Whenever you switch on the
television, browse any website, or even flip through any
lifestyle magazine; you always come across colorful
advertisements, reports and full-page articles specifically
dedicated to Feng Shui. We wonder if these things can
actually elevate and enhance the quality of our lives and we
go ahead and listen or read things on this subject that can
help us in achieving a good way of leading a healthy life.
It is true that we have heard a lot about Feng Shui in our
daily lives and also come across many programs on it. Still
some questions are left unanswered. We wonder, what exactly
is feng shui? Well, it means air and water and in ancient
times, it was known as Kan-Yu that means the law of heaven
and earth. It is a discipline with guidelines that are
compatible with many techniques of architectural planning,
as well as internal furniture arrangements. The basic
components of it are space, weather, astronomy, and
geomagnetism. Proponents claim that it has a positive effect
on health, wealth, and personal relationships. That is why
many people are following this form of cosmology. Today
there are many schools that teach the ancient Chinese
practice of placement and arrangement of space to achieve
harmony within the environment.
Earlier, it relied on
astronomy to find correlations between humans and the
universe. In fact, Chinese often used the celestial pole to
determine the north and south axis of settlements. The aim
of feng shui as practiced and followed today, is to situate
the human built environment on spots with good qi. Well
there is also a perfect spot, which is a location and an
axis in time. In fact, some current techniques can be traced
back to Neolithic China, while others were added in later
times, mostly during the rein of Han, the Tang and the Ming
dynasties. To determine the perfect spot, local
manifestations of qi must be assessed for quality. The
quality is further determined by observations made by
compass known as Luopan. However, Qi is a difficult to
translate and hence is left is untranslated. The word means
air.
In feng shui, Qi means flow of energy. The compass is used
to determine many things, including the detection of the
direction of the flow of qi. Thus, compasses reflect local
geomagnetism, which includes geomagnetically induced
currents caused by space weather. Moreover, it could be said
that it assesses the quality of the local environment and
the effects of space weather -- that is, feng shui is
qimancy, or qi divination. Further beliefs hold that the
heavens influence life on earth. The classical feng shui is
typically associated with various techniques like
relationship of the five phases or wuxing, wuxing
relationships, time and many more. In the end, you can say
that it is this technique through which you can lead a great
life and overcome the obstacles easily which was earlier
difficult to achieve. Hence, it has become an integral part
of one's life.
