RATIONALE: Feng shui (the words mean "wind" and "water") attempts to balance yin and yang to achieve harmony. Yin (conceived of as negative, dark, and feminine) and yang (representing the positive, bright, and masculine) stand for all the dualistic, opposing forces that may be reconciled harmoniously, including female and male, night and day, moon and sun, cold and hot, and right and left.
