Feng (meaning wind) Shui (water) principles actually originated from I-Ching (or Yi-Ching 易經), i.e. the "Book of Changes". It describes the relationships (corelativity concept) and harmonies amongst the heaven, earth and the mankind. Its concept is also supported by the modern physics sciences of Corelativity & Principle of Chaos.
In Chinese Feng Shui concepts, all the object (be it tangible or intangible) or energy (E) as well as the landscapes can be categorized into the Five Elements: namely Water, Wood, Fire, Earth and Metal. Each of the elements has its Productive and Destructive effects to the other four elements. The interaction of these elements result into auspicious or inauspicious effects to the relevant mankind, family member and the environment.
A mastery Feng Shui practitioner MUST have a very strong knowledge in traditional Feng Shui and Yi-Jing (The Book of Changes) theories. Without in-depth knowledge of Yi-Jing, one cannot fully understand Feng Shui because the best Feng Shui effects are actually derived from the highest level of Yi-Jing!
