Originally, feng shui is an ancient Chinese system of aesthetics that believe in the influences of both the heaven and the earth in the fate of one’s life. Therefore, feng shui experts long ago were consulted for the arrangement of objects and features as well as buildings and infrastructures to create a harmonic balance between the heaven or the astronomical influence and the earth or the geographical influence to improve the city’s commerce and its people’s lifestyle. Unfortunately, most part of the ancient feng shui system was lost or misinterpreted as the belief is passed from generations to generations of practitioners. Thus, as a result, feng shui gained undesirable attention such as misconception, people raising eyebrows to its ideas and principles, and the most common situation: the use of feng shui as an interior and exterior house design.

As many people tend to believe that rearranging their houses and furniture according to the system of feng shui will eventually improve their lives, they also tend to be deceived by self-proclaimed experts into buying expensive charms and figures. Thus, in seeking feng shui advices for your house, it is advisable to be wise and to determine if the arrangements are indeed making sense as well as practical.
