Before giving you some important fengshui tips, I would like to tell you something about the history of Feng Shui.The history of Fengshui (Feng Shui) is a very old story. Fengshui (Feng Shui), as a practical philosophy, exists before the Chinese learn to write (Gee, that must be a long time ago). The ancient wise people used the most original and basic binary form of "Yin" and "Yang" to reason the events of the world around them. The palaces and tombs of the royal families built in Tang dynasty and all the following dynasties strictly followed the prescription of the Fengshui (Feng Shui) requirement. When the Buddhism reached China, it soon absorbed the Fengshui (Feng Shui) principles and combined in its own practices. The historical Buddhism temples, most locate at famous mountains in China, are all build with the idea of Fengshui (Feng Shui) in mind. The practice of Fengshui (FengShui) was severely undermined in China since the 20th century. With the invasion of the Europeancountries,Chinese intellectuals begin to question their heritage. Under the banner of 'learn from the west', Fengshui (Feng Shui) is regarded as a superstition by many.
Following are some of the important and useful tips of the Feng shui . I hope you would find these useful in your daily life.
If you eat too much meat, then your body, when it sweats tends to give off a bad odour. A bad body odor is not good fengshui as you create "sharchi" around you rather than "sheng chi". So eat less meat and more vegetables.
If you live on a landed property, the water found in the drains should ideally flow from the front to the back.
If you have glass partitions in your homes, cover it with wood or plastic green rounded leaves so that the glasses are not sharp and cutting into the spaces around you.
Do not keep dry flowers in your house. Dry Flowers are past prosperity and also give rise to shar chi (negative energy).
Cactus are plants which should not be placed in offices as their leaves are small and thorny and give rise to quarrels if placed on your office tables.
It is good to cleanse your office or house using sandlewood incense at least once a month. This is to clean away any shar chi (negative energy) left behind.
Do not put brief cases in between your legs.
If you loose something important like a diamond ring, do not worry or feel sad as something great will be coming on the way.
Do not place a standing fan or any object next to your wealth area where you had placed the fish tank or water fountain.
Do not have shoes, slippers outside your main door. The wind when it blows will carry the smell of shoes to the inside part of your house and this is bad fengshui.
I hope that you will enjoy these simple remedies and get benefit from these remedies.
