According to Feng Shui, the purpose of placing pictures of ancestors in the house is not only to remember them. But also, to retain their blessings, experiences, and energy in the home environment. If placed in the right direction and place, they spread mental peace, emotional stability, and positive energy in the entire family. The north-west direction is considered the most auspicious for placing these pictures. Ancestors, elders, and guiding influences are linked to this direction.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
