 Traditional Feng Shui is still considered important in some segments of
modern
Chinese culture, especially Malaysia, Hong Kong
and Taiwan. Since the mid-20th
century, it has been illegal in the People's Republic of China because of the
Cultural Revolution that set about destroying most of the old culture of
China. It has been kept alive in books and practitioners in Taiwan and Hong
Kong. In the 1960s, Feng Shui was introduced in the West. Regardless of the
country of practice, East or West, businesses typically use Feng Shui to
increase sales and boost morale. Homeowners have come to use Feng Shui in an
attempt to bring peace and harmony to their surroundings.
Feng Shui promotes the searching for places where
Qi forms or
accumulates as these places are perfect to live happy, prosperous, successful
lives. In Feng Shui winds are noted as being bad as they scatter Qi rater
than accumulate it, so when searching for a site bypass any that are wind
swept.
