picture of Nine Fishes "Picture of Nine Fishes" depicts nine playful carps. "Nine" means long-lasting. "Fish" represents good luck and abundance every year. In Feng Shui, it is said that red fish can bring good luck, so hanging a painting of "Nine Fish and Lotus" in the living room can bring good luck and wealth. 9. Peony Picture of Wealth and Good Fortune Peony is elegant and luxurious, with large and beautiful flowers, symbolizing wealth and good fortune. It is the most common subject in home painting and calligraphy decoration. 10. Zhong Kui Picture Zhong Kui wards off evil spirits, so it is hung in the front, such as above the screen, TV, etc. But there is also a saying that it is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away, so try not to hang them. However, if the room is dim and has a strong negative energy, you should hang this kind of calligraphy and painting. The "feng shui art" of hanging calligraphy and paintings must be believed in. These "rules and regulations" are the rules that the Chinese have followed for thousands of years. Proper hanging can at least take into account the guests' feelings and opinions when entertaining guests, avoiding objections. It also gives people the image of a sophisticated and sensible family style and creates a harmonious living environment. 11. Auspicious Plum Blossom Picture The plum blossom has five petals, representing the five auspicious gods. The five blessings are longevity, wealth, happiness, virtue and health mentioned above. Moreover, the plum blossom "has the most beautiful natural qualities and blooms alone in the coldest winter." It is one of the four gentlemen among flowers and a symbol of the highest ideal of personality of Chinese literati. Feng Shui Taboos When Hanging Paintings1. The calligraphy and painting above the sofa should be horizontal rather than vertical. If the sofa and the calligraphy and painting form two balanced horizontal lines, they can complement each other.Second, pictures of ferocious wild animals should not be purchased; 3. It is not advisable to hang more than one abstract painting of a person, as it will cause family members to have mood swings, psychological imbalance, and prone to nervousness; 4. Do not buy pictures that are too dark in color or have too much black. Such paintings make people feel heavy, depressed, pessimistic and lack of motivation to do things; 5. It is not appropriate to hang a large portrait of a deceased relative, as it will add more pressure to your work; 6. It is not appropriate to hang pictures of waterfalls, as these pictures indicate that the family's luck will fluctuate. 7. Do not hang paintings of sunsets, as such paintings can have a depressing effect on people. 8. If you hang a landscape painting in the hall, you should make sure that the water flows into the house, not out, because landscapes represent people and water represents wealth. Water flowing in means wealth coming in, while water flowing out means wealth going out. For boat paintings, the bow of the boat should face the house, not the outside. 9. Don’t hang too many red paintings, as it may cause family members to get hurt or become irritable; 10. Some depressing pictures are not suitable to be hung in the living room. They generally include raging waves, withered leaves, setting sun, a lonely journey, the wilderness in deep winter, fighting between vicious beasts, withered vines and old trees. Such calligraphy and paintings will appear listless and gloomy. If you live in such an environment, your mood will naturally be affected. Therefore, it is appropriate to hang calligraphy and paintings with auspicious meanings in the living room. In addition, if the room is too dark, you can hang a sunflower picture on the dark wall of the house, which means "sunny flowers and trees are easy to come into spring." It can make up for the defects in lighting. |
