4: The back garden
should be larger than the front, look for balance.
5: Try and avoid having a long narrow path leading to your front door, try
and have a windy path and not straight. Do not plant trees too close to
the front door, this will not let Chi enter the house freely. If you
already have a straight path place some plant pots or statues along the
line to break up the line of the path.
6: Avoid a house or office with a spiral staircase, it turns positive
energy into negative, if you have one already hang a faceted crystal
sphere at the top to try and slow it down. It won’t cure it but it will
help. A shame really because I really like this type of staircase to look
at.
7: Avoid swimming pools, gazebos, patios, ponds or any other structure in
the garden that dwarf the house, try and do everything in proportion to
the house, garden or room, having a fireplace in a living room which is
far too big is not good Feng Shui.
8: When buying a new house or office try and go for a regular shaped
property, avoid properties that have odd looking designs, the best shape
is the good old rectangle or square, if it has a few extensions sticking
out here and there don’t worry too much as they can be easily rectified.
** TIP ** Do not have clutter in your office; desks must be kept tidy and
clutter free. This is so important, an office in China would not have
paper trays on desks, and many UK and USA companies now employ the same
approach. I have just looked at my desk, oops, how does that saying go?
“Practise what you preach” that’s why I love writing these newsletters, it
reminds me of what I should be doing, I just had a good clear out.
9: Can you remember the last time you looked up at the clouds in the sky
and saw the shape of a tiger a dog or your Aunty Ethel; it is amazing what
you can make out of the clouds in the sky. When looking at a new house or
office, try and look at the building as if you were looking at the clouds,
I see so many houses on my travels that resemble creatures or certain
structures (makes me sound a bit crazy that statement), a house I saw last
week in Essex reminded me of a ferocious animals mouth, the brickwork
around the two main windows in the centre gave the impression that they
were animals teeth, or a house recently I saw looked like a prison tower
on one side. Also check shadows that are cast on the house, do they
resemble anything hostile? Try and choose a regular shaped property and
let your imagination run wild when viewing it, try and look for any
resemblance to anything bad in the shape of the building but don’t forget
to look for the good points.
