FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Truths and Misconceptions

Is Feng Shui related to any religion or any esotherical practice?

No. Feng Shui is not related to any kind of religion. All of the principles and theories of Feng Shui are derived from the I-Ching, 'the Book of Changes’, which conveys all the wisdom and universal truth. Traditional Yang Sang Feng Shui is a naturalistic ancient science that understands the patterns of the earth's magnetic energy and teaches us how to align our architecture with them in order to create the most favorable living environments.

Is Feng Shui applied to houses only?

No, Feng Shui can be applied to houses, offices, commercial buildings, public buildings, schools, health facilities, etc. It can also be applied to neighborhoods, cities, states, as well as to the entire world.

What about mirror placement?

Mirrors and shiny surfaces have the ability to reflect electromagnetic waves, such as light. However, they should be used carefully, because this reflecting capability creates 'Qi stroke' (direct and intense flow of Qi, which is not beneficial for well beings of humans). Also, mirrors cannot be used for attracting good energies and reflecting bad energies, as is commonly believed; they are not able to make the distinction between energy types.

After a Feng Shui reading, how often do you find yourself recommending that people move out of a property?

Seldom. Most of the time, the problem can be corrected with relative ease. Only in rare situations in which the conditions are so unfavorable that they represent a threat to life would the occupant be advised to leave.

If Feng Shui is so important, why have I never heard of it before?

For centuries, Feng Shui was kept secret by China’s ruling class; it was used almost exclusively by emperors. The study and the practice of Feng Shui’s was not open to the public. This was partially due to the high level of education and dedication that it required in addition to the long time that needed to be invested to practice and develop the skill. With the increasing Asian migration to the United States and Canada, mostly from Hong Kong and Taiwan, where Feng Shui is more widespread, Westerners are being exposed to and they are learning the benefits of this ancient science. The biggest increase in awareness by far has occurred in just the past 10 years.
