Certain places, certain effects

The location of your home is decisive in creating a harmonious life. The energy that affects your home may come from inconceivably distant places within our galaxy or elsewhere in the universe. Ordinarily this is not easy to ascertain and the special training of a Feng Shui expert is required. But it is possible to work with this principle in making your own assessment of possible locations for your home. For example, instead of simply wondering if you are moving into a "nice neighbourhood" or thinking solely about the convenience to transportation or local food shops, you can try to sense the broader feel fo the locality and the quality of its energy. Individuals have varying sensitivities to this, but it is by no means rare. You can use the basic information in this book as a guide. What are the contours of the land and the configuration of the roads - is the house in one of the positions you are warned against? Where is the nearest open body of water, such as a pond, public swimming pool, or reservoir? Is it toward the back of the house or far in front? What is there in the nearby environment that you think could disturb the tranquility of your home and particularly affect peaceful sleep?
You should also consider the human environment. A Feng Shui expert would never recommend that you occupy a home that is opposite or next door to places that regularly have a disturbed atmosphere or are associated with trouble, crime, or violent individuals. You probaby wouldn't want to live there in any case, but the Feng Shui advice is to avoid homes opposite or adjacent to bars, brothels, and police stations. You should also avoid living opposite or next to buildings with the shape associated with the Fire element.
Disturbing influences
A streetlamp outside your home sets up an energy field that disturbs the space in front of your dwelling. This is easily understandable at night when the glare of the lamp is steadily beaming down. But, to the Feng Shui expert, the lamp post and its constant electrical field are disturbing influences throughout the day and night. Living under power lines takes this problem to the extreme. It should be avoided at all costs as recent health studies on people suffering from leukeia and other cancers in such locations have shown.
