| It was customary that people read an auspicious or inauspicious direction related to the direction in which they went out, constructed houses, administered affairs in the imperial court, and started wars, and when they found the direction inauspicious, they relocated themselves to avoid that direction by once traveling to another place. |
外出や造作、宮中の政、戦の開始などの際、その方角の吉凶を占い、その方角が悪いといったん別の方向に出かけ、目的地の方角が悪い方角にならないようにした。 |
