1. Feng Shui originated in China, which was founded on agriculture, and since ancient times, natural phenomena have determined the harvest of agriculture and indirectly affected the fate of people.

Over time, people have paid more and more attention to the relationship between man and nature

The concept of "the unity of man and nature". In this case, the initial Feng Shui activity, the Place-Choosing Activity, begins.

From the very beginning, Feng Shui has put people in the position of adapting to their environment rather than changing it.

2. The combination of the five elements and feng shui was formed in the Shang Dynasty. The earliest classic that proposed the five elements was "Shangshu Hongfan": "Five elements: one is water, two is fire, three is wood, four is gold, and five is earth. The water is said to be moist, the fire is said to be on the fire, the wood moon is straight, the gold is said to be from the leather, the soil is from the grain, the moist is the feeling, the flame is bitter, the straight is sour, the leather is bitter, and the grain is sweet. This is primitive materialism, which tries to summarize the origin of all things in the world in terms of five different substances (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth), and explain the derivation of all things in the world in terms of their mutual generation and restraint.

The law of the five elements is that wood gives birth to fire, fire gives birth to earth, earth gives birth to gold, gold gives birth to water, and water gives birth to wood; Mu Ke Earth, Tu Ke Water, Water Ke Fire, Fire Ke Jin, Jin Ke Mu, Mu Ke Tu.

In Feng Shui, the five elements not only represent the five directions of east, south, west, north, and middle, but were also later extended to represent the five colors and five tones, such as water representing both the north and black and feather sounds.

The shrine in Beijing's Zhongshan Park is the embodiment of the concept of the five elements. In the Han Dynasty, the five-tone phase house method prevailed.

This is a method of phase house based on ancient phonology and the theory of the five elements of shengke. The pronunciation of the surname of the owner of the house is divided into five categories according to Gong, Shang, Jiao, 徴, and Yu, and the specific division of the five tones is: if the pronunciation of the surname is the surname in the tongue, the pronunciation is the surname of Shang in the teeth, the pronunciation is the horn surname in the teeth, the pronunciation is the palace surname in the larynx, and the pronunciation is the surname Yu in the lips.

The correspondence between the five tones and the five elements is: Shang, Jin Ye (Western); 徴, fire also (southern); Horn, wood also (oriental); Palace, earth also (middle); Feather, water also (northern).

For example, the door of the house of a person with a surname cannot be opened to the north, because the surname is fire, and the north belongs to water, and water overcomes fire. The door of the house of a person with the surname Shang should not be opened to the south, because the surname of Shang belongs to gold, and the south belongs to fire, and fire is gold, but the door of the surname Shang can be opened to the east and north, because wood and water are not gold.

This is a derivation of the concept of the five elements. 3. When yin and yang and gossip served the feng shui Zhou Dynasty, "Zhou Yi" was written.

Since Confucianism respected the "Zhou Yi" as the head of the group classics, as Confucianism occupied a dominant position in the ideological and cultural field of feudal society, the yin and yang and gossip theories of the "Zhou Yi" were promoted, and began to enter the field of feng shui and serve feng shui.

"Zhou Yi" is the combined name of the two books "I Ching" and "Yi Chuan", "I Ching" is a book for divination, and its basic symbol is

"-" and

"--", respectively called yang and yin, every three lines form a hexagram, there are eight possibilities, divided into eight trigrams; Every six hexagrams form a hexagram, which is sixty-four hexagrams.

The Book of Changes is a book that explains the 64 hexagrams, and predicts the good fortune and evil of things for each hexagram.

The Book of Changes is the interpretation, supplementation and play of the Book of Changes by later scholars. The appearance of "Zhou Yi" also made yin and yang and gossip ideas appear in feng shui.

Feng Shui is a Chinese art with a long history. Its foundation comes from the theory of yin and yang and the five elements, and the more academic term is called Kanyu.

There is quite a bit of commentary and controversy about Feng Shui, with some arguing that Feng Shui is a comprehensive science in China, combining time-honored observations about the environment, geography, health, and more.

There are also those who believe that Feng Shui is an old-world superstition that hinders the creativity of Chinese in architectural design, interior design, etc.

The history of Feng Shui is quite long, and there are many documents related to Feng Shui that have been preserved. From the literature, it can be known that ancient feng shui was mostly used to view the funeral terrain, as well as palace construction.

Modern feng shui is not limited to this, from tall buildings to small people moving, it is possible to invite a feng shui master to come to Kanyu.

The most well-known idiom in Feng Shui is to sit in the north and face south, with the mountains and rivers in your back. Other terms include road rushing, piercing the heart, broken beam, and so on.

The term "Feng Shui" was first seen in the "Book of Burial" written by Guo Pu in the Jin Dynasty: "Qi, if you ride the wind, you will disperse, and if you take the water, you will stop; The ancients gathered to make it not disperse, and the line made it stop, so it was called feng shui. "This is the earliest definition of Feng Shui.

The work also puts forward the gist of Feng Shui: "In the method of Feng Shui, the water is the first, and the Tibetan wind is secondary." "The fundamental foundation and core ideological basis of Feng Shui comes from the Book of Changes.

Originally, Feng Shui was a practical and unpretentious skill of ancient Chinese ancestors regarding the choice of living environment.

Later with the Chinese related

With the establishment of the ideological system of "the unity of heaven and man" and the continuous enrichment and improvement of the I Ching, which has comprehensively affected social life, the theory of feng shui has begun to build a magnificent theoretical system, accumulated rich experience in practice, and comprehensively influenced and changed the living environment and lifestyle of Chinese.

Feng Shui is a unique cultural phenomenon of the Chinese, a widely spread technique of choosing good fortune and avoiding evil, the art and learning of the Chinese about the relationship between the environment and people, and the great method for the Chinese to understand nature, conform to nature, and transform nature to create a harmonious coexistence between man and nature.

Feng Shui is a kind of science about the selection and orientation of people's living and office environment, the layout of furnishings, and the selection of days.

It takes the yin and yang philosophy of the I Ching as the starting point, combines the coding of the five elements, eight trigrams, twelve hours, twenty-four mountains and other cosmic atlases as the theoretical basis and operation methods, and highly embodies the harmony and unity of man and nature, man and the external world with the unique concept of auspiciousness and evil of the universe unique to Chinese.

The basic orientation of Feng Shui is to focus on the relationship between man and architecture, nature, ie

The relationship between "heaven and man" is that of thousands of years of civilization with China

The cosmology and aesthetics of "the unity of man and nature" remain fundamentally consistent. so-called

"House, choice; The house is also in an auspicious place. ”

Feng Shui emphasizes that "the husband is the hub of yin and yang, and the model of humanity." …… Where mortals live, they are all in the house...... The house is the foundation of people, and people take the house as their home.

Ju Ruo'an, that is, the family generation Changji; If you are uneasy, the clan will decline. It can be seen that in order to live and work in peace and contentment and prosper for generations, the ancient Chinese could not but pay attention to feng shui and do everything possible to find the treasure land of feng shui.

The concept of "Zhaiji is the glory of people" is deeply imprinted in the minds of Chinese. Xianxianyun: Divination is not fine, and it is one thing; Medicine is not refined, and it is harmful to one person; The geography is not refined, and the family is wiped out.

It can be seen how important Feng Shui is in people's hearts. In Feng Shui, the location selection, orientation, internal structure design and layout of the house are very particular, people living in the house can feel the influence of various natural information, and the house can play a role in adjusting, channeling, resolving and integrating various information.

Houses affect people's mental and emotional, physical and mental health all the time, and then affect people's career, financial luck and family emotions and other aspects.

In modern life, Feng Shui mainly focuses on the investigation and adjustment of environmental factors such as sunlight, air, water quality, geomagnetism, sound, color, temperature and humidity, electromagnetic radiation, and pathogen breeding, represented by aura and water quality, mediated by architecture.

At the same time, it includes the application of architectural, astronomical, geographical, physical, chemical, biological and visual aesthetic parameters of the environment, so as to create pure natural and artificial conditions that act on people's physiology and psychology at all times.

In short, Feng Shui is the grasp and adjustment of the environment, and the accurate understanding and application of the time, place, and people.

Feng Shui mainly includes three most important factors: one is the general environment, that is, the cosmic aura state and energy direction in the specific time and space where people exist; the second is the small environment, that is, the environment in which people exist and the trend of people's aura; The third is human morality, that is, human heart, so-called

"Blessed land and blessed human habitation", blessed people are virtuous people, which reflects a high degree of learning of the unity of heaven and man.

Feng Shui pays attention to the accumulation of virtue. There is a poem: "The world knows that the cave is in the mountain, but how do you know that the hole is in the square inch." "Good mountains and good waters, the world is not owed, and no one else can find them.

The graves of the rich and noble, the descendants are poor and lowly when they are buried. Its wealth and power can be sought, and the personnel are extremely changing. The square inch is the heart, that is, to think more about good deeds.

If you want to be good in the yin, you must first have a good heart. To require good feng shui, it should be based on accumulating virtue. If virtue is not cultivated, even if you find good feng shui, future generations will not be blessed, but will see evil.

Because, good feng shui is reserved for the virtuous. Those who have no virtue will get the treasure land of feng shui, and if they are not used, the auspicious land will become a fierce land.

How can it be possible to seek good feng shui without cultivating virtue, for example, seeking harvest without farming? It can be seen from this that the purpose of the unity of heaven and man occupies an important position in Feng Shui, and it is highly concentrated in philosophy and ethics.

Feng Shui is a multidisciplinary discipline that integrates astronomy and geography and studies nature and man.

In the process of circulation and evolution for a long time, Feng Shui has been artificially mixed with many mysterious and even exaggerated elements, and at the same time, due to the influence of customs, concepts and conservative psychology, the real essence part is rarely spread to the market, resulting in many fallacies to mislead the world, objectively speaking, this has become the main reason why Feng Shui is regarded as superstitious.

Throughout history, the selected capital addresses of the Chinese dynasties, such as Luoyang, Xi'an, Kaifeng, Lin'an, Beijing (Yanjing), Nanjing, etc., as well as provincial capitals, state capitals, county seats, major commercial ports, most of the places have been selected by the national teachers who are proficient in feng shui, these cities are mostly surrounded by mountains and rivers, so the economy and culture, science and technology, industrial and agricultural production must be developed, and some have experienced thousands of years not only not decay, but more prosperous, such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other places are becoming more and more prosperous day by day.

In Feng Shui, the idea of Yin and Yang was later combined with the theory of Qi, called Yin and Yang, which was used to explain the composition and changes of all things in heaven and earth, for example, in Feng Shui, earthquakes are thought to be caused by the disorder of Yin and Yang.

In Feng Shui, Bagua is given some specific meanings, in addition to being mainly used to denote the eight directions.

For example, the kan in the gossip not only represents the north, but also can be water, representing rivers, rivers, deep wells, and cold springs.

It is according to these specific meanings of the five elements and eight trigrams that Feng Shui attaches the good and bad fortune of some things. Along with the introduction of gossip, there are also some methods of divination and the concept of good luck and evil, which also makes feng shui more and more a mysterious theory.

The five-tone phase house method that prevailed in the Han Dynasty declined in the Sui Dynasty, and the phase house method that prevailed after the Tang Dynasty was based on gossip

"Eight houses of the year of the tour". The Eight Houses of the Year is mainly to make

"House hexagram" and the house owner's

"Fortune hexagrams" are combined, and if they are combined, they are auspicious, and if they are not together, they are evil. in Feng Shui

"Fortune hexagram" is the name of the gossip hexagram corresponding to the year of birth of the owner of the house, which can be found by the owner of the house

The "fortune hexagram" can also derive the auspicious direction of the owner of the house. The discussion at the beginning of this article about the direction of the opening of the courtyard is actually that

The conclusion of some of the algorithms of "house hexagrams" coincides with the functional requirements of buildings in the vast regional climate of China.

It can be seen that behind these bizarre patterns of good luck and evil, there is a lot of accumulation and generalization of practical experience, so that most of the Feng Shui conclusions can be consistent with the function of the building.

The Eight Houses method was the most popular in the Qing Dynasty, and it is still widely used in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and other places, and in recent years, it has become popular in the mainland from the new.

Feng Shui, a traditional culture that makes people rich and poor, a custom that is widely spread among the people, a technique to avoid evil, a science about the natural environment, and a kind of supreme metaphysics that adjusts and transforms destiny, has made many people flock to it from ancient times to the present, and even spend their lives visiting the Master.

Because bad feng shui will make people get into trouble with officials, commit peach blossoms, suffer from evil diseases, and have bad luck, while good feng shui will make people rise to a higher position, get a windfall, add a noble son, and get good luck.

Feng Shui culture has a history of more than 5,000 years in China, with a long history and continuous enrichment and improvement.

In ancient China, literate people generally knew Feng Shui, and many great officials and virtuous people were proficient in Feng Shui. During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Feng Shui was disseminated; The Song Dynasty was a flourishing period, and the Ming and Qing dynasties reached their heyday.

In modern history, Feng Shui was very popular in old China, and after the liberation and the Cultural Revolution, Feng Shui in China was devastatingly attacked and destroyed.

In recent years, with the development of the construction industry and ecological environment and the international emphasis on Feng Shui, the ancient science of Feng Shui has been revitalized.

What does Feng Shui mean? The term Feng Shui was first seen in the Eastern Jin Dynasty,

"The air is dispersed by the wind, and the boundary water stops. The gathering does not disperse, and the line makes it stop, so it is called feng shui"; Today's dictionary explains: "Feng Shui, also known as Kanyu, used to refer to the geographical situation of the house, etc., and believed that the quality of Feng Shui is related to the prosperity and misfortune of a family."

However, there are many

"Mr. Feng Shui" doesn't understand what Feng Shui means, but he helps people see Feng Shui disasters, etc., which is incomprehensible. From the definition of Feng Shui, Feng Shui emphasizes Qi (a combination of factors), and Qi can only be obtained when sheltering from the wind and gathering water.

The same fruit tree species produces different fruits in different places, but the same tree produces very different fruits, due to their different qi.

From the perspective of modern scientific theories, Feng Shui is a discipline related to the selection, planning and design of residences, villages and towns, buildings and cemeteries in ancient China.

The theoretical basis of Feng Shui calculation is Qi, Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Bagua, etc., and Feng Shui advocates

"The unity of man and nature" means that man and nature live in harmony, and everything in man and nature is an organic whole.

The formation of Chinese Feng Shui has a long history, dating back to ancient times. In primitive society, although there is no feng shui theory, because of the harsh natural environment to the survival of people, and because of the agricultural and pastoral society, people at that time had to

"Choose a place to live", choose

"Near the water and facing the sun" is a suitable place for human reproduction and habitation. It's an adaptable choice. After entering the civilized society, Feng Shui was immediately recorded in writing, such as the oracle bone inscriptions, which have many records about divination houses.

From a large number of oracle bone inscriptions and the Book of Poetry excavated in later generations, it can be seen that during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the Chinese divided the land area into different landforms such as mountains, ports, hills, plains, tombs, and gangs, and divided the water areas into rivers, springs, rivers, streams, swamps, rivers, rivers, and tuos.

In the Book of Shang, the territory at that time was divided into Kyushu with rivers and mountains as the boundary, which was later called in China

The origin of "Kyushu". Such a text appears in the "Rites of the Week".

"With the law of the soil, we should do the famous things of the two out of ten, and remove their interests and disadvantages with the people's houses, and the people of Fu, the birds and beasts, and the grass and trees." began to appear

The saying of "Xiangmin House" and has

"Tuyi Law" is a knowledge system that is related to the ground. "Yi Zhou Book" contains

"When the soil is suitable for the day, all things are governed", it can be seen

The word "Tuyi" echoes the time of the day, and attaching the heaven and the earth is the rule of observance of all things at that time, and it is also the method of governing things, so it has become the basis of feng shui in later generations.

During the Zhou Dynasty, when King Wu of Zhou built Luoyi, he ordered the Duke of Zhou to be the land, which is contained in the Book of Shang

"Summoning the Duke of the Mansion, the Duke of Zhou went to the camp into Zhou, and the envoy came to tell the divination." It can be seen that the people of the Zhou Dynasty believed in divination, and Zhou Gong was also a master of Xiangdi.

During the Warring States and Pre-Qin periods, various scholarships arose, and with the development of the "Zhou Yi" and the Yin and Yang Five Elements Doctrine, they began to be established

"Looking up at astronomy and looking down at geography" is the dominant academic thought. After Qin Shi Huang unified China, he not only inherited the previous ones

The concept of "Tuyi" is more specific and began to appear at the same time

The concept of "qi". From the Book of Jin

"When the first emperor, the qi seeker cloud 'five hundred years later, Jinling has the spirit of the son of heaven', so the first emperor traveled east to suppress it, changed its place to say Moling, and cut the north mountain to eliminate its momentum." There was one at the time

The saying of "qi seeker" shows that there are already professional workers in the feng shui industry. According to the Taiping Huanyu Ji, volume 95, there was a mountain in Changshui County in the Qin Dynasty (now south of Jiaxing County, Zhejiang Province), and Qin Shi Huang heard that the sorcerer said that there was a king's spirit on the mountain, so he sent a group of death row prisoners to dig the mountain, and the prisoners could not stand the hard work and dispersed in a hurry.

Qin Shi Huang built the Afang Palace covers an area of nearly 300 miles, the palace annexes are all over the valley, with the South Mountain as the palace gate, with Fan Chuan as the pool, the front hall of the Afang can sit nearly 10,000 people.

The first royal family mobilized 700,000 people to hollow out Lishan Mountain and penetrate the triple soil, and the scale was truly unprecedented.

There is also the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, covering a vast area and a grand scale, the implementation of these two major projects, showing that the level of the Qin Dynasty is very high, from which it is not difficult to experience the superb geographical survey technology of the Qin Dynasty, and it can also be attributed to the development of the Xiangdi technique.

In fact, as early as the pre-Qin period, there were activities of the Xiang House, on the one hand, it was the residence of the living people, and on the other hand, it was the cemetery of the dead.

"Shangshu".

"The king is in Feng, and he wants to live in the house, so that the prince will live in the house first." This is Xiangyang House. "The Book of Filial Piety".

"Bu Qi's house is a sign and a house." This is the Xiangyin house, and it is to use the method of divination to choose the location. By the time of the Western Han Dynasty, the art of phase land was even more popular.

According to Sima Qian's "Historical Records", Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty gathered to occupy his family and asked someone if he could marry, but the public opinion family said no.

At this time, the Kanyu family was proficient in astronomy and geography, and the art of phase earth was also called

"Form Law". In the Eastern Han Dynasty, people began to attach importance to funerals, which led to the rise of the concept of feng shui. Wang Chong's "On Balance" describes in detail the taboo of funerals.

The Eastern Han people paid great attention to the living environment, as mentioned in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty

The home principle of "making the house have a good field and a wide house, the back of the mountain and the stream, the ditch and the pond are circumferential, the bamboo and wood are clothed, the field is built in front of the garden, and the orchard is behind the tree" has become the basic theory of the yang house in later generations.

In the Han Dynasty, Feng Shui works such as "Kanyu Jinkui", "Palace House Topography", "Migration Law", and "Tu Zhai Shu" also appeared, marking the preliminary induction and summary of Feng Shui in theory.

During the Wei and Jin dynasties, there were many feng shui masters in China, the most famous of which was Guo Pu, whose "Book of Burials" extracted feng shui from the traditional phase and earth techniques, defined feng shui, and comprehensively framed the theory of feng shui, laying the foundation of feng shui in later generations.

He initiated it

"The law of feng shui, the water is the first, and the Tibetan wind is secondary" has been passed down for more than 1,700 years and has not fallen, and it is even more shining today.

Chinese are accustomed to calling Guo Pu the originator of Feng Shui. The Sui Dynasty did not believe in feng shui in comparison, but there was a famous Xiangdi master Xiao Ji, who wrote famous works such as "Xiangdi Yaolu", "House Scripture", "Funeral Sutra", "Five Elements of Righteousness", etc., which were admired by future generations.

He once chose an auspicious place for the empress, and when the emperor did not listen to his advice, he predicted that the fortune of the Sui Dynasty would not be long.

When Yang Gongren, the prime minister of the Sui Dynasty, moved his ancestral tomb, he invited five or six groups of feng shui masters to come to Xiangdi, and one of them named Shu Xuan guessed the underground things and was rewarded.

It can be seen that feng shui was still prevalent at that time. The Tang Dynasty was a rare heyday in Chinese history, and various academic studies also flourished, and at the same time, the development of feng shui theory was further promoted, forming a relatively complete theoretical system.

At that time, generally literate people knew Feng Shui, and a large number of famous teachers appeared. Among them, Yang Yunsong, a feng shui master of the Jiangxi School, played a role in the comprehensive promotion of the folk practice of feng shui survey and apprenticeship, and since then, in the vast land of China, palaces, villages, and tombs have been influenced by feng shui doctrine to varying degrees.

The famous Tang Xuanzong also believed in feng shui, and there are many records of feng shui in the "New Words of the Tang Dynasty" and "Taiping Guangji".

At that time, the Taoist priests also knew a lot about feng shui, and the Tang Dynasty had a "Si Tian Prison", which specialized in astronomical phenomena, so the officials in the Si Tian Jian must know Feng Shui.

Yang Yunsong served in Si Tianjian, and Tang Xizong named him a national teacher, and the official was a doctor of Jin Ziguanglu, who was in charge of the geography of Lingtai, which shows that the feng shui of the Tang Dynasty was not only believed by the people, but also valued by the imperial court.

Yang Yunsong later took out the feng shui books of the court and spread them in Jiangxi, and his disciple Yingmen had a great response.

The Tang Dynasty was a powerful country, and its territory expanded to the Western Regions, and the "House Classic" and "Yin and Yang Book" were found in the documents of the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, so that the concept of feng shui spread to the northwest region.

After the death of the Tang Dynasty, there were five dynasties and ten kingdoms, because of the Feng Shui concept that flourished in the Tang Dynasty, all generations of emperors believed in Feng Shui, and in the Later Zhou Dynasty, Feng Shui was added to many superstitious colors, making it difficult for the world to distinguish between the true and the false.

In the Song Dynasty, famous Yi scholars such as Chen Jun, Shao Kangjie, Zhu Xi, and Cai Yuanding explained and identified Feng Shui, and some Feng Shui works were published one after another, resulting in the emergence of a Feng Shui theoretical system with the Jiangxi Xingfa School and the Fujian Lifa School as the main body.

Song Huizong believed in feng shui, he originally had no children, and a warlock told him that if he increased the terrain in the northwest corner of the capital several times, he could get a son, so he ordered someone to do the same, and he really got a son.

Therefore, he believed in feng shui even more, and ordered people to choose a treasure to build the "Shangqing Treasure Seal Palace", which resulted in the loss of labor and money, the emptiness of the treasury, and the decline of the regime.

There were many feng shui masters in the Song Dynasty, such as Lai Wenjun, Chen Jun, Xu Renwang, Wu Jingluan, Fu Botong, Cai Yuanding, etc.

When Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty built the capital of Jinling, he attached great importance to feng shui, most of the mountains outside the city were facing the city, there was the tendency of facing the arch, only the Niushou Mountain and the Huashan were facing the city wall, Zhu Yuanzhang was displeased, sent someone to beat the Niushou Mountain with a hundred sticks, and dug a hole in the cow's nose with an iron cable to pass through, so that the Niushou Mountain turned inward, and at the same time cut down trees on the Huashan to make the mountain bald.

When the Ming Dynasty became the ancestor, the capital was moved to Beijing, that is, it was built completely in accordance with the concept of feng shui. Ming Chengzu was an emperor who believed in feng shui, which also led to the people all paying attention to feng shui, and feng shui became a very important criterion in the life of the Ming Dynasty.

Famous places in Beijing

"Ming Tombs" is recommended to Ming Chengzu by the feng shui master Liao Junqing, and became the mausoleum area of the Ming Dynasty emperor.

There is also a legendary Liu Bowen in the Ming Dynasty, folklore has it that he is good at feng shui, saying that the capital of Jinling is the place where he is looking, and there is a book of "Kanyu Manxing" is named after him.

In the Qing Dynasty, there was a Si Tianjian who was not only responsible for observing the heavens and astronomy, but also responsible for the construction of the mausoleum, because the emperors of the Qing Dynasty believed in feng shui and attached great importance to the location of the mausoleum.

The Qing Dynasty Eastern Tomb is 125 kilometers long from north to south, 26 kilometers wide from east to west, spanning three suburban counties of Beijing, with a total area of 2,500 square kilometers, it is an extremely large imperial cemetery, which shows that the Qing Dynasty emperor attached great importance to the feng shui of the mausoleum.

The Forbidden City, which has been preserved intact so far, is a classic masterpiece of architecture in strict accordance with feng shui, and its magnificent momentum has conquered many people in the world.

The Qing Dynasty also had a National Teacher's Mansion, with a total of more than 400 National Teachers. Because these national teachers received generous salaries, they devoted their lives to serving the dynasty and the emperor.

The tasks of the National Teacher's Mansion are: first, to find a good feng shui treasure for the dynasty and arrange how to use it; The second is to destroy the geographical feng shui of the people, so that people dare not rebel against the imperial court and cannot seize the throne.

This is an illustration of the rulers of feudal dynasties using the invisible science of geo-feng shui as their ruling tool.

Throughout history, the pre-Qin period was the gestation period of Feng Shui, the Song Dynasty was the prevailing period, and the Ming and Qing dynasties were the flood period.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, through the collection and sorting of various feng shui books and the continuous research of scholars, the theory of feng shui has been quite complete.

Feng Shui masters' survey activities have spread to everything from imperial palaces to urban and rural houses. From the Republic of China to the present, scholars have mainly re-evaluated and studied the traditional Chinese feng shui culture.

In the last century, Feng Shui was a great market in old China, and the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum of Sun Yat-sen, the founding father of the country, was determined after repeated surveys by the famous Xuankong Feng Shui master Shen Zhu.

After the liberation, the theory of Feng Shui was dealt a heavy blow, but it is still being used in practice. After the 70s of the last century, Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States and other regions set off a craze for the study of Chinese feng shui, so that more and more foreigners began to use feng shui theory to guide their lives.

Contemporary Feng Shui is in an unprecedented period of integration and renewal, a large number of scholars are tirelessly studying Feng Shui in order to make it better for the benefit of mankind, taking its essence and removing its dross, and combining it with modern science, making a scientific evaluation and a new interpretation and development of traditional Feng Shui.

Feng Shui is lifting its mystery and entering the lives of modern people.
