Classical Feng Shui is a precise and structured traditional discipline. When properly applied, it is based on the analysis of a place’s environment, its orientation, time and the flow of its energies.
Over the years, Feng Shui has unfortunately become associated with countless objects meant to “bring luck”, placed all around the home or the office. These practices have created a certain confusion, and sometimes scepticism, towards Feng Shui.
Yet this approach has very little to do with Classical Feng Shui.
There is no need whatsoever to fill your interior with Asian-inspired decorative objects in order to apply the principles of Feng Shui. Originally, it was never about decoration, nor about using folkloric objects to make an analysis more effective.
A few misconceptions to forget:
- Classical Feng Shui is not an interior decoration method.
- There are no indispensable “lucky charms” in Classical Feng Shui.
- Colours may play a role in certain contexts, but their importance remains relative.
- A genuine Feng Shui analysis focuses first and foremost on the place itself, its environment, its orientation and its energetic characteristics.
