In the Preface to Qing Capsule, Yang Gong emphasized the importance of geographical geomantic omen, and believed that geography was the key factor affecting human destiny. The article points out that geographical feng shui is closely related to numerology, and only by mastering the mystery of geographical feng shui can we truly understand the principles of numerology. In addition, Yang Gong also put forward the core concepts of geographical geomantic omen: Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Eight Diagrams, Six hexagrams and so on. These ideas became the cornerstone of the later development of geomantic omen.

However, feng shui is also controversial. On the one hand, people think that Feng Shui is a traditional culture with high practical value. On the other hand, some people think that Feng Shui is superstitious and cannot be explained by scientific methods.

In a word, Qing nang Xu, as an article explaining the principles and methods of geomantic omen, has important reference value for later geomantic omen research. In modern society, we should continue to study geomantic omen deeply, combine it with modern science, and make contributions to social development and human welfare.
