What is Feng Shui?
Feng Shui, "wind & water" is the art of harmonizing the placement of man made structures in
nature. It is a blend of astrology, design and eastern philosophy rooted in the ancient Chinese belief that our lives and destinies are
interwoven with the workings of nature and the universe. By altering the placement of objects in our environments (Feng Shui), we alter
our destinies. The positioning of objects in our home and work environments can have far reaching implications on our health, careers,
relationships, finances and more. The practice of Feng Shui ensures positive and helpful influences in any environment.
Feng Shui design, placement, clearing for home & business using universal, ancient principles for:
planning renovations or new construction
choosing new property locations or selling your home or business
improving career, finances, health, relationships, creativity,
travel, focus and organization

Feng Shui Fundamentals -
Philosophy, Astrology & Design
In Chinese philosophy the Earth contains a lifeforce that flows through and around every person, object and
space. How that life force is utilized can affect all aspects of an individual's life, health, happiness, prosperity and more. Feng
Shui looks at how life force energies flow over land or through a room or building.
Good or positive energy forces are called
Chi, and are believed to travel in irregular and often unpredictable paths. Bad or negative energy is known as
Sha and travels in straight lines. The goal of Feng Shui is to maximize the Chi energy and dissipate the Sha energy in any given
location. Improving the flow of Chi energy in any environment enhances a person's health, happiness, fortune, marriage, career, etc. Feng
Shui focuses on 8 aspects of life that according to Chinese philosophy are essential for an individual to possess in order to live in harmony with
nature and the universe. These aspects are:
Wealth & Power
Fame
Marriage & Partnerships
Children & The Future
Helpful People & Travel
Career
Knowledge
Family & Health
These important facets of life are represented in Feng Shui by the 8 sided figure call the
bagua, which is derived from the well known Chinese "Book of Changes" - the I-Ching.
Feng Shui employs other elements of eastern philosophy and Chinese astrology as well. The five elements
of nature are used along with the colors that are associated with them in order to alter/enhance the flow of Chi energy in an environment.
Astrology in particular allows a Feng Shui expert to discern the element and colors affiliated with a client based on their Chinese zodiac
sign. Understanding the color schemes and elements that are most beneficial to Feng Shui client influences to the design aspects of Feng
Shui.
Along with Colors there are many different objects and furnishings that represent the 5 elements of nature and Feng
Shui experts may suggest that a client place the such items in their environments. Objects such as fountains, wind chimes, bamboo flutes,
crystals, mirrors and a variety of other items influence the energy flow in an environment (within a room, building or as part of a landscape)
depending on where they are placed. Such items and their placement are often referred to as "cures". It is the role of the Feng
Shui expert to instruct the client as to where to place these items so that they will have the most positive influences in any location.
Everyday Feng Shui Design
The practice of Feng Shui may seem very new to the western world but it has been in use in America and other
Western countries for quite some time. Chinese and Japanese-Americans have been employing the use of this age old art for as long as they've
been arriving in the west. Chinese restaurants of every style and rating are Feng Shui sites as well as most other Chinese and Japanese
owned and operated businesses and private residences. Many Architecture and Design agencies use Feng Shui in designing buildings and
rooms as do Real Estate firms. Health practitioners have even taken to practicing Feng Shui as it is observed that a harmonious/balanced
atmosphere facilitates the healing process of patients. Feng Shui is being practiced all around us on a daily basis and by employing the
art of Feng Shui in our work and home environments, we create even more harmony and prosperity that effects us, our families, friends and
co-workers.

A Testimonial
HOW FENG SHUI CHANGED MY LIFE
August 1997 was my first contact with Micheley Angelina. My life needed some
improvements at that time; I was 44 years old, divorced and full of debts.
I found Micheley’s Feng Shui site on the internet. Working long distance, she
did the Feng Shui study, adjustments and cures on my apartment on South Beach.
We finish all the changes and within the end of that month., I immediately
noticed a difference. I had been loking for a career change and move and we did
work for that.
First week of September the same year (1997) I was in NYC with a new job.
Micheley did Feng Shui on my second apartment with focus on finding a good
marriage relationship. On September next year (1998) I start dating somebody
very special. After a year (September 1999) we moved in together. I call
Micheley again and this time she came to see me in person. I met her for the
first time and she spent time explaining our couple astrology Feng Shui aspects
together. She showed me the right way to place the objects of cure such as
crystals/mirrors/traveling horses and pictures. She then did the spiritual
cures with prayers and other appropriate tools for my situation.. It was a day
well spent for I understood the needs of the man I loved in a whole new way.
After 3 years I got married and we moved back to Miami Beach. One more time I
requested her services to be sure that I have the chi flowing right, the colors
and other aspects for dealing with any deficit areas in my new place. I am very
happy now and believe that Feng Shui played a part in moving my life to where
it is now.
Thank you very much Micheley, for helping me change my life.
