Company Invents Feng Shui Underpants

A HONG Kong company has just the thing if your horoscope is looking a bit worrying for the coming Lunar New Year.

Feng shui underpants.

The lucky smalls designed by Yeung Tin Ming, a master of the ancient Chinese craft of feng shui, will ward off evil spirits and bring harmony, Life Enhance, the company seeking to bring the wisdom of ancient China to the mass market, claims.

"Our feng shui master says that having something lucky in contact with your skin would bring spiritual balance, so we thought lucky underpants would be ideal," Life Enhance spokeswoman Amy Law said.

"They are as intimate as you get."

Feng shui advocates believe good fortune can be generated by arranging everyday objects in a way that guides invisible energies and "spirits" from all things.

It is a key part of the ritual surrounding the Lunar New Year, as each 12-month cycle ushers a different set of spiritual forces and believers will spend time rearranging furniture and schedules to optimise spirit flows.

Millions of Chinese around the world next week will welcome the new year of the rooster, the next in a recurring 12-year horological cycle.

Ancient belief is that each year reflects the character of its associated beast, and the coming 12 months are expected to be volatile as roosters are considered unpredictable.

"Feng shui advocates believe good fortune can be generated by arranging everyday objects in a way that guides invisible energies and "spirits" from all things."
