FENG SHUI STRANDS

Overview

These pages are concerned with the different aspects (or constituent parts) of Feng Shui, any or all of which might come up in a Feng Shui consultation.

In normal conversation one might talk about the "elements" which go to make up Feng Shui, but within Feng Shui "elements" has a particular meaning, so that word cannot be used.

Heaven, Man and Earth

Like many cultures, Feng Shui cosmology is based on a triple-decker view of the universe. In the Christian West, this is described as Heaven, Earth and Hell, in Shamanic cultures, the Upper, Middle and Lower Worlds.

In Feng Shui, the big picture - as set out in the I Ching - consists of the following:

Heaven

This is what comes to us "from above". Top down. Often associated with father figures as the head of the household. The situation in the sense of that which is "given". Heaven therefore includes weather, astrology and tends towards the male.

Feng Shui Strands associated with Heaven include:

Astrology

Man

Our actions and their effects. The traces we leave behind us, subtle and unsubtle. What we make of our situation.

Feng Shui Strands associated with Man include:

	Clutter
	Predecessor Energy
	Space Clearing

Earth

The influence the earth has upon us, for good or ill. Geopathic stresses and their effect. Dowsing, Earth acupuncture. Geomancy. The female.

Feng Shui Strands associated with Earth include:

	Dowsing
	Earth Acupuncture
	Geopathic Stress

Alphabetical list of Strands

For convenience, we have compiled a non-exhaustive alphabetical list of Strands, containing some categories which do not fit neatly into the above three-way classification.

Grand Theory

Coming in the future we will set out some thoughts on how the whole system fits together.
