Truck Feng Shui: Where Does Bad Luck Come From?
There’s a Vietnamese saying: “Respect the sacred, avoid the taboo.” When owning a truck, besides focusing on technical aspects, many drivers also pay attention to spiritual elements and feng shui. They believe that the truck is like a “companion,” contributing to fortune and luck on every journey.
Therefore, choosing a vehicle color and license plate that matches the owner’s destiny and age is considered crucial. Furthermore, keeping the vehicle clean and decorating the interior harmoniously are also believed to attract positive energy and ward off bad luck.
