What do you mean bats don't come in?

"When a bat enters a house, nothing will come" means that when a bat flies into a person's house, something bad will happen.

Bats are nocturnal animals. They can use the echolocation ability to prey on insects and other small animals in the dark. The image of bat has different meanings in different cultures. Some cultures think they are symbols of evil, while others think they are symbols of good luck.

In China culture, bats have two different meanings. One is blessing. Because the sound of bats is similar to "blessing", some artworks use bat patterns to express blessings. The other is disaster, because the sound of bats is similar to "negative", so some people think that bats are ominous animals and will bring bad luck and misfortune to people.

"When bats enter the house, nothing comes" comes from a folk superstition that bats are ominous. If they fly into other people's homes, it means disaster is coming, or someone is going to get sick or die. The origin of this idiom may be related to ancient divination books. The book says that the bat flying into the house is a sign of catastrophe, which means that the owner will die. So this word gradually came into being among the people. When people find a bat flying to their yard, they usually immediately drive it away or kill it, thinking that this can avoid disaster.

Feng shui about bats

Bats have become auspicious symbols because of their similar pronunciation with the word "Fu". In geomantic omen, there is a saying that bats are symbols of wealth and good luck, especially bats flying into their homes are regarded as the arrival of wealth, happiness and good news. This concept may come from the homonym of "bat" and "flying squirrel", which links bats with wealth and prosperity. Therefore, some people will think that bats staying or flying into their homes is a good omen and indicates good luck.

On the other hand, some people are cautious about bats, especially in some areas. People think bats are ominous animals. This may be related to the nocturnal nature of bats and their activities in the dark environment. In these cultural concepts, the bat's entry into the residence may be interpreted as the arrival of Shaqi, and sometimes it is even considered as an ominous sign.
