Contemporary Training for the Practice of the Ancient Art of Feng Shui
2007-2008
Here before you is a gateway. One opening to an understanding of the natural interconnection between all things in this universe. The nature of our existence is an interplay, uniting us with our environment, uniting every thought and feeling we may have with the world that we experience, uniting the tangible and intangible, uniting form and mind. When we change a space, we change an inner world. When we shift our inner awareness, the world outside begins to change.

“Feng shui is about harnessing the chi, the life-force energy which ripples water, creates mountains and propels us along our life pathway. With an understanding of Feng Shui comes the recognition of the vital connection between person and place, health, success and happiness.” —Manu Butterworth, Golden Gate School of Feng Shui Founder and Director

I welcome you to the world of Feng Shui as it appears through the eyes of the Golden Gate School of Feng Shui. The school has been growing by leaps and bounds in recent years, due to our unparalleled curriculum in the art and application of classical Feng Shui, our commitment to ecological responsibility, and our wonderful teachers and community. There is simply no other school in the world like ours. I find myself inspired almost daily when reading articles in mainstream magazines on ecological design, eco-responsible lifestyles and ‘greening our lives’. This inspiration and my own personal journey has led to the development of a curriculum which offers a strong focus on each of these areas, encouraging students to integrate ecological responsibility into their lives and communities. We now offer even more support and training in the practical aspects of starting a career as a Feng Shui practitioner. A successful career in this field has become an achievable one, and graduates from our program are particularly sought after by individuals and businesses alike. Over the years, I have witnessed our students experiencing some wonderful effects of their training with us; transformed lives, revitalized careers, improved family relationships, and renewed peace, enthusiasm and joy. This is one of the great rewards of my work. The seed we planted by founding the school in 2002 is now coming to bear even more fruit! We invite you to enjoy our catalogue, come to meet us at one of our free orientations, or call the school to speak to myself or one of our graduates. Dip your foot into the spring of Feng Shui, and I can ensure you a positive transformation in your own life and the lives of those around you. Rich Blessings,
Manu Butterworth Founder and Director, Golden Gate School of Feng Shui

our mission To
teach dedicated, passionate individuals the ancient principles of Feng Shui in a way that empowers them to apply these principles to their own environments and the environments of others. The grounded, practical application of these principles will create harmony, health, and well-being in the microcosms of homes, offices, landscapes, and lives. These revitalized microcosms will in turn effect the families, businesses, communities and environments within and around them, creating a ripple effect that expands outward into the macrocosm of the world as a whole. To this end, we directly nurture the entrepreneurship of our students, assisting them to develop into full-fledged, self-sustaining Feng Shui practitioners who make lasting contributions within their communities, and who are well-compensated for their contributions. Through this whole-system approach, we at the Golden Gate School of Feng Shui are dedicated to teaching students how to integrate these ancient arts with a thorough understanding of ecologically responsible models for our modern age.

form school
As the natural world we live in is increasingly subjected to harmful influences such as resource depletion, toxicity and EMFs (electromagnetic fields), our lives and well-being are affected on multiple levels. We teach you innovative strategies for creating natural, supportive environments that are ecologically responsible. This knowledge is an essential component of Feng Shui as it enables us (and our clients) to achieve optimum health and vitality through the use of sustainable building designs and materials. Topics include: • Human Ecology: understanding the relationship of our society to nature and ways in which we can repair it • Outdoor design: creating supportive microclimates and healthy habitats • The principles of sustainable and regenerative design
Form School is the most intuitive, integral and fundamental school of Feng Shui. While the essence of Form School is to create a solid foundation upon which the rest of the program is built, it also provides an array of immediately applicable tools with which to achieve your highest potential in your home, body, and the world at large. • How to cultivate auspicious chi (energy/life-force) and eliminate harmful influences • Principles and application of solar design • Design strategies for homes and businesses • Analysis of sites, buildings and individual rooms
• Natural remodeling • Creating community at home: urban eco-villages • EMFs (electromagnetic fields) • Resource cycles: sun, air, water, earth, goods, food, waste • Natural Building Materials
topography and land form
sensory nutrition/natural health
Ancient geomancers understood the relationship between the land and human destiny and in this way were able to influence currents of power and prosperity for emperors and kings. Today this wisdom is applied to enhance potential on a personal, institutional and community level.
A healthy relationship to our environment also includes our relationship to our body. We teach you to integrate ancient and modern solutions for creating well being, deepen our understanding of elements of our environment and learn how to use these wisely to preserve our vitality. This is strengthened by training in Chi exercises and Do In self massage. • Introduction to the principles of traditional Chinese medicine • Metaphysics, cosmology and astrology in health. • Chronobiology: getting our natural rhythm back • Light: how it affects our mind and body, and what kinds are best for us • Color: how to work with this powerful factor in our surroundings
• Feng Shui uses in the retail trade, marketing, and commercial settings • The effect of colors, shapes, logos, numbers, and artwork • The principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine • Food energetics and natural healing • Five Element Theory
You will be taught how to identify both the form and the spirit of the land. Ultimately, you will come to understand that form and spirit are intrinsically interconnected.
• Sound: how to recognize and deal with noise, and how to introduce healing sounds • Symbolism: the powerful effects of our environment’s message content • Air quality: toxins around us, and how to minimize them • Scent: essential oils distillation; reduce the negative effects of a toxic environment • Space: creating Sacred Space
Dragon Veins - Learn to recognize the invisible energies that traverse the land, locate ley lines, and determine auspicious sites. This will be further illuminated through the practice of dowsing and deepened awareness techniques.

Fen g Shui Cur r i culum
While we explore the intricacies of energy as it relates to space, it is also valuable to consider the individual as they relate to the world around them.
origins and history of Feng Shui, as well as an overview ent art. Through the study of Taoist philosophy we will e element theory and learn how to apply this potent rich and enhance our lives and others.
Four Pillars - An ancient system based on Taoist metaphysics and cosmology that reveals aspects of destiny, constitutional dynamics, and beneficial elements of an individual based on the hour, day, month and year of their birth. Through this sophisticated method, one can gather information about a client that is relevant to their Feng Shui assessment, as well as clearly reveal aspects of their character. Perhaps the most compelling capacity of this ancient method is its ability to accurately determine the element constitution of the subject.
compass school In relation to Form School, Compass School is the more analytical and scientific component of Feng Shui. Using the ancient map of the Lo Pan Compass as a reference, we explore what is illuminated when you combine the eight compass directions with the dynamics of yin/yang
Divination and Directionology - The roots of Chinese divinatory practices are said to stretch back 6000 years, to 4000 B.C. Central to this ancient tradition is the text known as the I Ching, also called the “Book of Changes”. This symbolic system reveals the cosmology that is the foundation of classical Feng Shui, Traditional Chinese Medicine, the science of Directionology, and ancient Chinese culture as a whole. Its philosophy focuses on the inevitability of change, the evolution of events as a process, and the dynamic balance of opposites.
the lo pan compass The Lo Pan compass is the indispensable tool of classical Feng Shui. Its numerous rings contain a vast body of knowledge that encompass classical Chinese philosophy, numerology and cosmology, and map the underlying principles of our study. We are pleased to include in this program one of the few English-language Lo Pan compasses in existence. This incredible tool will not only simplify the learning process, it will also make Feng Shui assessments much faster and easier. • Translate the I Ching compass reading into the context of a space • Locate the ‘xui’ - (the Feng Shui spot). • Master advanced use of the Western Lopan
• Understanding, constructing, and analyzing various charts such as the Natal Four Pillars chart and the Ten Year Luck Cycles • Determining auspicious and inauspicious timing for specific activities • Determining the most beneficial colors for an individual
• Identify the directionology associated with your year of birth and integrate it into your design
bagua . ba zhai . ming gua The “Bagua,” is the octagonal mandala consisting of the 8 compass directions (cardinal and inter-cardinal). This map is a vital element in the understanding and practice of advanced Feng Shui. We will explore more complex techniques, including the analysis of the Lo Shu (the “magic square” of Feng Shui) and how it informs the Ming Gua and Ba Zhai methods. These enable us to identify auspicious and inauspicious orientations for the individual and the dwelling. • Constructing the Bagua and understanding its innumerable applications • Ideal room location, door placement and orientation of furniture
• How to deduce important information about health and family relationships • Study and build a relationship with the I Ching • Learn how to identify and utilize auspicious directions (Ming Gua) • Nine Star Ki astrology to determine auspicious and inauspicious times for traveling or moving
flying star Flying Star is a technique that traces cycles of energy through time and weaves their ever-evolving influence into our analysis of space. This technique offers a very specific understanding of areas of fortune and misfortune within a dwelling based on its age and directional orientation.
