Introduction
Feng Shui is often misunderstood as superstition, mystical belief, or luck manipulation.
Historically, however, Feng Shui developed as a traditional East Asian system for observing relationships between human beings and their environments.
Rather than focusing only on symbolic objects or rituals, Feng Shui explored broader ideas such as:
- spatial balance

Today, many Feng Shui concepts can also be discussed through modern perspectives including:
