- Feng
Shui - From The Beginning
by Tracy O'Brien
Feng shui is the ancient Chinese
art said to increase the flow of positive chi, (aka positive
life energy), in a space.
Through increasing the levels of chi and allowing it to freely
move within and around a given space, Feng Shui can help it's
practitioners to reach their personal goals. For millenia, the
principles of Feng Shui have been used to bring success in the
relationships, in business dealings and also helping to win new
friends and allies.
The literal translation of Feng Shui means "wind and water”,
two of nature's most powerful symbols. Feng Shui practice helps
create an optimal environment for chi to flow freely and easily,
just as wind or water does in nature. |

Feng Shui has traditionally been
practiced by experts.
It was created by a spiritual master who was first and foremost
a student of nature and the spiritual realm.
More than 3 millenia ago, he created a basic set of rules meant
to optimize the positive attributes of an area by increasing
positive chi. His dream of making auspicious homes and workplaces
which helped those living and working within to attract good
luck and prosperity whilst at the same time enabling them to
make the most of opportunity when it comes knocking at their
door.
Feng Shui quickly increased in popularity and credibility in
China. People began to gain knowledge and skill in the subject.
Eventually, Feng Shui found new followers all over the globe.
Today many home-owners and business-owners consult Feng Shui
experts when decorating rooms. Feng shui consultants have thousands
of years of accumulated knowledge at their disposal.
An expert can transform the energy of any kind of an area.
Over time, several different schools of Feng Shui have emerged,
each with its own perspective and strategies. The main schools
are:
* The Compass School
* The Form School
* The Black Hat Sect
Down through the centuries, practitioners have refined the art
into a mathematical science. Feng shui is much easier to apply
to a space today than it used to be because there are clearer
guidelines to allow even an untrained person to apply this knowledge
to the home or office space.
Feng shui can help you create a feeling of balance and harmony
in any space of any size. A little bit of knowledge can indeed
go a very long way. |
