A quick guide to Feng Shui Feng Shui objects and accessories can greatly enhance your environment while providing cures and renewed energies (chi) that affect positive changes in your personal life. For example, certain coins, colors and animals create "prosperity and healing" Chi; crystals and mirrors create visual movement of chi; wind chimes, crystals, fountains and special kinds of music create aural chi, and trees, plants and flowers create "life and growth" Chi. For thousands of years the
Chinese have applied the philosophy of Feng Shui to create auspicious energy
flow within their surroundings. Literally translated as Wind and Water or the
harmony between nature and living beings, Feng Shui utilizes the delicate flow
of universal life energy to enhance our lives. Enhance your environment
and create harmony, abundance, and well-being for yourself and your family. Feng Shui (pronounced fong
shway) has been utilized for centuries by the Chinese to ensure that the energy
flow within and around their environment is enhanced, creating auspicious
'blessings' in life. Feng Shui has been called environmental
acupuncture simply because we are working with the energy meridians around us
and enhancing the Chi, or beneficial energy, flow within the environment. Feng Shui can improve all
aspects of our lives and is increasingly being used for both personal homes and
businesses to enhance the flow of energy. Many large businesses such
as Virgin Airways, British Airways, Microsoft, Midland Bank, Harvey Nichols,
the offices of The Wall Street Journal, The Hong Kong Bank, Shanghai Bank, and
Morgan Bank have used Feng Shui to improve their business and harmony within the
business world. The Pa Kua is one of the
easiest methods used to ascertain the Feng Shui of any given environment. The Pa
Kua is an octagonal map or grid containing the symbols of the I Ching, the
ancient oracle on which Feng Shui is based. These symbols relate to every
area or aspect of our lives and are divided into such categories as: fame, relationships/marriage,
children/creativity, helpful people/travel, career,
inner knowledge, family/ancestors/health, and wealth/blessings. The Pa Kua grid is placed
over the land, the building, rooms within a house or building and desks to show
where there are negative or missing spaces and what may need rectifying or
enhancing in life or the environment. For example, if the Pa Kua grid is
placed over the entire house plan and it shows the toilet, bathroom, laundry, or
kitchen in the wealth/blessings area it would be considered that the money
coming into that particular environment would disappear very fast, as if to be
'going down the drain.' Feng Shui offers remedies or
enhancements to rectify inauspicious situations. In the above mentioned
situation, the remedy would be to use either a round leaf plant, a hanging crystal,
a wind chime, or the colours blue or green (the wealth /blessings colours). If
the individual chooses to use a round leaf pot plant, they could also place six
or eight gold coins, wrapped in red,
underneath the plant, to symbolize the growth of their money. It is not
necessary, however, to use all these remedies together as it is up to the
individual's needs and personal aesthetics to choose what might be the most
suitable enhancement for their environment. It is important whenever using any Feng Shui remedies or enhancements, which you choose the most subtle and suitable items to fit into the individual environment, whether it is in a house or business. After all, Feng Shui is about improving all aspects and areas in our lives and environment in order to create a world that is more in balance.
