Feng Shui Is Not Just About Removing The Clutter Or Moving Furniture Around

Feng Shui (pronounced fung schway) is the ancient Eastern art and science of living in harmony with your environment to produce tangible results naturally.

Many believe that there is an energetic current to the flow of life, and when we live in harmony with this Way, we experience success and happiness. But when go against this innate flow, we start to have disturbances in our lives.


Living in harmony with your space does not mean removing the clutter or placing things in their proper or "right" place, it means aligning your inner worlds and desires with your outer environment.

Feng Shui involves the intuitive, aesthetic adjustment of visible and invisible objects or factors, realigning all dimensions of the environment into a balanced, harmonious state.

This allows you to begin to see and understand the direct relationship between what is happening in the energy of your space and what is going on currently in your life.

Feng Shui Secret #1 - Understanding What Your Space Means

The Ba Gua, an arrangement of eight trigrams and a center, serves as a map to match various components of your life with the corresponding areas in your physical world. This can be placed over the shape of a lot, the floor plan of a house or an individual room.

The main entry point is always located at the bottom of the ba gau. So you would overlay the ba gau over a room or floor plan and see that the door would either be in the knowledge and wisdom section, career section, or travel and helpful people section.

And the back left hand side of a room is always the wealth and prosperity area when standing in the doorway looking into a room. This also means that the back right area of a room is the area associated with love and relationships.

Use the diagram below to evaluate the rooms in your home. What do you have in your wealth areas? What objects do you have placed in your love and relationship areas of your bedroom?

What Is This Feng Shui North, South, East & West All About?

One of the most frequently asked questions/topics that I receive daily has to do with the compass direction of a person's home, bedroom, etc.

This is a big frustration for many, especially if you don't realize that there a variety of different schools of Feng Shui and different levels of understanding. As many start to purchase books and realize that each book is telling them something completley different.

All schools of Feng Shui are based on similar universal knowledge, but have developed different approaches and techniques for identifying and balancing chi.

The two oldest traditional schools are the Form School and the Compass School.

And According to His Holiness Professor Lin Yun Rinpoche (one of the foremost experts in Feng Shui), he considers the most prominent contemporary schools to be Three harmony, Three Era, Nine Stars, Southern school, Taoist schools, Ecclectical School, Yin Yan Schools, and Buddhist Schools.

This is important to know when selecting books or reading articles on Feng Shui as many people get confused because they pick up two different books on Feng Shui based on two different schools of thought and become even more frustrated.

Black Sect Feng Shui

I personally study and practice Black Sect Feng Shui. Of the Buddhist Schools, Black Sect Feng Shui contains traditional Feng Shui knowledge, mixed with the Intangible dimension concerns, having to do with what we can't see, and emphasizes the Three Secret Reinforcements.

Do I Have To Convert?

No, you don't have to convert or need to be a Buddhist to study or practice Black Sect Feng Shui, or for that matter be of any particular faith to apply the principles of this school of Feng Shui. And it can be a great compliment to an existing faith.

What Distinguishes The Black Sect Feng Shui Approach From Traditional Feng Shui?

One important difference is that most traditional schools use the compass and the absolute or cardinal directions as a way of interpreting a given place in terms of wider universal factors. The Black Sect means of doing this involves understanding the site, not in terms of the fixed directions or compass positions, but in terms of the relative direction from which the Chi enters and on the site's unique qualities.

A second difference between the Black Sect and traditional approaches is that traditional approaches emphasize tangible, objective factors, like the placement of a door or window, in appraising a location. The Black Sect also uses such considerations but tends to give a greater emphasis than some other traditions to subjective, intangible forces, derived from one's intuition, while recognizing the great importance of what is seen. Instead of emphasizing the visible and physical primarily, the Black Sect also emphasizes the power of Body, Speech, and Mind through the Three Secret Reinforcements.

In ancient times, BTB Feng Shui assimilated Buddhist teachings from India with the preexisting practices of the Bon lineage in Tibet. As this hybrid developed, it moved into China and further mixed with various cultural influences, including Chinese Feng Shui, Taoism, Confucianism, ancient healing methods, and astrology.

Though Feng Shui has been practiced in various forms throughout the world, it became particularly strong in China, where the BTB practices were integrated to become a cohesive discipline.

Keep in mind that no path has more value than any other; they all simply employ different means to the end.
