(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) It is not always possible to find an ideal location for your office or home. There could be a million tips in Feng Shui. But when you actually go looking for an ideal place, you will have to be extremely lucky to tumble upon something that has perfect Feng Shui. Even if you construct a home based on personalised Feng Shui calculations, it will have to be updated after a 20-year period. Energy changes every 20 years and what is valid or auspicious now will no longer be good after 20 years. There are many general rules one can follow, but they do not give you specific and accurate results. However, what will impact your property for years to come is your immediate surroundings. If your surroundings are not favourable then Feng Shui won't be that effective.
That brings me to another point - what needs to be avoided in your surroundings while picking a property. Anything remotely near a graveyard should be avoided and property facing hospitals is also not considered good. Don't get me wrong; I am not superstitious. But over the years with experience I have come to realise that these places are best avoided.
Years ago, I was hired by a big hotel chain to look at one of their properties in the USA. Upon arriving at the hotel, I realised that the energy seemed very calm and quiet for a big hotel chain. A bit of investigation with my compass revealed that the hotel was located near a graveyard. The Flying Star Feng Shui revealed that the graveyard was falling into one of the bad Stars and the Yin energy was not allowing the business to flourish. A change of main entrance and relocation of the coffee shop, helped the hotel to pick up business. However ideally, I would have preferred that the hotel not be built in such a location in the first place. Recently, I was contacted by the owner of a business in Europe, whose shop falls in the vicinity of a graveyard. He has not been able to succeed for years now. I am keen to visit the site next month to see for myself how the graveyard factor has affected his business.
On the other hand, last year a client contacted me complaining of constant headaches and health problems. A visit to his home revealed that his entire house was facing a hospital emergency ward. Needless to say that Flying Star calculations revealed that his illness was indeed aggravated by the hospital.
So before you rent or buy, look around your surroundings. The key to balanced energy lies outside your home sometimes!
