The Pa Kua is an eight-sided symbol which signifies many of the secrets of feng shui. It is a special tool that is a central part of feng shui practice. It can be used for assessment or protection.

Each of the eight sides of the Pa Kua has several associations, including a direction, an element, a member of the family, and an organ.

Most significantly, on each side of the Pa Kua is one of the eight root trigrams of the I Ching. How these trigrams are placed around the different sides of the Pa Kua determines what kind of Pa Kua it is. There are two arrangements to these trigrams and therefore there are two kinds of Pa Kua: the Yin Pa Kua and the Yang Pa Kua.
