In Chinese metaphysics, everything is about balance. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), it is also talking about balance. The TCM practitioner will try to identify what is excessive or lacking and he will provide something to balance, to counter the abundance or the lack of it.
We hear the famous dualism of Yin and Yang. Many people intepret it as the opposites such as hot and cold, male and female, tall and short, etc, etc. But, just how many of us really know what it really means? Is it really 'opposite'?
One of the first thing we must know is that both must exists together at the same time. If they are indeed opposite, how can they be helping each other? One cannot live without the other. It is only when they are together, that you will have balance. When it is in balance, you have peace and harmony.
If you have too much of either a Yin or a Yang, this is the beginning of trouble.
When you do Feng Shui, even before you start taking measurements, the balance of Yin and Yang of the place must be evaluated first. If they are not balanced, any measurements taken and implemented may at best be only 50% effective.
As you drive around town, try to observe why certain shops are doing well and why the others are not. Why certain stalls have brisk business only at night and hardly any customers during the day? Why some business are busy 24-hours? The answers are all there.
