In traditional culture, furniture is not only a practical object in daily life, but also contains many meanings and feng shui exquisiteness. As a common household item, although the stool may seem ordinary, if not chosen properly, it may also affect the fortune and atmosphere of the family. There is an old saying: "Three stools into the house, the home is not safe", the following three kinds of stools can not be given away for free, do you have one?
1. Three-legged stool
While three-legged stools are unique in design and look artistic, they symbolize instability from a Feng Shui perspective. The three-legged structure is inherently less stable than the four-legged, implying that the family relationship is not harmonious and prone to disputes. Especially in families with elderly people and young children, the use of three-legged stools may also increase safety hazards because they are prone to tipping over when in use.
In addition, the three-legged stool was often used on punishment occasions in ancient times and had a symbol of bad luck. Although this method is no longer used in modern society, this negative cultural symbol has been preserved. Whether from a practical or moral point of view, a three-legged stool is not suitable as a common piece of furniture in the home.
2. Worn rattan chairs
Rattan chairs are loved by many families for their good breathability and high comfort. However, once the rattan chair is damaged, especially the rattan is broken, the bench surface is dented, etc., it will not only affect the aesthetics and comfort of use, but also may bring bad implications. Worn-out furniture is seen in Feng Shui as a symbol of "broken wealth", which can make the family's fortune unfavorable and financial fortune decline.
A shabby rattan chair may also suggest the hardships and instability of family life. This symbol is especially evident when the family's financial situation is poor. Therefore, it is recommended that friends who have shabby rattan chairs at home replace them with new furniture as soon as possible so as not to affect the overall atmosphere of the family.
3. Wooden stools that are too old
Old wooden stools are sometimes considered collectible because of their age. But if the origin of these wooden stools is unknown, or they are bought from the antique market, they may sometimes have a bad "aura". In Feng Shui, wooden stools symbolize the foundation and stability of the family, while old wooden stools may indicate that the elderly in the family are in poor health or that the family foundation is unstable.
In addition, old wooden benches can also easily breed mold if left in a dark and damp environment for a long time, which can adversely affect the health of family members. For some families who believe in Feng Shui, this type of stool is regarded as unlucky. Therefore, if you have a wooden stool in your home that is too old, it is advisable to check and clean it regularly, and if necessary, consider replacing it.
How to choose the right stool
Now that we know the feng shui taboos of these three types of stools, what should we pay attention to when choosing a home stool? First of all, the material and design of the stool should be practical and comfortable, and avoid choosing too outlandish shapes or materials. A four-legged stool is the most stable option that can bring stability to the family.
In addition, the color and style of furniture should also be in harmony with the overall style of the home. Warm colors can elevate the mood of the home, while colors that are too dark can be oppressive. When buying new furniture, try to choose formal channels to ensure that the quality of the furniture is reliable and avoid buying antique furniture from unknown sources.
Finally, regular cleaning and maintenance of furniture in your home is also an important part of keeping your home clean and comfortable. A clean and orderly family environment not only contributes to the physical and mental health of the family, but also brings good feng shui fortune.
Through the above introduction, I hope you will have more understanding and attention to the choice of furniture at home. When decorating and decorating the home, it is necessary to consider not only the aesthetics and practicality, but also the feng shui in it, so as to create a harmonious and comfortable living space for the family.
