Chapter 2: Feng Shui basics: the five elements and eight trigrams
Feng Shui is deeply rooted in Chinese philosophy, particularly Taoism. At the core of this ancient practice is the concept of the five elements and eight trigrams.
The five elements
The five elements – wood, fire, earth, metal, and water – represent the basic building blocks of the universe. They have different properties and interact with each other in a certain way:
Wood: growth, creativity, freshness
Fire: warmth, energy, strength
Earth: stability, reliability, support
Metal: determination, clarity, precision
Water: flexibility, adaptability, intuition These elements are in a continuous cycle of creation and destruction:
wood creates fire
fire creates earth
earth creates metal
metal creates water
water creates wood
The elements also destroy each other:
wood destroys earth
earth destroys water
water destroys fire
fire destroys metal
metal destroys wood
Eight trigrams
The eight trigrams are eight different combinations of three solid or broken lines. They represent different basic principles of nature and human existence:
(Heaven): strong, creative, powerful
Dui (Lake): joyful, sociable, open
Li (Fire): bright, passionate, inspiring
Zhen (Thunder): moving, decisive, exciting
Xun (Wind): penetrating, flexible, soft
Kan (Water): deep, intuitive, receptive
Gen (Mountain): still, stable, calm
Kun (Earth): fertile, supportive, nourishing
Trigrams also have their opposites, which create binary combinations:
Heaven and earth
Lake and thunder
Fire and wind
Water and mountain
Combination of elements and trigrams
In Feng Shui, each of the five elements is associated with two trigrams:
Wood: dui and zhen
Fire: li and kan
Earth: gen and kun
Metal: qian and xun
Water: kan and gen
These associations are used to create feng shui maps known as bagua, which divide space into eight sections, each corresponding to a specific element and trigram.
Understanding the relationships between the five elements and the eight trigrams is the foundation for creating harmonious and auspicious spaces using feng shui.
Chapter 3: Chi: The life force of your home
In feng shui, chi is the central energy. It is the life force that permeates all living things, including our homes. Chi is constantly moving and flowing, and its quality and flow in our living spaces has a profound impact on our well-being.
Signs of bad qi
Stagnant air
Dark, cluttered spaces
Wilting plants
Faulty appliances
Sharp corners and edges
Lack of natural light
Signs of good qi
Fresh, flowing air
Bright, spacious spaces
Healthy new, thriving plants
Well-functioning appliances
Smooth edges and curved lines
Abundant natural light
How to improve the flow of chi in your home
Ventilate regularly:
Open windows and doors to ventilate the room and allow fresh air to flow.
Remove clutter, dust, and stagnant energy by cleaning regularly.
Arrange furniture so that chi can flow freely:
Avoid blocking passageways and leave space for movement.
Use mirrors to reflect and enhance chi:
Strategically placed mirrors can create the illusion of space and direct chi along the desired path.
Add water to enliven chi:
The babbling water of fountains or aquariums can stimulate the movement of chi and create a favorable atmosphere.
Use plants to cleanse and revitalize chi:
Live plants absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, purifying and revitalizing the air.
Create a harmonious color scheme:
Different colors affect chi differently. Choose colors that are calming, energizing, or create the atmosphere you want.
Add crystals or other natural elements:
Crystals and other natural elements, such as stones and wood, can help balance chi and create a more natural space.
When chi flows freely and smoothly throughout the home, we experience a sense of well-being, vitality, and harmony. By improving the flow of chi in our living space, we not only improve its appearance, but also create an environment that nourishes our physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
Chapter 4 – Bagua: mapping the energy zones of your home
The Bagua is an octagonal diagram used in Feng Shui to divide a space into eight main energy zones. Each zone is associated with a specific aspect of life, such as wealth, health, relationships, or career.
Using the bagua, you can determine how the energy flows in your home and make adjustments to improve your life in specific areas.
How to place a bagua on your home
To place a bagua on your home, you will need a compass or a compass app on your phone. Stand in the center of your home and orient the compass to the north.
Then align the north edge of the bagua with the north wall of your home. The other sides of the bagua will automatically fall into place.
The eight energy zones of the Bagua and their corresponding aspects of life are:
North: career
Northeast: wisdom and self-development
East: health and family
Southeast: wealth and prosperity
South: fame and reputation
Southwest: love and relationships
West: children and creativity
Northwest: travel and helpful people
How to use bagua to improve the Feng Shui of your home
Once you have identified the energy zones in your home using the Bagua, you can make adjustments to improve the flow of energy in specific areas. Here are some tips:
