When traveling back in time to an ancient civilization, there are several things one must keep in mind. This is a guide that will keep you safe when going back to ancient China. While you must obviously avoid causing a time paradox that would tear the fabric of our very universe, you must also keep cultural practices in mind.
- The five phases. The five phases: fire, metal, wood, earth, and water keep the balance of the universe. You must be very careful to live within the balance of the five phases. If any of the phases are thrown off, it can cause bad luck or a number of other disasters.
- Yin and Yang. In Ancient China, two forces control the universe. Yin and Yang are two equal, but opposite forces that keep the universe in balance. Before traveling back to China, you must learn about these forces in order to keep your yin and your yang balanced.
- Ancestors. Ancient China holds their ancestors in high esteem and it is important to learn how to respect the dead. When you go back to Ancient China, learn to respect the dead. Give them the sacrifices they request, or complete the tasks the dead need completed.
If you keep these things in mind, you will be able to survive your time travel journey to Ancient China.
