The origins of Feng Shui

The Feng Shui was developed around 6000 years ago in response to the need to find good agricultural territories to support the population. The principles of Feng Shui have guided the Chinese people years and years in designing graves (Yin Feng Shui), cities, homes and temples.

This art originates from Taoist and Shaman philosophies- It is about the relationship between humans and their environment. It is an energy analysis, like accupunture, that works with flow and movement and how this Chi can be used to create a sense of well being and harmony in your home or workplace.

We said like this: "fung shway," which means "wind and water," this ancient Chinese design principle is based in observation and common sense.

Over 3000 years ago during the Chou Dynasty, people who observed noted that certain topography and distribution or location were better than others for a house, The principle of ch'i ( or the life force) was the principle factor in the happiness or destiny of the occupants of a house. A house where ch'i was able to stay and gather would be better, or superior to a house where the flow was impeded or impossible.

A good place for a house might include hills behind it for protection and flowing water and gentle breezes around it. The principal idea was to maximize the amount of natural resources occurring beneficial ch'i.

It is important inside a house, to maintain the doors and the windows, all of them free of obstructions. The front door should be well lit. Mirrors around the house are good in any position, but are particularly good at deflecting bad energy (like toilets, drains,).

We must know that there are five elements that symbolize life’s cycle. For its elements there is a corresponding color. They are: :

Fire - Red

Wood - Green

Water - Black

Earth - Yellow

Metal (or Gold) - White

Also, depending on the year in which you were born and your sex, everyone has a personal compass which determines the elements, colors and the directions that are beneficial to their life. This compass has 8 points -- North, NE, East, SE, South, SW, West and NW. Each point on the compass represents a different aspect -- life, health, good fortune, vitality, disaster, death, baleful influence and five ghosts. Superimposing your house over the compass creates the diagram for your feng shui chart.
