The traditional Chinese medicine
Traditional Feng Shui has a close connection with Traditional Chinese Medicine
In traditional Chinese Feng Shui, using the trigrams that we regularly work with through Flying Stars, house sectors, and so on, we can, among other things, identify the weaknesses of the human body. When a sector is missing in our living space, it means that the corresponding trigram is weakened.
Concretely in Traditional Feng Shui, how does this translate into our lives.
I’ll take as an example the Northwest (NW) sector of your house. If it is partially or completely missing, the NW sector corresponds to the Qian trigram. This trigram represents the father, but it also represents the head, bones, nose, and is associated with the metal element. This can indicate that the father is not very present at home—he may be occupied with work, sports, or community activities, spending a lot of time outside the house. From a health perspective, it can also mean that household members may experience issues such as persistent coughs or rheumatism. Similarly, if your environment attacks the South sector with what we call a poison arrow, it can cause eye problems or high blood pressure. The arrow weakens the Li trigram, which corresponds to the fire element.
Why consult a Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor ?
If you consult a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioner, they can help by working on specific meridians. The meridians are connected to the five elements of the human body. They are also linked to the trigrams of our homes. Since your house can weaken certain organs, the practitioner can strengthen these meridians. For the treatment to be most effective, it is best to have already had a traditional Feng Shui consultant assess your home. The consultant would have already addressed certain problems related to your house, making the effects of TCM much more durable. In the past, in China, TCM practitioners would say: “If the Feng Shui master has not visited your home, it will be difficult for me to treat you.” Among the TCM practitioners I know, Philippe Richard in Valence and Eric Simon in Reims have particularly interesting practices. Their perspective on TCM is unconventional. The discussions I have had with both of them have surprised me—their approach to TCM is holistic.
