Well quite. And to make it worse, following bazzz's incomplete instructions wouldn't have worked anyway.

I also read somewhere about making the numbers of your house add up to 8. Any other tips would be great.

Kids now think I'm completely barking but if it works......
Rubie,
Great to see you are researching Feng Shui, there are some good books and info on the sites of the people I studied under.

Classical Feng Shui and Chinese Astrology
Master Chan Kun Wah http://www.masterkwchan.com/
and Derek Walters an English Master http://www.suite101.com/article.cfm/...english/116922

Electromagnetic Fields with Roger Coghill of Coghill Research Laboratories http://www.cogreslab.co.uk/

Geopathic Stress with Richard Creightmore and many others
http://www.beech-hill-college.com/ht...ic_stress.html

Plus many others too numerous to mention

Rubie every house is different, Feng Shui is like looking at the horoscope of a property. It is all about the time it was built, the direction to the nearest degree it faces and the topography of the location. It should never be looked at alone without consulting the Chinese Horoscopes of the inhabitants of the property. It is very powerful and I do not mean to upset anyone, but if a doctor makes a mistake with a patient it will effect that person, but a feng shui consultant can effect all the inhabitants of a property if they get it wrong. It takes a week to do a full analysis of a house and it's occupants and hours going over it in person. When it comes to selling properties there are a few factors that can be looked into to see what is happening.
Many large corporate companies use it especially in Asia. Walt Disney have used it in Hong Kong. None of them make any major decisions without consulting their Feng Shui Masters. Feng Shui is the prescription, Chinese Astrology is the diagnosis.
If you would like me to check out your property pm me and I can let you know what info I need.

It is not add up to 8 it is the number 8. It is the wealth star from 2004 till 2024. The chinese pay a fortune for number plates with all 8's. My number plate is 888.

It's either a failure of science education or the triumph of cynical marketing. Either way it leaves a nasty taste in the mouth.

I have done many consultations to earn money for charities and many just because I want to help.
It works for these guys

Well, yeah. There's no such thing as bad publicity, right?

....well I can't believe this! Had a phone call from Estate Agent this morning!! Someone else wants to view our house !! Second viewing in 2 days since using Feng Shui! We hadn't had a viewing since last October/November.

Thanks so much for your help Dhyan.

Bazzz sometimes it's just a case of people opening their minds, we are not asking you to have a belief in Feng Shui or to agree with what we are doing, just because you don't believe doesn't make us wrong. Neither are we suggesting that everyone should try it. It's fine that you don't believe and that you disagree but I have tried everything to sell my house. It's a large sized, 3 bed detached new build house, no work needing to be done to it, it is immaculately decorated, the carpets are all less than a year old as are all of the Stainless Steel NEFF appliances in the kitchen, it is in a quiet cul de sac, large garden. My house is always immaculately tidy and clean, we have no clutter and we on the market below market value, but we can't sell it despite using different agents, dropping our price etc etc. We also live in what has become a depressed area where one of the towns bigger employers are about to make a lot of redundancies. We leave for Red Deer in less than 3 weeks and will be paying a mortgage and rent...Our time for sceptism is gone, I initially crumpled my nose up and my MIL laughed at me when I mentioned Feng Shui, but we decided it was worth a go, after all who am I to suggest that half of the Eastern world is wrong in their beliefs and also what did we have to lose?

Anyway, the good news is we have another viewing and we are waiting to hear from our agents about the other viewing.

Good Luck to everyone else in the same boat!

Julie

Why can't half of the "Eastern World" be wrong? People are generally stupid and when they don't understand how things happen, they seek explanations and readily believe what other people will tell them, regardless of how daft they are. Like little baby jesus.

Your house will not get sold because of increased flow of chi, or any other superstitious bullshit (largely because there's no such thing as chi).

What great news - who cares whether other people think your barmy. It really doesn't matter as long as you're getting results.

Fingers (and everything else) still crossed for you - or is that superstition? I'm turning to everything.

Good luck!!

You carry on your good work in using Feng Shui to help
people Paradisefound.
I heard that the City Hall in Richmond,BC is designed according
to Feng Shui.Out of curiosity,I think I am going to go in there
to see and feel what it is like.That place is only 40mins
from home and I have been procrastinating because of
the traffic.

She's not doing it to help people. She's doing it to line her pockets with the money of the gullible.

Well the only sensible thing is to tell them all about Feng Shui so they can finally sell their house too. What harm can it do?

Other than the prospective buyers backing rapidly away from any dealings with a raving simpleton.

No - but from looking at Dhyans post I think I've done it wrong! May be I've had the opposite effect!!
