WHAT IS FENG SHUI?

You may have heard the term ‘feng shui’ many a time in your life, but you might have always wondered, what does it really mean?

Feng shui is the study of the impact of a built-up environment on our life. The literal translation of feng shui is wind and water, feng means wind and shui means water. This concept was derived from an ancient poem that talks about the connection of human life with the forces of nature. Wind works as the carrier of the energy and water retains and cultivates it. In Chinese tradition wind and water are both associated with good health.

Feng Shui helps us change the negative state of our consciousness to positive by balancing the energies and elements of an enclosed space. The principles of feng shui make no distinctions between rich and poor. Anyone can change their life to their full potential just by applying these principles and creating a harmony between the universe and the man-made structures.

SOME IMPORTANT FENG SHUI WORDS

Chi or Qi: It is an invisible and vital force, which is a balance of positive and negative electromagnetic energy that connects your own emotional energy to the space around you. 

Yin and Yang: It is a Chinese concept of cosmic duality which is used to describe how apparently opposite forces are actually complementary to each other. Yin is characterized as a feminine, dark and an inward energy, whereas Yang is characterized as a masculine, bright and outward energy. The balance between Yin and Yang energy is very important.

Bagua: It is an energy map placed over the floor plan of any built-up area (home, office, shop etc.) to analyze the energy of it. Bagua literally means 8 areas. It is divided into three by three grid of eight boxes. Each of the box represent a specific energy field associated with a particular area of your life- like wealth, fame, career, family, children, with the center box representing the owner of the house. It is a tool that reveals how your house environment is connected to the various areas of your life.

Luo Pan: It is an important tool of feng shui. Luo Pan is a feng shui compass, used by the feng shui practitioners to determine the precise direction of any building or structure.

You can apply feng shui to any aspect of your life and make it better. You need not be poor, you need not be sick, you need not be unhappy. The space in which you live has the power, which, if properly used and directed, can lift you out of all the difficulties and assure you good health and fortune.

However, Feng Shui is a complex subject which needs time and quite a bit of study to understand it fully on your own. So, as a beginner, you will find it more helpful to consult a feng shui expert to create the ideal living and working conditions for you by revamping your space.
