Through Feng Shui, the correct placement and arrangement of objects representing these elements balances and optimizes the harmonious flow of qi [life force], so as to affect personal relationships, careers, wealth, and ultimately, health. Ultimately, Feng Shui can mean different things to different people. But please note that it does not contradict any religious, cultural or traditional beliefs. Color: Blue.
