Bad Fengshui and Solutions

In Ancient China, Qi (energy) was classified into ‘Sheng Qi’ (positive energy) and ‘Sha Qi’ (negative force). In your home, those beneficial to your body and mind are called positive energy while those with bad impacts are regarded as the negative/bad, which falls into several types, namely ‘Qi Sha’ (caused by smell), ‘Feng Sha’ (caused by wind), ‘Guang Sha’ (caused by light), ‘Xing Sha’ (caused by form), ‘Lu Sha’ (caused by road), ‘Sheng Sha’ (caused by sound) and ‘Shui Sha’ (caused by water) etc. It is advocated to deal with bad Feng Shui by covering, blocking, converting, fighting, preventing and other means.

 

The evil spirits in Feng Shui are from the Qi (energy) field. When the energy field of your house is in balance, your family will be in stable luck; but once it changes, your family fortune will be subject to certain influences. The two kinds of power that can influence energy field include planetary aspects, such as flying stars and dark power, such as Feng Shui items and physical energy.
