It's not that western countries don't believe in Feng Shui, but that their names are different from ours. They call Feng Shui "environmental psychology". They also admit that the environment will affect us, but they think it is psychological. Feng Shui consciousness is not unique to China people, but exists in any nation and culture. This cultural phenomenon is collectively called land occupation.

The consciousness of geomantic omen is not unique to China people, but exists in any nation and culture, but has different expressions because of different living environment, language and lifestyle. This cultural phenomenon is collectively called geography.

Whether it is the location of the Egyptian Pharaoh's mausoleum, the orientation of the pyramids in Mayan culture, or the choice of American Indians' secluded caves, human beings have similar environmental explanations and operation modes, all of which are aimed at positioning themselves on the vast land in order to establish a harmonious relationship between heaven and earth, man and God.

China has the oldest agricultural civilization in the world, and China's culture is most closely related to the land. Therefore, China's geomantic omen bears a stronger imprint of the land and its natural relationship, thus emphasizing "wind" and "water", which are the two most critical natural processes for agricultural production and life; It is precisely because of the dependence of farming civilization on the land and the need to shelter the environment that "Peach Blossom Garden" has become the ideal geomantic omen in China culture.

Feng Shui is a folk culture born and bred in China.

It flourished in the Sui and Tang Dynasties and reached its peak in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is generally believed that geomantic omen originated in cave areas in the early loess plateau, and then gradually spread to the whole country. In the late Tang Dynasty, it began to spread to the Korean Peninsula and Japan, and then to Southeast Asian countries.

/kloc-in the 0/9th century, it was spread to Britain and other western countries by missionaries. It should be said that Feng Shui is a native folk culture in China, and countries and regions in the Han cultural circle have been influenced by Feng Shui culture.
