About Feng Shui Compasses
The Chinese Fengshui Compass or Feng Shui Luo pan
Feng Shui Compass (Luo Pan) Luo means a net that encompasses everything and Pan means utensil or plate. This allegorically refers to the union of Heaven and Earth and specifically to the electro magnetic field that holds all matter together. Ancient China gave the world several of the mathematical and scientific concepts we take for granted today, such as the compass. The magnetic compass was invented in China for use by Feng Shui practitioners. Because of variations over time in the earth's magnetic fields, three compass systems were superimposed over each other during the span of half a millennium to establish the compass that Feng Shui practitioners use today.
以下說明摘录自《中國風水羅盤》：羅盤，古稱羅經、羅鏡、經盤、羅經盤、子午盤、針盤、風水羅盤，是中國古代堪輿家從事堪輿活動必可少的重要工具。 羅盤盤面層次繁多，內容龐雜，原理玄奧，自五行八卦、干支甲子、節氣方位，到天文歷法、州國分野無所不包。 風水羅盤是利用磁針的磁極性來指示方向的，在磁針的四周置有方位盤，就可以利用指南針判定方位了，在方位盤上按照一定規律和原理排列一些有意義的字詞，就使得方位盤有了佔卜的意義和作用。風水羅盤就是這樣一種用于建築風水的佔卜工具。 從古代簡單的羅盤，發展至今日的復雜多樣的羅盤，經歷了幾千年的歷史，期間的許多真相已不得而知，只能從出土的和現有的實物，以及文獻資料去尋求一點斑駁的痕跡。

Luo means a net that encompasses everything and Pan means utensil or plate. This allegorically refers to the union of Heaven and Earth and specifically to the electro magnetic field that holds all matter together.
The Luo Pan has been developed for the past 2 000 years and every traditional Feng Shui master of note has added to it throughout this time. So the Luo pan contains the sum total of Feng Shui knowledge to date. There are 2 main types namely San he (triple combination) which is an elementary level and the advanced level of San Yuan (3 eras). There is also a combined Luo pan called a Zhong He and all of these Luo Pans can be purchased from this site. You can also get training in the application and use of the Luo pan through one of our accredited schools.
Luo Pans also come in various sizes ranging from 4 inches corresponding to the 4 seasons, 8 inches based on the Ba Gua and 12 inches for the 12 branches. Some rings are paired and cannot not be used alone, some for direction only and some carry important messages associated with timing. Although looking extremely complex, by understanding the 5 elements you can quickly determine the auspiciousness of a direction through the use of the 24 mountains. Although most rings use 5 elements, there are some that are based on the 12 palaces and these stages of life range from birth through maturity to death and then re-birth. They tell us the strength of an element in a particular direction.
The different levels of feng shui information are contained in each ring of a Luo pan
