[how to use feng shui]The basic principles of Feng Shui are: Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, the Eight directions, the Solar System, and the Environment.
Yin And Yang
Yin and Yang (Chinese character 陰陽 (阴阳) pinyin: yīn yáng) are two concepts that refer to the two opposing entities that originally created the entire universe.
Yin and Yang are two concepts formed long ago. Regarding the origin of Yin and Yang and the philosophy of yin and yang, many people follow Confucianism and Liu He (Han Dynasty) who claim that Phuc Hy is a creative person. Others think it is the merit of "Onmyouji", a Chinese sect. Both the above hypotheses have no scientific basis because Phuc Hy is a mythical character, not real and Onmyouji only has the merit of applying yin and yang to explain geography-history. This faction formed in the 3rd century and could not create yin and yang.
Five Elements
According to ancient Chinese philosophy, all things arise from the five basic elements and always undergo five states called: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water (Chinese: 木, 火, 土, 金, 水; pinyin: Blind, huǒ, tǔ, jīn, shuǐ). These five states, called the Five Elements (五行), are not matter like the simple literal interpretation of their names but rather the conventional way of the ancient Chinese to consider interactions. and the relationship of all things.
The Five Elements doctrine interprets the biochemistry of things through two basic principles (生) also known as Mutuality and (克) or Correlation in their interactions and relationships.
Some scholars on the basis of birth and engravings additionally institutionalized, conquered, and humiliated, complemented - described as essentially deduction from the two basic principles mentioned above.
The five elements and the basic principles of the Five Elements have strongly influenced many fields of activities of the Chinese as well as some surrounding countries and territories such as China, Japan, Korea, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore ... from ancient times to present in many fields such as marriage and family, music, painting, architecture, traditional medicine, military, etc.
Eight directions
In feng shui art, people base on the first four directions: East, West, South and North, which form eight directions in a counter-clockwise direction: Main East, Northeast, Main North, Northwest, Main West , Southwest, Main South, Southeast, each direction 45 degrees. These eight directions are further subdivided into 24 azimuths, each 15 degrees azimuth.
In addition, to be more detailed, can be seen in the Weather Forecast, eight additional directions are added: Northeast, Northeast, Southeast, Northwest Northwest, Southwest Southwest, North Northeast, North Northwest, South Southeast, South Southwest. (image)
In addition to the above eight directions, there are two more directions: heaven (heaven) and people (underground) as the saying "the ten Buddhas".
Solar system
The Solar System (also known as the Solar System) is a planetary system with the Sun at its center and the bodies within the Sun's gravity range, all of which were formed by the collapse of a solar system. giant molecular cloud nearly 4.6 billion years ago. Most celestial bodies revolve around the Sun, and the mass is concentrated mainly on eight planets with near-circular orbits and closely overlapping orbital planes called zodiacal planes. The four inner small planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars - they are also called rocky planets because they are composed primarily of rocks and metals. The four outer gas giant planets are far more massive than the four inner planets. The two largest planets, Jupiter and Saturn are composed primarily of helium and hydrogen; and the two outermost planets, Uranus and Neptune have their main components from ice, such as water, ammonia and methane, and sometimes they are classified into giant ice planets. There are six planets and three dwarf planets with orbiting natural moons. These satellites are called "moons" after the Earth's moon. Each outer planet also has planetary rings containing dust, particles and small orbiting objects.
Environment
Environment is a combination of natural and social elements surrounding the outside of a system. They affect this system and determine its trend and existence. Environment can be considered as a subset, in which the system is considered a subset. The environment of a system under consideration needs to be interactive with that system.
A clearer definition such as: Environment is a collection of all natural and social factors surrounding people, affecting people and affecting human activities such as: air, water , humidity, organisms, human society and institutions.
In general, an object's environment consists of matter, conditions, other objects or certain conditions in which it surrounds this object or the activities of the object taking place in them.
