A bit about Feng Shui

First, it is impossible to report just a bit about Feng Shui.   It is a much involved metaphysical study that scrutinizes your home, the land around it and the relationship each individual occupant has to the present time, the evolving time, the time the home has endured and also the way energy is permitted into the home. Chi is observed to see how it reacts to the shapes, colours, elements and design of each individual room and the pathways that are created or blocked between them. 

You cannot master Feng Shui at a weekend workshop or by reading a few books.

In Eastern Philosophy Feng Shui is also interpreted in conjunction with other kinds of luck that are characterized by astrological and heavenly influences.  Feng Shui is not... simply about hanging crystals, mirrors or other trinkets and it is not entirely about power and wealth.  

I’m certified in traditional feng shui.  I have also interviewed or have been affiliated with every major school of thought or practice. I have reported on the subject matter thru written magazine articles and television programming. Most importantly, I have lived through several feng shui audits myself. 

There is a huge population of believers. There exists great controversy in perceived rules and regulations. There are many disputes about how energy patterns ought to be identified, manipulated and dealt with. 

Nothing is absolute.  All is merely probable and then it changes. 

There are no perfect homes.  We are drawn to our homes for unknown reasons and like the children who become our offspring…. we have nominal choice should they be brilliant, disobedient or challenged in anyway. We can try our best,  but our only true choice is how we manage these circumstances and feng shui can be a coping strategy. 

A learned practitioner eventually understands that even negative energy patterns aid a person in their spiritual growth. Aggressive and overconfident chi can boost the timid. Sick and melancholy stars may influence the healer. Even destruction can be a blessing in disguise for without a catalyst, rebirth is not a possibility.  
Reporting on Feng Shui Philosophy

Like any other divination reading (like tarot/iching) feng shui is a re affirmation of the life you are already living. The worst thing a practitioner can say is “sell your house immediately!”   I believe your family members and home found you. You are the integral link. 

You cannot ever blame your house, the neighbours or God. You can however, make the best of the potential your house has to offer and learn to embrace the potential in a mature and appreciative manner.  Interestingly, you will find that if you own multiple buildings; businesses and vacation properties... you will note that energy combinations repeatedly present themselves. 

I would say that, the good inside you comes from the life you have already lived and is shaped by the acceptance of the energies you are given - but by all means, if you can identify and adjust those energies to bring yourself success and happiness then  - go right ahead - learn to support and modify energy.  Think of Feng Shui's chi identification the same way you would internal chakras and chi we unblock in acupuncture. 

Believing you can create abundance symbolically  - generally makes it so.  We can heal our selves and our homes but living, the healed life is truly a state of mind.  

Feng Shui is just one of many spiritual luck decoders.  It is custom in some cultures, a ritualistic exercise to follow with many and most certainly,  a very strong belief.
