What is Feng Shui?
Feng Shui is the practice of harnessing the energy (Qi) of the environment and aligning it with the body and mind. Alignment is based on the orientation and seat of your house, depending on which school of Feng Shui you are taught.
Your house can be oriented in the direction that is auspicious or inauspicious. If the house faces a natural water catchment area, such as a lake or artificial pond, it is auspicious as long as the water is clean and unpolluted. If you can find a house that has such a positive landscape, you are bound to invigorate the Qi that allows you to live in harmony with nature. Such a house brings prosperity to the occupants.
In the study of Feng Shui, the occupants of a property can take appropriate steps to benefit from the good or bad features that surround a dwelling. If you find a negative structure that puts your property in the face of bad energy, you should learn Feng Shui techniques to circumvent its negative effects or at least mitigate the dire consequences for the occupants. Bad energy can cause poor health and misfortune in terms of relationship, career, business, and wealth.
The mind and body are affected when a house faces an inauspicious direction, such as a rocky mountain, a stream, a busy highway, or the sharp edge of the neighboring house’s roof. The correct techniques to implement depend on each negative characteristic the house is exposed to. For example, if the house faces a rocky mountain, the occupants of the property should consider moving, which is the best resource. You can still take steps to avoid facing the rocky mountain by realigning the facade of the house, but it will involve a massive renovation.
What is Ba Zi?
Ba Zi is the practice of analyzing the flow of energy in your birth chart according to your elements. Each of us has 5 elements that control our natal chart which is derived from our date of birth. By having information on a person’s date and time of birth, a master of this ancient art can decipher the interaction between the 5 elements to unlock a person’s luck.
The 5 elements that make up a natal chart are wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Each of these elements has a polarity known as Yin and Yang. How these elemental energies determine the course of a person’s destiny depends on many factors. Essentially, the factors that come into play are the strength and utility of the items.
There are also the typical 12 animal signs that are the mainstay of Chinese astrology. Each animal sign carries with it different types of elements. The animal signs are aligned in a natal chart according to the pillars which are divided according to the stems and branches.
Therefore, the natal chart that is constituted according to the Ba Zi system is also known as the Four Pillars of Destiny. The pillars include the year, month, day, and hour pillar. Together, these pillars chart the length of a person’s life from birth to death.
