When to call in Feng Shui help 2022 edition

My article on "When to call in Feng Shui help" in 2009 is one of the most read and quoted in this blog.  Here I add more ideas again into this list.  Hopefully this may drum up some businesses for Feng Shui practitioners.  

WHEN TO CALL IN FENG SHUI CONSULTANT:

1. -- before you buy a new property or office
2. -- before you do remodeling of an existing property
3. -- before you add an extension or new level into your existing building
4. -- before you move into a new rental property
5. -- many unexpected and unpleasant events like burglary, fire, water-leaks, sickness and familial disharmony happened after moving into a new property
6. -- family members suddenly have unusually high incidence of accidents, losing jobs, lawsuit, health and money problems
7. -- serious health problems like cancer
8. -- health problems that cannot be explained or detected by modern medicine
9. -- multiple deaths in the family
10. -- children's academic performance suddenly drops like a rock
11. -- children become rebellious and secretive
12. -- family members do not like staying home or returning late
13. -- more arguments among family members
14. -- martial relationship suddenly turns toxic and affairs
15. -- problem in conceiving baby for female; sexual dysfunction for male
16. -- problem getting married for singles in the family
17. -- frequent nightmares
18. -- insecure feeling/ depression

20. -- problem getting sleep

22. -- losing good friendship/ social connections
23. -- debtors do not repay your loan even you know they have the funds
24. -- problem controlling temper before reaching menopause
25. -- declining wealth luck and financial problems
26. -- problem keeping or saving money
27. -- tranquil life suddenly turning tumultuous
28. -- the surrounding environment of your house has changed significantly like addition of tall buildings, bridge, road, pool. public toilet, big rock/ sculpture, removal or addition of big tree/s, garbage dump and the likes.
29. -- unexpected unfavorable career changes or lawsuits
30. -- stable job or career suddenly unpredictable and insecure
31. -- you feel your work performance is not fairly compensated nor recognized by your boss
32. -- (For business owners):  Both the management and employees work hard but the books are still in red or difficult to run.
33.  (For business owners):  When major supervisors/ managers change work or office locations, a Feng Shui audit is needed.
34. -- (For business owners):  Lots of bickering among employees and irrational turnover.

Finally, be very careful when you choose a Feng Shui practitioner.  If a person is in bad luck period, his/ her probability of running into a lousy Feng Shui practitioner is very high.  You may want to see a Bazi reader to check if your current situation is attributed to your destiny (birth chart) before getting Feng Shui help.

No money for Feng Shui?  No problem-- here is the minimalist Feng Shui for this year.

DIY psychological therapy

Nine years ago, I had written about an inexpensive psychological therapy:
http://kenlaifengshui.blogspot.com/2010/06/beating-up-mean-people-around-you.html

A few days ago, I saw this journal for sale in the World Market store:

This is a simple way to send your worries away.  You may even use your favorite plush animals instead of Worry Dolls by telling your worries to them.  The advantage of this method is that no one will spread your worries to the world.  Psychologists are pretty much doing the same thing-- listening to your worries, feeding back the worries to you and then charging you US$100- 200 per hour.  Your old worries may be gone but you have a new worry of paying the bills.

While I was a graduate student at the University of Minnesota 40+ years ago, I had assisted a social psychology professor to conduct a cross-cultural research on dreams.  I ran into an interesting folklore practice of handling nightmares in a certain Chinese region.  I still remember the details without checking any files.

When people in this Chinese region had a bad dream, they would write this poem on a city wall:

昨夜夢不祥，寫在西牆，各方君子讀一遍，解難消災。

"Last nite I have dreamed of inauspicious omen
I write this on the west wall
Gentlemen from all walks of life read this once
Will dissolve my misfortunes and disasters"

This method of self-counseling also keeps one's identity and nightmare secret.  It can be easily modified to handle other psychological events by replacing "dreamed of inauspicious omen" with other events.

In internet age, you may not want to write this poem on city wall.  You can post it on bulletin board or even online anonymously.

Easy Feng Shui fixes for bad luck

When life and things are great, people often think that the good life is "normal" and will last forever.   But Life is like a roller-coaster with many ups and downs. What goes up will go down someday.  

Without bad luck, there would be no good luck to contrast.  Sooner or later bad luck will catch up with anyone.

How do you know you are in a bad luck period?  Beside getting a Bazi reading, check the following list to see if you are in bad luck now:

1. Poor sleep or insomnia; nightmares or strange dreams
2. Eyelids tickling or ringing ears
3. Unstable emotion, easily irritated , throwing tantrums
4. Minor illness, pimples or swellings grow on face
5. Confusing mind and thought, unable to quiet down to think
6. Poor interpersonal relationship with relatives, friends and coworkers
7. Running into obstacles when doing anything.  Daily chores that are used to be a breeze are difficult to do well now.
8. Sudden breaking of everyday utensils, light bulbs, flooding, leaking pipes, machines or electronics.
9. Losing money and wealth without knowing the reason behind.   
10. Minor traffic accidents or car damages/ scratches
11. Your home suddenly has many flies.
12. Hit by bird pooh

If you run into 3+ of the above, you are in bad luck now.  But today is your lucky day.  You can follow the simple Feng Shui fixes below to alleviate or reduce the effect of your bad luck:

1. Do a major cleaning of your house.
2. Switch to a different bedroom to sleep
3. Change the head-pointing direction of your bed or move your bed location
4. Donate or throw away old or damaged objects like clothing, furniture and etc.
5. Re-arrange your furniture
6. Rearrange your closet and remove/demote rarely used old clothing and shoes.
7. Adjusting your sitting position at home and office (change the facing direction, make sure there is a wall at the back of your chair) or simply change the sitting location.
8. Remove any Feng Shui fountain if it has been in the same location for over a year.
9. Take a short out-of-town vacation or day trip to change your energy fields
10. Invite friends to your home for partying, to warm up the energy of your house.
11. Go to a temple or church to pray
12. Do some volunteering work helping people or animals
13. Donate money to charity
14. Feed homeless cats or dogs
15. Avoid going to cemetery, funeral and hospital.

If the above fixes do not fix your bad luck, you may have some serious problems.  You need to consult a Bazi reader and/or Feng Shui practitioner to design more personalized remedies.
