How does the system work Feng Shui?

Some of you must be wondering how sich how Feng Shui? And I'm sure some of you still think that Feng Shui is something that is superstition or mysticism! If indeed you are experiencing now then now is the best time for me to explain the system work Feng Shui! And I'm sure some of Feng Shui practitioners and specialists I have ever met not many of those who know how to Feng Shui it can work. Indeed, such an explanation can not I point out one or two words, but at least your journey in learning (Xue Li), understand (Ming Li), and practice (Li Yong) Feng Shui rules and conventions to be something that the make-sense again!

I often use the word: Xue Li, Ming Li, and Yong Li which says: Li in Mandarin can be translated as a rule, regulation, or the nature of the universe. Why? In ancient Chinese natural science emphasized that when we want to study the nature of this semsesta then we must first understand the meaning of the word Zi Ran (naturally). Zi Ran So what is it? When we are hungry, then automatically we will eat, that Zi Ran. When we are in the office during business hours then we have to wear office clothes or proper clothing for work it also Zi Ran. When we hurt the vitality of our body is weak it is also one of Zi Ran. The sun rises from the east and sets in the west was still Zi Ran too! Indonesia recognize two seasons, which is roughly the month from April to September is summer and October to March is the rainy season ...... Zi Ran. Then you think of the picture I have described what Zi Ran?



As what I have described in the article: A brief history of Feng Shui we know that before the word Feng Shui was introduced first time by Guo Pu of this science was formerly known as Kan Yu. Yu Kan literally be interpreted as a man who lives according to the nature of the universe. Nature of the universe is that I often refer to Li and not separated from the definition of Zi Ran. More than 2000 years ago in ancient China the country people have to know that they do not live alone on earth, that does not mean that they find alien or UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) ... er :-)! But they knew that their lives can not be separated from the energy of the universe both visible and invisible! This energy is more familiar with the term Qi (pronounced Chi)! Qi has been there before written human history in which the biological with the existence of Qi is then our solar system formed. Well here's Qi emerging from two opposite energies that one is Yang Qi (positive) and the other is Yin Qi (negative), as well as the theory of protons and electrons that we know when we were still in grade school Physics / Chemistry.

For the ancient Chinese society at that time, Yin Qi and Yang Qi is what causes their lives are not on a constant path. That is, there are times when they are healthy there are times when they are sick. Today they are happy either when they will experience sadness. There are also youth of old age. This not only applies to the circumstances faced by man or creature organism, but also of our universe, is the evidence? There is a day no night, no change of seasons, all also experienced the same thing. Well this is where humans 'smart' when it tries to researching our universe is to open a screen that is still unopened, what happens formulation of these changes! Then what is their motive for doing this research? Basically, it's time people also think like us who have been modern: They're afraid of pain! They are afraid of hard! They want to find a factor 'X-files' in order to make the quantity and quality of their lives better, at least have reduced something bitter.

So what makes all the events we experience in life is always changing? All of this is the result of energy interaction of Yin and Yang when they met. When the energy of Yin and Yang energy is created to meet the new changes, which we often refer to the Tai Ji. So in other words, Tai Ji is a change that has a central point, can we let our earth that has a shaft on its axis but the rotation moves the scale, which means that if now in Jakarta show at 04:58 then at Los Angeles show at 13: 58 and is not possible in a different space between Jakarta and Los Angeles but have equal time! Likewise, the ancient science of Feng Shui experts we have to understand if there is a difference then surely there is a difference space of time, and if there is a difference when there are definite differences in space. Space and time is what we call the Xuan Kong.

In Mandarin Xuan Kong meaning of the word can be translated as a unique vacuum. Why? Because the definition of the meaning of words has broken the Xuan Kong is more scientific in the modern sense. As we all know that everything has a center point which we call the Tai Ji as well as the Earth or other planets all move around the sun as the center of circulation. So why did Time and Space that we term the Xuan Kong is meant by the word void. Initially in the history of Chinese culture and philosophy of science at that time has grown quite rapidly as in ancient Greece, such as Socrates and Aristotle which men at that time to understand that life is impermanent and everything must change. No still means empty, why? Since we can not sustain the definition! If the present day then can you say it 12 hours later? If your son is 8 years old now you call it is childhood if you can still say that when they were aged 35 years?

Since none of which remain in this world, the ancient Feng Shui experts refer to this phenomenon as Yun or literally means the cycle. This cycle occurs in Zi Ran (naturally) and move to follow Li (nature's) in a Xuan Kong (Time and Space) which has the object of Tai Ji (the center). Like the sun that warms our world occur naturally (Zi Ran) and rises from the east sets in the west according to the nature of nature (Li) on March 22, 2008 at 13:15 in the western part of Indonesia (Xuan Kong) when you're busy working in the office (Tai Ji). Pahamkah metamorfora me this? And because everything is in cycles, so also with human life which can not be separated from birth, aging, illness, and eventually died as well as the energy of the universe Qi which has a cycle begins: Sheng Qi (born), Wang Qi (strong ), Shuai Qi (weak), Si Qi (dead), and Sha Qi (killer). This is one of the findings from the research of ancient Feng Shui experts in analyzing and identifying all of the phenomena in our world.

If it's a cycle that causes all of the phenomena we face is always changing, then what to do with human life is complicated? To discuss here, I was reminded by the words of an ancient people who say "You Yi Shan Yi Shan Gao, Yi Tian You Yi Tian Gao", which means on top of the mountain there are higher mountains and over the skies of the heavens there are still higher. That is clever-clever us there are still other factors are more ahead of us. This factor is mentioned by ancient scholars as 'X-files' which they found while in the evening with a look to the sky what is happening with many stars? And more than 2000 years ago they were researching though there are many stars in the sky, but there is a constellation in which its presence is always there and look when in the evening. This star cluster is the north pole star (Bei Dou Xing). Here you do not learn the science of the Western zodiac, but according to Chinese records, also found the same thing more than 2000 years ago. You may also try to take a moment to try it tonight and if there are the stars of today to observe a month later or whenever, you'll find one that always seemed to star formation while the other stars that arise and sink!



So what is the connection between the north pole star (Bei Dou Xing) is with our lives - human? As what I have described in the article: Feng Shui and Taoism that the science of Feng Shui is rooted in the teachings of Taoism theology, which in their liturgical Taoism believe many gods and goddesses as well as Greek culture. Bei Dou Xing is the true figure of the gods who have a role that is so big and so strong in the order of worship Taoist, why? Because according to records available every star in the universe has a ruler which in this case we refer to as gods. Well, the gods joined in the arrangement of Bei Dou Xing has an immensely powerful influence in human life, as well as in the science of forecasting what we call Chinese Zi Wei Dou Shu. According to the existing classical literature, such as Han Yu Ji and Si Bi Ji Tian Shu Kuan is written that "The position of the north polar star (Bei Dou Xing) located at the midpoint of the sky that can control all four seasons (spring, summer, autumn and winter) , 5 elements (water, fire, earth, wood, metal), and regulate the Chinese calendar system which peregerakan Qi energy between the heavens and the earth is governed by nine stars ". Nine stars is what we call the north pole star, namely:
1. Tan Lang Xing Jun, associated with a person's popularity and achievements, as well as human vitality.
2. Men Ju Xing Jun, associated with communication and human relationships.
3. Lu Cun Xing Jun, associated with a person's career and material fortune.
4. Wen Qu Xing Jun, associated with the study, appreciation, and promotion of a person.
5. Lian Zhen Xing Jun, which is connected with the fraternal relations between the human and personal life.
6. Wu Qu Xing Jun, associated with power, influence and financial aspects of a person.
7. June Po Xing Jun, associated with the fighting spirit as well as changes in one's life.
8. Zuo Fu Xing Jun, associated with a person's loyalty and prosperity.
9. You Bi Xing Jun, associated with a person's happiness and success.



Furthermore, the ninth of this star we are familiar with the term Xing Jiu Huang ruling in June or nine stars. So what is the relationship between the ninth of this star with the practice of Feng Shui? You need to know that in Feng Shui we are familiar with the term San Yuan! San Yuan here I do not interpret as 3 periods but I interpret it as the three factors of life, namely:
1) Factor the sky, in this case we refer to the nine stars that are restricted by time.
2) Factor the earth, in this case we refer to a location or space that has a limit.
3) The human factor, of ourselves that are in between the two factors mentioned above.

These three factors greatly influence a crucial role in the practice of Feng Shui, why? Because they have a relationship of interdependence with one another, quite simply this: Wherever we are - human beings - are always grounded in the earth and under heaven. In other words we are always limited in space (earth factor) and time (factor of the sky).

Why is the sky factor is represented by nine north pole star has a time parameter? Do you remember that nothing is eternal in this world and we should experience continuous change? Here's the answer! Each of the nine stars in the stars above I can describe as follows:

a. Period of:
1) The first cycle (Tan Lang Xing Jun): year 1864 to 1884
2) The second cycle (Men Ju Xing Jun): year 1884 to 1904
3) The third cycle (Lu Cun Xing Jun): year 1904 to 1924

b. Middle period:
1) The fourth cycle (Wen Qu Xing Jun): year 1924 to 1944
2) The fifth cycle (Lian Zhen Xing Jun): year 1944 to 1964
3) the sixth cycle (Wu Qu Xing Jun): year 1964 to 1984

c. Period below:
1) the seventh cycle (June Xing Po Jun): A year from 1984 to 2004
2) the eighth cycle (Zuo Fu Xing Jun): year 2004 to 2024
3) Cycle ninth (You Bi Xing Jun): year 2024 to 2044

Furthermore, this theory we know as San Yuan Jiu Yun or 3 cycles of period 9. And since Qi has a very important role, the experts called Feng Shui Qi of the sky factor as Yun Qi! As what I have explained that the factors the sky can not stand alone if no factor of the earth, then this is the functional aspect of a building or where we live. Why? Because where there is space, then there should be a time, and vice versa. Houses, offices, factories, stores, or any function of the building in which we live there is definitely the energy flow of Qi Yun factor or the sky. Concrete: a house or building in which we live serves as a catcher and trap the flow of energy from the sky. The only important thing to ask is when houses or buildings we were first built? The first cycle, second, third, etc ...? By knowing the parameters then the next time we can do an analysis of the flow of Qi energy in the home or building!

In the analysis of the flow of Qi energy in a house or any building, we need to consider two important things, namely Xiang (direction toward the house) and Shan (the direction of the house sitting). You need to know that both of these can be exemplified as a human which in Chinese medicine we call the Ren Mai and Du Mai, this is the line once the body is very vital in science as well as Feng Shui. Once we know the direction toward the direction of sitting home and using a Luo Pan (Feng Shui compass) then the next we can determine the point or the location is good or bad in a house. Point or location is what will we play in laying the main door, bedroom, kitchen, family room, toilets, etc.. Fundamentals that we use here is when we already know the direction toward home and sitting direction, then we obtain the center point (Tai Ji) which in theory we refer to it as Feng Shui Tian Xin or literally means the heart of the sky and this can we let you (focal point - Tai Ji) was in a space and time (Xuan Kong) and is surrounded by two groups of people the first is white and the second group is a group of black, Which will you approach? Likewise, the practice of Feng Shui!
