On Feng Shui

This post is not a Feng Shui how to guide, although I may do one in the future. Instead I will just ramble a little about what I think about Feng Shui and how I believe it simply works.

One does not have to “believe” in Feng Shui. It is not a religion. All one needs to do is apply the principals and live life as before. Allowing chi (the natural energy of the universe, again you don’t need to believe any thing about chi, its not a deity, its simply energy which does not require worship to act in your favor) to energize your home or your body in a beneficial way, will positively affect the major areas of your life.

By moving your stuff and placing various objects and colors in a manner that enhances the attraction and flow of beneficial chi, while controlling or negating negative chi, will benefit the various aspects of your life.

It seems as though the physicists or on the verge of identifying the sub atomic particles that may be chi. Perhaps they have already been identified. Quarks anitquarks, and leptons could be chi, or perhaps there are yet to be identified, energy particles a step or two smaller than quarks and leptons that are chi.

“Quarks are the building blocks of protons, and neutrons, but not electrons. There are six kinds of quarks. There names are: up, down, strange, charm, bottom, and top. They are in order from lightest to heaviest in weight. All quarks have antiquarks. They are opposites of quarks. Quarks have positive charges, while antiquarks have negative charges. There is also another type of matter that makes up atoms. They are called leptons. Leptons are similar to quarks. Although some leptons are larger than quarks, and some are smaller. The most well known lepton is the electron. The other types of leptons are tau, muon, and neutrinos. Tau and muon leptons have some electrical charge, and are heavier than electrons. Neutrinos have very little charge, and very little mass. They are very difficult to find. Neutrinos are so stable, that when they pass through the atmosphere, they don't react with anything.”

The universe is entirely composed of atoms, which are in turn composed of smaller particles which we may find are also composed of even smaller particles. When we get down to it the universe is entirely composed of sub atomic energy particles – chi.

The ancient practitioners of Feng Shui, somehow, knew this and developed an understanding through trial and error of how to channel the energy that is not trapped in an object (chi) to their benefit. – Feng Shui.

Practicing Feng Shui in our previous home in New York and our home in Florida,
has resulted in beneficial transformation, for the better, especially in the areas where we concentrated on improvement.
