What Do You Know About FengShui - Is It An Art?

By: Paul zayer

Are you a believer in energy? Is there a state of energy flowing everywhere? There are quite a few studies made about all sorts of energies . One of those studies is called art of Feng Shui.

Ancient Oriental philosophy is an inspiration to a lot of individuals and mere superstition to others. Both East and West practice Feng Shui with a lot of interest these days. The guiding principles affect each aspect of life for those who believe in it. Recently, the New Age society was influenced by elements such as crystals and wind chimes.

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

Different places in the home have different requirements and they have to be treated in a different way. There should be only one door for the bedroom and the bed must 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 sleep at least 45cm above the floor and be facing the door. Mirrors and pictures of wild animals or water should be avoided. The windows should be draped by thik curtains and the walls should be painted in blue, red or green shades.

The stove and sink should not be adjacent in the kitchen as the proximity of water and fire can be conflictual. Stoves should be placed in the south corner, the room must have a large entry and microwaves are not suggested. FengShui is also applied to dining rooms and living rooms. There must be at least one wall without a window and the paintwork must be 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 powder room has guidelines. To keep out negative energy, the door and toilet lid must be kept closed. The room must always be clean and it's bad luck to have plants or pictures. A dark stairway can bring negative energy, so keep the stairs brightly lit. Good fortune will fall through open stairs and confusion will be brought by a spiral staircase. Entrance halls should also be brightly lit but be painted in soft colors. They should be warm and can be decorated with water features or plants. It's fun to try Feng Shui and see its affects, if any. I truly believe the best way to grow in life is to be open minded.
