Why a Feng Shui assessment is just as important as a Pest and Building inspection.

Before you move in to your dream home, have you asked the question?

Why are they selling?

Many of us take the time and spend the money to get a Pest and Building inspection on our prospective new home. There could be minor adjustments or large home improvements proposed. We make an informed decision to buy and determine a purchase price given the proposals in the report and whether we feel it is worth the effort.

What if you could make an informed decision to buy based on a report that detailed whether the prospective home was ideal specifically for you and your family’s health, harmony and financial stability? Isn’t this just as, if not, more important as the structure supporting the members inside?

In this time of economic downturn, rising divorce rates and split family units we need to do all we can to protect our most treasured assets – our family, our health and our future financial stability.

Feng Shui is an effective tool for pinpointing problem areas and good fortune in any environment. Feng Shui is not just about correct placement of objects and furniture. It is also about harnessing unseen energy in the correct way, keeping spaces clutter free and being in harmony with the external environment and landscape. By understanding the energy in a home or room, we can use this information to support prosperity and minimise sickness and misfortune.

A traditional Feng Shui assessment can give you the comfort of knowing the unseen energies that affect your health, relationships and prosperity in your home. It will give you real and practical recommendations on how all aspects of your life can be optimized in the house you are preparing to purchase or move in to. Given these recommendations you can assess what these adjustments mean to you so you can make a meaningful purchase decision for your family’s happiness in the home.

A good indicator of how a home’s energy is being utilised is in knowing - Why are they selling?

If you get answers similar to: couple divorcing; deceased estate; family member sick and so on then the house itself could be causing these reasons. It may have been that the main bedroom was conducive to extramarital affairs for the husband, or invoked sickness in women who slept there. The front entrance may be inauspicious.

On a positive note, if the owners are up-selling to a better neighbourhood, then the front entrance or backyard pool could be placed in a very prosperous position.

A Feng Shui assessment will tell you if this is the case and propose for example: ideal bedrooms for each member of the family; where there are multiple entrances to the house - which one is more suitable to use for a period of time; which areas to activate to attract prosperity and so on.

Every person, couple and family is different. While the energies within a home are the same for a period of time, the new occupants bring their own energies and fortune. How one family experiences life in a home may be different to how another family experiences life in the same home. Each assessment needs to look not only at the home, but the people who will live in it, what rooms they will use and the time they will live there.

FengShui by Sakura works with home buyers and commercial setups to assess suitability of a prospective new home or office for the individuals that will live and work there. The assessment can save you years of grief and expenditure down the track and bring joy and harmony to your family.

From external landscape to internal décor and colour usage, a Feng Shui assessment will not only make your home support you but give you great tips for colour usage, position for ornamental displays and landscape features to help you settle in sooner.

Once you have purchased your dream home and prior to moving in, you want to maxmise the benefits of your Feng Shui recommendations. De cluttering your rooms and performing a Space Clearing exercise will magnify your experience. FengShui by Sakura offers both DIY Space Clearing Kits and a Space Clearing Consultation service.

Space Clearing is recommended for any new occupant, but the effects of Space Clearing are noticeable in areas prone to collecting stagnant and negative energy such as rooms or houses that:

• are closed up
• remain unoccupied for a while
• are not well ventilated
• do not get a lot of sunlight
• have irregular shapes
• are cluttered with objects, books and belongings
• have had a history or marital break up and arguments
• have had a history of sickness or death.

De cluttering and Space Clearing will make your home or office sparkle and provide occupants with renewed energy and opportunity. Residual energy will build up again, but like spring cleaning, the exercise should be repeated annually.
