Thousands of households are always replacing old talismans with new ones. This verse embodies the custom of ancient Chinese working people posting Spring Festival couplets during the New Year. Nowadays, people also post Spring Festival couplets and choose to post Five Blessings. But there are a lot of things to pay attention to when posting Spring Festival couplets. If you don't pay attention, people will violate certain taboos and cause bad luck.
Don’t post the Five Blessings randomly
1. Pay attention to the time when posting “blessings”
People should post “blessings” in big time Post it before sunset on New Year's Eve, you can do it in advance, but don't exceed this time. People first paste Spring Festival couplets from the outside to the inside, with the word "Fu" being larger first and then smaller. Generally, the small "福" (福) is attached to the window, the middle "福" (福) is attached to the side door, and the big "福" (Fou Fang) is attached to the main entrance. There is a jingle about the order of posting "福" for everyone: first post the door and then the main hall, after the kitchen, then the bedroom, and after the toilet, then the window. You must follow a certain order.
2. How to affix the word "福"
The word "福" on the door should be pasted squarely, because the door is an entrance and exit, which means opening the door to welcome blessings. It means respect for outsiders entering the house. If you paste the word "福" upside down, you will put the blessing on the outside. Therefore, the "福" on the door must be posted facing up. And the order should be from the outside to the inside, first the head blessing, then the door blessing, and finally the upside down blessing, which means that the blessings of the year will flow in from the outside, which is very unlucky.
Where should the Five Blessings be hung?
The Five Blessings should be hung in the east direction of the home. As the saying goes, when purple energy comes from the east, it means that the east is an auspicious direction. At the same time, the sun rises from the east, so the east also represents hope. Therefore, hanging the Five Blessings in the east direction can further bring wealth to the home. When people hang the Five Blessings at home, they will have long life, good health, peace of mind, benevolent nature, generosity and tranquility, which has a very good meaning. Some people think that the hanging method of Five Blessings is not particularly particular, but the best hanging direction is at the entrance facing the door, which is in line with the meaning of "Five Blessings".
What are the five blessings?
The five blessings refer to a good death, good virtue, health, wealth, longevity, and all kinds of good meanings are among these five blessings. So during the Chinese New Year, we Will post five blessings. I hope that five blessings will come to my door, which is also a good meaning, because every year is a day of reunion. And you are not allowed to post the Five Blessings on New Year's Eve, because New Year's Eve is a day of reunion and happiness, so no work is done. So generally, people will do it on the 28th and 29th of the New Year. Paste the blessings.
