Feng Shui is fascinating to me and I have wanted to include information in our blog for our readers. Here is a post that was written by Carole Provenzale of Feng Shui Long Island & New York. She is one of my favorite Bloggers and is an expert in Feng Shui. This article is of interest with the increase in foreclosures and because we purchased a foreclosed home ourselves a few years ago. Thanks Carole and for our readers - enjoy!
New York Feng Shui and Real Estate: What about Foreclosures?
I received this email the other day from a person and thought I'd share it. Please NOTE: The opinions here are only MY OWN. I do know that many Feng Shui Consultants advise AGAINST purchasing Foreclosures. I have a different perspective.
Hi,
I have a question I was hoping you would answer. My husband and I would like to buy a home that is a foreclosure. I've read that in Feng Shui you should not purchase these homes because they would carry bad energy and you would be unlucky in them.
Is this true?Donna
Greetings, Donna,
I appreciate your question and I do know that many Feng Shui Practitioners believe that Foreclosures would not be a wise choice in purchasing a home. I have a somewhat different perspective to share.
As a Feng Shui Consultant in New York I have seen both Homes and Businesses that would not be advisable to purchase from a Feng Shui Perspective. Sometimes there is a bathroom in the "WEALTH" area or sometimes an area (gua) is missing completely.
We all do believe the ENERGY left in a home (known as Predecessor Energy) can become "stuck" and stay with the new occupants. Foreclosures are often left under sad circumstances and their may be grief or arguments left behind. This can also occur in ANY home you are looking to buy.
We also think about the Energy of the land on which the home is built and often don't know the history. In my OWN OPINION, I believe that if you truly love a space, it can overcome any negative energy. I have seen people flourish in homes that they had been advised not to buy.
Your own energy is very strong. What I would recommend is to buy a home you absolutely LOVE and you can have it blessed or cleared prior to moving in. You can do this yourself, call someone from your church or contact a Feng Shui Consultant. You are then removing any Energy left behind in the home and on the land-and have ended up with a wonderful bargain in the process.
Never be afraid to purchase a Home or Business that you truly love. A qualified Feng Shui Consultant can always make a space work FOR you, not AGAINST you.
Blessings to you,
Carole
