When lots of practitioners in the West are of the "magical home energy" kind, does it make any difference what the Chinese term really means?
If in Chinese it just means the equivalent of "interior design", who here would object? There's no mystical implications, and everyone everywhere agrees interior design experts can have good advice (and are also capable of outrageous misses and dumb advice as well).
In the West, calling it Feng Shui has implications. Bear in mind it was brought up in a discussion of Tarot, so let's not be disingenuous and pretend there's no undercurrent of the mystical here.
