Interior Feng Shui – Everything starts from the main door
In Feng Shui what we want to achieve is to manage the Qi in our residential or office property that is responsible for promoting either harmonious or disturbing effect to the occupants inside it. In our era we tend to be more unforgiving when there is no scientific prove to substantiate such saying, after all everyone knows Feng Shui is there but no one ever could prove it.
To prove Feng Shui existence is like taking a piano apart to find music in it. Another example just like a Chinese acupuncturist placing a needle at various meridian points of your body to ensure smooth flowing of the Qi in your body to relieve a pain in your body. You know it is there when you are relieved of your pain in the body.
To sum up, in Feng Shui we want to attain harmonious effect through Qi management. Once the Qi is properly managed you will enjoy the harmonious effect in the property you are staying in it. To do that you will need to focus in the following areas:
- Main Door (Qi intake outlet)
- Living Room (Think of it as Qi distribution centre)
- Kitchen (To prevents the good Qi that gets inside there)
- Bedroom (Bed placement/arrangement)
As the title suggest, Feng Shui starts from our main door because it is the main source of Qi intake outlet to our residential property, obstructing the Qi outlet from our main door and it will result the occupants are unable to enjoy good Qi effects.
In the upcoming articles we will identify with some of the main door commonly face problems, how to identify them and of course some easy and practical remedies to help alleviate the issues. However before we dive in, let us understand the basic first before we move on. Firstly we need to understand the movement of Qi before we can understand why it would cause us issues and how the remedy can help improve the Qi movement.
First let us see the below diagram:
This is a simple Taiji logo that contains profound theories and knowledge in it. Some may mistaken it as a religious symbol however let me assure you there is nothing mystical in this logo but rather profound knowledge of the universe is inside this logo.
Notice that the white colour portion moves from left to right? Does this like aerodynamics to you as well?
Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerodynamics
Movement of Qi is real, and it Taiji logo is there to depict the movement of Qi in the environment we live in as well. So once you understand the movement, next time you would not want your main door to clear out of the way so that if will not affect the movement of Qi into your house.
In the next coming article we identify some of the common issues main doors before we move on to other aspects inside the house.
