Feng shui is a long-established Chinese practice of energy constellation that not merely deals with object situation, but also particular positioning of roles played in the family linage.
That’s why there is the Yin Feng Shui that deals with the positioning of the ancestral ‘homestead’, and the Yang Feng Shui that deals with those who are alive.

The significance of the Yin Feng Shui has been so heavily stressed upon all along Chinese history that it has become the most important thing in one’s being when one, or the elderly, is about to ‘graduate’ from this material plane of being.

Often, many an elder would commence searching for the most ‘ideal’ position for their Yin Feng Shui homestead long before their anticipated date of ‘graduation’.

They would go to such extent as to engage the most experienced Feng Shui specialist to be of assistance with ‘tracing the dragon’ in their effort to pinpoint such an ideal site.

‘Tracing the dragon’ is a good ole maxim that refers to ‘in search of the essential source of energy by hiking.’

As far as the Yang Feng Shui is concerned, its core focus is upon health and fortune.

Its tools are the countless variations resultant from the interaction of the Yin and Yang, such as high and low, far and near, black and white, light and dark…

It is the game of relativity as interpreted in the day by day life, if stated more directly. It means a whole lot more than merely ‘Feng is wind‘ and ‘Shui is water‘.

Since Feng Shui has become a exceptionally trendy niche lately and there have been lots of websites on this subject, more in-depth classification will be necessary in order to facilitate better appreciation.

The basic meaning of Feng Shui is seen in its name – the 2 words Feng and Shui, which mean ‘Wind and Water’ correspondingly.

It is their interaction that is significant. The central definitions of Feng Shui are:

“When wind meets water, it will bring to a halt its path of travel and stay around there.”

“Wind carries ‘chi’ with it everywhere it goes.”

Also by the way, ‘chi’ is the crucial power that is so ‘life-giving’ and nourishing that one and all just cannot retain enough of it nowadays. For that reason, it is incredibly simple to recognize why numerous homes and communities are built in the vicinity of those areas everywhere ‘wind meets water’.

Good examples will be those waterfront real estate that is forever in very good and competitive price range as they are permanently in demand. Yes, of course it is partly because of the nice sea views and easy access to water.

Although on the energetic level, it is for the most part because people are more easily drawn to places where there is abundant amount of ‘chi’ or good and nourishing energy. More examples can be found in houses built in geographical environment where wind and water happen together harmoniously in mountain areas as well.
