The Significance, Application and Development of Fengshui Culture in China

1. The significance, application and development of China's geomantic culture: Geomantic omen is a traditional culture in China, and it is a knowledge involving skills and digital application. Geomantic omen, architecture and gardens are the three pillars of ancient architectural theory. Throughout the ages, many people have applied geomantic knowledge in architectural design, site selection and planning. The application of geomantic omen can be seen in most existing ancient town buildings, gardens, houses and tombs in China.

2. Harmony of the five elements brings good luck: Everything in the universe is composed of five elements: gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and there is a relationship of mutual development and mutual resistance. The method of seeking good fortune and avoiding evil in geomantic omen is to use the five elements to determine the position, orientation and layout of the building, so that the building and the five elements can cooperate with each other to achieve harmonious development and bring good luck to users.

3. The development of geomantic omen is far overseas: the knowledge of geomantic omen has a long history and profound theoretical foundation and applied knowledge, which is worth further study and development by Chinese people.

4. Far-reaching impact on culture: Feng Shui culture has a far-reaching impact on the lives of overseas people and community development, including temple buildings and ceremonies. Kannonji, located in Troblanche Drive, is the best example of the combination of feng shui and temples in China.

5. Practical value of natural science: China geomantic omen is respected not only by China people, but also by foreigners. Japanese scholar Guo believes that Feng Shui in China is a comprehensive natural science, which combines the essence of geography, meteorology, ecology, landscape architecture, planning and architecture. In his book Streets Built by China People, Guo said: The origin of geomantic omen is considered to be related to the comprehensive environmental planning and design function in ancient China. It may be a science that begins with the interpretation and determination of natural images. It is about natural geology, topography and landscape; Forms of wind, clouds and rain; The climate change of the four seasons, such as the color of the sky, and the careful and profound observation and research on the water environment are also the understanding and intuitive power of natural phenomena. ..... So, don't reject Feng Shui as pure superstition. I believe that China's geomantic culture will continue to develop and improve.
