What is Feng Shui?

Feng Shui is all about organising your space and time to create balance and harmony and attract and sustain positive circumstances for you and your loved ones. The rules that it uses are very ancient ones, based on Taoist philosophy. These rules are the same ones that form the basis of acupuncture – now used worldwide and as a major part of the basic health care system for 104 million people in China.

Feng Shui takes into account the seasons and natural cycles of the Sun and Moon, day and night, yin and yang. Its basis is an ancient Chinese book of wisdom, also used for predicting the future, called the I Ching (this translates as Easy Change). The idea behind this ancient text is that life is all about change – so if you have to go through it, you may as well make it as easy as possible! 

I always like to stress that feng shui is based on the Eastern philosophy of Taoism. This is a philosophy and NOT a religion. This means that it can be used by everyone and anyone, regardless of their faith.

So how, as 21st century human beings, can we use this ancient art.  On the face of it, we are living very different lives from our ancestors. The modern world relies heavily on computer technology – all of which is based on a binary system.

However, the foundation of the I Ching is also the binary system of yin and yang. Perhaps we have more in common with our ancestors than immediately apparent.

3,000 years ago, Feng Shui was considered so powerful that it was only for emperors. It was common practice for the Feng Shui Master to be restricted to the emperor’s palace and grounds. Also, only men were Feng Shui Masters, the art being passed down from father to son. Fortunately, things have moved on, and nowadays women, as well as men, practice this fascinating art.

Feng Shui is used in both the East and the West by individuals and companies to create improvements in their finances, relationships (both business and personal) and well being.
