"We
shape our buildings, and
afterwards our buildings shape us".
-Winston Churchill
A truer
statement could not be said. Architects design buildings as works of
art for us to enjoy, but they have little to no training on the
actual influence those building will have on us as humans. They plan
for the size, style and function. They do not consider how the
building's invisible energy patterns will influence our
physiology.
We have
all been in buildings that made us feel good. There was something
about the place that just made us feel good. Then there have been
buildings that make us feel bad or awkward, they are unpleasant and
we can not wait to leave. They have all been designed by an
architect with a function and style in mind, however, they did not
take into consideration the hidden energy patterns that are
generated by nature.
Everything on Earth, including Earth itself is made up of atoms and
therefore, energy. Each has its own distinctive energy pattern. Some
patterns are compatible, others are supportive of one another and
still others are incompatible.
The
study of Classical Feng Shui addresses these influences and
directs us on methods to harness the positive and diminish the
undesirable.
What is
Feng Shui?
Feng Shui, pronounced “Fung Shway”
in the West, literally translates to wind and water and is a very
powerful technology that when used correctly can increase beneficial
energy in any given environment.
The true definition of Feng Shui has
been distorted in the West by many well meaning but misinformed
individuals. This, unfortunately, has caused much confusion among
those attempting to understand and practice this powerful
technology. The term Feng Shui has been referred to as a New Age
Phenomena, a New Religion, Interior Design and even Fashion. None of
these are correct. There are hundreds of books on the subject. Most
of them are no more than the authors misinformed opinion of what
Feng Shui is and how to practice it.
This
has led to the practice of several versions of Feng Shui in the
West, some being more productive than others. Classical Feng
Shui, which has been practiced continuously for 5,000
years, is the most effective.
The
Western version, sometimes referred to as Black Hat or Western Feng
Shui, requires intent and affirmations. Objects, three legged frogs,
Chinese coins on a string, and various nick-knacks are placed in
particular locations to remind you to focus, while affirmations are
chanted to confirm the intent. While affirmations and focus do work,
they require time and energy that may be in short supply. This is
also not the true practice of Feng Shui.
How Does Feng Shui
Work?
Feng
Shui is the study of how to identify environmental influences and
manipulate their impact on humans. It is similar to the study
of how to harness and manipulate radio waves for cell
phones.
Each
cell phone emits an invisible frequency (energy pattern) that occurs
naturally associated with it. These are not altered, only identified
and harnessed. Each invisible frequency is unique unto itself. It is
similar to the others but not exactly. This frequency supports their
usage. If the frequency is strong the signal is good and we can talk
on the phone. However, if the frequency is weak or another frequency
interferes with it our phone will have static or may not work at
all. Simply put, if our phones frequency is not being supported by
external influences, i.e. cell towers; or if other external
influences, i.e. incompatible cell towers are impacting them they
will not work as intended or possibly will not work at all. The same
is true of humans.
Like
cell phones, humans respond to invisible energy patterns. Like
everything in the Universe we are made up of atoms. The atoms that
make up our bodies have energy patterns. These patterns are
supported by specific frequencies and depleted or antagonized by
others. Therefore, there are naturally occurring invisible energy
patterns in our environment that influence us whether we are aware
of them or not.
The
study of Classical Feng Shui addresses these influences and
directs us on methods to harness the positive and diminish the
undesirable.
Why Feng Shui?
Your
surroundings exert a huge influence on your life. They affect your
personal health, happiness and wealth and have a direct bearing on
the opportunities that come to you. If Feng Shui is practiced correctly it
can be life changing. The proper application of Feng Shui principles
creates an environment with improved energy flow to support you and
your goals. This can lead to an overall sense of well-being, better
health, improved relationships and social life and increases in
professional success.
Why Classical Feng
Shui?
Classical Feng Shui
deals with invisible energy patterns that have a definite
impact on our health, wealth, relationships, overall well-being,
productivity and mental clarity.
Unlike "Western" Feng Shui Classical Feng Shui is a
“do it and forget it” type of Feng Shui. It does not require,
one to speak affirmations or place objects such as three legged
frogs or Chinese coins on a string. Classical Feng
Shui is based in physics, cause and
affect.
Long
before high tech equipment, in fact thousands of years ago, Ancient
Chinese scholars who began the practice of Feng Shui understood the
workings of the Universe.
Using
this knowledge they recognized certain patterns in nature and
developed methods to trace their influence on humans. They did not
know about atoms or the energy they create. However, these ancient
scientists observed cause and effect. Using that
information they identified formulae that documented the
predictability of the impact of certain invisible patterns in an
environment on humans.
These
Classical Feng Shui Masters documented these formulae and
handed them down generation to generation to worthy students who
would carry on the study. This has led us to modern day
Classical Feng Shui. Even though it has evolved to
include modern day lifestyles the basis of their formulae, as with
any law of nature, is much the same as it was 6,000 years
ago.
In the
early days of Classical Feng
Shui there was no compass. It was invented years
later. Therefore land formations and how energy traveled along
them was the initial focus. Although compass directions and
planetary influences have been added to the practice of
Classical Feng Shui land form is still the priority
today. Identifying how energy flows along and through landscapes is
paramount to the practice of Classical Feng Shui.
Mountains,
large buildings, rivers, streams, roads, parking lots and landscape
have a definite impact on the energy that enters our homes,
apartments, offices, retail space and schools.
When
the compass was invented, the influence compass directions had on
humans became a vital part of Classical Feng Shui. The
understanding of Compass directions took the practice of Classical
Feng Shui to a new level.
The
compass became an essential tool in the practice of Classical Feng
Shui. The Ancient Scholars created Lo Pans, compasses with Classical
Feng Shui formulae written on them in concentric circles around the
actual compass identifying energy patterns for each of the 360
degrees.
The
direction of certain elements in the landscape play an additional
role in the influence of invisible energy patterns. A mountain
in a specific compass direction may have a detrimental influence
for a building, home or office that faces a particular
direction, preventing beneficial energy from reaching the building.
Understanding the foundation of how this technology works can be
challenging. Many individuals have attempted to make it easy,
misleading the public with books that lead consumers to believe Feng
Shui is a do-it-yourself practice.
However, like any highly technical practice it is best to hire the
professional.
