1. What is Feng Shui
In the 1880s, Feng Shui was not well-known. Now, due to widespread media coverage and the publication of numerous related books, most people are familiar with Feng Shui in relation to homes and the surrounding environment. In Chinese, the literal meaning of "Feng Shui" is simple—it means wind and water. This gives people a hint that Feng Shui is connected to natural elements. Everyone knows that wind and water are both flowing, so flow is also one of the meanings of Feng Shui. Finally, air and water are vital substances for human life. When putting the above explanation of "Feng Shui" together, Feng Shui refers to the energy behind life. It not only refers to the life of humans, plants, and animals but also to the life of the earth beneath our feet. Energy or Qi exists behind our daily living environment and in our interactions with others.
What is Feng Shui
Feng Shui has no direct connection to spiritual development or religious tendencies, just as geography and spirituality are unrelated. Ironically, in Chinese, "geography" can mean both geography and Feng Shui. Feng Shui is a technique for mastering Qi, which the Chinese first used to pursue happy marriages, bright futures, eternal prosperity, thriving descendants, high status, success in exams, and good health. Perhaps we have some friends around us who live in spacious homes, have fulfilling jobs, and achieve success effortlessly, as if the sky dropped a piece of cake on them. But there are also other friends who live in dim environments, with crowded homes, constantly struggling for survival, and every step forward requires two steps backward—fate is harsh. We can’t help but envy the former friends while sympathizing with the latter.
Which comes first—fate or reality? For some friends, their fate is destined to live in big houses, or is it the bright and favorable environment that gives them the chance to seize opportunities and achieve further success? According to Feng Shui theory, when the environment is suitable, opportunities will follow. Feng Shui is both an art and a science—it helps energy support a person’s pursuits, opportunities, and bring good luck. P12-13
