Some time ago, I received a call from a couple who were about to purchase a beautiful condo in an exclusive neighborhood. The closing was the next day and as a final reflection they asked me to look at the place and tell them if the energies in their future home were auspicious. I ran to the condo and what I found was creepy: the unseen energies in that condo had the potential to cause blood cancer. The couple was very upset: they loved the condo and had already pledged their “deposit” on the deal. Canceling the purchase would have been a big problem. So the wife returned to the building just “to look around.” As incredible as it sounds, she ran into a man who lived right above the condo unit she was thinking of buying.
They got to talking and the man told her that as much as he loved living in his condo, his enjoyment was tempered by the fact that he had been diagnosed with blood cancer shortly after moving into his condo. My client could not believe what he was hearing and he no longer hesitated to cancel the purchase of his condominium.
Now, when diagnosing any environment, we must calculate the interaction of the natal chart of the building and, if it is a condominium or apartment, the natal chart of the individual condominium unit. We must also evaluate the directional and planetary influences, as well as the dates of birth of the occupants. Obviously, this requires a professional consultation by a genuine Classical or Vaastu (Indian Feng Shui) Feng Shui practitioner. However, here are some general guidelines that point out the potential for negative health problems, as well as financial problems:
1. Broken windows. Windows that are literally shattered or broken can attract eye problems or distorted vision. They can also prevent a person from seeing things clearly in her life. Any broken window should be repaired as soon as possible.
2. A toilet behind the bed. Over time, a toilet that leans against the same wall as a bed has the potential to lead to kidney-related problems. If there is a toilet across a wall shared by your bed, relocate the bed to another wall in the room.
3. A Pillar or Column. Having a structural, or even decorative, pillar in the center of your home can lead to problems involving the abdomen or other organs in the abdominal area. Also regarding Vaastu, the central pillars are considered a major flaw. While a structural pillar can be difficult to remove, try to avoid placing decorative pillars in the center of your home.
4. Leaks. Constantly running water can attract endless expenses. Leakage can literally energize patterns that encourage high spending so that money flows in almost as soon as it comes in. If you can’t seem to control your money, don’t just check your spending clothes, but also look for leaks around sinks, toilets, washer-dryer connections, and pipes.
5. Broken steps. If the steps leading up to your house are broken or in disrepair, your house may be attracting poor financial health. Damaged front steps can fuel career difficulties for the head of the household and intensify energy patterns that cause expenses to outstrip income.
Truly, your home reflects your life. The energy in your home can also cause problems in your life, especially when it comes to health and financial health. If you have health issues or are thinking of purchasing a new home or commercial property, a professional Feng Shui or Vaastu consultation can literally save your life!
