TIPS ON FENG SHUI AS OPPOSED TO CONCEPTS OF FENG SHUI

The authors of articles published on websites will often compose top 10 lists and tip sheets in order to provide their audience with some fundamental information. When it comes to feng shui, many of the general “advice” just do not apply to everyone and are so basic that they do not express anything distinctive about this mystical practice. However, I have published my fair share of “tips” articles as well. When presented with generic top ten lists, I am often relegated to giving common sense suggestions, which do not in any way reflect how exceptional and powerful a genuine audit can be. The following are some instances of advice that are considered to be of a general and common sense nature: 1. Keep your home free of clutter by maintaining a neat and ordered environment. 2. Stay away from areas that are always dim and make use of artificial light in places where there is insufficient natural light. 3. Try to avoid living on a street that has a lot of foot and vehicle traffic. 4. When you sleep, rest your head against a strong wall and avoid sleeping near windows that are low to the ground. 5. When sleeping, try to avoid positioning your body so that it is exactly aligned with a door. 6. Avoid sleeping directly beneath any beams that are exposed. 7. If the rear door and the front door are lined exactly with one another, you should not acquire that property. Some of the seven general pointers that were presented earlier have to do with an idea that is referred to as qi flow. Qi flow is a broad concept that examines the when, where, how, and why of energy movement and air currents. This is a very important area of study. Other pieces of advice may be gleaned from a comprehension of the yin-yang theory, which examines the apparent polarity of extremes or comparable settings, such as the contrast between cold and heat or between darkness and light. Additionally, several of these pointers are illustrations of yin-yang philosophy as well as qi flow. I find that the parts of this predictive art that are not immediately clear and that need intensive research and computations are the parts that I like the most. Because of this, I often characterize a home based on the time period in which it was constructed in addition to the orientation of its magnetic compass. This is the core concept of feng shui, which may be seen as a space-time theory. For instance, if a home was constructed in the 1950s and faces the northeast, it is presently in a phase (which will last until 2024) that poses a threat to the residents’ ability to be financially successful. Over the course of my career, I have penned a great number of articles that provide an overview of key ideas. My goal in doing so has been to provide the reader with a more comprehensive understanding of the topic at hand, in the belief that this will enable the reader to more effectively utilize the “tips” that follow. For instance, if you have an understanding of the wider principles for what defines good or poor feng shui, you will find that it is the accumulating impacts in either category that may really emerge as a positive or negative experience in the same property. My collection of writings for the internet concentrates on ideas for a number of reasons, one of which being that there is a great deal of inaccurate information—dare I say “disinformation”?—that has to be refuted, and the only way to do so is by providing sound theory. In the event that this does not occur, the debates that take place online run the risk of infuriating readers with an onslaught of conflicting advice, leaving them unsure of who to trust. We also need to be aware of advice that are not at all general, but rather are so particular that they have the potential to make others feel uncomfortable. If you hear that sleeping in a specific direction would draw theft or accidents to you depending on your birth year, this is obviously an exaggeration and not likely to happen, unless other undermining elements are also engaged in the situation. Those who are not already familiar with chinese metaphysics in particular or metaphysics in general will find that many of the concepts that form the foundation of feng shui principles and applications are foreign to them. Feng shui is a practice that aims to improve one’s life by bringing harmony and balance into one’s environment. When removed from their original setting, many topics might seem peculiar, dogmatic, superstitious, or at the very least, subjective. Also, the concepts of “balance” and “harmony” are seldom broken down into their component parts in sufficient detail in the majority of the articles. These phrases are more like those used in the new age, and although they may seem wonderful, they may be rather deceiving. It is a fundamental tenet of Chinese philosophy that there is no such thing as a stable, unchanging reality that can be referred to as “balance.” Everything is going through a period of upheaval right now. It is a given that people lead busy lives, and it is possible that they look for broad suggestions about feng shui since they have little interest in studying a difficult topic in detail themselves. This is a presumption that is based on the assumption that people have busy lives. This is something that I enjoy from your end as well, since I see the internet as a beautiful cyber-library where I can learn just enough about a subject to have a general idea of what it is that I am interested in learning more about. The issue with the information that we get on the world wide web is that a lot of it is mislabeled as non-fiction. And how many times have you gone to the doctor, just to have them roll their eyes when you tell them that you already diagnosed yourself using the information you found on the internet? I have high hopes that the purpose of this essay, which is to pique your interest in the ideas that underpin feng shui, will prove to be the most helpful piece of advice. kartar diamond has been a practitioner with a classically-trained background since 1992.
