Feng Shui explores the relationship between humans and their environment, believing the geographic surroundings and layouts have a profound impact on one’s destiny in fortune. In Chinese society the concept of Feng Shui is widely applied in areas such as architecture, urban planning, and tomb design.

One of the core principles of Chinese Feng Shui is the theory of Yin and Yang and the five Elements. According to this theory, the natural world is categorized into five elements: wood, fire, earth, water and metal. Feng Shui utilizes these elements to balance the energy of the environment hereby enhancing people’s well – being and fortune.
