Feng shui compass knowledge

A compass is a feng shui master on the dragon, sand, water, and made to the layout of the main tools.Before the invention of the compass, the ancients is to distinguish between bearing with star, in the evening by observing the Polaris azimuth, through it to determine the azimuth during the day.A very early age, our ancestors invented the instruments and keisuke used to distinguish to square one.The earliest day kei is a compass.Before the invention of the compass, to square a divided cannot be very fine.Only in the north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west and northwest eight big bearing to describe direction and orientation.Geomantic art by gossip: kangua on behalf of the north, gen on behalf of the northeast, shake hexagrams on behalf of the east, xun sticks on behalf of the southeast, from the sticks on behalf of the south, he sticks on behalf of the southwest, the hexagrams on behalf of the west, qian on behalf of the northwest.Day, the location will be ground plane are divided into twelve equal parts, with the twelve earthly branches: son, ugly, Yin, bases, Chen, third, and before noon, shen, unitary), and gived the azimuth.Along with the development of processing industry, the needle from key line into a needle, and needle out of the water into a thimble, qualitative changes have taken place in the measuring accuracy of the compass.In tang dynasty, regarded to gossip and 12 earthly branches into two positioning system, and put a, b, c, d, e, f, g, essien, nonyl, decyl ten air-dried in palace in the location of the e, adipic dry outside, all joined to square system, is used to represent bearing.And ground plane Sunday three hundred and sixty degrees are divided into twenty-four equal parts, called 24 mountain, accounts for each mountain] in degrees, three mountain as a result, each sticks of 45 degrees.24 after the mountain from the tang dynasty created, remain to the present.

The structure of the compass

Compass, also called compass is feng shui feng shui master to look at the main tool.Is composed of three parts:

A, tianchi: also called the bottom of the sea, also is the compass.Compass of tianchi by thimble, needle, bottom line, park of cylindrical outer, glass cover, fixed in the middle of the inside dish.Pods, bottom plunger seal has a point, a concave hole bottom, the central of the needle, needle placed on the thimble.Compass is referred to in the end of the arrow direction is south, the other end point north.

Tianchi (sea) on the underside of draw has a red line, known as the bottom line, on the north side there are two red dots, used to make refers to the northern tip of needle and bottom line.

Modern compass with reticle, at the bottom of the top of the graticule, respectively, with the southeast northwest, when using, should make refers to the northern tip of the needle points to the bottom of the sea at the northern end of the reticle, and makes the needle to the bottom of the sea the north-south line.

Second, inside dish: it is close to the compass can outside the rotating disk.Inside dish surface with many concentric circle, a circle is called a layer.Each layer is divided into different slices, some more layer grid, some less layer grid, the least only divided into eight, a layer of three hundred and eighty-four, most of the grid.Each different characters are printed on the grid.Luo Panyou many types, layer number of some more, some less, most of the 50 second floor, a minimum of five layers.

Compass of various content respectively engraved on inside dish circle of different plate (layer), is the main part of the compass.Factions geomantic art will be the main content of this pie on compass, made China's compass encyclopedia of China.

Third, outside dish

Outside dish for square, is the tray inside dish, one point on the outside of four edges of holes, through the red line to become as ten, used to read inside dish content on the disk surface.As ten demand perpendicular, just bought new compass foreign plate should be calibrated before use.

The compass is the fundamental tool of measuring magnetic azimuth of the earth's surface, is widely used in military, navigation, surveying and mapping, construction, forestry, exploration and other fields.

Compass is actually using the compass positioning principle for measuring the square a tool, a compass on the feng shui for dragon, sand, water and determine the structure of the compass.

24 mountain site:

Three mountains in the north nonyl, child, j, the day after tomorrow is kangua, born of divination;Ugly, gen, Yin three northeastern mountain, the day after tomorrow belongs to the gen hexagrams, congenital shake hexagrams;

East three mountain, sockets, b, the day after tomorrow belongs to shake hexagrams, born from the hexagrams;Southeast three mountain, xun, the third, the day after tomorrow is xun hexagrams, congenital against the hexagrams;

C, noon, south three mountain, acquired from the hexagrams, congenital originality;Southwest, three mountains, the gentry, shen, belong to the day after tomorrow he sticks and congenital xun hexagrams;

Western heptyl, unitary, symplectic three mountain, the day after tomorrow belongs to the hexagrams, congenital kangua;Three mountains in northwest, dry, hai of the the day after tomorrow belongs to the originality, congenital gen hexagrams.

Day dish make: used for sand, the water.The ancients thought, the dragon was it from heaven, belong to the day system, for Yang.Water in the stream, belong to the system, to Yin.Due to the relative motion of the heavens and the earth turning around the displacement effect, so for water day plate should be moves to the right, therefore, in the territory of turning to the right to transfer a 7.5 ° in the direction.Has paid five line is trine five line, day trading RenZi with palace, decyl ugly with palace, gen Yin with palace, JiaMao with palace, YiChen with palace, xun has the same house, afternoon with palace, not with the palace, he shen with palace, heptyl unitary with palace, XinQu with palace, palace with dry hai.Make the middle of the median is the site of the twelve earthly branches.The twelve earthly branches according to grow the tomb three synthetic bureau, namely ShenZiChen sanhe water bureau, Yin afternoon triad fire bureau of the third bureau of unitary ugly three alloy, hai bases not sanhe wood board.Chen are ugly not water, fire), library, the grave of gold, wood is the important place to copulation, Yin and Yang are the dragon of water, known as the four gate.

Later song dynasty Lai Buyi introduced 20 BaSu star five line, add the people set, dedicated and sand out of the evil spirit.People of 24 the mountains than turf 24 turning counterclockwise turned 7.5 degrees.Plate and is called "Lai Pan"

The choose and buy of feng shui compass

Quality is related to the precision of the measurement tools, and directly affect to the accuracy of the layout.So, want to make good feng shui, must know what kind of compass to use in practice.

Compass is by the sea, inside dish, outside dish consisting of three parts, the quality of the three parts have close relationship with the measurement precision of a compass.

The bottom of the sea:

1, the bottom of the sea garden box should be a standard garden bar, underwater positioning at the bottom of the reticle should be orthogonal, namely a ninety degree Angle.

2, the plunger should be fixed at the bottom of the sea on the intersection of reticle, and perpendicular to the bottom of the sea bottom, plunger tip cannot have damage, if the tip is damaged, the rotation of the magnetic needle will not flexible.

3, the needle must be straight, have enough magnetic, the weight of the two should be consistent.

4, the bottom cover is best glass, made from organic glass or plastic cover is easy to produce static has adsorption to the needle, will influence the accuracy of measurement.

Back 5, cover on the glass cover, the bottom of the sea, the needle should not drop down.To the bottom of the sea into the inside dish, should pay special attention to the bottom line of the north to aim inside dish in the middle of a child of the mountain.

Inside dish:

1, on the layers inside dish is the main part of the feng shui compass, the content of the required disk level off is smooth, accurate, clear.

2, 24 mountain territory of unitary meridian sockets shall be respectively with Sunday three hundred and sixty 0 degrees, 180 degrees, 90 degrees, 270 degrees of overlap, other each dish should be set in accordance with the standards of a compass, properly placed.

3, inside dish inside and outside the park must be standard, put in outside dish, the clearance between the outside dish and should be kept in a suitable range, tight appropriate wide, gap is too small, the rotation is not flexible, clearance is too large will affect measurement accuracy.

4, inner ring should be a bit tight, loose fixed to the bottom of the sea.In inside dish circle should be one of the bottom of the sea.

Outside dish:

1, outside dish must be the standard of the square, four side bending, deflection, placed inside dish garden concave circle should be in the geometric center of outside dish.

2, disk should level off is smooth.

3, as ten way is to read lines on each layer content inside dish, four thread holes must be located respectively in outside dish on the center of the four sides.

4, a level bubble of compass, when both level bubble of air bubbles in the center, the seabed needle should be parallel to the disk.

Buy the compass can be in accordance with the requirements of the detailed above to choose from.

Second, the outside dish of calibration and adjustment:

1, using standard protractor, foreign plate four exterior Angle measuring respectively, check is ninety degrees, the error should be polished, such as more than 0.1 degrees.

2, check whether as ten line respectively with four parallel outside, if not parallel, should adjust the position of the threading hole.Check whether four threading empty at the halfway point of the four outside, if deviating from the middle point, should be opening again.

3, check whether the intersection of heavenly heart reticle alignment needle thimble vertices.

4, respectively, as ten four endpoints on Sunday 0 degrees inside dish, check whether the remaining three endpoint accurate point to 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees, if there is error, should find out the reason in detail, adjust the position of the threading hole until qualified.

The compass safekeeping and maintenance

Compass is near the basic tools, need not be in a clean, slightly hidden place, if the 2nd served Yang Gong a god in the home, the best on the altar Yang Gong statues.And on the outward journey especially on locomotive, should remove the bottom a cloth or paper, carry on the jacket pocket, prevent a bumpy journey thimble damage.In the use of the compass, attention should be paid to prevent blasting bask in the sun, rain, especially copper has a compass, sunlight accelerate disk falls off easily.With a soft cloth to wipe clean after use.When inside dish rotation is not flexible, can remove inside dish, in the bottom of the inside dish with paraffin wax.

A compass use guidelines

Compass is using magnetic principle, the use needle and the magnetic field associated heteropolar, absorption with poles repel the principle to measure the horizontal azimuth.The anomaly of the magnetic field, measuring location of magnetic material, magnetic magnetic not strong enough, the needle is parallel to the magnetic field lines of the geomagnetic field, all affect the accuracy of measurement.So, when measured with a compass, a compass must platforms, folk to division at the open compass on the dish with rice method is scientific, of which can be promoted.When measured, should try to avoid magnetic materials and can produce alternating magnetic field machines, furniture, high-voltage wire, etc.To avoid interference.Earth's magnetic field in the peak period of sunspot activity will be in a state of instability, the lines of magnetic force may swing within several degrees, not stable geomagnetic field is the symbol of a compass needle under stationary state of flat violent oscillation, cannot be measured at this moment, should wait until after the needle is still measurement.No damage in the magnetic compass level bubble is accurate, when platforms, compass, magnetic side is high, the low side, there are two possibilities: one is the seat of measuring exist strong magnetic field source, such as underground magnetite or permanent magnet material, the second is the lid of the bottom is plastic cover, because of the friction and the electrostatic generation.In this case to find out why, seriously processing respectively.There is magnetite is unfavorable to build of Yin and Yang are two house, should be an alternate location.Due to the influence of static electricity, as long as to eliminate static electricity can continue to measure.Needle is made of permanent magnetic material, the use of time is too long, or placed under high temperature, violent vibration, place a strong alternating magnetic field, such as magnetic will become weak, at this point, the needle is not sensitive.The magnetization when the magnetization treatment should be made for needle must pay attention to the polarity, not against.

Attachment: horizontal positioning system

Day scene positioning system: before not invented the compass of ancient times, people is used to locate the scene, the scene measuring tool between Japan, noon local time, day scene bearing point is the north-south orientation of the earth.

Star positioning system: in hundreds of thousands of years, the position of the big dipper the location is very close to the north and the earth, so it can be certainly square a plough for reference.

Three, magnetic positioning system: the earth is a giant magnetic field, the characteristics of the earth's magnetic field is relatively stable.Between magnetic positioning is to use needle and the earth's magnetic field with very exclusive, heteropolar attraction magnetic bearing of the principle to determine the ground plane.Magnetic positioning apparatus has a compass, theodolite, electronic compass, etc.Integrity with a compass, in fact, is a compass.Its advantage is that can directly measure the magnetic azimuth, theodolite is the point of view of precision measuring instruments, measured with theodolite to square a need to use a compass to determine the initial azimuth.All of the geomagnetic measurement positioning instrument are susceptible to the interference of magnetic materials and affected by the earth's magnetic field changes.

Bearing used in the integrity of the compass took are magnetic bearing shall prevail.

Four, gyroscope positioning system: is the use of high speed turning of gyro, the central axis will never change the direction of the principle to measure the relative orientation.It doesn't have to rely on magnetic fields to locate the highest accuracy of measurement, so it can be used for all occasions, spacecraft, supersonic aircraft, missile positioning system is a gyroscope.Defect is lifted up expensive, maintenance costs are high, and the location of the measurement should be used when using standard magnetic bearing can be used to measure magnetic azimuth alignment.

Five, the satellite positioning system: it is through the number of satellites (usually three) measurement compared to the same place at the same time to locate the area on the earth.Although powerful satellite positioning receiver, but the measuring accuracy of the satellite positioning receiver is not high.Can not be used for high precision measurement, of course, can not be used in the integrity.
