Do you believe in feng-shui? I believe this is started by the Chinese. But I am also curious to find out if the non-Chinese believes in this too. Or the Chinese who are born & grew up in the West or maybe countries like Philippines, Indonesia, where Chinese is a minority. I'd like to hear your view please. (^_^)

Yes, When I go into a room, I feel uneasy that is probably due to feng sui problem.

Every time I got out with my parents riding in the new Toyota Sienna, they always listen to a Chinese radio station and hear this guy talk about feng shui all the time. He's very well know in San Francisco to chinese folks. I know some friends who are no Chinese that believes in Feng Shui too.

You are right! Apparently, Fengshui is not a superstition, but studied & proven. But I find it hard to swallow that the fengshui masters can actually tell you how to design your house and place the furniture etc! What are interior designers for then??

I'm Chinese but I don't believe Feng Shui that much. Once, I followed a Feng Shui tip that should have given us more luck but it had the opposite effect. My parents know a bunch of people who really believes in it.

You guys might have came across a feng shui scammer. There are a lot of them. Should go for well known ones with testimonials.

Yes, I am not Chinese but belive in feng shui and have read a bit into it. It is, I feel, some scientific and some perhaps superstition. I have heard that a house can be built in such a way as to cause divorces! It has to do with very minor things that subtly annoy you and can build up frustration over the years. Also, furniture can be situated in a room which could make it feel either comfortable or uncomfortable. It does make sense, too. Haven't you ever rearranged furniture, sat down, and said "no, something's not right". And didn't know quite what it was? If you look back at it, you'll probably find a good reason as to why you felt that way.
