32. * Qi – is not just energy – it is energy that supports life
*.
*Qi is the invisible force that shapes, nurtures and governs all
living beings.
*Qi cannot be seen or heard, however it’s influence can be felt
around us in all places.
*Qi is visible by effect.
*How to harness Qi in our environment is the main concern of
Classical Feng Shui.

*Sha Qi – Negative
*‘bad breaths’ of Qi, destructive Qi
34. *When Qi is a positive force it brings
supportive energy to your life whether
in mental or physical health, good
relationships and increased prosperity.
*When Qi is a negative, it is a blocking,
depleting and destructive force.
42. *Qi pools and collects in open spaces
*To be beneficial, Qi must circulate and
not be stagnant
*In narrow spaces, Qi is squeezed and
moves rapidly
*Qi flows downwards, never upwards

physical body a Feng Shui expert sees
land and buildings as bodies of energy

*Its internal layout, flow of Qi
*The location of the main door, and main
rooms, bedrooms, offices, kitchens.
82.
83. *Is there a spot for Qi to collect?
*A ‘Bright Hall’ is an open space that
allows Qi to meander into and collect,
before entering a property and should
therefore be present right before and
after the main door.
93. *To evaluate the front door it is important
to not only look in, but to also look out.
94.

98. *When Qi becomes Sha (negative
energy) it is unstable. It is experienced
as attacking, aggressive and
confrontational force. Over time, this
type of energy will deplete the life
force of the building, causing problems
with relationships, mental and physical
health and wealth.

and improve your physical and mental health
and relationships on all levels.

your life.
131. *Good Feng Shui is visible by effect

How are your relationships? Are you
saving money? Do you get the
recognition you deserve? How are your
energy levels?

The model that is used as a guide in the ancient texts looks similar to this. It is often referred to as the arm chair. The principles behind this model exist on a macro and micro level. On a macro level, you want a solid mountain behind you, gaurdian mountains flanking either side, protecting the site from wind and a foot stool in front, supporting and collecting energy.
