WHAT IS FENG SHUI?  KWAI LAN EXPLAINS:

Feng Shui means "Wind & Water" and is the ancient science of balancing the elements within the environment.

Feng Shui is actually pronounced as ‘Fung Shway’ in Chinese. Feng means wind and Shui means water. The ancient Chinese scholars discovered that wind and water affect our environment and well being. Weather is created by the changing of temperatures, which is caused by the rise and fall of the sun and the moon. This is how yin and yang chi is formed which creates the environment we live in. Both wind and water react to change of temperatures, landscape & the motion of the earth.

A good environment enhances our well being. A bad environment will cause illness. Landscape and river flow are taken into consideration when a Feng Shui consultation is carried out -  The landscape can affect the flow of a healthy or a bad life force (chi or energy). It all depends where the house is located and the direction it faces. If the house is in alignment or in rhythm with the landscape, a good healthy life force is created.  Good healthy chi will enter the house which will make the occupants vitalised and alert and enable them to make the most of good opportunities that happen around them. Good chi will bring them good health, relationships and prosperity.

On the other hand, if the house is not in alignment with the landscape, then healthy chi cannot be led into the house. The occupants of this house will always feel tired and become lethargic, irritable, forgetful and lose concentration. Worst of all, the occupants may become ill and could miss good opportunities due to the lack of sleep or illness.

This is why we can sometimes feel good in one house and feel uncomfortable in another.

As you may have noticed with modern living, the forces of the sun, wind and water are used to produce electricity. The landscape of our surroundings has become concrete buildings and the rivers are now represented by roads. Today, Feng Shui has been adapted for modern living. Some businesses begin to collapse soon after a road, a bridge or another building is built because a change of traffic or landscape of buildings could transform an area from good to bad or from bad to good. It would take an expert Feng Shui eye with years of experience to identify whether the area is good or bad. Some Feng Shui practitioners with expertise may be able to transform a bad into a good area with the help of reconstruction.

We are all aware of the elements that surround us, metal, water, wood, fire and earth. Our environment and the movement of the stars, which create the motion of energy (chi), can affect us.  The changes of the four seasons can also affect the strength of the energy around us.

This energy force is invisible and it is sometimes hostile. It is like the frequency of a mobile phone or a television. Sometimes it gives us disturbance or good reception in certain areas. Using the ancient science of trigrams (which are similar to the binary codes used by computers) after several processes of calculations we can obtain the exact locations & directions of the good & bad invisible energy.

The negative energy affects at least seven areas each year. The good and bad energies move from one location to another every year. There are also energies which stay constant for 18 -27 years depending on the location & direction of the house. Feng Shui skills can be used to identify and use the auspicious and inauspicious areas.

Life is too short, so when we have a chance to change the quality of our lives and progress to something better using Feng Shui, why struggle?

It would be so easy to end up wasting our lives not knowing there are good and bad areas that can be utilised to help us progress. When a house receives good healthy energy, the occupants will be alert, vitalised and live longer and will enjoy many other good fortunes and happiness.

Due to   limited space in our homes, we sometimes can't avoid the negative chi. This is when Feng Shui skills can be applied to turn the chi to our advantage. It is more accurate if we know how to calculate where the chi is, it takes more than moving furniture around. Recalculation is also carried out from time to time and reconstruction of building is sometimes required in order to make accurate alignment with the healthy energy created by the motion of the planets.

Some houses contain stagnated chi due to the wrong alignment of the site, door location and direction. This will prevent the occupants from making progress in life and they will suffer financial problems. The occupants will also face difficulties in selling the house or business. We have seen that if the existing house contains a healthy chi, the occupants will buy another good house. If not, the occupants will be unable to make a correct decision and normally end up getting a worse house than the original.

Originally the Chinese Emperors made used of Feng Shui skills to win wars. The formulae were later disguised and the secrets hidden inside the formulae. Feng Shui was first used by the emperor but the knowledge was later leaked out to the commoners. Feng Shui was mostly applied to avoid the bad energy force and make use of the healthy chi to improve well being. In ancient time obtaining good health was the most difficult thing to achieve. This is something we take for granted in the twentieth century. Once we can steer away from the bad energy, we can then have good health, prosperity, relationships and happiness.

Feng Shui Masters today still consider health to be more important than wealth. Without health there will be no wealth.
