Unite 5 Feng shui



Many people and cultures have their superstitions or beliefs; looking for protection, good luck, healf and power.

I'm going to make mention of some common superstitions in Dominican Republic, after to start with the topic.
- People think that if a new born doesn't have an azabache could be victim of "mal de ojo".
- If you eat with your finguers You could get fat.
- If You deny something to a pregnant You could get an orzuelo.
- If stomp salt you could fall Into bad luck.
- If save a dollar in your wallet You could have good look.

In other way, Feng shui Is a big superstition in China and is winning a wide popularity over the world such as in USA, Canadá and Europa.

Feng shui means "wind" and "water".  Is an ancient form of alining things in the enviroment to create harmony and good look, as health, happiness and fortune. The theory is that there is an invisible life force or energy, called ch'i  ("chee"), that circulate through all things rooms, buildings, peoples, hills, rivers and power lines.

Some recomendations about Feng shui practice are:
- not to seat with the back to the door
- Put a acuarion in the entrance of the building, simbolizing abundance.
- The color red in the southern part of a room could bring You good fortune.

In adition, in those countries where the Feng shui is practiced designer are using the principles of this chinese practice to encrease the value of an apartment.
