Classical Feng Shui: How Do I Know if I Need Feng Shui?

You’ve tried everything: you’ve used best practices in your business, you’ve tried to work things out at home. But no matter what you do, things either stay “stuck,” or they stay out of control. Often, when nothing you do is working you need to address the unseen energies shaping your life. Everything in the universe is made up of energy. Every single day, we come into contact with a multitude of energies — from the people we encounter to the environments in which we live and work.  These energies can be beneficial (bringing in prosperity) or they can be negative (creating obstacles and misfortune).  The ancient sciences of Classical Feng Shui and Vaastu reveal how your environment is affecting your career, money luck, health and relationships.  But Feng Shui and Vaastu can do even more. Let’s look closer:

1. What you don’t know — or don’t believe — can still hurt you. Ignorance is not bliss.  Correctly done, an authentic Classical Feng Shui and Vaastu consultation can use time-tested mathematical formulas to reveal if a building is prone to fire, burglary, ill health or even legal hassles. Should it scare you to know of such dangers? Not necessarily. By knowing in advance you can exercise extra caution and even put remedies in place to minimize or even completely avoid a negative event.  There are even ways to turn around “negative energies” and use them to your advantage — this is included in the monthly advice I give my corporate clients, for example.

A very close friend of mine moved into a home that clearly indicated the potential for tumors and cancer.  Before she moved in, I told her what I saw. She loved the house and said she didn’t believe in negative energies. “Besides,” she said, “I can defy negative energies with positive intentions.” Well, whether or not we believe in the law of gravity, we are all affected by it. The same can be said about the unseen energies around us. Five years after moving into the house my friend was diagnosed with breast cancer.

2. What you do know with Feng Shui can alter your destiny. When authentic Classical Feng Shui and Vaastu are done correctly, there are ways to manipulate or even alter energies to help us get what we want. Suppose, for example, a couple is having great difficulty conceiving a child. A New Age Feng Shui consultant might simply say to put “baby trinkets” in the west or “children’s sector” of the home. This isn’t just silly, it can be downright heartbreaking when months continue to go by without any hope of a child.

It takes powerful Feng Shui to alter powerful energies. That’s why authentic Classical Feng Shui can make such a difference. In fact, before the couple spends thousands of dollars on in-vitro fertilization, Classical Feng Shui can actually help tap into powerful energies that can make it easy to conceive. Plus, a trained consultant can calculate the best time for sexual relations to occur, further enhancing the likelihood of conception.

3. Is it a bad economy … or bad Feng Shui? Whatever is happening in your life is a direct reflection of what is happening energetically in your home. So, if you’re currently going through a rough time financially, you might need Feng Shui to help you figure out why clients are canceling, work is falling through, and there is not enough money. Instead of being a victim of bad economics, you might really be under the influence of bad energies that are sabotaging and suppressing your money luck.  Negative energy could also be the culprit if you’re struggling with a pattern of car accidents, legal hassles, or other bad news. The good news, however, is that authentic Feng Shui can not only pinpoint – and help neutralize – the energies creating obstacles to health, happiness and prosperity, a good consultant can also help you activate and harness positive energies.

So, who really needs Feng Shui and Vaastu? Most everybody! Because at some point in your life you’re going to come up against negative energies that you just can’t seem to get past. When that happens – when you experience repeated obstacles, misfortune or stagnation — an authentic Feng Shui consultant can make all the difference!
