| | |  Feng Shui - Miscellaneous: Encyclopedia II - Feng Shui - Overview
Traditional ("classical," "authentic") feng shui is a Chinese ethnoscience that addresses the design and layout of cities, villages, dwellings, and buildings. The construction of graves and tombs also includes feng shui, but the rules for dwellings differ from those applied to "yin houses" (houses of the dead). Feng shui was labeled geomancy by 19th-century Christian missionaries to China; however, geomancy and feng shui differ widely in their scope, aims, and means. The name Feng Shui literally means "Wind and Water". The Book of Burial says "The Qi disperses with the Wind and collects on the ...

| | | | Feng Shui - Miscellaneous: Encyclopedia II - Feng Shui - Feng Shui in More Recent Times During the early 1800s feng shui was introduced to the U.S. with the first Chinese immigrants. The notorious Four Corners section of New York, which was then a Chinese ghetto, featured gambling houses and other structures that incorporated feng shui, as did the Chinatowns in San Francisco and Los Angeles.

| | | | Feng Shui - Miscellaneous: Encyclopedia II - Feng Shui - Archaeology In 1978 researchers presented evidence at a Zhouyi conference that the Hetu and Luoshu, the two most-recognizable diagrams related to feng shui, are actually 3-D star maps. The estimated date for the astronomy is at least 6000 BCE. A page in "The Astronomical Phenomena" (Tien Yuan Fa Wei) compiled by Bao Yunlong in the 13th century also shows the Luoshu as a star diagram.

| | | | Feng Shui - Miscellaneous: Encyclopedia II - Feng Shui - Postmodernism The famous Bank of China Tower on Hong Kong Island, a blade-like design by I.M. Pei (not a feng shui adept), was supposedly a deliberate curse upon the Government House and the former British administration. No updated version of this fable exists to explain effects on the current occupants.
In fact, the Citigroup building which sits right next to the Bank of China Tower is a direct target of its blade like design, in theory severing all the good chi. The architects of the Citigroup building therefore designed it with a curved facade in order to shield and deflect the negative elements eminating f ...
