The water in geomantic omen generally refers to the water outside the house. For example, in ancient times, people chose houses facing the mountains and facing the water. In a small environment, a pond is set in front of the house to form a feng shui pattern. Modern geomantic theory introduces water into the microscopic field, that is, another geomantic pattern is set inside the house, such as pumping water by electricity to form a water cycle, such as rockeries, fish ponds, micro fountains, etc. By changing the geomantic layout in the house, a suitable living effect can be achieved.
Generally speaking, the typical feng shui pattern is the outside of the house, facing the water, then the side and finally the back.
