Feng Shui House & Feng Shui Energies – Facts and Myths

Feng Shui Chi happens to have two sides, like yin and yang, meaning that there is a good and bad Chi. Chi also exists in various shapes based on nature's elements - metal, earth, wood, water, and fire. To extrapolate further, Chi can go beyond being broken into the elements of nature to the corresponding Feng Shui colors that embody them.
Feng Shui House has various goals but the top one involves Chi, and learning how to guide it in areas where you spend time. You want good Chi in your living and work space since it feeds the spirit and keeps the flow of energy positive. This positive Chi that makes your environment alive with effervescence is known as Sheng Chi. Where you have positive, you also have negative. Si Chi is the name for negative energy and Sha Chi which literally translates to low and depressing and sharp and attacking.
