You Know Feng Shui - Is It Beneficial?

By: Paul zayer

Is there such a reality called energy? Is there a form of energy flowing around us? There are many studies made regarding all sorts of energies . One of those studies is called art of Feng Shui.

Ancient Oriental philosophy is an inspiration to a lot of persons and mere superstition to others. There is a lot of interest in the practice of Feng Shui, both in the East and in the West. The guidelines have an effect on every aspect of life for persons who believe in it. In the last years, the New Age movement was influenced by elements such as crystals and wind chimes.

The energy flow or lack of it is the core of the philosophy. How objects are placed in relation to each other dictates this flow and has a positive or negative force on the environment. Relationships, finance and health are affected by the quality of the energy. Following the rules and recommendations of FengShui, many people arrange the contents of their house.

Different places in the residence have different roles and they have to be treated in a different way. There should be only one door for the bedroom and the bed should not be positioned in between the door and the window as this will disturb your sleep. The bed should be made of wood and inhabitants should be facing the door and sleep at least 45cm above the floor. Pictures of wild animals or water as well as mirrors should be avoided. The windows should be draped by thik curtains and the walls should be painted in red, blue or green shades.

In the kitchen, the cooker and sink should not be adjacent as the proximity of fire and water can lead to conflict. Stoves should be positioned in the south corner, the room must have a wide doorway and microwaves are not recommended. FengShui is also applied to living rooms and dining rooms. There should be at least one wall without a window and the walls should be painted in bright colors. Mirrors to reflect food on the table, the hanging of family pictures and television sets or hi-fi systems that stand at the west wall are among the elements that bring luck.

Even the smallest room in the house, containing the toilet, has guidelines. To make sure there is no negative energy, the toilet lid and door should be kept shut. The room should always be clean and having plants and pictures in there brings bad luck. A dark stairway can bring negative energy, so keep the stairs brightly lit. Good luck will fall through open stairs and a spiral staircase will bring confusion. Entrance halls must also be brightly lit but be painted in muted shades. They must be warm and can be decorated with plants or water features. It's fun to try Feng Shui and observe its affects, if any. In my opinion the best way to learn in life is to have an open mind.
