What is Feng Shui really all about?

There is a real-life story that we learned of how a Great-Grand-Master goes about helping the poor using his Feng Shui knowledge a long time ago. Imagine the poor and their living conditions at those times. How could they afford to buy crystals, gold and other Feng Shui amulets? Putting a roof over their heads was already a difficult task. How did the Great-GrandMaster managed to do Feng Shui for them without having to recommend Feng Shui objects?


The real Feng Shui is about tapping on the unseen energy or the earth Qi coming from the external environment. It is about synchronizing the Qi flow from our surroundings into our homes or offices. Objects do not generate Qi. The piece of land where we build our houses and buildings gives birth to the Qi that we sought after.

Our job as Feng Shui Consultant is to make the Qi flow connection from the outside into the property. We achieve that by ensuring the property itself is “comfortable”. If it is comfortable, you will be comfortable too.

Allow me to give an analogy. Imagine that you are sitting down to have your dinner. Firstly, you want to make sure that you are sitting comfortably on a comfortable chair with the food in front of you. Each intake of food goes through a digestive process and sends nutrients to all parts of the body to function efficiently.

A property constructed on a piece of land is similar. The property must be comfortable with its surrounding and its location. When it is in sync with the land, it is able to receive positive energy. When positive flow of energy is distributed within the building, every occupant will enjoy the goodness that it receives.

There are some schools that implement Feng Shui to benefit only the breadwinner. On this day and age, this idea is considered obsolete. Today, we have couples working and each one has their own career and source of income. Even children needs all the help they can get to help them in their studies. Feng Shui must benefit everyone.

The application of traditional Feng Shui principles are always very consistent. This is to say that it can be applied yesterday, today and tomorrow, anywhere, anytime, using the same methods, and the results are always consistent.

We always tell people that a truly great Feng Shui practitioner will never leave a trace of Feng Shui scent in any property that is designed with Feng Shui principles. The occupants will enjoy the benefits of Feng Shui and yet, the uninformed will never know the property has been audited before. This is the real art of Feng Shui.

Many people misunderstands the actual usage of Feng Shui. As in the case of the Great-GrandMaster helping the poor. Did he make the poor become super rich? No, he just made their life more bearable, improve their well-being and comfort of life, all within their means and way of life. Each one of us are born with different gifts, different life with varying degrees of capacity and intensity.

Feng Shui is also not about hitting the jackpot or becoming rich overnight. The proper usage of Feng Shui is to create more opportunities that seemed very hard to come by. We use Feng Shui to improve our chances and our present luck cycle. We use it to attract the positive energies to help us in our endeavors. When things are going well, our way of life goes up a few notches. This is how we use Feng Shui.
