Feng Shui in the Bible
Genesis 1:2
A core part of recognizing references to biblical
Feng Shui is knowing that Feng Shui, literally translated from Chinese, means "Wind over Water". In Hebrew,
Wind is ruach (the ch is pronounced gutteraly, by raising the tongue to the roof of the mouth and forcing air over it) which also means breath and spirit, as in the living spirit which resides in each of us. It is important to ask questions like, "What are they really saying there?" "What does that
really mean?" and others which come to you. Doing that you will find so much more than a surface reading will be able to show. With that in mind, let's look at Genesis 1:2:
"Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit (breath, wind) of God was hovering over the waters."
God was placing his Spirit (the same Hebrew word as for wind and breath) over the "surface of the deep" (water) to clear the earth, making it ready for creation. What comes in the beginning of the Bible is the foundation for all else it contains.
Genesis 7:24 to 8:3
Think the above is coincidence? Think again. Things didn't go exactly the way God wanted and along comes Noah. God commanded Noah to build the ark and preserve life as we know it while God flooded the earth.
"The water prevailed upon the earth one hundred and fifty days. But God remembered Noah and all the beasts and all the cattle that were with him in the ark; and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the water subsided. Also the fountains of the deep and the floodgates of the sky were closed, and the rain from the sky was restrained; and the water receded steadily from the earth, and at the end of one hundred and fifty days the water decreased."
Once again God used the power of wind over water to cleanse the earth.
Leviticus 14: 49-53
The Bible has its own version
of space clearing to remove or prevent the reappearance of unwanted
forces. For example, in relation to houses, refer to Leviticus chapter 14: 49-53:
"And he shall take to cleanse the house two birds, cedar-wood, scarlet, and
hyssop. And he shall slaughter one of
the birds in an earthen vase over running water. And he shall
take the cedar-wood, and the hyssop, and the scarlet,
and the living bird, and he shall dip them in the blood of the
slaughtered bird, and in the running water, and sprinkle the house seven
times. And he shall cleanse the house with the blood of the
bird, and with the running water, and with the living bird, and
with the cedar-wood, and with the scarlet. But he shall let go the living bird
out of the city into the open field; so shall he
make atonement for the house; and it shall be clean."
Having read this Biblical ceremony, some background on Feng Shui might help you make the connection. Some elements of Feng Shui (and space clearing in general)
are for elevating energy, which is often done by
using one of a number of substances along with sacred prayer in ceremony. Common
substances used are rice (from the plant realm) and a certain very
strong liqueur with a particular red mineral mixed in it. Red (crimson)
is a very common color used in Feng Shui cures, as it
is the color of blood, the thing that carries oxygen and other life-giving nutrients throughout
the bodies of most living creatures, and represents chi, or life-force.
(Actual animal sacrifices are not used in modern Feng Shui.)
The instructions given for this Biblical ceremony echo the exterior chi adjustment techniques from the Feng Shui tradition. The bird, which soars with the wind, is sacrificed over running water: wind over water.
There are undoubtedly more references to Feng Shui in the bible plus the Koran and other sacred texts. If anyone knows the original languages or is into decoding the bible with the CD ROM currently available, or any other method, it would be
interesting to know if wind over water, or wind water show up with a search. If
you do a search of the Bible or any other ancient
sacred text, I would appreciate being contacted with your results.

Some clients' comments:
"Companioned with
sunlit water
The crystal has opened
new vistas to health"
SS (84 years wise)
"The beginning for me was watching my friend since she got her first Life
Chi Crystal. As I watched her change, I became curious about crystals in
general and these crystals in particular. When I heard you were coming to
town I became interested in seeing the Crystals, and when you were here
I got a few. I started wearing one immediately. I call it my pocket pal.
The words which express what happened to me are that I feel like I am on
that super fast Japanese bullet train, the good in my life has accelerated.
I am having more clarity and more strength of purpose and more not only
belief in myself, but belief in Spirit and recognizing the support of Spirit.
Another thing is it has opened up many new vistas and opportunities like I
quite my job as a receptionist and have a new focus for my life which is
to keep opening to my own deepest purpose. As a part of that many
opportunities have opened up such as I have started teaching, and developing
seminars, am working on my own small business plan and am more in touch with
Spirit. The other part is all about being grateful. I guess what has happened
is it has livened up my heart. My heart feels warmer, more protected, freely
giving and energized. I am believing in big possibilities for myself. I am
open more to planetary vision."
Dannelle of Serene Solutions in California
"The crystal you gave me for my water has
helped so much just by changing the taste and it seems to quench my thirst
better. Being I'm drinking 3-4 liters of water per day it helps to know
it's working with my own chi and realigning the mineral components in the
water."
Heidi Perry
"There has been a quickening
in my life since I got my Crystal. It has supported me. I am
enjoying being with myself more than ever. My health has improved.
My life has become a greater adventure than ever before."
AF
"I've been dowsing, or attempting to, with the pendulum for about 15
years, but always got confused before, so it was an on-and-off thing, mostly off.
After we got the special crystal I just felt like getting out the pendulum, (praying
for guidance from Christ, my higher self, and my guardian angel), and asking about
some questions I've had about diet. It worked well, much better than ever before for
me, with answers that were consistent and helpful. I've kept on using the pendulum
to choose each meal, and supplements and amounts. Then some urgent health issues
came up and the guidance-via-pendulum helped me through those. And yesterday I used
it to successfully fend off an impending migraine by using the guidance which said
to take extraordinary doses of an herb tea that I normally use in small amounts. It
worked! No migraine. (This is major, because for me a migraine is total body misery
and it pretty much stops all activity beyond mere survival.)"
Linda from Mt. Shasta, CA
"Life Chi Crystals are
synergistically sound and deeply profound. My home office is a
sanctuary thanks to these creations."
I.A.H. in Mexico
...we were having some problems getting things to flow: funding was short, employees weren't working out, paper work was backing up... In the past year, our organizations problems seem to have melted away. We have enough funding to put some reserve away for a rainy day. We were able to remodel the library and buy hundreds of new books because we received a big grant last February (just after the crystals arrived). We heave even been able to increase staff hours and start some interesting new programs this year. How Quantum Feng Shui works is mysterious to me, but I can tell you that I will not be moving those crystals soon. they are doing their job so we can do ours.
