Feng Shui of the Emperors
From the Forbidden City to imperial tombs, classical Feng Shui guided site selection, orientation, and spatial hierarchy. These choices balanced mountains and water (龍脈與水口) to cultivate longevity, prosperity, and protection.
Core Imperial Principles You Can Apply
- Command Position: Place your main seat or bed so you can see the entry without lining up directly with it.
- Backing & Support: A solid wall or high headboard behind you symbolises the “mountain” that supports status and health.
- Balanced Elements: Use wood for growth, fire for recognition, earth for stability, metal for clarity, and water for flow—without overusing any one element.
Modern Translations
In homes, we mirror imperial layouts by giving the entrance clear Qi flow, placing key rooms in supportive zones, and ensuring pathways are open yet contained. Thoughtful lighting, proportion, and material choices keep Qi moving smoothly.
