Feng Shui when translated in English literally means "wind-water". It's a 3000-old Chinese system that studies the effects of the flow of life energy to nature and people. Chinese normally refer to the life energy as of the source or all good things are life. Qi is the term they use to refer to life energy (it's pronounced as Chi).
Feng Shui when translated in English literally means "wind-water". It's a 3000-old Chinese system that studies the effects of the flow of life energy to nature and people. Chinese normally refer to the life energy as of the source or all good things are life. Qi is the term they use to refer to life energy (it's pronounced as Chi). In earlier times, Feng Shui was used to orient structures such buildings, houses and even tombs in a favorable manner. Feng Shui practitioners during that time use local features such as constellations, the sun or bodies of water. They believed that by allowing a smooth flow of life energy through the structures will mean an abundant life for the dwellers. Feng Shui is an art that has evolved from its earlier forms. Practitioners now use tools such as a Feng Shui compass to get deeper information about the flow of energy in different areas of the house for example. It's a band of concentric rings arranged around the magnetic needle. You will see this tool quite often used by Feng Shui practitioners. Another tool that practitioners use is what they call a bagua. It's an octagonal grid containing symbols of the I Ching, the ancient oracle on which Feng Shui is based. Because of the 1960s Chinese revolutions, Feng Shui has been suppressed. In present time however, it's seeing an increase in popularity. Experts gauge the quality of life energy flow by using Feng Shui tools. If they spot a bottleneck or blockage they will suggest moving or rearranging furniture or adding objects such as mirrors to aide in better energy flow. If you're building a house, a Feng Shui expert will suggest on locations of your doors, windows, tables, beds and basically anything in the house that he sees fit that could help in making way for the energy to flow smoothly inside. Feng Shui is now gaining increased favorable popularity. It has evolved from a science, to an art and even a business. Most interior designers now implement Feng Shui in their work. Life improving Feng Shui products have also showed up in malls for sale. An art and science of an energy that improves life; Feng Shui is a mysterious system that science can't explain. However there are a lot of things in this world that we don't fully understand yet they work. |
