What is the Bagua Tool in Feng Shui?

Video Transcript

"So feng shui, what does that mean, what is that word? It literally means wind and water. Why does that make sense? Well, three or four thousand years ago in Tibet and China, when the farmers were deciding where to put down their roots and start their farm and live, they wanted a place where the mountain would block the wind from knocking their crops down, and where the water would feed their crops. So it's about your environment creating prosperity and abundance in your life. There is a tool that we have in feng shui, and it's called the bagua. That literally means eight sides, it's an octagon. I'm going to show it to you in a minute, but it's the map that we use for feng shui, to figure out what life area is in what part of your home, or the room. Because you can have an overall layout of the bagua, or you can have an individual layout in each room. This is the bagua, and each of the eight sides has a life area. One of them is career, we also have helpful people, we have children and creativity, relationship, fame or reputation, wealth, family, knowledge and spirituality, and in the middle we have health. The thought is, if all of these things are working in harmony, you will have harmony in your life on all levels."
