Feng
Shui Consultations Europe
Cantonese Chinese, born in Singapore in 1962. I had a
successful career in marketing and public relations in hotels and business clubs
both in Singapore and Hong Kong in the 80s. I met Ian, my husband, twelve years
ago and left Hong Kong to live in the United Kingdom. I now live in Barcelona,
Spain and own a Feng Shui consulting practice. I am fluent in Cantonese,
Mandarin, English and I speak adequate Spanish. My mother is a fervent Feng Shui Practitioner specialising in the Four
Pillars (Ba Zi). She has been a Taoist all her life and gained her knowledge of
Feng Shui through her own mother. I remember her always advising my sisters,
brothers and myself on what we should do not only at important moments of our
lives such as academic or career choices but also on issues like which room
would be better and how it should be decorated when sharing an apartment. It was in Hong Kong that I became fully aware of the practical importance of
her teaching for it was here that I met two Feng Shui masters who were being
consulted by the hotels where I worked. Through my involvement with these
projects, I developed a fuller understanding of the application of Feng Shui
principles particularly in a non-domestic context, which then led me to attend a
Feng Shui course with one of the masters, Master Si Cheng Hua, over a period of
one year. This experience inspired me to intensify my studies of the theory and
practise of Feng Shui, which I have continued diligently over the last thirteen
years to the extent that it has now become a passion. As well as the training
received from my mother and Master Si plus the time spent on many Feng Shui
courses and seminars, I have been trained to a Master Practitioner level by
Lillian Too, the Feng Shui expert of Southeast Asia. I practise Feng Shui in
everything the family does and, as a family, we all believe in its potency if
observed and practised correctly. For three years we have been living in the hills of Alt Penedes just 50km
outside Barcelona. Feng Shui in
Barcelona was relatively unknown until four years ago and it is only now that it
is becoming more understood and accepted. The Alt Penedes, which is famous for its superb wines and cava, is an area
where working on and with the land has been and still is a way of life. Although
possibly unaware of Feng Shui as a philosophy, through their closeness to the
land, the local people are already practising Feng Shui on a very intuitive
level.

Shui In Spain With the support of Feng Shui Store
UK, I hope to increase the understanding of Feng Shui in Europe, and more
particularly in Spain, France, Italy and Holland. My philosophy is identical to
Michael & Jo as I only want to provide traditional and authentic Feng Shui
and not just a quick fix pop Feng Shui that many inexperienced Practitioners
use. An authentic Feng Shui analysis
should be completed with an on-site investigation of the property on:
I understand why there is a high demand for “on-line” consultations. One
can achieve a complete analysis provided that complete information being data,
photos and descriptions are available for the analysis. The quality and accuracy
of the analysis depends greatly on the amount of information that is made
available. The more information we have, the more we can tell you. For
more information on our on-line consultations please click
here. What is Feng Shui? According to Chinese tradition, a
long time ago men dwelt in harmony with the laws of nature. Intercourse between
heaven and earth was close. The underlying principle of Feng Shui is to live in
harmony with the environment so that the energy surrounding us works for
us rather than against us. In the West, Feng Shui is viewed
sceptically by the analytical minded. It is hard to view Feng Shui as a science
as its principles cannot yet be proven by any scientific method. Please
note that, for the ancient Chinese, Feng Shui was only one part of the overall
philosophy of life. The philosophy of a person’s success is based on a
combination of the five areas of influence:
Is Feng Shui merely a philosophy? It is not just a philosophy as it
encompasses many practical tools and techniques. Is it a religion? Some practitioners consider it part
of their religious ritual. Please remember that, traditionally, rituals were
performed to avoid calamities and to expel evil in order to ensure a good life,
but it has no connection to religion today. When practised correctly, Feng Shui will:
·
Increase the
feeling of rightness with the world. ·
Replace
dissatisfaction with contentment. What
is this energy that encompasses Feng Shui? Ancient Indian spiritual tradition
speaks of a universal energy called Prana.
This energy is seen as the basic constituent and source of all life – the
breath of life. When we analyse the state of energy
within a property, three major points are observed: a)
The flow of
energy. The placement of furniture.
Doorways and passages are not blocked etc… b)
The yin and
yang aspect. By this we mean the balance
of light and darkness in every room, and in corners and hallways. c)
The
five elements.
Also known as “Wu Hsing” in Chinese. This is the interplay of the
five elements, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth and Metal in the form of objects or
colours, structures or features.
Synopsis
of what Feng Shui I practice.
What
does a Feng Shui analysis consist of?
I speak to my clients to find out
their birth dates, a history of the property and any particular objectives they
hope to achieve from my analysis. It may be that it is a home and office and
therefore the property has a dual function. I would need to know the type of
business so that I may introduce elements, which are compatible with their
profession. Once the
floor plan is done, we are then able to determine correctly the main element of
each sector of the property based on the Eight Mansions formula. We can then
allocate appropriate rooms for the individual members of the family and consider
the favourable directions to face for sleep and work which will give support.
Sample floor plan and Flying Star chart. With the same floor plan, we can
also determine whether the individual astrological zone, based on San He theory,
is afflicted by a bathroom or a kitchen. The interpretation of the
combinations of elements and its energy also includes the annual chart, which is
fairly technical as are several aspects of Feng Shui. It is always easier to work with a
property when it is in its architectural or designer’s proposal stage where we
make sure walls, doors and windows are placed correctly. However, do not fret,
it is very unusual that we recommend knocking down walls. The Feng Shui of a
house can change tremendously with very little and subtle changes. Feng Shui to me is not just faith.
It is a fact of life. Although Feng Shui developed during vastly different
times, it does have a direct relevance to the modern world. If you would like details and cost of a consultation in Spain, France, Italy or Holland please fill in the details below or if you would like details on a UK consultation please visit this page
