Feng Shui has its roots in the philosophy of Yin and Yang, which also happens to have some cross-over with Taoism. There is no God in Feng Shui, no spirits in Feng Shui...just the natural environment.Many theories and practices relating to Chinese medicine, martial arts, health, religion -- almost all are premised on the backbone principles of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. So while Ba Gua does have some application in Taoism, it is MATHEMATICAL MODEL used to calculate and ascertain different types of energy patterns in Feng Shui.
Feng Shui is culturally neutral, non-religious in nature and certainly does not require you to compromise your priciples or faith. Using Feng Shui is about benefiting yourself, helping yourself and making use of the natural energies that already exist in nature; not changing or compromising your beliefs in God. As long as we keep religion and Feng Shui separate, each can co-exit peacefully in our life.
The word 'SCIENCE' comes from the Latin word 'scientia' which means 'knowledge' - any systematic field of study or the knowledge gained from it.
The device to measure 'Qi' is the Solar and Lunar Calendars, the Luo Pan and observation skills - i.e. the use of one's eyes to study and feel the environment.
