In rural areas, it has long been said that autumn and winter face west and spring and summer face east. The book "Remember Jade Algae" first wrote that mortals lie down, facing east in spring and summer, and facing west in autumn and winter. The reason is that the weather is sunny in spring and summer, and the head should lie east, while the weather turns cold in autumn and winter, which is cloudy and the head should lie west. This is also in line with the saying that rural areas often nourish yang in spring and summer and yin in autumn and winter.
In fact, in rural areas, there are also many stresses on the orientation of the bed. First, there is nothing to rely on behind the bed. In rural areas, the bedside is mostly against the wall, not the window, because sunlight and noise easily affect rest. Second, the bed should not face the door, which will easily affect the privacy of the bedroom and rest. Third, the bedside should not be next to the door, which will easily lead to thieves invading from under the door and affect people's health.
Matters needing attention in the direction of bedside
The head of the bed facing west will bring changes and make the family gradually rich. Influenced by this idea, the ancients handed down this sentence, hoping that future generations could always face the bedside and face west when making the bed, thus attracting more wealth and blessings. At the same time, there is a folk saying in our country that you can sleep more comfortably with your head facing west. Perhaps this statement is related to the social environment at that time, because the ancient social conditions were backward and the living conditions of ordinary people were very poor. In order to make themselves more comfortable, people put forward this statement.
The saying that the south is rich and the north is dead is also related to the orientation of the house, but it has nothing to do with the internal layout of the house, but refers to the orientation of the house itself. As we all know, no matter in ancient times or in modern times, when building a house, we all follow a principle, that is, sitting north facing south. This is because it can let the sun shine directly into the room, and it will not be too wet indoors, especially in winter, and it will not be too cold indoors.
