Feng Shui is literally translated to as “wind-water” in English. It’s a 3000-old Chinese system that studies the flow of life energy or normally referred to as “Qi” (pronounced as chi). The Chinese believed that if one could balance this life energy, he will have good health and fortune.

To explain Feng Shui is general terms, you can think of a stream of water flowing fast down the river. If you have any rocks blocking the waters way, the flow is disrupted and that rock will eventually wither in time. Feng Shui experts believe that a smooth flow of life energy in our surroundings could mean an abundant life to nature and its people. If there are any blockages however, like the rock, it can damage our lives, or simply put we might experience negative things such as financial hardships, family conflicts, etc. Experts gauge the quality of life energy flow by using Feng Shui tools. If they spot a bottleneck or blockage they will suggest moving or rearranging furniture or adding objects such as mirrors to aide in better energy flow. If you’re building a house, a Feng Shui expert will suggest on locations of your doors, windows, tables, beds and basically anything in the house that he sees fit to that could help in making way for the energy to flow smoothly inside.

Feng Shui was once unknown to the world outside China. Outsiders started to hear about this after china opened up for world trade. However in 1960s, during the Chinese revolution, it was suppressed. Presently, Feng Shui is gaining favorable popularity throughout the world.

There are schools now claiming to teach Feng Shui. This system however has been passed down poorly. Most probably because there aren’t really some credible references that they do work and we’re not sure if there is a process that needs to be followed to do this. Even with this mystic cloud all over Feng Shui, many people claim that they do work.

An art and science of an energy that improves life; Feng Shui is a mysterious system that science can’t explain. However there are a lot of things in this world that we don’t fully understand yet they work.
