What does the rural proverb "Let the Qinglong soar rather than the white tiger look up" mean? Does this make sense?

This proverb is mainly used in geomantic omen. When building houses in rural areas, people pay more attention to the degree of geomantic omen. The most basic thing is to sit at the door facing south, and the house should face the sunny side, so that it can be exposed to sunlight all year round, which is conducive to the discharge of moisture and good ventilation.

1. "It is better to let the white tiger look up than the blue dragon take off"

Of course, it is not unreasonable to say that "let the green dragon fly high and not let the white tiger look up" has been passed down from generation to generation. In real life, many proverbs come from life, and the blue dragon and white tiger in this sentence come from myths and legends, meaning that the left blue dragon and the right white tiger are above Suzaku and below Xuanwu, which are the four orientations of a building in geomantic science.

And these four kinds of beasts have their own emphasis. When applied to architecture, Suzaku should be spacious, Xuanwu should be towering, backed by mountains, Qinglong should fly high, and the white tiger should be long and winding. Therefore, in ancient geomantic architecture, it is easy to understand that the white tiger on the right cannot be higher than the Qinglong on the side, otherwise it may affect the fortune of the family. Therefore, it is easy to understand the sentence "Let the Qinglong take off, and don't let the white tiger look up".

2. Understanding in life

However, this is just a feudal geomantic knowledge handed down from the ancients, which may not be applied to life. Only when the feudal ideology in rural areas is relatively serious, what has been handed down from generation to generation may be more prominent.

Of course, you believe it, but you don't. If you know what this means, this situation may be very unpleasant, and things are prone to problems, so it may be unlucky, so it may also be psychological factors.

However, this feng shui knowledge handed down from generation to generation, "Let the green dragon take off and let the white tiger look up", is quite interesting. In daily life, you can study it as an interest, but you don't have to believe it. After a deeper understanding, you will find that the knowledge inside will be more interesting than the reality.
