COURSE DESCRIPTIONS, TOPICS, OUTLINES AND OBJECTIVES

Getting started with Feng Shui

All modules  start again in New York City October each year

feng shui classFeng Shui is often called "The Key to Good Fortune". The Feng Shui journey is a deep, poetical view of life's underlying influences. It is a language of Universal cosmology and change. We will explore what this means on all; levels, physical, emotional, spiritual and universal. You will learn the how and why of "Energy Design" techniques that have been associated with Feng Shui masters for thousands of years. You will learn how to combine the intuitive thinking processes of Feng Shui and analytical techniques, a blend of east and west, of right and left hemispheres of awareness.

This module will present the definitions and principles of Feng Shui. You will learn why Feng Shui works and how it can enhance your life so you can achieve results in your living and business environments. Most modern designs lack the concept of Energy flow- and energy awareness. You have most likely heard of the concept "sick building syndrome". Some houses just don't feel right. Some businesses do badly for no apparent reason. Find out what the major contributing factors to these situations are.

In the East, no major decision for business design or location is made until it is thoroughly investigated by a Feng Shui expert. William S. Doyle, Vice President of a New York advertising agency describes why he uses Feng Shui in his 16,000 square feet of offices. "People need to understand its 3,000 years of common sense, codified and turned into principles which can be repeated with foreseeable results. This is an art form; there is a reason why it is done. It is practical and pragmatic."

Here is an excerpt from one of our recent graduates:

"In recent years, people have become more aware of their impact - largely negative - on their environment. As we strive to come to terms with and slowly begin to repair the damage that has been done to the earth, the atmosphere and beyond, there has been an increasing awareness of humanity's relationship with the earth and the universe. The popularity of Feng Shui is a natural consequence of this awareness since it is precisely this relationship, between heaven, earth and humanity, which must be balanced to achieve good fortune and good health for all. Not coincidentally, humanity must begin to honor this relationship once again in order to ensure its prosperity in the future." -Erica Goldstein, architect OAQ Graduated from McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, 1996 Registered by the Order of Architects of Quebec, 2007 Currently studying with Roger Green.

Module 1 consists of an exploration of the origins and history of Feng Shui, the different schools of Feng Shui, the development of Feng Shui's most powerful tools and an explanation of the underlying principles that allow Feng Shui to work.

Unravel the complexities of the yin-yang principle and 5 elements theory and learn how to utilize them in design to enrich life and create the best energetic qualities for health and prosperity.

  • Gain a practical knowledge of the most valuable Feng Shui applications for home, business, and personal growth.

Ba Gua to Flying Star techniques with Roger Green

group of people with compassThe universe and all it contains is essentially energy in a continual state of transformation. The ancient Taoist sages of the East observed powerful insights into the inner working of the universe, and devised methods to trace the everlasting process of change- the rhythm of the order of the universe.

In Module 2 we continue our journey with an introduction to Compass School Feng Shui (the second of the original 2 schools of Feng Shui). Using the Western Lopan developed by Roger Green, as a reference tool, you will be led through an exploration of all that is possible when the 8 compass directions are combined with the dynamics of yin/yang and the 5 elements theory. With the introduction of the eight directions we follow the evolution of the "Later Heaven Trigrams" to construct the "Bagua", an octagonal mandala with infinite uses in Feng Shui. We examine the Lo Shu, or the magic square of Feng Shui, as it leads to the Ming Gua and Ba Zhai methods, the core of "Eight Houses" Feng Shui.

Extensive workbooks by Roger Green are issued to students of this program. These workbooks cannot be acquired anywhere else. The result is an integrative, comprehensive, stimulating and innovative training program, considered by many to be the finest in the world. The SFSFS curriculum has been consistently updated and improved over the years to reflect the most relevant subject matter and has set many trends in Feng Shui education. This program reaches through the centuries to successfully integrate the thousands of years old origins of this art and science with the requirements and actuality of contemporary life.

The training program offers many advanced techniques, and emphasizes the classical schools of Feng Shui.

THE FLYING STAR TECHNIQUES:

Here we will enter into the exploration of Flying Star Feng Shui and a more in-depth, advanced study of the Lo pan Compass.

The Universe is ever changing and natural influences evolve with the passage of time. Flying Star Feng Shui incorporates the elements of time and space. Discover how to trace the pattern of change through the 20 year periods called "ages". Learn how to access the fortune of a dwelling. With practice, one can become skilled at how to unblock energies that affect the aspects of prosperity and health in a dwelling.

The Lopan Compass is the essential tool in Classical Feng Shui. Its many rings reveal vital information in assessing a dwelling or building site and contain a large body of knowledge that encompasses classical Chinese philosophy, numerology and cosmology. The Chinese Lopan can take a very long time to master since it requires prior learning of the Chinese characters. The Western Lopan developed by Roger Green simplifies the process and makes it easier for the western student to learn and use.

The Lopan reveals the different energies affect the site. With this knowledge, you can do an in depth analysis of a home or business. An understanding of the Lopan is considered one of the highest arts in the world of Feng Shui.

  • Recognize the cycles of time and different ages.
  • Transform or 'fly' in a forward or reverse manner depending on the age and orientations involved.

In creating these systems of Feng Shui Astrology, ancient people took into consideration the underlying influences of universal cosmology and the cycles of change. Flying Stars Feng Shui is the most widely used method in Asia. Many of our students have also studied Flying Stars Feng Shui and the Lopan with other teachers. Their reporting has been consistent: Roger Green has offered them the clearest, most understandable discourse on the subject, and his teaching methods simplify the processes so that they are truly usable on every project. Many students have reported that they experienced a huge increase in their Feng Shui abilities after experiencing this course.

"Roger Green opens a life's journey into feng shui. He teaches with rampant enthusiasm & his intuitive knowledge appears to have no boundaries. The course is soul inspiring. An absolute gem! I would do it again." - Ian

The 4 Pillars Cosmology and Horoscope

This sophisticated form of astrology is an important Feng Shui tool for advising a client. Interpretation, once mastered, can be applied to auspicious timing, relationship compatibility, lucky colors, personalized feng shui design recommendations and many other aspects. It is an amazing and deep study of cosmological influences, and a rare form of astrology not widely known in the west. Only a handful of westerns have been able to master this art.

Discover the richness of eastern philosophy and learn how to apply its principles to health, design, prosperity and spiritual transformation. The 4 Pillars Astrology is based on Taoist Metaphysics and Cosmology, and is used extensively by Feng Shui experts in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Time changes everything. Therefore, time cycle Feng Shui is a must in the study and application of Feng Shui. Discover the energetics and elements that make up your potentials. Uncover many aspects of destiny, constitutional dynamics, and beneficial elements. Learn the 60 Jia combinations of Time Cycles Men Qi. This course will cover advanced methods and many case histories. You will learn how to make your own chart, interpret it and do the same for others.

The Four Pillars is an ancient system that reveals aspects of destiny, constitutional dynamics, and beneficial elements. This sophisticated method is as useful for deriving important and very personal Feng Shui information about Feng Shui clients such as aspects of their character. Armed with superior knowledge of their clients and their needs, the practitioner can optimize the relevance and results of the consultation.

Four pillars is an ancient system of constructing a Horoscope based on the "Heavenly Stems" and "Earthly Branches" at the hour, day, month and year of birth. Interpretation is the result of examining the manner in which the elemental and animal archetypes contained in the charts interact with aspects within the chart as well as conditions in the world.

Four Pillars' greatest strength for Feng Shui is its ability to accurately determine the Element make-up of the subject. Once the self-element is determined beneficial elements can be recognized and the most appropriate Feng Shui adjustments and design choices can be made.

Let Roger take you on a fascinating 4 Pillar journey in time and space, yin-yang, spirals and elements to the very core of the formation of your constitution.

Roger Green is a pioneer of Four Pillars in Western culture, having introduced these methods for the first time to thousands of students in Europe, UK, USA and Australia. He created the first effective protocols for 100% correct chart calculations, stressing the importance of correct local solar time and developing the appropriate adaptation for the calculation of Southern Hemisphere charts. This work has never been accomplished before in history.

Included with this course is an extensive step-by-step manual for calculating and interpreting Four Pillars as well as Roger's simplified technique for creating Four Pillars and Luck Pillars charts.

“I have been learning Flying Stars for 3 years and have studied with several of the other teachers including a correspondence course. Only after taking this workshop with Roger Green have I been truly able to put it all together.”

“This was the most comprehensive training a Feng Shui practitioner could get. Being part of the NY School of Feng Shui is an ongoing process of learning and achievement. We are prepared to offer clients a full spectrum of options when asked to enter their living or working space.

Practical Feng Shui Projects and Site Consults

Simple Steps to Harmony with the Lessons of Wind and Water

Those who get the most from life are the people who get the most from themselves. To help achieve this potential, Feng Shui allows us to create an environment that flows naturally, releasing any blockages. Feng Shui is about harnessing 'chi', the life-force which ripples water, creates mountains and propels us along our path.

Discover how the Form school of Feng Shui can help you recognize the landscapes and buildings which provide support for the residents of homes and office buildings. Find out how to balance negative forces that can deplete prosperity, health and well being. Combine form school principles with classical compass methods and apply them in a practical setting for the benefit of your clients, and yourself.

In this module, students will have the opportunity to gain practical experience and apply all they have learned in the first 2 modules holistically. They will also have the opportunity to challenge themselves, find out what they've mastered and become aware of the areas that require further review. The focus of this module is to build confidence in our student practitioners and to assure that they are well trained before practicing on their own. The first 3 days of this module are dedicated to practical site visits. Students will have the opportunity to experience the components of actual consultations in a variety of settings; all under the expert supervision of our faculty and graduates.

The final day is dedicated to the review of the course work to date. There is a take- home revision exam that will be reviewed on day 4. Students will also have the opportunity to present their Feng Shui Consultation Project to the class for review. These projects will be further expanded later in our Ecological Living Designs modules. You will finish our training program with a beautifully presented Feng Shui and Eco Design presentation, refined and well crafted, artistically prepared, graphically correct, and ready to be used on your website, client portfolio and PowerPoint presentation. Completing the revision exam and the project are required for certification.

students in a classroomDoing Consultations

Our goal at our Feng Shui School is to ensure that our students are comfortable and adept in making professional feng shui consultations. Students will be required to perform consultations in between modules, so that they can consolidate and apply the information as they gain the necessary, practical experience. After the first two modules, students will perform one consultation, and after acquiring more skill and confidence, students will be required to do two or three after each of the remaining modules.

Features of our programs:

  • Learn the Taoist Art of Design and environmental awareness.
  • Absorb the mysteries of these ancient techniques as they are decoded and taught by Roger Green.
  • Understand the 4 pillars Horoscope, one of the most fascinating systems of metaphysics.
  • Identify the directionality associated with your year of birth.
  • Use an English language designed lopan compass to use with the ancient flying star techniques.
  • Start to integrate these techniques into effective feng shui designs and recommendations.

Student requirements:

  • Access to an email account, computer and printer.
  • Access to a digital camera.
  • Art material list provided to students eg coloring pens, ruler, compass, etc.
  • Good temperament and respect for our teachers at all times.
  • Being punctual.

“Our consultation was awesome. The students who came to give us the consultation were so knowledgeable. They listened well and asked us great questions. The questions helped us to focus on what we wanted to get out of our consultation. After speaking to them we realized that keeping our work and personal life separate was our main goal since we both work from home.”

“They went above and beyond that. We learned about what colors where best for our personalities, where the best place to put things in the house are and how to enhance the aesthetics naturally present in our Edwardian apartment. Right after they left we started moving things around and the suggestions we have already taken have really shifted things in the house. Since my workspace is not separate from the rest of the house our whole life and relationship has shifted. We are creating more balance. It was a great experience; I would recommend it to anyone.” Darshana Weilland Chris Berkner, San Francisco

“The New York School of Feng Shui is a gift to all who want to know the “real deal” about feng shui. No gimmicks here. This was a true educational experience. The importance of knowing why certain treatments and cures work is stressed. Roger Green is a master feng shui practitioner who generously shares his life experience and knowledge of this ancient Chinese art with his students with humor and with grace and ease. By the end of the course work I was confident that I had the tools and the knowledge necessary to be of service to people interested in “being feng shuied”.-Melissa Moorer Nobles

Sustainable Living Environments

Incorporating Ecological Sustainable Green Living Healthy Designs!

rock gardenHeal the Earth one room, one place one person at a time! In Sustainable Living Environments, you will learn how to avoid and transform environments that are debilitating and destructive and explore a range of tangible and subtle elements which positively impact the environments that support all of life. The nature of reality is guided by the choices we make. In no other practice is it more important to choose wisely and consciously than in our building practices and materials. Building in a sustainable manner is imperative for global survival and the preservation of humanity. Explore exciting possibilities for creating spaces following Ecological and Sustainable Design principles. Become familiar with the process of designing earth friendly structures that support life and bring joy to those that inhabit them. A resource guide to green and sustainable materials as well as class room instruction on design will be provided.

The Healthy Dwelling and Eco-Design Principles

Knowledge of Building Biology is an essential component of the Feng Shui course in that it enables us to guide our clients towards optimum health. When giving a client advice on the best way in which to arrange their home - we need to be aware of any environmental factors that may compromise their health. This training also addresses the biological and health aspects of our dwellings. We will examine strategies to detect and mitigate conditions such as indoor pollution and physical dangers in our living and workspaces. Learn to test, diagnose and provide solutions for creating healthier indoor space using organic design principles and materials.

Air Quality

We can't live without air. However, often we are living with air that is neither fresh nor clean - and doing so compromises our quality of health and longevity. Increasingly in our homes and offices, the air quality is depleted because of moulds, or the variety of chemicals and synthetics that we use. These are multiple harmful elements in the products that we bring into the house, or are already contained in the building materials and/or the furnishings in the home. We will examine what these chemicals and synthetics are, how we come across them in everyday life (usually without being aware of it), the impact they have on our health, and how to turn the situation around so that we can move closer to the fresh, clean air we used to breathe.

Water Quality

We Are water. Water is a fundamental requirement for life. Traditionally, our water supply came from constantly moving streams, rivers or springs and was energized, clean and pure, adding to our health and vitality. These days the water that comes out of our taps is often a depleting cocktail of bacteria, heavy metals, pesticides and chemicals. We'll take a good, strong look at the state of our tap water - what's been added to it, what that means for our health - and most importantly, what we can do to provide ourselves with water that actually nourishes us once again.

Passive Solar Design

Passive solar design is essential, along with day-lighting strategies, to encourage balanced emotions, comfort, and efficiency.

Green Sustainable Design

Natural materials and conscious practices support sustainable daily living while ensuring resource efficiency and a healthy environment.

Ecology

We will explore the inter-relationship of humanity and the natural environment. "You will come away from this course with an impressive array of very usable tools that you can immediately put to use in your work".

Electromagnetic Fields

earth ship exteriorIncreasingly in today's industrialized world, we are inundated with previously unknown sources of chemicals and pollutants and unseen electromagnetic and microwave radio frequencies, which are unleashed into our environments from appliances, building materials, and finishes. It is a well-known fact that chemicals, inorganic compounds, molds, allergens, electromagnetic fields, and microwaves can cause biological stresses and disease to the body. The effects of "Sick Building Syndrome" are now widely felt in our homes and in our office environments.

Spending time near electromagnetic fields, and microwave transmissions is now a fact of life. They fill our air and surround us on a daily basis - whether we're aware of it or not. In order to safeguard our health, and that of our families, we need to become aware of what they are, where they are, what they're doing to us, and how to minimize their effect on us. If you've ever wondered about power lines, substations, laptop computers, wireless technology, baby monitors,low-voltage lights, clock radios, electric blankets, mobile phones, cordless phones, microwaves - or any of the other appliances in your home or office - then this is the course that'll give you the answers!

Learn about the differing types of fields, how they are produced, and also refer to the research about their impact on our health. We'll look at what we now call 'everyday' situations, in the home and office, and at ways in which we can avoid or minimize the amount of fields that are present in our homes and offices. We also learn to prioritize which areas of the house are most important, which appliances or technology we need to use with caution, and how we can still live in the modern world whilst protecting our health.

Sustainable Living Environments:

  • Study the relationship between human health and building design.
  • Learn how to design the Energy Efficient Dwelling.
  • Learn about using the elements of Nature: air, sun, wind, water, bio-climate and passive solar design techniques.
  • How do we really create a "healthy" dwelling?
  • What are 'green' sustainable materials?

Sacred Geometry -The Alchemy of Design

For more information on our Sacred Geometry Practitioner courses visit our website: www.AcademySacredGeometry.com

sacred geometry classSacred Geometry can be defined as an understanding of the underlying numerical and geometric principles of Creation. Using an awareness of ratio, or the relationship between two or more elements, Sacred Geometry demonstrates how everything in the Universe is connected and that the only power that can truly create is Love. The more coherent a space is the more vitality it will nurture.

There exists in nature patterns in shapes, colors and mathematics that are the description and content of creation. Within these patterns we encounter the underlying principles that make it possible for our universe to exist! The movement of energy as it proceeds in its never ending process of transformation can be seen. It is a universal language of truth, harmony, beauty, proportion, rhythm and order. Within the dance lie sub-atomic particles, spiraling galaxies, wave theory, zero point, holographic fields, the fractal universe, geometry of DNA, and finally, sacred architecture. Embark on this path to understanding who you are, where you are from and where you are going.
Throughout this dynamic module you will:

Draw the sacred shapes and explore their integration into real world design. We will explore the practical uses in spatial design - a fusion of Geomancy, science and Feng Shui, while integrating sacred geometry and architectural harmonies into our work. Every culture and society, since the beginning of time has had their version of a synergistic interrelationship with these patterns. We will view case histories and examples of the patterned language of nature, including geometric shapes, music, art, the human body, landscaping, architecture inspired by the Cosmic Order, including Feng Shui, Sacred Geometry and Vastu Shastra (vedic design) Mandalas.

geometrical shapeHistorical as well as cultural perspectives will be entertained so as to draw a relationship between primitive indigenous and modern design. By studying the nature of these forms and their relationship to each other one may gain insight into the scientific, philosophical, psychological, aesthetic, and mystical laws of the universe.
Building Materials

As a rule of thumb we should employ building materials in a state closest to that in which they are found. The more coherent a material is the more vitality it will nurture. (best first)
Metals: Gold, palladium, platinum, silver, copper, iron, tin, steel, aluminium.
Woods: Hardwood (close grained, hi mineral), Softwoods (loose grained, lo mineral).
Stones: Granite, limestone (paramagnetic). Sandstone, slate (diamagnetic). Glass.
Fabric: Hemp, silk, cotton, wool, polyester, synthetic.

  • An introduction to the language: the shapes, numbers and patterns.
  • The geometry of living forms: the golden section, Fibonacci sequences, the five-pointed star and the spiral.

We will also look at the idea of beauty and how the parts relate to the whole.

  • Develop a fundamental understanding of how Nature moves, grows and expresses 'Harmony'.
  • Learn the fundamentals of what is called 'Sacred Geometry' or Divine Ratio.
  • Learn the Basic Principles of creating Harmonic or 'Sacred Space' by using Shape, Ratio and Proportion.
  • See how these Principles have been and are being used in Nature, Art and Architecture.
  • Learn the Geometry of Compassion and Love.
  • Learn how our perceptions of the world literally create our reality and how to become more conscious of what it is we wish to create.
  • Become more aware of the Creative Power of our thoughts, feelings and emotions.
  • Learn the meaning of 'Coherence' , 'Shareability' and 'Sustainablity' in our hearts and our outer environments.
  • Learn what happens in our hearts and our bodies when we become less judgemental, more loving (more coherent) and specifically when we make ourselves available to 'clear' energy.
  • Learn the importance of creating individual and group Bliss in our lives.
  • Develop a greater appreciation of our collective role and responsibility in the creation and maintenance of our Eco-System and beyond.
  • Have the opportunity to explore how this knowledge can raise our awareness and bring us one step closer to Remembering Who We Truly Are.
  • Study the symbolism of numbers and shapes through discussion and stories.
  • Explore the way sacred space is created in cultures from around the world.
  • Learn how geometry relates to the idea of beauty and harmony in our lives and the world around us.
  • Experience the ideas of sacred space from different cultures by drawing the patterns.
Sacred Architecture

"The bee hive and the pine cone are excellent examples of sacred architecture because as biological capacitors they implode charge, making life and bliss possible and sustainable. They are made of biologic di-electric (self-similar at atomic and molecular symmetry levels), what Reich used to call orgone material, really names for fractal capacitive di-electric. The reason a beehive or a celtic straw hut in sea spray makes things live so long, is because they are good capacitors. Ancient dolmen sites, fresh eggs and even cathedrals hold life in bliss in the spell of their charge, because they are 'in charge' - that is - FULL OF CHARGE. Life occurs when biological structures learn to gather charge in enough different wavelengths to cause them to compress or 'implode'. When enough different waves gather in one place in the Golden Mean ratio they begin to suck in an infinite number of other waves - but always in Golden Mean ratio. This is the only way the universe has of arranging an infinite (in-PHI-knit) number of waves to gather at ONE point without hurting each other."

"As nature uses shape to hold charge or life force, it makes complete sense to use nature's shapes and proportions for the shape of our spaces and buildings. In terms of architecture and design of space, I believe that by creating spaces that are based on the pure principles of natural design we provide a sacred environment that can nurture our bodies, minds and spirits.We can literally design to raise the vibration of the inhabitants. We can use our quantum consciousness to create the space, and to clear it of any stresses that do not serve life."
- Michael Rice

Initiation into understanding:

  • The Universe is made of one substance and has one shape - the Sine Wave.
  • The world is made up of waves and sacred proportions.
  • Geometry produces symmetry. Waves get permission to arrange themselves and to store memory from 'ONENESS', through the Golden Mean 'Phi' ratio - the secret of the universe and the most accurate scientific pure principle to describe how things relate and function, evolve, change and manifest.
  • Waves are drawn to FOCUS and automatically sort themselves and agree to sustain via Sacred Geometry. They align to still points, creating 'CHARGE', 'ecstasy' and LIFE FORCE.
  • When the harmonics of the brain-body-heart-planet enter into NESTING, they do so by the principal of FRACTALITY. The small is within the large; the pattern of your fingertip is the same as the galaxy.
  • The doorway of perception is to holographically connect all of life processes - past, present and future.

"The Earth is rude, silent, incomprehensible at first, Nature is incomprehensible at first, Be not discouraged, keep on, there are divine things well envelop'd, I swear to you there are divine beings more beautiful than words can tell." -Walt Whitman ( 1819 - 1892, American Poet )

"Number is the within of all things" -Pythagoras ( c. 580 - 500 B.C., Greek philosopher )

"The only definition of sacred (sustainable) architecture is the skill to fabricate a biological capacitor. The way success is measured in a building (or anything) is harmonic inclusiveness of charge density (life)." -Dan Winter

Sacred Geometry and Architecture The Alchemy of Design With Michael Rice

Michael RiceLearn How to Create Sacred Space and Allow the Geometry of Space to Support and Sustain Conscious Intent

Sacred Geometry is the study and practice of the pure principle set of operations that underpin all natural expressions and processes. In ancient times, this knowledge was considered vital, (quite literally) if one wished to create a truly sacred life within a sustainable community- health and harmony.This module of study is designed to re-introduce and integrate this timeless life design philosophy into a modern context.

The more coherent a space is the more vitality it will nurture.

Sacred geometry, or spiritual geometry, is the belief that numbers and patterns such as the divine ratio have sacred significance. Many mystical and spiritual practices, including astrology, numerology, tarot, and feng shui, begin with a fundamental belief in sacred geometry. Architects and designers may draw upon concepts of sacred geometry when they choose particular geometric forms to create pleasing, soul-satisfying spaces.

whirling dancerSacred Geometry incorporates and utilises certain natural geometries, shapes, forms, ratios and growth patterns to create life and living sustainable systems- from the formative fabric and primary structure of the Universe, Stars and Planets- to the fundamental creative role played by consciousness, awareness and compassion. Our thoughts, when amplified by coherent emotion, literally create reality. When we begin to understand who we are and what we want- we can use this knowledge to help us make it so.

BIO ARCHITECTURE

A concept promoted by Roger Green's International Feng Shui, Sacred Geometry and Ecology conferences… held in several locations over the last 12 years.

Recent conferences were held in Budapest (2007) and the BIO-ARCHITECTURE CONFERENCES in SOUTH AMERICA with Sacred Geometry Seminars faculty members Dan Winter, Michael Rice and Oldrich Hozman. In Mexico it made front page news in Mexico, and attracted over 250 people from 12 countries, and the government sent heads of the department of the environment.

spiral galaxyThe Tao of Geometry with Marnie Muller and Mark Hanf

Tao is most often translated as “way” or “path” and in this 4 day course our labyrinthine path leads us towards the center of Chinese Geometry.

Deep within the ancient art and science of Geometry lies a beautiful and mysterious system of forms that has fascinated philosophers and sages from all spiritual traditions since antiquity.   In this particular Foundation Course we invite participants to awaken their own deeper levels of perception and to access the golden key of Sacred Geometry to unlock secrets encoded in the sacred symbols of China.  

Yin Yang symbol in United KingdomThis multifaceted course integrates hands-on geometric drawing with dynamic multimedia presentations and invites students to explore the harmonic balance of Heaven and Earth, Form and Emptiness, Science and Spirituality, Mastery and Mystery, Yin and Yang.

The Great Square has no corners. -Lao Tzu

Through this dynamic foundation course you will:
  • Develop a deeper understanding of the connection between Feng Shui principles and Sacred Geometry
  • Gain proficiency in the classical skills of architectural compass drawing through meditative geometric practices and individual instruction
  • Draw a series of traditional Chinese geometric patterns and designs to include in your own portfolio
  • Explore how these archetypal geometric patterns and designs can be effectively applied to one’s personal and professional life.

Just remain at the center of the circle And let all things take their course. -Lao Tzu

In this course, the content focus is:

  • Decoding the hidden fractal and holographic geometries embedded in the Yin Yang and how they relate to modern science and principles of design
  • Exploring the secret of how the Yin Yang is a multidimensional template (or map) for understanding geomagnetism and other core elements of Feng Shui
  • Discovering how the flow of chi integrally relates to the Yin Yang form through the principles of Sacred Geometry
  • Investigating how the Yin Yang is intimately related to the resonant proportions and symmetries of human anatomy
  • Exploring the mysteries of Squaring the Circle and the harmonics of balancing Heaven and Earth
  • Learning advanced construction techniques of the Ba Gua and other classic geometric symbols of China with architectural compass and straight edge
  • Developing a sensory, kinesthetic 3-D geometric experience of these primordial patterns and flow-forms
  • Zooming in on the toroidal and vortex geometries of ancient Chinese imagery and exploring how they reveal the living geometries of Nature

compassDay I Circle and Square

Our path begins with a multi-media glimpse of the rich culture of ancient China and its cosmology.  With Heaven Above, Earth Below, the deep geometries of Nature and the Universe are discovered embedded in art, architecture, astronomy, sacred measure, navigation, alchemy, and symbolism.

Throughout this course we explore the traditions of Taoism. Buddhism, and Confucianism and how the relationship of Human to Cosmos was an elemental expression of the Chinese culture.The primary tools of architectural compass and straight edge are at the heart of geometry. Throughout history, geometers have been initiated into the meditative art of geometric drawing as a spiritual practice and a practical skill. In this session we participate in this ancient tradition through drawing the archetypal forms of Circle and Square.  We develop our confidence and skill level by progressing to more complex forms such as The Hexagonal Matrix, the Yin Yang and the Lo Shu Magic Square.

Day II The Octagon and Other Key Geometric Forms

coinThe Tao gives birth to One. One gives birth to Two. Two gives birth to Three. Three gives birth to the Ten Thousand Things. -Lao Tzu

This session begins with a comprehensive multimedia presentation on Sacred Number, the Lo Pan Compass, the Ba Gua, the I Ching, the Five Elements and other key geometric patterns in Chinese cosmology.  We will explore the pentagon and the Five Elements as well as octagonal geometries and how they all arise from the Yin Yang. Using advanced compass skills we will construct the Ba Gua and other complex forms and explore how they are interrelated. We will examine the geometric aspects of the Lo Pan Compass as well as the Sacred Geometry of the seasons and cycles of time in Chinese Astronomy.

Day III Yin Yang

Being and Non-Being create each other… -Lao Tzu

The Tai Chi, known in the west as the Yin Yang, is a familiar symbol that embodies the philosophy of non-dualism or complementarity.  Its key principles of polarity and harmony as well as cyclic and wave motion are reflected throughout the cosmos. We will explore this archetypal geometric form found throughout Chinese culture through a unique multi-media presentation and discussion.

yin yangBy meditatively drawing variations of the Yin Yang with the geometer’s tools we will explore the principles and pathways of Fractal, Toroidal, and Vortex Geometries and how they map the phenomena of Electromagnetism, Chi, Human Anatomy, and Primordial Chi Kung Geometric Movements.

"Geometry has two great treasures: one is the theorem of Pythagoras, the other the division of a line into mean and extreme ratios, that is the Golden Mean. The first way may be compared to a measure of gold, the second to a precious jewel." --Johannes Kepler (1571-1630)

Day IV Squaring the Circle and Cubing the Sphere

One of the oldest puzzles in human history is how to construct a square and circle that have equal perimeter or area. This problem has fascinated mathematicians all over the world for centuries leading to the mystery of pi and representing something that appears logically impossible. Like a Zen koan, this level of paradox can invite the mind to transcend the rigidity of logic and arrive at a deeper level of meaning. With Heaven as Circle and Earth as Square, this ancient riddle expresses an underlying aspect of the whole of Chinese cosmology that points towards the relationship of Emptiness and Form; Spirit and Matter. Our multimedia presentation explores how this paradox is woven throughout Chinese art and architecture.

armillaryIn truest Taoist fashion, our final day brings us full circle back to where we began…in Mystery. How can our sacred geometer’s tools resolve this ancient riddle? 

Using a variety of Advanced Geometric construction techniques, we will demonstrate that:

The Tao is filled with infinite possibilities. -Lao Tzu

Througout these 4 days we will also be exploring:

  • Art, Color, & Design
  • The relationship between Geometric Design & Architecture
  • The Golden Proportion in Nature, Art and Architecture
We will take a pictorial tour of key geometric shapes and symmetries that form the blueprint of our world from the macrocosmos to the microcosmos.
  • A look at images of the human body and how the golden proportion is an elemental aspect of our human make-up.
  • How the laws and principles of geometry surround us in our everyday lives
  • Discover geometric shapes and symmetries that occur in Nature, by observing leaves, blooms, and other natural formations
  • Get to know the Geometer‚s Tools- exploring with Compass and Straight Edge
  • Reflection, Discussion and Time to digest your feelings and thoughts.

spoonConnecting with Geometry as a deep spiritual pathway to understanding who you are - what is the purpose of “Being Here Now” and the insights into Universal PhilosophyThe Knowledge of which Geometry aims Is knowledge of the Eternal. Plato, Republic VII, 52

Geometry is One and Eternal, Shining in the Mind of God. That share in it accorded to men Is one of the reasons that Man Is the Image of God. --Johannes Kepler

There was something formless and perfect Before the Universe was born. It is serene.  Empty. Solitary.  Eternally present. It is the mother of the Universe. For lack of a better name, I call it the Tao. -Lao Tzu

 

 


Advanced Feng Shui and site visits

Practical site visits, Revision Exam, Student projects

In this Module, students will have the opportunity to gain practical experience and apply everything they have learned so far in a holistic way. They will also have the opportunity to challenge themselves, know what they have mastered and become aware of the areas that require further review. The focus of this module is to build confidence in our student practitioners and to assure that they are well trained before going out on their own.

The first 3 days of this module are dedicated to practical site visits to different locations. Students will have the opportunity to experience the components of actual consultations in a variety of settings; all under Roger Green's expert supervision. The final day is dedicated to the review of the year's work to date. There is a take- home exam that will be reviewed on day 4. Students will also have the opportunity to present their Project to the class. Completing the exam and the project are a requirement for certification.

Our goal is to achieve 100% success rate. Students who are not quite up to speed will be encouraged and given support in their weaker areas so that they may meet the standard of the school.

Doing Consultations

students in a classroomWe will make sure our students are comfortable and adept in making professional feng shui consultations. Students will be required to perform consultations in between modules, so that they can consolidate and apply the information and gain the necessary, practical experience. After each of the first two modules, students will perform one consultation, and after acquiring more skill and confidence, students will be required to do two or three after each of the remaining modules.

Creating Your Feng Shui Practice

Through a unique business plan, we will help students dedicate to a solid business formula. You will learn vital marketing skills, such as creating a business card, promotional brochures and website development. We will help you begin and get you motivated to start attracting clients. You will learn how to consult and follow-up with clients for a 2-3 month period and sustain the relationship for up to 6 months or more.

Instructed by: Roger Green

Testimonials:

"Our consultation was awesome. The students who came to give us the consultation were so knowledgeable. They listened well and asked us great questions. The questions helped us to focus on what we wanted to get out of our consultation. After speaking to them we realized that keeping our work and personal life separate was our main goal since we both work from home."
"They went above and beyond that. We learned about what colors where best for our personalities, where the best place to put things in the house are and how to enhance the aesthetics naturally present in our Edwardian apartment. Right after they left we started moving things around and the suggestions we have already taken have really shifted things in the house. Since my workspace is not separate from the rest of the house our whole life and relationship has shifted. We are creating more balance. It was a great experience; I would recommend it to anyone."
Darshana Weilland & Chris Berkner, San Francisco

"The New York School of Feng Shui is a gift to all who want to know the "real deal" about feng shui. No gimmicks here. This was a true educational experience. The importance of knowing why certain treatments and cures work is stressed. Roger Green is a master feng shui practitioner who generously shares his life experience and knowledge of this ancient Chinese art with his students with humor and with grace and ease. By the end of the course work I was confident that I had the tools and the knowledge necessary to be of service to people interested in "being feng shuied"."

Testimonials from one of the longest established Feng Shui curriculum...

This was the most comprehensive training a Feng Shui practitioner could get. Being part of the NY School of Feng Shui is an ongoing process of learning and achievement. We are prepared to offer clients a full spectrum of options when asked to enter their living or working space. I am grateful for the experience and encourage you to choose the same path. Many blessings, Barbara, NY Student 2003

 Dear Roger, My language is not perfect, I feel more than I can express…
Roger’s “Learn Tao” course really made a connection for me, Feng Shui Practitioner, with Chinese Traditional Medicine and created a holistic view on a person within an environment. It helped me to address my own health issues and see my friends and clients health problems in a new way. I felt like I found the answers that I’ve been searching for years. I’ve done a lot of research and study before I’ve met Roger Green and the depth of his knowledge really impressed me. I thought I will take a course or two from him, but I could not stop, I ended up taking all of them. He is full of knowledge and wisdom, he is humble and humorous, perhaps, like a Real Taoist Master and Teacher should be. Natalia Kaylin (UKRAINE)

I just read through your information on Feng Shui in the southern hemisphere and wanted to thank you for the quality of your writing. I am moving house in Melbourne and I've been using the approach you describe for 2 years following a period of trying to live with the conventional method for the northern hemisphere. I found the difference to be enormous, but don't seem to rub shoulders with many people of like mind. Your explanation makes me feel comfortable with what I have done.
Thanks for taking the time to read this message, and for your brilliant article on the website. With Best Wishes, Dean Sky-Lucas (Melbourne Australia)

You would be so proud of me as I am being flown to Kentucky - all expenses paid for my first full paying consultation. This woman's house burned down 9 months ago leaving only the foundation. She has already rebuilt the house and is soon to move back in when she found me. I have also been practicing on other people and just did one of my acupuncturists home and spent 5 hours with her. It is amazing when you do a combination of the 4 Pillars with the home. This is truly healing on a deep level. Thank you so much for this ancient wisdom and being in my life. – Melanie, NY Student

 "I'm studying Feng Shui with Roger Green from Australia. He's the best teacher of any subject that I've ever encountered! The amount of information that he brought into that short introduction to this work was incredible. But more importantly, he instills this incredible sense of joy, wholeness, hope and fun into life! He has a great Australian accent, has a wonderful sense of humor, and teaches ancient wisdom that we all recognize, but have forgotten.” -Nancy, Yoga School Manager

What an awaking seminar! It enlightens me deeply, giving me far more that I could imagine. The first module showed me that from the microcosm of human life, we learn the vast & profound realities of the macrocosm. Roger Green couldn’t have been a better guide for exploring this integral & harmonious way through the natural principles of Feng Shui. Isn't what we all are seeking in our turbulent society?

Thank you for the privilege of working with you and your class from the Golden Gate School of Feng Shui. Our building in Berkeley presents so many challenges. It is a big complex mess. We were deeply impressed by the competence, creativity and undaunted wisdom which was expressed in each dimension of the work throughout the day. Your advice was sensible, grounded in practical business understanding, and, I believe once implemented, will be very beneficial. Your work as a teacher and advisor is simply outstanding. We will keep you abreast of changes at the building throughout the coming year. Many Thanks and Best Wishes, Bennett Johnston

Just quick notes to say a huge THANK YOU for the privilege of studying with you over this last year! It’s been fun, demanding, challenging and rewarding. I also intend doing some of the further modules with you in 2005. I'm inspired and think that I've finally found that passionate path forwards. And the requests are already rolling in! So, thanks again and travel well. Fondest regards, Di. - Sydney

Have just finished the last stage of my first FS consult. The client had been very low for a long time. There was such synchronicity in the whole session and we were so in tune, that he emerged totally enthused. Has gone off to organize getting his whole premises redecorated and reorganized during the Xmas break. It was such an inspiring experience.   Thanks for passing on such wonderful knowledge, and for getting us to a stage that we are able to get out there and apply it. Sydney Student

 Thank you for everything - studying feng shui this past year has been the most rewarding trip - centering chi has brought all the most wonderful events to my door (Ming tang)

I was able to attend Roger Green's Module 1 in San Francisco (presented by The Golden Gate School of Feng Shui). During 2002, in New York City, I actually completed Modules 2, 3, and 4. I originally started with Module 2 having only read about Feng Shui. Because of Roger's concise and structured way of teaching, I never felt as though I was handicapped by not attending Module 1. In retrospect, I found it very stimulating and exciting to go back to "square one" with the knowledge I had acquired. I am looking forward to completing the course...Roger has so much information to give his students. Angela, New York, NY

“After just half a day of studying with Roger Green I knew without a doubt that I had chosen the right teacher, the right school, and the right community of people to spend the year with on my way to becoming a feng shui practitioner. Roger’s knowledgeable, articulate and well-grounded teaching style (along with years of teaching experience), the integrity of the program put together by the Golden Gate School of Feng Shui, and the interest, commitment, and background of the other students makes me feel completely confident that I am going to benefit immensely from this experience both personally and professionally. I am very grateful for having this opportunity so close to home.”
