Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of arranging buildings, objects, and space in an environment to achieve harmony and balance


Feng shui is an ancient Chinese art of rule-based superstition. Which is an interesting thing to think about from the marketing perspective. Is there a feng shui rulebook/superstition list or do people just randomly make this stuff up? Because that would make a lot more sense. Not that anything about feng shui makes sense in the price place.

I know they even hire special feng shui people in china for the feng shui of architecture, for example. Those guys earn a very pretty penny in doing their job but also being known as a feng shui master. So, like a celebrity architect basically.
I don't know if feng shui have such book of rules or things to do but some asian people who were near in china adopted this feng shui superstition. My country also have adopted this feng shui superstition since our country has many Chinese people. As far as I know feng shui improve the quality of life and more about positivity it also has some belief about placements of things to avoid bad luck and attract lucks. Chinese casino owners obviously will do this superstition since they are facilitating a casino and it involves money, This is why I think luck is very crucial to them. Imagine they are hiring some feng shui expert just to accommodate the superstition, This shows that they are taking it seriously.

I think luck has a separate culture within every culture. For example, I am not sure but Europeans have bad luck and good luck superstitions like not breaking mirrors or walking under ladders. Though from my own perspective its a nothing-burger but from other people's perspective they would even give up money to have good luck / not to have bad luck. This definitely is a huge marketing help/hindrance for marketers, especially gambling casino marketing people.

I wonder now are there global gambling superstitions? Something like signs every gambler would see as luck or unluck?
