Feng Shui was studied and practised by thousands of masters in China until Chairman Mao banned the practice of Feng Shui in China for a number of years.  This then lead to a large number of Chinese masters leaving China and relocating in Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong.  Eventually Feng Shui found its way to the western world and is now practised all over the world.

Originally Feng Shui was used in agriculture.  This art was then used in dwellings, businesses, grave sites, battle field strategies and later used for fortune telling and personal and professional development.

The word Feng Shui when translated means wind and water in Chinese.  The subtle energies of wind which we cannot see and water that we cannot grasp are the basis of Feng Shui principals used in  China.
