How to use a compass

Anyone who sees a compass knows that there is a place where a compass is installed. This position is in the center of the whole compass, called Tianchi. Tianchi has a magnet. When the magnet is fixed, its head must face due south at noon and its tail must point due north. This is called a compass. There is a red straight line under the compass. The shape of a straight line is similar to that of a compass, but this straight line is always fixed, with one end pointing to the position of the character Zi on the compass and the other end pointing to the center of the character Wu on the compass.

When we are at ordinary times, the first step is to level the compass so that the pointer of Tianchi coincides with the straight line of Tianchi to form a straight line. In other words, the compass completely covers the red straight line of Tianchi. We looked at Tianchi's compass and saw that the magnetic needle and the straight line under the needle formed a line. Only in this way can we ensure the balance of the compass and determine the sitting direction of the house.

Beginners of Feng Shui may not know where to look when they see the compass. The compass is obviously complicated, and Yang Jia only uses the contents of the five layers of the compass. Below, the author discusses the contents of each floor and the use of Yangzhai as follows:

How to use the compass (1) to place the pointer correctly?

Compass: There are three boards and three needles. That is, site needle, human needle and celestial needle. The three boards are divided into twenty-four squares, which are called "twenty-four mountains". Each mountain occupies 15 degree, with 24 directions, 12 (Zi, Ugly, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si, Wu, Shen, You, Xu, Hai). Eight (A, B, C, D, G, Xin, Ren, Gui,). Four-dimensional (Gan, Gen, Xun and Kun) place names.

The right hand of the venue is the right hand of the twenty-four mountains, that is, when we are human at ordinary times, the first step is to use the right hand of the venue compass to determine the orientation of the house. (Zhengzhen is synonymous with the twenty-four mountains on the website)

Another thing to note is that the word "twenty-four mountains" in some compasses usually has two colors, one of which is red. Red words and colorless words have two different meanings. The twelve mountains in the ruins are scarlet letters, meaning strange sun. There are twelve mountains that are not scarlet letters, indicating that they are even cloudy.
