Wealth does not enter the dirty door, and blessing does not moisturize the dirty person.

A clean home and prosperous Feng Shui

According to legend, as early as the Yao and Shun eras, people had the custom of sweeping dust during the New Year. It is recorded in Zhou Shu's "Secret House Building Sutra": The ditches are dredged, the house is clean, there is no filth, and no plague occurs. Sweeping dust was originally a ritual to drive away diseases, but later it gradually evolved into a tradition of praying for blessings and welcoming the new year. Every day on this day, every household sweeps their doors to remove dust and filth, and cleans their courtyards to pray for a happy new year. The tidier a home is, the more comfortable it is to live in, and the better its feng shui will be.

There is a folk legend that someone met the Jade Emperor and slandered the people for disrespecting the gods. The Jade Emperor was angry and sent spiritual officials to hang spider webs in the homes of disrespectful people to await punishment on New Year's Eve. Someone secretly caused trouble and first put cobwebs on all the people's homes. After the Kitchen God learned about this, he thought of a way to save the people. He proposed that on the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, everyone should clean the inside and outside of their houses.

On that day, every house was spotless, the cobwebs were cleaned, and the people escaped. Since then, in order to eliminate disasters, people have designated the period from the 24th of the twelfth lunar month to New Year's Eve as "Dust Sweeping Day". Sweep away bad luck, get rid of bad luck, and blessings will come uninvited. Mr. Lao She would mobilize the whole family for a general cleaning every year on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month. The books on the bookshelf should be taken down, dusted one by one, and then recoded one by one.

The entire bookshelf needs to be wiped down from the inside out, including the top and the carvings. The children stepped on the ladder to clean the dust, and he squatted on the ground to wash the rag. After washing, he threw the rag up and yelled, "Boy, pick up the escort." The whole room echoed with laughter.

People stand because of their houses, and their houses survive because of people. People and houses support each other and connect with the world.

The environment is an energy field that will subtly affect our mentality and destiny. If the house is messy, the mind will be irritable, and negative energy will take advantage of it; if the house is tidy, the mind will be happy, and all kinds of good things will come one after another. A clean home is the best blessed place in the world. Welcome in the New Year, start by cleaning out your house. Only if the house is clean can Najib be transported to happiness and health.
