Course Detailing:

Feng Shui, often perceived as a mere aesthetic discipline, delves far deeper. At its core, it's a fusion of two pivotal Chinese astrological systems - Ba Tzu (the "eight words" or "four pillars") and Jyo Hsing (the "nine stars" or "study of chi"). Traditionally, implementing Feng Shui demanded familiarity with the Chinese lunar calendar and Chinese characters, barriers for those unfamiliar with the language.

This course revolutionizes traditional teaching methods, offering a pragmatic approach. It strips away linguistic and cultural complexities, making Feng Shui universally accessible. With a comprehensive and logical structure, the teachings pave the way for students to incorporate Feng Shui seamlessly into their lives.

Misconceptions abound in the realm of Feng Shui, with claims of multiple schools and methods. In reality, authentic Feng Shui is a singular school rooted in ancient Taoist traditions. By harnessing a blend of Chinese astrology, compass techniques, divining methods, and form methods, Feng Shui becomes a universal tool for harmony and balance.

Through this course, primarily focusing on the powerful nine-star astrology, students gain actionable insights into restructuring their environments for enhanced harmony and vitality. Enroll today and step into a world where ancient wisdom meets modern life, guiding you towards a balanced and harmonious existence.
