Feng Shui Solutions

Vastu originated in India, and Feng Shui originated in China. Both aim to solve similar problems by applying similar principles, which is to establish harmony between nature and life. The only difference is that Feng Shui provides various tool- or item-based solutions without altering the structure.

Feng Shui provides excellent results and corrects some of the major Vastu defects. Feng Shui is simply the practice of arranging things around you to gain positive results.

If the shape of the house is not square or rectangular, locate the missing corner and install mirrors on the wall of the missing corner. This method corrects the defect according to Feng Shui.

In the picture on the left, the North-East corner is missing from the house. This is a major Vastu defect, and such a house will have no prosperity. According to Feng Shui, two mirrors can be fixed on the east and north walls adjacent to the missing area, as shown in the picture.

The bottom edge of the mirror should rest on the floor. Always use a single length of mirror — in other words, you should not use more than one mirror to make up the length. This solution requires no alteration to the existing architecture of the house.

You may have a building where a central direction sector is fully or partially missing.

In the picture shown on the right, the North room or space is missing. This will cause a loss of wealth in the house and for the family members.

As above, one mirror should be fixed on the north wall, as shown in the picture, to overcome this defect. The mirror should be a single piece and should rest on the floor.

Bagua or Pakua Mirror: A Pakua mirror is used to dispel negative energies that enter our house through the main door.
A Pakua mirror consists of a round convex mirror mounted at the center of an octagonal-shaped plate. On the plate, all sectors are represented with their respective colors and symbols. The octagonal plate is made of high-grade plastic, stone, or wood to withstand outdoor use. This mirror should not be used inside the house.

Mandarin ducks are made of high-quality wood and conform to the guidelines of Feng Shui. A pair of ducks consists of a male and a female, and they should always be kept together, side by side, without facing one another. The mandarin ducks should be placed anywhere in the master bedroom, where they can be easily seen upon entering the room. This keeps the couple happy.

Natural quartz crystal enhances positive energies. Crystals can be placed in various parts of the house to enhance the energy levels of a specific area. For example, if a crystal is hung in the North-West corner of the building or in the North-West room, it improves relationships between family members. It also improves financial matters and brings good luck.
Keeping a crystal pyramid enhances purity and concentration, and absorbs negativity.

Vastu defects can be corrected by using crystal balls in the kitchen, bathroom, or wherever the main door faces the kitchen, etc.

A wind chime is an important item in Feng Shui. It should consist of five metal rods in white or silver color. You can keep a wind chime in your house or office in the North-West corner or North-West room. You can also place it on the west side of the house. A wind chime brings happiness to the family, new opportunities, money, and prosperity.

Place wind chimes in a dark corner of a room to channel more positive energy and life into that area. Wind chimes are useful for livening up north-facing entrances, which tend to be quiet and dull. Using metal wind chimes in such areas can channel more energy into the house.

Wind chimes can be placed at the entrance to allow greater energy and vitality to enter the house.
