How should a professional Feng Shui master make appointments?

There is no doubt that Feng Shui is a practical knowledge that guides people to seek good luck and avoid bad luck when choosing and decorating their homes or offices. However, Feng Shui has always been obscure and difficult to understand, and it is not easy to learn it. Not to mention ordinary people, even the masters in this field have vastly different levels of skill, let alone those fake masters who are just trying to make a fool of themselves. Therefore, it is really a lot of trouble for us to hire a qualified Feng Shui practitioner before buying and renovating a house. Here are some principled considerations and suggestions for choosing a practitioner. Maybe you can use them as a reference when the time comes:

1. Since Feng Shui is a science, it has its own theories and principles. , is not the same thing as ordinary traditional folk customs, and has nothing to do with witchcraft that talks about gods and gods and only talks about good and bad without making sense.

2. Tell me, as a user, how do I understand the principles of Feng Shui? Of course you don’t understand the specific principles of Feng Shui, but a Feng Shui master who really understands it will usually tell you some basic theories in the process of judging whether Feng Shui is good or bad. I will tell you the most basic theory of Feng Shui now, which can also be used as a basis for judging the level of the Feng Shui master and even its authenticity.

Feng Shui is roughly composed of two parts: one is the situation, that is, the visible and tangible material things such as mountains and rivers, terrain, distance and height, etc. The theory is relatively simple and intuitive, and practitioners have always The views are relatively consistent, and it is easy for ordinary people to understand and accept them; the second is Liqi, which is now popularly called Xuankong Fengshui. It is esoteric and obscure and requires a solid foundation of Chinese studies, so scholars have always mastered this. Now the so-called masters in the market are more concerned about it. The opinions are different, even polar opposites, and the industry's lack of communication is reflected in this. I will focus on it today. The source of the basic principles of Feng Shui and regulating qi is nothing but the foundation of Yixue, namely yin and yang, five elements, eight trigrams, etc. The so-called "if you don't learn Yi, there is no Fengshui". There are two major concepts in Feng Shui: one is the building orientation (location and orientation), and the other is the construction start time. Without one of these two concepts, there is no real "Feng Shui".

Let’s talk about the orientation first. There is a Feng Shui term: wealth depends on the landscape, and the location determines good and bad luck. It can be seen that the good and bad luck of Feng Shui depends on the direction, and the most important thing is the direction of the house. The so-called "if the direction is slightly different, wealth will disappear" means that the direction is the key to Feng Shui. If the direction is correct, it can at least ensure safety, and only after safety can we talk about wealth. In Feng Shui, 360 degrees are divided into 24 mountain directions, that is, 15 degrees is a mountain direction. Buildings in the same location will have different good and bad luck depending on the mountain direction. Nowadays, many people on the Internet talk about good and bad luck. For example, if there is a mountain behind and a pond in front, it is auspicious. It is said that you are prosperous and prosperous, or conversely, it is not credible to say that you are unlucky and that is unlucky. Unless it is a coincidence, it is at best. Fast food entertainment Feng Shui cannot be taken seriously. You need to ask clearly what direction your house is in (note that you need a master to tell you the exact degree after setting up a compass, because about half of the directions in a circle are incorrect, and many half-razion masters know this on this point. A qualified Feng Shui master will have clear graphic signs and instructions. As long as the explanation is reasonable and well-founded, the Feng Shui solution and layout suggestions he gives you should be credible. , otherwise you’d better take it easy.

Furthermore, time. A building with the same orientation but built at different times will have different fortunes and misfortunes. Of course, this time refers to a certain period of time, which follows the law of change every 20 years, which is the theory of the Three Yuans and Nine Movements of the Feng Shui Xuan Kong Theory. Now we are in the Eight Yuan Yuan Theory of the 2004-2023 period, as mentioned before The past is the Seventh Luck, the future is the Ninth Luck, and so on. In a word, if the above-mentioned concepts of orientation and time, as well as the landscape environment within a certain distance around your house, the good and bad luck of the internal structure, and the layout suggestions for pursuing good luck and avoiding bad luck are well-founded and clearly stated, you can generally agree. On the other hand, if a certain master does not know the location or the time of groundbreaking, but can talk endlessly about good and bad luck, and the basis of his theory is unreliable or even useless, you'd better not invite him, in case he does. , you should quickly pay him some travel expenses and ask him to run away. It's either a loophole or a trick to deceive people.

3. Master’s inheritance and master’s resume. Feng Shui is a traditional technique that pays great attention to a formal and reliable teacher-student relationship. It is almost impossible to become proficient in Feng Shui by yourself, and the results and effects of Feng Shui between those who are half-experienced and those who are relatively proficient in Feng Shui can sometimes be very different. You must know that asking someone to do Feng Shui is not about how much money you spend. The purpose is to achieve the real effect of attracting good luck and avoiding bad luck.

Feng shui masters know this very well, so most of them have a magical resume, which may be passed down from their ancestors for eight lifetimes, or passed down by monks and Taoists. They find the logos of famous Chinese and foreign companies and hang them online, and then they become the master's "customers" ”, coupled with the eye-catching many dazzling certificates and awards, it has become a major spectacle in the Feng Shui world today. In fact, there is often a lot of water in it, including those who are boasting and making up stories. On this point, I hope you can open your eyes when necessary. The so-called magic must be deceitful. Now that the author has reminded me, it is not a technical job. You only need to be sensible enough to use common sense and logic to infer, or directly conduct research in person. Those who know the truth, it is really inconvenient for me to say more. Otherwise, those who know me will say that I am worried, and those who do not know will tell me what I want. I will offend a large group of masters and small masters, let alone offend them.

4. Feng Shui instruments. Under special circumstances, Feng Shui survey requires the use of special instruments to attract good luck or avoid bad luck. Usually, it is necessary to turn on a light, which is the so-called "magical instrument". Under normal circumstances, it only plays a supporting role as the icing on the cake or provides help in times of need, and cannot play a decisive role in good or bad luck. Since it is called special, it also means that you don't need to use it casually. There are rarely more than three or four magic weapons. Otherwise, your home's feng shui will be very bad and you will need to choose another place to live. However, the Feng Shui magic weapon has been artificially exaggerated and promoted as a panacea by some businessmen and pseudo-masters, hoping that people will use it for special purposes. The asking price for asking the master to look at Feng Shui is not high, but the master tells you to put a "immediately ennobled lord" (the shape of a monkey riding on a horse) to the east to get promoted, to put a feng shui wheel to the west to make a fortune, to avoid evil spirits and to ward off evil spirits, and to encourage children with a unicorn. , a few nonsensical words are just a show off of Feng Shui. There are ten or eight so-called magical instruments, and their prices are high. Such a master is basically a person who is not familiar with Feng Shui but is good at building a business ladder. The author calls him a profiteer with the name of Feng Shui master. He will deceive you without any discussion.

After reading the above suggestions, someone asked: Are you not a Feng Shui master yourself? Are you also one of those who can be suspected? certainly! I am also in the origin of Feng Shui, how can I be spared? If you regard hiring someone to survey Feng Shui as a special expense, please spend it wisely.
