what is feng shui

If you’re a fan of the Da Vinci Code or have done a lot of studying in math, you may already know what the golden ratio is. Or, if you love interior design and are working on your home’s flow, you may be reasonably well versed in Feng Shui. But what do the two have to do with each other?

Feng Shui is a theory that revolves around the design and arrangement of your living and working spaces to achieve harmony and balance. The concept divides the world into Five Elements based on the inner planets, all of which have physical manifestations in different shapes, colors, objects and more.

Feng Shui has become a common household term as it continues to spread into a diaspora of different meanings and uses throughout all continents and cultures. But while more people worldwide know about it than ever, not everyone fully understands what Feng Shui is, its roots, and why it is practised.
