Feng shui (traditional Chinese: 風水; simplified Chinese: 风水; pinyin: fēng shuǐ; pronounced /ˈfəŋˌʃueɪ/ foong-shoy in Chinese Mandarin, "fheng-schway" in American English) is an ancient Chinese system of aesthetics believed to utilize the Laws of both heaven (astronomy) and Earth (geography) to help one improve life by receiving positive Qi. The original designation for the discipline is Kan Yu (traditional Chinese: 堪輿; simplified Chinese: 堪舆; pinyin: kānyú; literally: Tao of heaven and earth).

The words feng shui literally translate as "wind-water" in English. This is a cultural shorthand taken from the following passage of the Zhangshu (Book of Burial) by Guo Pu of the Jin Dynasty:

Qi rides the wind and scatters, but is retained when encountering water.

Traditional Feng Shui practice always requires an extremely accurate Chinese compass, or Luo Pan, in order to determine the directions in finding any auspicious sector in a desired location.

Feng Shui Start Your Life Anew

Start fresh. Start anew. A new broom sweeps clean. So is with Feng Shui. Start fresh with Feng Shui.

It can be simply said that Feng Shui is all about energy itself and the focus of energy. Einstein said e equals mc squared. Feng Shui is not only about energy itself. Feng Shui and its concepts encompass the flow of vital energy, deficiencies and the lack of vital energies, the harmony and harmonization of the flow of energy as well as the cultivation of the power. Yet it can be said that it all comes down to proper balance.

When your life is standing still , or worse "stagnant" , you can bet that if you sit down and ponder the mysteries of it all - it is no or little mystery what so ever. You are what you are and you are not what you are not. Its all about cause and effects.

Yet the corollary of this stagnation or just standing still is that if you do something, if you change for the better so your life and the lives of those around you will also change for the more positive.

What are the basic steps to get out of the doldrums? It may well take concerted effort and efforts. Its all about momentum and consistency. Its not that you do it once or twice. It's that new habits come into play, those involving the power, channeling and harmonization of the powers of Feng Shui. Its not about one task, or one effort or push in the better or more correct direction or directions. It's about consistency. Doing these events on a regular and ongoing, daily basis.

True you may have baggage from the past that is impeding your recovery and growth. It can be said that everyone has their package from their past.

The point is that the past can well weigh you down and restrain your eventual growth. It's a drag. Yet by working forwards with a good attitude you can pick yourself up. Let the powers take hold. It's all cumulative or even synergistic. It often said that when the going gets tough the tough gets going. Yet what matters is the start. Once the ball starts rolling, it will gain speed, more and more speed and just race down the hill. That golf or bowling ball will gain more and more speed and momentum , just racing down the mountain of life - of your past life's and problems - ever gaining more speed and momentum along the way. What used to matter so much, will hardly count for much at all.

Start small. Let it grow and continue to grow. Like begets like.

If there can be said to be any number of concepts of Feng Shui that invoke passion and focus your path towards the more positive directions in your life they are:

Firstly do things symbolically, start every day new as if it is a brand new life, pick one certain corner of your home, cottage or office and begin new to refresh that one specific planned area or corner.

Lastly make it a sure point to welcome each and every opportunity as they come your way into your home and into your heart.

Feng Shui.
