To unleash boundless energy in your life alongwith good luck, health and prosperity, you must consult the ancient science of feng shui. Feng shui is a powerful art to bring vitality and energy in ones life.

Which makes people wonder just how much of what they hear about feng shui could possibly be true. How can the art of arranging furniture and de-cluttering your home bring you luck and wealth? Persons do well to think about these things, because there are of course many out there who want to sell you so-called feng shui items, many of which have nothing to do with real feng shui.

Lets discuss Jade as an example. It is commonly used in Asian homes, so does it have those powers? How can feng shui and Jade change your life? Lets review how and why Feng shui and Jade came to be associated. And does it really work?

The History of Jade in Feng Shui

Theres no mistaking the fact that jade is a popular metal element in Asian cultures, particularly in China. In ancient times, jade was abundant, and because of its softness it could easily be shaped into various forms, unlike diamonds and other stones which had to be worked tirelessly in order to be cut and polished.

Using jade in feng shui applications did not happen overnight. True feng shui history does not include the use of jade and does not teach that there is anything special or magical about the element itself. However, the value of this element to the Chinese culture is unmistakable.

In the long history of the art and culture of the enormous Chinese empire, jade has always had a very special significance, roughly comparable with that of gold and diamonds in the West. Jade was used not only for the finest objects and cult figures, but also in grave furnishings for high-ranking members of the imperial family.

Jade and Feng Shui Come to the West

As Feng shui became popular in the western cultures, it cam to be highly misquoted. Scores of self proclaimed feng shui experts found good money by adulterating the teachings. The healing power of Jade and feng shui got them easy money from unsuspecting people. Jade was an important element in the Chinese culture, and feng shui was originated from china as well. For these unscrupulous feng shui experts, it was easy to make these two seem intertwined in history.

However, the real teachings of feng shui dont include anything special regarding jade. It is not considered lucky and doesnt have special healing powers. If someone were to introduce a metal element into a room, or wanted to add artwork for aesthetic purposes, then using jade in feng shui applications may work that way, but in reality, that is where this stones use stops.
