The calligraphy work that best represents the Five Blessings is the imperial calligraphy of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, which is the best in the world blessing. This word \”福\” is amazing. The right half of the word \”福\” is the writing method of the word \”shou\” in Wang Xizhi\’s \”Lanting Preface\”. Folks call it \”longevity in blessing, and both happiness and longevity\”. What\’s even more unique is that it not only contains the word \”shou\”, but also implies \”zi\”, \”cai\” and \”field\”.

Lu Ao \”A Brief History of the Ming Dynasty\” also records: \”It is a custom in the south of the Yangtze River to still post the word \’福\’ on doors on New Year\’s Eve. ” It can be seen that The custom of pasting blessing characters has been around since at least the Southern Song Dynasty. .
Everyone likes to post the word \”福\” during the Chinese New Year, but many people seem to be a little confused about how to post it. Some people think about the font and meaning of \”福\”. To make a fuss, some people think that the left side of \”福\” is \”福\” from the perspective of splitting the characters. \”礻\” means \”god\” and generally refers to God; the \”一\” in \”畐\” on the right can be interpreted as the \”beam\” of the house, which represents the family, \”口\” represents the population, and \”田\” represents the land and food rations. In other words , the word \”blessing\” means that the gods will bless the family with adequate food and clothing and prosperity
If you look at it this way, it’s straight The reason for posting is very good. After all, once the word \”福\” is turned upside down, will the \”beams\” collapse?

But people who like homophonic memes don\’t think so. They come out with many stories about \”luck has fallen\” and \”luck has arrived\”. A typical version is. It is said that Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang used the word \”福\”. In order to avoid this disaster, Queen Ma ordered everyone in the city to paste the character \”福\” on their doors. However, one illiterate family actually put the character \”福\” upside down. When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he was furious and ordered the imperial guards to kill the whole family.
Empress Ma said to Zhu Yuanzhang: \”People knew you were coming today, so they deliberately put the word \’福\’ upside down. Doesn\’t this mean \’luck arrives\’?\” Zhu Yuanzhang heard the truth and ordered his release. From then on, people began to paste the word \”福\” upside down, firstly to seek good luck, and secondly to commemorate Queen Ma.

There are many similar versions. The public account \”Bo Wu\” mentioned in the article \”Can the word \”Fu\” be posted upside down? There is no evidence for these stories. The ancient Chinese character \”福\” preserved in ancient residences are all written upright, so the backward pasting of the character \”福\” is probably a new folk custom that appeared after the reform and opening up.
Then here comes the question. We have been debating the pros and cons for so long, but there is still no standard answer?
The general conclusion is that in order to resolve the dispute, people begin to \”adapt measures to local conditions.\”
The word \”福\” posted on the door must be \”正福\”, has the meaning of \”welcome blessing\”, \”receive blessing\”, \”go out to see blessing\” and \”blessing enter the home\” because the door is the entrance and exit of the home, a solemn and respectful place, and pays attention to it. Symmetrical and square. The word \”福\” should be upright and square, not crooked. If the word \”福\” is pasted upside down on the door, the blessing will be poured outside the door.
The places where the word \”福\” is pasted upside down are mainly in water tanks, garbage cans, livestock sheds, etc., in order to avoid taboos To pour out the blessings at home, we cleverly use homophones and paste the word \”福\” upside down. In addition, You can also paste small \”福\” characters upside down in the kitchen, cabinets, boxes, etc. at home, which means that even if you knock down \”blessing\” at home, you are still in your own home. The house is full of blessings. It also means that small \”blessings\” will not come and big \”blessings\” will not come.

But it should be noted that there is a word \”福\” that should not be pasted upside down. This is the word \”福\” mentioned above in the imperial inscription of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty
In addition to pasting forward and backward, the word \”福\” also has some specialties. For example,The actual time to affix the word \”福\” should be in the afternoon of New Year\’s Eve, before the sun sets, and the order should be from the outside to the inside, with the word \”福\” being larger first and then smaller, which means the year. Blessings must flow in from the outside. In addition, when buying the word \”福\”, you cannot say \”.\”Buy \”\”, and \”please\”, commonly known as \”please five blessings\”, which means \”please get started\” and \”please get home\”.
