Feng Shui
Feng shui is an association of Chinese words meaning wind and water respectively. It could be translated into French by the divination of the earth. The purpose of feng shui is to control your chi which is cosmic energy. Control is exercised, in the physical body of man, but also in his daily living space. The purpose of this mastery is the establishment of a harmonious relationship between man, earth and sky. You lack such a balance if your cosmic energy is not released. The consequences will be perpetual tensions in your social and professional environment.

The Chinese have been credited with the practice of feng shui for almost 3000 years. Its advent is in ancient times. The first forms of use of this mancie were a combination of occult divinatory practices consisting of ancestor cults, various rituals and magic. The idea at the time was the certainty for the Chinese that they enjoyed the protection of their ancestors and therefore, in return, they had to offer them a funeral with tombs directed towards the chi. Thus the graves of these peoples face the South, the cardinal point that is the source of the breath of life.
