其实风水主要是研究自然的规律，然后调整人的生活习惯来适应环境，自然会起到一定的效用。有些风水原理也确实被科学实验证明有一定的道理，而不能笼统地被归纳为骗人和迷信。简单说来，不同的居住环境会产生不同的能量场，这些不同的能量场对居住者会产生明显的吉凶不同的影响。好的风水环境可以极大地提升人的综合运势，而不好的风水则往往给人带来不幸。

Actually, fengshui mainly studies the rules of nature. Then, when people adjust their lifestyles to adapt to the environment, nature will give you a certain result. Some principles of fengshui have been proven as valid in scientific experiments. They can't all be lumped together as superstitions for cheating people. To put it in simple terms, different living environments will create different energy fields. The differences between these energy fields will also create obviously different good or bad effects for the people who live there. Environments with good fengshui can really improve people's overall luck. And bad fengshui, on the other hand, can bring you a ton of bad luck.

The most important things that fengshui adjusts are shortcomings in the five elements [fire, air, water, metal and earth--Ed.] in a residence. It uses unique solutions to make a comprehensive adjustment. At best, it can make up for inherent shortcomings in your residence, and change bad things into good. It allows people to enjoy the coziness of their living environment. Plus, it can make your business more prosperous. If small changes can bring you so many good things, what's the harm?
