Amazing Power of Balance: Feng Shui and the Dance of Yin & Yang

Yin and Yang represent two fundamental forces coexisting in the universe. Yin is passive, dark, and feminine, while Yang is active, light, and masculine. Rooted in Chinese philosophy, this concept describes the interconnected and complementary nature of opposites.

This duality — where balance creates harmony — forms the foundation of many branches of classical Chinese metaphysics. As an ancient saying goes: “All things carry Yin and embrace Yang, achieving harmony through the flow of Qi” (万物负阴而抱阳, 冲气以为和). But how can we practically achieve this balance, where the whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts?

At IFSC 2025, we will explore how Yin and Yang can be effectively integrated and harmonized across various disciplines of Chinese metaphysics.

Join us as we engage in this dynamic interaction — A dance of energy, equilibrium, and transformation.

“Yin & Yang in Our Living Spaces: Harmonizing the Energies of Home and Business for a Balanced Life

Our Home – Our Sanctuary: Balancing Yin & Yang Energies for a Fulfilling Life.

Finding solace within our living environment can seem like an elusive goal in a world that is so dynamic. The constant struggle between our personal and professional lives, often reflects the eternal opposition between yin and yang, contributing to our collective stress and discontent. Balance however is not only achievable, but essential for our well-being.

Our Office – Our Hunting Ground: Balancing Yin & Yang Energies for a Fulfilling Life

In the modern world, our office is more than just a workspace—it is our hunting ground, where we pursue success, challenge ourselves, and expand our influence. Here, the energy of Yang fuels our ambition, drives our actions, and propels us toward external growth.

However, a high-energy environment without balance can lead to burnout, misalignment, and stagnation. Harnessing the right Feng Shui principles can transform a workspace into a powerhouse of productivity, leadership, and prosperity, ensuring that effort is not just exerted, but optimized for long term success.

Balance is not just a luxury—it is a strategic necessity for those who aim to thrive.

Join Senior Masters Janene Laird and Cristina Groza as they reveal how we can embrace the natural interplay of Yin and Yang to create a home and business life balance that is both dynamic and harmonious.

Through two distinct sessions, they will explore the unique roles our home as a sanctuary and our office as a hunting ground play in shaping our well-being and success. These insights will ultimately intersect in the final conclusions, providing a comprehensive approach to achieving balance in both personal and professional life.

Master Felix Andrian

Rediscovering Yin and Yang: A Holistic Approach to Feng Shui in Urban and Architectural Design

In modern Feng Shui practice, we sometimes get overly focused on complex Feng Shui formulas and techniques, neglecting the fundamental principle of Yin and Yang. This presentation aims to remind us to return to the essence of balance by exploring how Yin and Yang manifest on both macro and micro scales—from urban design and architectural planning to interior spaces. The harmony of our living, working, and activity spaces is deeply rooted in the dynamic interaction between these opposing yet complementary forces. Through real-world examples, we will examine how applying classical Yin-Yang principles can enhance spatial quality, optimize energy flow, and create environments that foster wellbeing and prosperity. By returning to this foundational concept, we can refine our Feng Shui practice to become a more holistic and adaptable approach for the modern world.

I Ching – The Knowledge of Yin and Yang

The foundation of I Ching Divination is on the 8 Trigrams created by Fu Hsi from the Taichi – Yin and
Yang – which is considered to be the fundamental law of the Universe. From the Tai chi, Fu Hsi developed his “Early Heavenly Bagua” which are Trigrams composed of Yin and Yang lines and they are symbols of natural phenomenon on planet earth. These yin and yang symbols are applied in understanding events and forecasting the future. And they are also the ancient Binary digit code inspiring modern computer science. The talk will explain the deep meaning of the Taichi and how Fu Hsi derived the 8 trigrams from the Taichi, and demonstrate with examples to show how these yin and yang symbols becomes divination tools for foreseeing the future.

‘Using the Correct Feng Shui Formula in the Right Place’- Part 2

There are many Feng Shui formulae, which comes as a bit of a surprise to beginners in this fascinating art. Just as a house builder needs to learn different methods for different parts of the house, so a Feng Shui practitioner needs to use different formulae in different parts of the environment. The trick is to use the correct formula in its own space. For example, Flying Star formulae are designed to measure the feng shui quality of interior spaces, but are not meant to be used externally to design a garden or place a fountain. Instead, San He formulae are designed for that area. Likewise, Eight Mansion formulae, which are concerned with door positions, do not clash with Flying Star Formulae, which are concerned with interior areas.

Listen to this talk to understand which formula is to be used in which part of the environment.

Senior Master Yap Boh Chu

The Origins and the Effect of Yin Feng Shui

In Feng Shui, we always speak about Yin and Yang. The normal understanding is that these are applied in the feng shui of home and offices. However, feng shui itself is divided in both Yin Feng Shui and Yang Feng Shui where Yin Feng Shui is for the deceased and Yang Feng Shui is for the living.

Why would we practise Yin Feng Shui?

A passage from the 葬書 (Zhangshui) may give us a hint: 鬼福及人 (Guǐ fú jí rén) The Ghost will give blessing to the people. This means that feng shui for the deceased can bring good effects (blessings) to
the living.

However, the converse is also true, if Yin Feng Shui is done improperly, it can kill the descendants of the deceased, and in some circumstances, even the feng shui master will die.

Yin Feng Shui is not for the faint hearted!

The Yin and Yang Balance for Healthy Life

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the balance of yin and yang in our body is the foundation of good health. The same principle is found in the Chinese fortune telling system – The Four Pillars of Destiny. The composition of yin and yang elements in our birth data can also reflect a person’s state of health. In our body, the heart and blood circulation belong to fire element, which is yang. The Kidney, the urinary system and the immune system belong to water element which is yin. The talk will demonstrate with examples the various sicknesses caused by imbalance of yin and yang in the elements in our Four Pillars of Destiny and suggest nutritional supplements to maintain balance and harmony for achieving healthy life.
