Why do Cantonese people seem to be more superstitious about Feng Shui?

In Guangdong, most local people have shrines dedicated to land gods at home, and incense is constantly burning. Blessing strips and demon mirrors are more common in various buildings in Lingnan. Many northerners who come to Guangdong to work hard do as the Romans do and are superstitious. But Cantonese people are superstitious, which is really useful in many cases.

First, because Cantonese people are open.

Guangdong is the forefront of reform and opening up and will always lead the trend. Many new things are popular in Guangdong first, and then spread to other provinces and cities. Cantonese people are open-minded and will not set rules to tie themselves down. As long as it is reasonable, Cantonese people can accept it. For superstitious things such as feng shui fortune telling, many people in other provinces and cities are bound by the argument of "advocating science and opposing superstition" and generally do not take the initiative to understand. Only when they have to do so will they turn to superstition. But Cantonese people are not like this. Guangdong people are open-minded and willing to understand superstitions.

Second, because Cantonese people are more tolerant.

Guangdong people are open-minded first, so they can be tolerant. When Beijing and Shanghai restricted the population size, Shenzhen went against the trend. Shenzhen has relaxed the conditions for talents to settle down, and the conditions for talents with pure academic qualifications have been reduced from undergraduate to junior college, which is unimaginable in Beijing and Shanghai. For superstition, some people in other provinces and cities regard it as feudal backwardness and are unwilling to accept it, but Cantonese people are more tolerant and can accept superstition.

Third, the most important thing is that Cantonese people are pragmatic.

Cantonese people are generally pragmatic and low-key. Cantonese people don't like useless ostentation and extravagance, don't like loud noises, and like to calm down and do practical things. Mr. Ma, the founder of Tencent, is a typical representative of Cantonese. Ma Hua Teng rarely participates in public activities, which is far less eye-catching than Ma Yun, but Tencent is the internet company with the highest market value in China. Pragmatic people are superstitious, because pragmatic people respect facts and are oriented to solving problems. Superstition can't be fully explained, but it is often useful, so pragmatic Cantonese believe it.
