Feng Shui is a hot topic these days. People are seeking the balance and harmony in their lives. This makes sense. When it comes to your home, your love life, and your prosperity, who wouldn't want a little balance, harmony, and positive vibes?
In order to make the most of the art and science of this ancient Chinese practice, it's best if we learn a little about the bagua Feng Shui map.
The bagua map is shaped like an octagon with 8 sides. The number 8, by the way, is an auspicious Feng Shui number. In other words, 8 is a luck number. This 8 directional map is a tool that aids you in designing your home and work space. The bagua is one of the most important tools you can have in your Feng Shui arsenal. Without it, you cannot truly create, interpret and use the 5 element theory -- essential in creating and maintaining a harmonious flow of energy.
Each part of the bagua 8 directional map represents a part of your home, which in turn, represents a particular aspect of life. Your home is your life.
There are 9 main life centers and each one has its own traits and particular elements. Through synchronizing each of these life areas in your home using the bagua, you can experience an equal harmony in life itself.
Wow, this may sound complicated...and it can be. Or it can be simple. Let me make it simple.
