Feng Shui How-to Video

Feng Shui How-to Video (5min 32sec), with Angi Ma Wong, Cynthia D. Butler, and Robin Eiko Yoshida, tells you that you can add balance, tranquility and harmony to your home through the use of Feng Shui techniques. In ancient times as well as today, Feng shui, pronounced in English as "fung shway", was known as "Kan-Yu" which means 'The Law of Heaven and Earth.’ Today's Feng Shui schools teach that it is the ancient Chinese practice of placement and arrangement of space to achieve harmony with the environment. Feng shui literally translates as "wind-water." This is a cultural shorthand taken from the following passage of the Zhangshu (Book of Burial) by Guo Pu of the Jin Dynasty. Feng shui is a discipline with guidelines that are compatible with many techniques of architectural planning. Space, weather, astronomy, and geomagnetism are basic components of feng shui. However, many believe there are unexplainable scientific factors involved and so consider it a metaphysical art. Proponents claim that feng shui has an effect on health, wealth, and personal relationships.
