Meet Feng Shui Master Teacher James Jay9:29
Master Feng Shui Practitioner and Teacher James Jay started his journey in Buddhism as a very young man. Being attracted to the zen feeling of the Buddhist temples led him to study Interior Design so he could create that same feeling in his own home. The study of environments eventually led him to the ancient practice of Feng Shui and to Grandmaster Lin Yun's temple, where he studied for 25 years.
The Many Schools of Feng Shui: Orgins and History7:05
In this video James shares the dramatic history of the development of the practice of Feng Shui from 5,000 years ago. With many different environments in the massive expanse of China, many schools of Feng Shui developed.

What are we learning today? A master class on the Feng Shui BaGua with James!4:37
The most important tool in Feng Shui is the Bagua, the combination of yin and yang energy. Learn how the BaGua encompasses and encapsulates everything we do in Feng Shui across all the many schools of this practice.

As a Practitioner or someone who wants to delve into the foundation of Feng Shui at it's roots, you must know the BaGua inside and out.

The Feng Shui Bagua: Yin and Yang Energy5:46
James shares with us a clear and concise definition of the BaGua, a system of eight different combinations of yin and yang energy. He'll guide us through and introduce us to those yin and yang energies, and to the famous Tai Gee (often called Tai Chi) symbol.
Introducing the Trigrams5:29
When the yin and yang energies in the Tai Gee needed to be represented in a spacial fashion, they developed a line system of a solid line for yang and a dashed line for yin. This is the foundation of the creation of the Trigrams. You will also learn how to say each Trigram in the Pinyon pronunciation.

The Pre Heaven Bagua, the Trigrams & Bagua Mirrors for Balancing Energy17:19
The Pre Heaven BaGua represents the primordial energies before becoming matter; perfect spiritual energy. Often called the BaGua of Time, it is a perfectly balanced system of energy that moves in a cyclical and systematic manner.

The Pre Heaven BaGua is used as a Feng Shui cure on the Feng Shui BaGua mirror. Learn why and how this BaGua used on a mirror positively affects your space.
The Post Heaven BaGua and the intricasies of the Trigrams2:11
The Post Heaven BaGua is the BaGua of space where energy has already been manifested into matter. It is the BaGua Feng Shui practitioners use to analyze a space because it is combined with the five elements, thus representing the physical world.

James teaches us how the BaGua came into being (approximately 5,000 years ago), why it is so important, especially if you are a Feng Shui Practitioner, and how it is used in modern Feng Shui.

From the concept of the polarity of Yin and Yang, through the development of the Eight Trigrams and the Five Elements, James weaves a thoroughly engaging and insightful presentation.
