The art of feng shui

[Aditi77_k]

In Chinese astrology, the art of feng shui is been practiced since long and the belief associated with it is that it is supposed to bring good luck to those practicing it. Two elements, air and water, are the basis of this ancient practice. It is believed that the positive and negative energies, yin and yang, can either wreak havoc or can bring happiness only if the flow of energy is directed in the desired manner.

And the feng shui experts use different techniques, objects, and tools to harness the positive life force, which is so very essential for the well being of the universe in general.

These days, keeping feng shui objects in our houses to bring in good luck and prosperity is the current trend. People from different walks of life decorate their homes with bamboo shoots, wind chimes, crystal tree, dragons, running water or small fountain or aquarium. These things have different positive effects on the positive and negative energies of the house and therefore are a harbinger of hope, luck, money, and happiness. There is also a related belief that keeping pets in the house also leads to increase in the well being of the family members and helps in reducing stress.

I myself believe in this ancient practice for it brings good luck, health and happiness for the family. What is your gutfeel about feng shui?
