Reading The News - Synchronity
Westerners tend to look upon a lot of Chinese customs as being old-fashioned and overdone. One example may be the mutual care the Chinese choose to maintain in their families.

This is much more than social convention.

When a man married a lady in China, he was supposed to adopt her family and take care of them. When a woman married a man, she followed him and was supposed to adopt his family and leave her own behind.

It is believed that all human kind is connected in Qi, which is surely true. This does not mean we are all connected by blood. For a family it is true, that all members are connected both through Qi and by blood.

Therefore it is believed that:

'When I am doing o.k., my brother will be o.k.
When I am ill, this will affect my brother'.

As a consequence and in order for me to take care of my own Qi, I have to take care of my brother's Qi.

In directionology this means that, if I choose to move into an undesirable direction because I think my Qi resonance can handle that just fine, it may negatively affect my family at the same time.

Quite known in Feng Shui circles is the custom of burying the dead in auspicious directions and locations in order for their bones to tap into auspicious Qi and have the descendents profit from this and become prosperous.

Grave site Feng Shui is called Yin Zhai or Feng Shui for the dead. Yang Zhai is Feng Shui for houses of the living, but understanding the special synchronity of Qi between family members and adjusting one's conduct and actions is another, largely forgotton, part of Yang Zhai.
