Master Kek was recently invited by Nobel Design, in association with Malaysian Developer UEM Sunrise out to some of their Iskandar developments to complete a reading on developments like Estuari Gardens and Residensi Ledang. According to Master Kek, “Feng Shui is harnessing the Qi, balancing the elements of Yin and Yang”.
Here are some tips from the master on what to look for when it comes to feng shui:
1| Your home should be positioned in the north-south orientation
The first area to focus on at your home is the exterior. The optimal direction is a north-south orientation. The north direction is the Yin element and the south direction is the Yang element. Getting this balance will create prosperity on the premises. Famous examples include the Forbidden City in Beijing and the Taj Mahal in Agra.
2 | The front door should not be on the axis.
So if your front door is lined up with your neighbour then that will definitely create a problem. It is said to elevate the chances of conflicts between the two houses. If you can have a diagonal direction of both the main doors, then this will slow down the energy. Finally, ensure there is plenty of space in the front of your home to ensure energy can flow in.
3| Square spaces are good
As we move inside the premises, it’s important for the interior to be a square structure. This allows for energy to accumulate. In practical terms, this means you have more space to place furniture and the rooms feel more spacious. Thus allowing for a smooth flow of Qi. What do you receive for following this design layout? More happiness and prosperity.
4| Other house features
Other important factors to consider: is there water in the centre? Water located in the centre will retain energy and if it is moving then it will spread energy out within the premises. Are there pillars within the room? Ideally it’s beneficial to not have any. Pillars have a tendency to obstruct the flow of energy causing it to breakdown within the different rooms. This can cause poor health and a lack of wealth for individuals living inside the home. Finally, it is important not to have the main front door facing a window. Energy will flow straight out of the home and possibly your wealth as well.
Master Kek also explained how your surroundings can affect your Feng Shui. It’s good to have a quiet and cosy environment. Why? It allows for energy to be smooth and calm within the home. A natural habitat recovers and replenishes energy, while having a lion or dragon shape will protect you.
