About Feng Shui ? Discover How Feng Shui Can Benefit You

Feng Shui translated from the chinese means wind and water. It is an ancient chinese system which seeks to balance opposities in all aspects of your environment to create positive energy and improve your life. By implementing the principles of Feng Shui in your own home you can help to balance and align the positive energy in your environment with your own internal energies to bring good fortune to all aspects of your life.

Feng Shui has been practiced for several thousand years and in that time many different schools and approaches to Feng Shui have been developed. This can be very confusing to anyone who is starting to study Feng Shui as although the basic principles are the same there are key differences that mean that books and websites on the different types of Feng Shui appear to give conflicting advice.

There are no good and bad approaches to Feng Shui, just as there are no right and wrong ways to practice Feng Shui. Although each method is different the basic premise of all approaches is the same, to balance and harmonize the energies in your environment to bring about positive change in your life.

Here I have summarized for you the main approaches to Feng Shui and where they differ from each other. Some consultants and teachers will use one approach, some will use a combination of two, many will use elements of each. Personally I use a combination of? Form school, BTB Feng Shui and Compass School as?all have aspects that I feel are relevant to today?s world.?The approach that you choose to study or use in your own life should be the one that feels most relevant to you.

Feng Shui Schools

Form School Feng Shui

The original school of Feng Shui developed in China around 3000 ? 4000 years ago (because it was so long ago we can?t be more specific than this). Form School studies the shapes in the natural world around your immediate environment, the rivers, the trees, the land, and other buildings and roads to identify whether or not your home attracts a positive flow of energy. Using this as a guide it then looks at how, using symbolism you can alter your environment to strengthen the flow of chi.

Compass School Feng Shui

Compass School utilizes calculations based on the points of the compass, the I Ching and your date of birth to identify positive and negative areas in your home or immediate environment. Based on these scientific calculations you can define the best times and the best places to attract positive energy in to your home.
