Feng-shui

 

 

Introduction:

 

Feng Shui is the art of placing buildings and objects in relation to energy flows, to heighten positive energies and minimise the negative ones. Feng Shui literally means 'wind and water'. It is based on the interaction of Yin and Yang, the female and male forces along with Chinese astrology and the five elements. The purpose of Feng Shui is to enable you to organise your home so that the Ch'i energy, the all-pervading life force, is accentuated by the precise positioning of your house, furniture, decorations and other objects.

Everything, including humans is classified into five elements: wood, fire, metal, water and earth. These elements have unique characteristics, colours and shapes associated with them. They can have a positive or a negative impact, depending on how they interact with each other.
 

Yin and Yang are the complimentary, yet opposing principles of Chinese philosophy. They are like two sides of a coin. Yin is dark, feminine and negative. Yang is bright, masculine and positive. These two forces continually interact with one another and this interaction is thought to maintain the harmony of the universe. When they blend and achieve balance, there is harmony.

Yin elements include houses, trees, all inanimate objects and darkness. Yang elements include people, animals, light and animate things.

Yin and Yang affect your home and the way you decorate it. Read about some common negative problems with houses, and the solutions for them.

The use of Yin and Yang here is to illustrate that your house does not become too dark. On the other hand, in a big garden, shrubs, rose arches and rockeries can have a pleasing effect on a flat landscape.

There is a direct relationship between houses and the roads that connect them. It has a significant effect on the well-being and the fortunes of the occupants of those houses. This is caused by Ch'i the all-encompassing life-giving force that permeates the universe. If allowed to flow freely, the Ch'i energy is positive. If allowed to stagnate, this energy becomes negative. It becomes very harmful when channelled too quickly along straight paths.

 In Feng Shui, the main door has been accorded prime importance as it lets in or keeps out the vital life-giving force that promotes health, wealth and luck.

The best position for the main door is in the middle of the house. However, if your house faces the correct direction, it becomes irrelevant if the front door is positioned in the middle of the house or to one side.

If the door is not in the desired position, create as much space as possible in front of it and keep the area uncluttered. You could also paint the door in the colour that relates to the direction the door is facing.

 You can use the principles of Feng Shui to position your furniture and interior décor in such a manner that it maximises the positive influences and minimises the negative ones. It is important to balance Yin and Yang. It is important to maintain harmony and balance in the home and can be achieved through strategic positioning of objects and the use of colour and light.

The left side of a room is the powerful Dragon, and on the right is the sleeping Tiger. Place things in constant use, such as clocks, electrical equipment etc. to the left, which is the symbol of power. The opposite half, belonging to the sleeping Tiger, must be kept quiet, calm and static.

 

 

The ways to increase this flow good “chi” energy in your office or house is:

 

1)    Keep the area neat and clean.

2)    Good lighting should be facilitated.

3)    Orderly arrangement of things and articles. A place for everything and everything in its place.

4)    One should have clarity of thought, neatness, peacefulness and good taste.

5)    Area should have sufficient place to move around but not to move speedily.

6)    Free and fair welcoming environment.

7)    Musical notes that align with environment like soft music and classical music. And not pop or rock.

8)    To have an environment that improves health (bodily) and happiness (mind). It should not be indifferent to us.

 

 

Environment that repels the flow of good “chi” energy:

 

1)    House holds articles and things thrown around half hazard.

2)    Darkness, confused and careless or indifferent environment.

 

In modern days all sorts of pollution is affecting the mankind. As we can’t change the outward environment, by adapting and molding ourselves towards Fengshui techniques of adjusting the dwelling unit, we bring health and happiness to our lives. This is possible by increasing the flow of good ”chi” energy (positive forces) and consequently reducing the flow of bad “chi” energy (negative forces).

 

When “chi” energy raps against mountaintops at high altitude, the negative forces decrease and positive forces increase. When water flows across earth and mountains, it results in good fertility of land and the food grains grown across it. So, utilizing this positive force that lies behind air (feng) and water (shui) is Fengshui all about.

 

In addition to air and water ancient Chinese recognized five elements that has to be reckoned with. They are

 

Wood (Greenery): Represents nature and greenery around.

Fire (Red) : Reflects heat and redness

Earth (Yellow)  :

Metal (White, silver and gold)

Water (Blue)

 

All the above are source of life to humanity. At the same time in appropriate results in destruction also.
