Classical Feng Shui - How to Tell the Difference
A Classical Feng Shui practitioner will first diagnose the issues that may be involved with a particular home or office and the residents occupying this space. With the proper diagnosis and proper "cure," the consultant will help the individuals maximize the successful, living-giving qi. The space will not look like a Chinese restaurant after a classical feng shui practitioner has finished...that is the mark of a good consultant!
New Age Feng Shui practitioners rely heavily on the placement of wealth vases, symbols, and Chinese Cultural items such as Buddhas and Kuan Yins. These items may indeed provide support for your life. However, the true power of feng shui lies in the hands of an authentic Feng Shui practitioner who knows how to diagnose what issues an individual has in their destiny chart and apply the correct feng shui treatment. Feng Shui, used correctly, has the power to keep you alive or to let you die. With the proper diagnosis and proper “cure,” the consultant will help individuals maximize the successful life-giving qi.
THE COSMIC TRINITY:
The core concept of Chinese Metaphysics is the theory of the Cosmic Trinity that refers to the three factors that influence our lives: Heaven, Earth, and Man.
Heaven is Destiny-the life path that is laid out for the person at the time of birth.
Man is Law of Attraction---the thoughts, choices, aspirations and actions a person takes.
Earth is Feng Shui -- the environment, surroundings, and area in which a person lives or works.
Each piece of this trinity does not function in isolation but rather in harmony, creating unique life experiences for each individual.
The Cosmic Trinity is really a metaphysical chicken and egg scenario. We could go on and on about which comes first, which matters more, and which should be prioritized. However, it is more important to realize and appreciate the concept that the Cosmic Trinity illustrates the point that having the right Feng Shui is just as important as using your given talents and taking the right action at the right time with the right attitude.
A New Age feng shui consultant instructed a client to use her main front door and place a fountain at this door to activate some good energy. This same consultant also instructed her to place six metal wind chimes in various locations as well as three other fountains in the home. Here is what happened within a year: her business partnership went bad, her husband became withdrawn, and money stopped flowing into the house. After Infinity Life Design assessed the home and its occupants, it was discovered that the door the family had been using was bringing in the worst energy possible and the fountain activated poor relationships with the husband and wife. Both of their destinies were being served by this home... the man has tremendous wealth in his chart that had been cut off because of the (now) bad feng shui. The woman has relationship problems in her chart which were augmented by all of the fountains in this house configuration. The fountain at the front door had actually stopped the positive money energy that was available to this couple based on the formation their home naturally enjoyed on the property. Within six months of redoing the feng shui, the money again flowed into the home, the marriage was stronger, and the woman had started a new, more prosperous business.
A suggestion for the direction of their next house was made so this man can realize his wealth potential double or triple what would be possible in his current home.
