Our country has always paid attention to Feng Shui, but who first proposed the term Feng Shui?

There are many different opinions on the origin of "Feng Shui". Some say it was created by Jiutian Xuannv, and some say it was created by Gui Guzi. Personally, I think Jiutian Xuannv is a figure in myths and legends after all, and Guiguzi is a real person in history. From this point of view, it is quite credible that Guiguzi first proposed the concept of "Feng Shui". Even if there are other opinions besides this, it is credible from historical records. It is enough to find a basis for making a distinction.

It is undeniable that Feng Shui has made irreplaceable contributions in the long historical development process. Both the emperors and generals in feudal society and the broad masses of working people have learned about Feng Shui. In today's civilized society, there are still a large number of loyal fans of Feng Shui. In particular, the location, interior furnishings and decoration construction of the house will be analyzed from the perspective of Feng Shui. This is also an intuitive reflection of the value of Feng Shui.

It is understood that Guo Pu of the Jin Dynasty once compiled the book "The Book of Burial". From the description of the content in the book, it is not difficult to see that this work has a relatively clear definition of Feng Shui, and at the same time it also The gist of Feng Shui is reflected in the book. If this is used as a reference, then Guo Pu is also an important task in the formation of Feng Shui. However, later generations know very little about it, and it is not as popular and concerned as Guiguzi. .

Through the comparative analysis of relevant materials, it is not difficult to find that the public and scholars have great differences on the origin and creation of Feng Shui. In fact, ordinary people do not care about this, as long as they can understand their work and life. If it plays a substantial role, the existence value of Feng Shui will be recognized. Perhaps this is the decisive factor for the Feng Shui theory to be passed down in the long history.
