\”福\” stickers, backward stickers and positive stickers, this is how I understand them

On the last day of the year, such as New Year\’s Eve or the 29th, from the morning after a good meal, the whole family gathers together to perform their duties, dust removal, posting couplets, Cooking, etc., but the Spring Festival couplets with the word \”Fu\” are posted on the afternoon of New Year\’s Eve before the sun sets.

However, how do you post the word \”福\”?

My understanding is: the order of pasting blessing characters is from outside to inside.

The front door is taped, and other doors in the room are taped upside down.

How do you post it every year?

It\’s like this: first stick the blessing on the main door, then stick it on the windows and walls, and finally stick the blessing on the bedroom door inside the house. This kind of sticker with the word \”福\” can be understood as follows: it symbolizes the flow of blessings from the outside into the home, which means that the whole year is full of blessings.

So, our brains will think like this, when all the doors have the word \”Fu\” on them, why not put them all upside down? Pasting the word \”福\” upside down means: \”luck is coming\”!

However, this is my understanding. The word \”福\” on the door must be posted directly, because it represents \”welcoming blessing\” and \” It means \”blessing\”.

The door is an important entrance and exit of every family and should be solemn and respectful. Therefore, the word \”Fu\” posted on the door should be upright and generous. It represents the open and honest welcome of blessings and the hope for the family next year. People are full of blessings.

I personally don’t like to post the word “福” upside down. Some people say that it is best to put the word “福” upside down right in front of the hall. There is a saying of “福 enters the hall”, which means that blessing comes from The outside flows into the home, bringing good luck ; Some people say that don’t paste too many characters with the word “福” upside down. You can only paste one character with the character “福” upside down. If you paste too many, it will be repeated. There is a Chinese idiom that says “to repeat the same mistakes.” If you paste the character “福” upside down, you will have this kind of effect. It means unlucky.

How to post the Spring Festival couplets with the word \”福\”, whether it\’s straight or upside down, it all means that blessings are coming and full of blessings. According to personal preference, I will post Spring Festival couplets.福#​
