Here are some Feng Shui observations and guides to Property Hunting or changes we can make in our own properties: - Period 8 – during the 20 years from Feb. 4, 2004 to Feb. 4, 2024, it is desirable for a building to be located with real mountains in the northeast, and real Water (lake or ocean) in the southwest. The same requirements apply to a city/town; the people will do well if the city/town has real mountains in the northeast and real Water (lake or ocean) in the southwest. · Road approach – Winding roads are better than straight roads, it is especially inauspicious when a straight road is heading straight towards the front of the building or front window in most instances. · Exterior Forms – the building is well supported by the Four Celestial Animals:
. Fence – good to have as protection. · Trees – well trimmed and maintained, should not overshadow the building, especially when it is directly in front of the front door. · Healthy vegetation – areas of green pasture/lawn and beautiful gardens. · Plentiful and healthy wild life in rural areas. · Building and neighbourhood have good history and harmonious relationships. · Hydro poles, boxes, pylons – not directly in front of the front & side doors and large windows. · Building shapes – consider the Yin/Yang aspect & the Five Elements relationship: Basically the colours should be pleasing to the eye, no extreme combinations, especially with the use of red and black. The space is preferably in a regular square shape, with an open centre.
· Building colours – neutral colours, earth tones, off whites and yellow are the safest colours. · Swimming pool/hot tub/pond – the location has to be sited with great care. According to the traditional Chinese Feng Shui teachings, moving water activates Qi, which can have auspicious or inauspicious qualities, do please consult a certified Feng Shui professional on the implications. · A large body of water behind a house has to be backed by a big mountain or large structure. · Pathways – no straight lines, curves are more desirable. · Line of vision from front door & windows – no Poison Arrows, i.e. nothing in a narrow straight line or creates any sharp corners. · Garages/out buildings – uncluttered, clean and tidy. · Lighting – bright and well lit, especially in hallways, pathways, outside entrances and in the garden. · Beware of high voltage electrical boxes in close proximity to the building. · Avoid swampy areas, being too close to cemeteries, garbage dumps, industrial areas and busy highways/roads.
