What is FENG SHUI?

Feng Shui (pronounced "Fung Schway") the Chinese Art of placement and the science of quantum physics, has been hailed " the Environmental Science of the 21st Century." Literally translated, Feng Shui means "Wind & Water". It is a centuries-old concept of bringing man into harmony with his surroundings.

Art...Science...Application

Intention: "To live in harmony with the elements of nature." This is the fundamental belief of Taoism. The word Tao means "The Way", which refers to the visible and invisible forces of nature and a code of right action that honors everything on Earth.

Principle: Everything in the Universe is comprised of energy. The way energy flows in, through, and around one’s environment dynamically affects one’s life and career. The Chinese call this energy "Ch’i"...the Life Force. In terms of quantum physics, everything in the universe is alive with Ch’i, connected by Ch’i, and cycles and changes with Ch’i.

History: Feng Shui has been practiced since the Tang Dynasty (618-907 A.D.) It’s founder, Master Yan Yun-Sang, was the principal advisor to the court of Emperor Hi Tsang. He sought to understand the flow of the Earth’s energy and thereby explain the behavior of the world in order to predict physical and social effects. He saw how powerful natural forces were affected by human changes in their environment and reasoned these changes would affect people as well. He began to observe, enhance and alter the flow of energy and recorded his discoveries and results, which make up the majority of the text on Feng Shui. Until recently, this literature on Feng Shui was not available in English. The art of Feng Shui is rich with symbolism and the science of Feng Shui is based on invisible energies, both of which contribute to the cultural barrier between the East and West.

Modern Day Application: Ancient Chinese practitioners used Feng Shui to select auspicious building and burial sites. Today, it is increasingly utilized by architects, city planners, landscape designers and interior decorators, real estate professionals, business executives, and homeowners. This art and science is used to balance and harmonize home and work environments, as well as, to increase the prospects for wealth, health, and improved relationships.
