Feng Shui is also part of the Mysterious culture (Shenmiwenhua) of China. Its purpose is to bring the two worlds (heaven and earth) together; the visible, physical world (Chinese called 'Yu') and the invisible, unseen vibrational world (Chinese called 'Kan'). Feng Shui is the edge in between these two worlds. An earlier name for feng shui was 'KanYu' meaning between Heaven and Earth. Over thousands of years, many aspects of divination have evolved from the Taoist philosophy of yin/yang, the 8 trigrams of the I Ching and the astrological systems of the 'Heavenly Stems' and 'Earthly Branches' and 'Lunar Mansions'.The study of Feng Shui included a broad range of subjects and is considered part of the 8 'rays' of Traditional Chinese Medicine - acupuncture, herbal medicine, Wushu (Chinese martial arts) & Qigong (breathing exercises), food energetics, moxibustion, meditation, astrology and feng shui. According to tradition, "the 'River Chart' (Ho T'u) was a diagram supposed to have been borne out of the Yellow River on the back of a 'dragon horse' during the reign of the legendary Fu Hsi. This mathematical chart is one of the most ancient diagrams of Chinese numerical cosmological thought. "The 'Lo Writing' (Lo Shu) was supposed to have been borne out of the Lo River on the back of a tortoise at the time when the legendary Yu was draining off the waters of the great flood. This ancient diagram is often referred to as tute 'Ba Gua' or 'magic square', and is an arrangement of numbers reflecting the cosmological order of the seasons, directions and 8 trigrams in regards to the five element theory. In the Ching dynasty encyclopedia 'Si Xui Chu Shu" , Feng Shui is classified under the same category as mathematics because both are symbolic representations of nature. The divination of numbers is called 'Shu Shu' in China.In the Zhou Dynasty (11th Century BC to 246 BC), the pre-classical period of Chinese history, there is evidence from oracle bones and symbols that solar and lunar eclipses were recorded. Constellations were recorded in the Book of Odes (9th century BC) and a system of divination called "Zhan Bu' was used to determine the auspiciousness of a site. 'Zhan Bu' was dealing with the nature of water on a site, and underground streams.From the Song Dynasty (960 - 1279) feng shui generally split into two major schools -the Form and Compass Schools. The Compass School , Chinese name ''Li Qi Pai ' or 'Regulating the form of energy', used a form of compass to help determine the feng shui situation. It also used astrological patterns and numerology to measure the auspiciousness of a dwelling. In the 10th Century, an emphasis on precise mathematical calculations and formulae relating to compass points evolved. The ancient Chinese, knowing of the magnetic effect of the earth's gravitational field on animals and human beings, used the Luo Pan time saver the relationship between man, the earth and the heavens. It was recorded that a geomancer, flourishing between AD 713-741, Ch'iu Yen-Han, used a Lo P'an featuring the 'twenty-four directions' or 15 degree zones of the magnetic circle.
