According to feng shui, hieroglyphs-symbols have very serious strength and powerful energy. With their help, you can literally control your destiny, attracting good luck in those matters where it is especially necessary. The chi energy, which is responsible for the aura, mood, microclimate and well-being of your home, largely depends on how correctly you activate it.
Experts believe that with this kind of symbolism, you can wake up and make different zones work. They are placed on the wall, table, monitor screen, carried along with money. In this article, we will look at how they work.
A bit of history
First of all, you need to understand that the Chinese character - it is a graphic-type character used in the Asian language. Hieroglyphics were invented more than 6 thousand years ago, it is one of the oldest types of writing. Everyone knows that it was the invention of writing that pushed humanity to rapid development and served as the starting point in the history of civilization. Thanks to writing, we now have culture, art, statehood at the highest level. Chinese writing was older than all others; later Japan and Korea would rework it for themselves.
Creating hieroglyphic symbols, people were guided by the external silhouettes of mountain ranges, river lines, strokes that reproduce the tracks and movements of various animals, reptiles. There is a legend according to which China was given the secret of arranging the planet in gratitude for the written language. Archaeologists found the first letters on turtle shells, dishes, and vessels.
Out of 10 thousand hieroglyphs, the Chinese actively use no more than 3 thousand.However, this amount is sufficient to compose a wide variety of phrases and sentences.

Writing and meaning
Linguists say that Chinese is the most difficult language to learn, because each hieroglyph is an image that is always unique.
All this must be memorized. The hieroglyph is largely not written, but is drawn and looks appropriately. Any of the symbols has a rich history of creation, it has its own distinctive features, its own meaning, and the nuances of writing. Each symbol traditionally has the ability to designate a part of a word, several syllables, or an entire word. When people start to learn Chinese writing, they are first told the rules:
- the hand does not come off;
- written from top to bottom;
- direction strictly from left to right.
It is recommended to immediately think over what this or that sign is associated with, otherwise it is extremely difficult to remember them. They can resemble figures and outlines of animals, a dragon, silhouettes of plants, compositions. Hieroglyphs are depicted using 200 drawings of a graphical type. Separately, they do not mean anything, they have no meaning. Only by connecting them together in a different sequence, they create a composition that symbolizes one or another meaning.

The main graphic variations used to create a hieroglyph are:
- vertical line;
- horizontal line;
- points;
- broken line;
- dash going up;
- left and right flap line;
- hook.
The complexity of interpretation lies in the fact that very many hieroglyphs are very similar, they are sometimes distinguished by one inconspicuous line, point or dash. Moreover, this small nuance can completely reverse the meaning of the sign.
According to feng shui, signs denoting one meaning or another are able to bring wisdom, faith, hope, prosperity, peace to the family into people's lives. It is important to interpret them correctly.

Here are some recommendations from experts when choosing a hieroglyph.
- Use only those images that you are 100% sure of the interpretation. If you do not have such confidence, contact a specialist, or do not use this symbol. After all, signs can do harm.
- Do not forget about logic, be guided only by it. The “I like this image” argument is completely inappropriate here. Symbols that are similar in appearance can mean completely different things due to the presence of one point or the absence of a hook. Accordingly, they act in different ways.
- Set a task, and then select an executive sign for it, and not vice versa. The symbol should clearly work with your problem.
- Do not combine activating and generalizing symbols in one sector. The latter should be in priority zones.
- If you are picking up amulets, symbols of a protective nature, do not pair them with anything else. They have to work independently, without interference.
