1 OR 2 NOTES ON FACING, SITTING AND MING TANG

Multistory building

As a side note and for multi storied buildings like condominiums and apartment buildings, we need to also visualize how the Earth Qi – ascending – spiral and the Heaven Qi – descending – spiral coincide and become one and the same Qi.

The event of Earth Qi and Heaven Qi mingling, occurs just above the ground, at least for the part we are referring to in our Feng Shui use, because Heaven and Earth Qi mingle anywhere of course.

However, as much as Heaven and Earth Qi mingle below the earth surface, and however they may still mingle considerably above the earth surface, the Qi we would like to tap into in order for people to live happily, healthy and successfully would happen just above the surface of the earth.

The pressure immediately under the earth surface starts increasing to a point that we need to see that an underground environment is not fit for people.
The same is true for multi-storied built structures, as the higher we go, the less appropriate for human beings the Qi will be to live in or function.

Higher above the ground – because of increased Earth Qi – we will find a much more yin atmosphere, while deeper into the soil – because of increased Heaven Qi, any environment would have become too yang in order for people to function in a desirable way.

Water placements – actual H2O - are therefore not our first concern for high rise buildings.

In fact, the higher we go in a multi story building, the more Water we will already encounter, i.e. Virtual Water.

Look at this example. For the lower floors we may still refer to the building next to it as ‘Mountain’. All floors beyond this point will have virtual Water all around and lack support. We should take extra care of the Mountain chart.

Even in case it concerns a company building – provided it is a commercial premise – we should attend to the health and well-being of the people spending extensive periods of time in such buildings and make sure they have sufficient interior Mountain and a good flow of Qi. Otherwise, this is a ‘sick’ environment.

Back to our ship and its journey.
