Gourd fortune telling _ What does gourd mean in fortune telling?

Why does Taoism take gourd as its representative?

The voice of the gourd is similar to that of "Fulu", and its shape is round and curved, which seems quite auspicious. Coupled with the characteristics of small entrance and big belly, it seems that gold, silver and jewelry can be widely absorbed. Hanging on the financial position at home, or wearing it on your body, is equivalent to receiving wealth, which will not easily flow out, and has the function of keeping wealth and gathering wealth. In addition, if the feng shui at home is filthy or the gas field is unfavorable, it will hinder your health, and you can also use gourd to solve it. There are many seeds in the gourd, which also symbolizes many children and grandchildren and prosperous people. There is a cloud in the Feng Shui classic Xue Xinfu: "The gourd mountain is now, and the technique is medicine." Since ancient times, people who are engaged in doctors, divination, geomantic omen, fortune telling or fortune telling like to hang a gourd at home or in the office to promote their careers. There is also a folk saying that "if you keep a grain in your pocket, your family will be rich", which means that every household must put at least one gourd to make a fortune. It can be seen that the gourd is an indispensable auspicious mascot in the family. So in a sense, the gourd is almost a natural feng shui instrument, and it makes sense that Taoist sages in ancient books and legends love to carry the gourd on their backs.
