Feng Shui
Also remember that the definition of “home” can go beyond what we usually think of.
Pronounced “fung schway,” Feng Shui is a Chinese art that has been practiced for thousands of years. The Chinese believe that a life energy flows through all people and things. This energy is known as Qi or Chi (pronounced “chee”).
The energy of CHEE is actually related to water. We can understand it as air. Ancient Chinese culture believed that water is a magical substance. Water can become solid, liquid, or gaseous. Water has memory. The human body is composed of 65% water. , there are water molecules in the air, and water can affect people’s health, mood, and luck. Feng shui is a science that uses air. When Qi flows freely through the space we inhabit, it helps our personal Qi remain balanced and we experience happiness, health, wealth, and good luck.
Feng Shui, at the core of the “Book of Changes” (Yijing), wields a greater and more profound influence than physiognomy and the Eight Characters (Ba Zi), with a broader scope of knowledge. It’s not mere mythology; Feng Shui encompasses astronomy and geography. By observing the growth patterns of trees, we can discern the geomagnetic field, which has a history that extends deeper and further than the former two disciplines combined.
The earliest roots of Feng Shui stem from the “Book of Changes” (Yijing). Its founders, Nuwa and Fuxi, are also credited with the “He Tu” and “Luo Shu.” Both Nuwa and Fuxi are the earliest recorded creators in Chinese mythology, noteworthy for their symbolic tools: Nuwa wields a compass, while Fuxi holds a square. It’s worth noting that these tools are representative symbols of the Freemasons.
According to mythology, the compass represents the circle and the square represents the ruler, symbolizing order and regulation, which in Western concepts is often termed as “order”.

The Freemasons, officially known as the Free and Accepted Masons, are a fraternal organization with lodges spread worldwide. It evolved from medieval associations of stonemason guilds in Europe. Freemasonry is also referred to as Masonic Order, Masonry, Craft Masonry, or simply Masonry.
The term “Freemasonry” in Chinese reflects the nature of the organization. Its members are called “Masons,” originally meaning stonemasons. The English term “Freemasonry” originates from the literal meaning of “free stonemason guild,” hence “Freemasonry.” The Chinese organization Hung Mun is known as Chinese Freemasonry in English.
