Feng shui is often <strong>identified<\/strong> as a form of geomancy, divination by geographic features, but it is mainly concerned with understanding the relationships between nature and ourselves so that we might live in <strong>harmony<\/strong> within our environment.<\/p>\n<p>  \tFeng shui is related to the very <strong>sensible<\/strong> notion that living with rather than against nature benefits both humans and our environment. It is also related to the equally sensible notion that our lives are <strong>deeply<\/strong> affected by our physical and emotional environs. If we surround ourselves with symbols of death, contempt and indifference toward life and nature, with noise and various forms of ugliness, we will corrupt ourselves in the process. If we surround ourselves with beauty, gentleness, kindness, sympathy, music and various expressions of the sweetness of life, we <strong>ennoble<\/strong> ourselves as well as our environment.<\/p>\n<p>  \tAlleged masters of feng shui, those who understand the five elements and the two energies <strong>such as <\/strong>chi and sha (hard energy, the opposite of chi), are supposed to be able to detect metaphysical energies and give directions for their optimal flow. Feng shui has become a kind of architectural acupuncture: wizards and magi insert themselves into buildings or <strong>landscapes<\/strong> and use their metaphysical sensors to detect the flow of good and bad &quot;energy.&quot; These masters for hire declare where bathrooms should go, which way doorways should face, where mirrors should hang, which room needs green plants and which one needs red flowers, which direction the head of the bed should face, etc. They decide these things on the basis of their feel for the flow of chi, electromagnetic fields or whatever other form of energy the client will worry about. (If you and your lover are having trouble in the bedroom, call a feng shui master. You probably need to move a few things <strong>around<\/strong> to get the bedroom chi flowing properly. Only a person with special metaphysical sensors, however, can tell what really needs to be done.)<\/p>\n<p>  \t<strong>Words:<br \/>  \t<\/strong>\u54f2\u5b66<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u54f2\u5b66\");<\/script>zh&eacute;xu&eacute; : philosophy<br \/>  \t\u786e\u8ba4<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u786e\u8ba4\");<\/script>\u4e3aqu&egrave;r&egrave;n w&eacute;i : identify<br \/>  \t\u548c\u8c10<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u548c\u8c10\");<\/script>h&eacute;xi&eacute; : harmony<br \/>  \t\u5408\u4e4e\u60c5\u7406\u7684<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u5408\u4e4e\u60c5\u7406\u7684\");<\/script>h&eacute; h\u016b q&iacute;n\u0261l\u01d0 de : sensible<br \/>  \t\u6df1\u523b\u5730<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u6df1\u523b\u5730\");<\/script>sh\u0113nk&egrave; de : deeply<br \/>  \t\u4f7f&#8230;\u9ad8\u8d35<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u4f7f...\u9ad8\u8d35\");<\/script>sh\u01d0&#8230;\u0261\u0101o\u0261u&igrave; : ennoble<br \/>  \t\u4f8b\u5982<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u4f8b\u5982\");<\/script>l&igrave;r&uacute; : such as<br \/>  \t\u5730\u5f62<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u5730\u5f62\");<\/script>d&igrave;x&iacute;n\u0261 : Landscape<br \/>  \t\u56f4\u7ed5<script language=\"Javascript\">GetWord(\"\u56f4\u7ed5\");<\/script>w&eacute;ir\u01ceo&nbsp;: around<\/p>\n<div class=\"chine-tie-zi-nei-rong-zhi-hou\" id=\"chine-4153420505\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1889418300638825\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1889418300638825\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"7273022922\" \ndata-ad-layout-key=\"-gw-3+1f-3d+2z\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Feng Shui (meaning literally &quot;wind water&quot;) is part of an ancient Chinese philosophy of nature.
