What is called "Four Spirits"

The four spirits, namely the four spirit beasts, are derived from the four elephants in ancient astronomy, referring to the blue dragon, white tiger, suzaku, and basalt. In Feng Shui, these four spirits are used to express the position and topography; they also refer to the mountains and rivers around the Yang House. Guo Pu said in the "Burial Sutra": "The earth has four powers, and the air flows from all directions. Therefore, the left side of the burial is the green dragon, the right is the white tiger, the front is the Suzaku, and the back is the Xuanwu."
