About This Quote

The original meaning of feng shui is 'wind and water' in Chinese. It literally means 'wind and water' when translated into English, though the word wind has been changed into air. The word 'water' has been deleted to avoid confusion with the translation, but I think that it would be better for this context to retain the original meaning of the word 'water.' The original definition explains that feng shui is all about using your surroundings to achieve harmony. The idea is that if you arrange things in certain ways, they'll make you feel more at ease and make your life easier. It would make sense to say that creative people are the ones who create things like furniture and plants and stuff in order to make your life easier.
