feng shui systems There are a number of different Feng Shui systems that enable us to evaluate the qi within our environment. With an understanding of these systems, we can make the necessary adjustments to both minimise our exposure to any harmful or disruptive qi energies, and maximise our exposure to nourishing and supportive qi energies. Certain Feng Shui systems also enable us to assess our individual compatibility with our environments. Form School ~ provides guidelines for how to position homes and people within an environment; external landforms are referred to as the Black Tortoise, Green Dragon, White Tiger, and Red Bird; consideration is given to both external form (the positioning of the house in respect of external landforms and manmade features), and internal form (the positioning of key items of furniture in relation to walls, doors, windows and other furniture). Eight Life Stations Bagua ~ a basic Compass School method that divides the house into eight sectors aligned to compass directions, with each sector having a particular type of energy based on the eight trigrams (Ba means 8 and Gua means trigram); a modern approach assigns life stations (e.g. Relationships, Good Fortune etc) to the eight directions. Eight House/East West System ~ a traditional Compass School method that identifies four favourable and four unfavourable areas within a house (based on its sitting direction), and four favourable and four unfavourable directions for each person (based on their year of birth); compatibility with the house is assessed and the appropriate adjustments made. Flying Star Feng Shui ~ the most sophisticated of the Compass School methods providing a numeric qi map for a house based on the year it was built and its facing/sitting directions; will reveal the basic tendencies for the house; incorporates the time factor with changing qi patterns taken into account; corrections and enhancements are applied using the five elements; compatibility with the house is assessed and the appropriate adjustments made. Having looked at our homes and our individual compatibility with our homes, we can then look to systems of Feng Shui astrology to better understand our basic makeup and chart certain influences on our lives. Nine Star Ki Astrology ~ one of the oldest systems of astrology; incorporates the concepts of yin and yang, the five elements, and the eight trigrams; helps you understand both who you are, and where you are in a cycle of 9 years (each year exerting a different influence). Four Pillars of Destiny ~ an in-depth system of Chinese astrology that provides information as to your personal chemistry (identified from the five elements present for the year, month, day and hour of your birth) and your path in life as identified by a series of ‘Luck Pillars’; advice is given for how to work with your personal chemistry (using the five elements) to bring greater balance to any periods of potential disharmony. Other disciplines practised under the ‘umbrella’ of Feng Shui include: Geopathic Stress (detection and treatment) ~ created by distortions of the earth's natural energy field; can lead to a weakening of the immune system; common indications include restless sleep, fatigue in the morning, and a general feeling of being run-down; can be detected via dowsing and treated using a process called ‘earth acupuncture’. Electromagnetic Fields (surveys and advice) ~ electromagnetic fields from power lines and electrical appliances provide a modern day health hazard; detection of these fields with a professional field meter enables practical advice to be given to help you reduce your exposure to these fields.
