Unit 5: Feng Shui

Unit 5: Feng Shui


Feng Shui: It is an ancient Chinese belief that the way your house is built or the way that you arrange objects affects your success, health, wealth and happiness. In addition to this, Feng Shui can create harmony, good luck, physical and psychological comfort. Feng shui grew up of the practical experience of farmers in the south part of china over three thousand years ago.

The theory behind Feng Shui is that there are invisibles light forces and energy called “Chi” that circulates through all things like rooms, buildings, people, etc. In contrast, if these light forces are blocked, people might feel uncomfortable and boring. In classical Feng Shui water symbolized wealth and abundance.

Nowadays, feng shui is more accepted in places such a The United States, Canada, Europe and Latin America. Architects, real estate development and interior designers are using the principal of the Chinese practice of feng shui for their life and work.

From my point of view, I think that whatever person can believe in feng shui if it really works for his or her life. I recognize that things have to be really organized in order to have a more beautiful environment, but I do not think that we have to follow a theory or belief to accomplish that. There are so many superstitious people who apply their success to beliefs and not to their efforts.
