Feng Shui: Is it a superstition or a crystallization of millennium cultural wisdom?
    When we talk about feng shui, many people equate it with "superstition". But in my opinion, feng shui is more like a shining pearl of traditional Chinese culture, which embodies the ancient people's profound understanding and respect for the relationship between nature and the universe.
    Firstly, we need to clarify a concept: China has never had the term 'science' since ancient times, it was introduced from the West in modern times. The Chinese people pay more attention to "culture" - Chinese medicine culture, Confucian culture, geomancy culture... Each culture is the accumulation of history and the crystallization of wisdom.
    Feng Shui, also known as geomancy, emphasizes the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature. In ancient times, feng shui masters predicted whether a place's aura was suitable for living or doing business by observing natural factors such as terrain, water flow, and wind direction. This observation and analysis is actually a scientific interpretation of the natural environment.For example, Feng Shui emphasizes the concept of "water gathering wealth". This does not mean that water itself can bring wealth, but rather that water flow can drive the flow of qi, making a place's qi more active. This understanding is similar to the theory of "energy field" in modern physics.
    For example, the principle of "facing north and south" in feng shui is also based on in-depth observation of the natural environment. The north is cold, the south is warm, and houses facing north and south can fully utilize sunlight, improve indoor temperature and lighting effects. This layout not only meets the human body's demand for a comfortable environment, but also reflects the ancient people's respect and utilization of the natural environment.
    Of course, feng shui is not just about simple geographical layout and environmental selection. It also involves multiple aspects such as psychology and culture. For example, a clean, tidy, and well decorated room can make people feel comfortable and happy, thereby improving work and life efficiency. This psychological influence is also an important component of feng shui culture.
   Some people say that Feng Shui is superstitious because it cannot be proven by scientific methods. But I have to say, science is not omnipotent. Some things, although cannot be explained by existing scientific theories, do not necessarily mean they are superstitious. Just like traditional Chinese medicine, although many treatment methods cannot be explained by modern medicine, they have significant therapeutic effects in clinical practice. Similarly, feng shui is no exception.
