Ancient Chinese philosophy is an inspiration to some people and plain superstition to others. There is a lot of interest in the practice of Feng Shui, both in the East and in the West. The guiding principles affect each aspect of life for those who believe in it. In the last years, the New Age society was influenced by elements such as crystals and wind chimes.


The core of the philosophy is the energy flow or lack of it. How objects are placed in relation to each other dictates this flow and has a positive or negative effect on the environment. The quality of the energy affects relationships, finance and health. Following the rules and recommendations of FengShui, many people arrange the contents of their house. (Some call it Fen Shui or FenShui but its an error)


Different rooms in the house have different needs and they have to be treated in a different way. There should be only one door for the bedroom and the bed should not be positioned in between the window and the door as this could result in troubled sleep. The bed should be constructed from wood and people should be facing the door and sleep at least 45cm above the floor. Pictures of wild animals or water as well as mirrors should be avoided. The windows should be draped by thick curtains and the walls should be painted in blue, red or green shades.


In the kitchen, the cooker and sink should not be adjacent as the proximity of water and fire can be conflictual. Stoves should be installed in the south corner, the room must have a wide entry and microwaves are not suggested. Feng Shui is also applied to dining rooms and living rooms. There should be at least one wall without a window and the walls should be painted in bright colors. Elements that bring luck include mirrors to reflect food on the table, the hanging of family pictures and television sets or hi-fi systems that stand at the west wall.


Even the smallest room in the house, containing the toilet, has guidelines. To keep out negative energy, the toilet lid and door should be kept closed. The room should always be clean and having plants and pictures in there brings bad luck. A dark stairway can bring negative energy, so keep the stairs brightly lit. Good fortune will fall through open stairs and confusion will be brought by a spiral staircase. Entries should also be brightly lit but be painted in muted colors. They should be warm and can be decorated with plants or water features. It's amusing to experiment with Feng Shui and see its affects, if any.
