Feng Shui (Chinese: 風水, "Wind and Water") is an ancient Chinese teaching for the harmonious design of spaces and living environments. The aim is to optimise the flow of life energy Qi (Chi) in the home and workplace in such a way as to promote health, happiness, harmony and prosperity.

Feng Shui is based on the principle of the Five Elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water), the Yin-Yang balance and the Bagua – an octagonal energy diagram that assigns specific areas of life to each zone of a space. Incense plays an important role in Feng Shui practice for energetic cleansing and activation of spaces: fresh citrus scents enliven, sandalwood harmonises, and frankincense purifies deeply.

Incense in Feng Shui: Incense is used to cleanse spaces (especially after conflicts or illness), to activate specific Bagua areas and to harmonise the elements.
