For a beginner reading about Feng Shui, it can be quite confusing and the more you research about it on the internet or books, it gets even more confusing. There are many different methods of Feng Shui. Some call it Schools of Feng Shui. There are some schools which are very easy to follow and apply, whereas some are very advanced and require a master to fully comprehend the techniques. Feng Shui originated in China and have been tested and applied for thousands of years ago.
- Yin Feng Shui: Also known as the San He School, it’s the most ancient of all Feng Shui and was used by masters in China for burials grounds. This type of Feng Shui took years to yield its result. For this reason, Yin Feng Shui is not popular for residential or commercial spaces.
- Form School of Feng Shui: this is one of the oldest schools of Feng Shui, which was practised thousands of years ago. It does not require a magnetic compass but it studies the land forms for Qi patterns and includes yin and yang component. But these days, Form school is combined with other schools to get better and effective results.
- Black Hat Tantric Feng Shui: Started in 1986 by Thomas Lin Yun. He simplified Feng Shui and introduced it in the western world with the Bagua System, which is largely based on symbolism. It is a very simple system to follow and mostly relies on positive mind and use of decorative enhancers for its cures. However, this system does not consider time nor magnetic direction (space).
- The compass school: As the name suggests, it uses the compass reading and few Feng Shui techniques and formulas. The compass school uses the eight trigrams to demarcate the fortunate and unfortunate sections of the building which also causes lot of confusion as according to this school, there are four auspicious sectors and four inauspicious area of the building, which is seems really impractical. This system does not consider Time factor into its reading.
Classical Feng Shui: Traditional Feng Shui method also known as Xuan Gong Schools (Time and Space). This is one of the most powerful and long-lasting methods of Feng Shui. Xuan Gong da Gua (Trigram method), which consist of analysis of the environment and Xuan Kong Fei Xing also referred to as the Flying Stars. The date of construction and date of birth of the occupants are both taken into consideration and charts are prepared accordingly, to give better and accurate remedies, which are extremely beneficial.

Many people believe that if you are getting a Feng Shui audit, that things will appear magically. What they do not know, is that there are three types of Luck
- Heaven Luck: Heaven luck is fixed by birth and cannot be changed by humans, it determines when you are born, the country we take birth in and also the family we are born into.
- Man Luck: Man Luck is what we create by our action and the choices we make which includes education, morals, beliefs and hard work. It’s the ability to create an opportunity with the choices that come our way.
- Earth Luck: Earth Luck relates to our environment and this is the realm of Feng Shui. We cannot make major changes at a larger level but we can certainly create an environment that works positively in our favour and bring us good fortune.
