What To Expect From A Feng Shui Consultation?
There are tons of feng shui shows on the TV, where viewers can send in their questions and the Master would answer them on the show. Most people seem to be confused about what to expect from a feng shui consultation. On the other, people are not even sure if the feng shui consultation is for real or not. Therefore, we have formulated an article, which will discuss everything involved in a real feng shui consultation.
How to Select The Right Feng Shui Consultant?
Probably, one of the most troubling aspects to feng shui is to find a real property inspector. If you wish to get the right feng shui consultant, you must ask for their qualifications, experience, references and their background. Do not hesitate to ask about the subject of feng shui they deal with or about the system of feng shui they usually apply. There are several feng shui consultants these days, so look around. Tell your consultant about your reasons for conducting a feng shui consultation and check if your consultant can help you with your case. For an instance, some feng shui consultants may possess an expertise with landed houses but might not the required experience for handling apartments or condominiums. As a matter of fact, you must undertake a consultation only if you want an aspect of life to improve. If things are going well in your life, you don’t need to hunt for a feng shui consultant.
Identify a Quack
Most feng shui consultants go to sessions in professional office attire. Do not expect or trust the ones that come dressed in flowing robes or sporting incense sticks. Do not trust those who usually advice to “activate” or “enhance” your home with different kinds of items. These are the consultants who carry these items with them and come with a large suitcase. There are numerous con artists who claim that the house is infested with bad energy and they would demand a large sum of money to have it all fixed. Take it as a warning and beware of such consultants. Lastly, there is no secret formula to generate wealth with feng shui, therefore do not trust those who will tell you that they have created millionaires and can help you become one as well.
What Does a Feng Shui Consultation Involve?
A proper feng shui consultation will involve the inspection of your external surroundings before assessing the internal layout of your home. The “qi” originates from your external areas and cannot be generated by objects inside your house. Your consultant must be able to verify the presence of qi in the environment in order to harness it for more benefits. You would see him working on an energy map or making calculations after taking the relevant directions and measurements. These are known as the “natal maps” of your home and may look like tic-tac-toe grids. A genuine feng shui consultant will ask for the date as well as the time of birth of the owner of the property. If you come across a consultant who walks around the house spotting errors with the colors of the walls or commenting on the placement of furniture, you have probably hired a wrong feng shui consultant

Using The Power of qi to Improve the Feng Shui Potential in Our Homes
Most feng shui enthusiasts and beginners are plagued with the questions to understand the influences of location against direction. All you need is a clear understanding of how this power works. A renowned feng shui master in Hong Kong, Master Lee, interestingly said that one must never underestimate the power within any given location.
If you were to assess the events that have occurred in your life, or the experiences you might have come across or the opportunities presented to you, the following items are likely to play an imperative role in all of them.
However, we often miss the big picture. Most feng shui practitioners overlook the importance of taking a bird’s eye view of the location. You need to check and fix the major flaws in the external environment. For an instance, you must know where the building is located or what are the main roads and mountain ranges that govern the qi in that area. Ideally, our property must tap into the useful resources of the surrounding location. At the same time, we need to tailor the internal qi in accordance to our lives.
A house or office in the good direction will always prove helpful but choose the right location along with the right direction will spur a lot of positive effects. If your property were located in a disadvantaged location, it would usually negate the good effects generated while facing the good direction. Therefore, it is suggestive to position your main door, often referred to as the mouth of qi, in the right location besides placing it in the correct direction. You must always remember that location and direction are the two most important factors of feng shui and not the décor or the color. The colors of the walls or the curtains will never influence the qi in your house.
All feng shui enthusiasts might have heard of “luan tou”, also called the “landscape feng shui”. This is usually the area where you live, including the surrounding mountains and rivers. Environmental factors can play a crucial role in the effectiveness of feng shui. As a result, you need assess the current feng shui conditions in accordance to your area in large. Once you study the environment, you would know if the scales are tipping towards the positive or the negative and manage it accordingly. It is quite natural to get carried away with the internal feng shui concerns, however you must stop and look at things around you as well. Many a times, the problem may exist right outside your immediate living area.
If you were to assess the events that have occurred in your life, or the experiences you might have come across or the opportunities presented to you, the following items are likely to play an imperative role in all of them.
- The mountain and the water positions located around the vicinity of your residence
- The direction or the location of your main door
- The location of your kitchen and bedroom
