Feng Shui For Your New House

By: Rick Martin Home | Home-and-Family


The legacy of the Chinese culture long traveled across the borders of the nation who created it and made known to the rest of the world concepts such as Ying and Yang, acupuncture and feng shui. Out of these three, the latter seems to gain more and more popularity each day, teaching us the ancient Chinese practice of placement and arrangement of a space in such a way as to achieve the harmony between man and nature.

The terms Feng shui can be translated in English as 'wind' (feng) and 'water' (shui). The core element of traditional feng shui is Qi (or Chi), a spiritual energy, a virtual life force. Fengshui guidelines remind us that life exists in every element of Mother Nature. Qi is considered the source of life, the energy to be encountered within our home, its surroundings and the little things we come across every day. Traditional feng shui brought forward an updated modern variety of fengshui which still preservs the common goal of improving the flow of energy co-working with nature.

Today, fengshui principles are used in determining the best location of a new house, the number of rooms and their positioning according to the personality of the new residents, date of birth and expected date for move in. The best way to take advantage of the fengshui rules is to contact feng shui experts for advice and teachings. This is very easy to do if you visit fengshuiteller.com and contact professionals who will be more than happy to help you. By providing accurate reports, recommendations or tips on fengshui methods, they might be the most benefic persons to come in contact with before moving into a new house.

Traditional feng shui refers to location and orientation dwellings, land, landscaping, or the interior space of a property. No one wants to interfere with the smooth positive flow of qi and bring upon bad luck and misfortune, so feng shui is the best start point for decoration and future positive energy in your home. Between location and orientation, the former is of far greater importance. This fact happens to coincide with the very modern principle of choosing a house or a place to build one, but there are many other things you should consider or fengshui tips you should be aware of before making your final choice, all of them being clearly presented on fengshuiteller.com. The philosophy of feng shui covers a wide area of interests, from the influence of the surroundings upon the house and the influence of the house upon the residents, to the interior structure design, colors and benefits brought by wind chimes, crystals, mirrored balls or table fountains on people's life, health, fortune, career or finance.

If you are looking for a house or for a place to build one, then you should keep in mind that the perfect location has a mountain landscape in the back and a scenery with a lake, sea, river or ocean in front of the house. What you should avoid is a dead-end road near your home, or the vicinity of a temple, church, graveyard or a slaughter house since they are all related to death (which disturbs the flow of energy). It has been noticed that a good feng shui comes into a square house, moderate in size, bright and tidy. Such a house should have rooms different in size and interior design according to their functions. A fengshui living room should be spacious, neither high nor low, making everyone feel comfortable and friendly, while the fengshui bedroom should be of restrained dimensions, but always full of fresh air to make the sleep better at night. According to the classic rules of feng shui, the most important corner of the house is the southeastern one, since this sector governs the cash flow and the faith one has in his ability to earn money.

The smooth movement of the qi inside the house should not be disturbed by misplaced furniture or other objects. As a decorating style, fengshui has strict rules related to interior design. The rules are very precise as they go all the way to establishing the proper positioning of the plants in the room. Purple, red and green are the colors which best support prosperity and positive energy inside the house. However, the lucky color might be different from one room to another and that's for feng shui practitioners to decide.
