Fengshui Tips: Buying a Good Fengshui House

风水教学：买个好风水的屋子

What do you look for when you are considering to purchase a new house? It comes to the price, location, size, condition, lot placement, floor plan and so on. These are the types of considerations that are taken into account when you want to assess the fengshui of a house. Here are some guidance to select a house with good fengshui.

当你购买新屋时，你会以什么为考虑前提？我们都会以价钱、地点、方尺、位置、内部结构与设计等等作为考量。来看看以下有什么指导能让你找到好风水的屋子。

Lot Placement

地段

Be sure your house receives good energy from its surroundings, a clean street, good neighbours, no “sha chi” from nearby structures, no sloping land behind the house, and etc.

确保你房子周围是干净的街道、好邻居，附近没有煞气，房子后方的不应有斜坡等等。

Both Way of House

屋子周围

It is not good if the road ends in a straight line to the house. Also, houses with a highway behind and in front of the house will suffer, and corrections can’t be made for these. Long driveways or a dead end in front of the house, would be another problem, but can be corrected with plants or mirrors.

如果路的尽头是与房子成为平行线，这是非常不好的。房子的前方和后方有道路，风水上来说是非常不吉祥的。房前有长直的道路或是道路的终点，是另一个问题，但可利用植物或镜子来修正。

Get Support

靠山

You also want good backing (classical mountain in fengshui), good energy and view in front of the house. Land that falls away at the back of the house creates loss and difficulties getting recognition and promotion.

你需要有很好的靠山，需要良好的能量及风景于房屋前方。屋后的路面不平会造成损失和难得到认可和升职机会。

Strong Front Door
前堂

The front door is very important in fengshui as this is how the house receives its Chi, or energy nourishment. Sometimes you can change a bad fengshui pathway with easy landscaping, and sometimes you just can't be mindful about it.
前门是非常重要的，因为这是吸收气及能量的地方。你可以美化及利用装饰来改变坏风水，但有时候这招却行不通，需要慎重考虑。

Open Up

广阔

If the house faces open land or has a wide, open area at the front, it has the “bright hall effect”. This is extremely auspicious. Make sure the house is not overwhelmed by landscaping. If there is a tree too close to the house, especially if it is in line with the front door, this is not good and will prevent opportunities for the houseowner.

如果房子面对着广阔的土地或在开放的区域里，这是非常吉祥的风水。但要确保房子不能过于装饰而破坏风水。如果屋前有棵树，表示遮挡了屋主的机会，这是不好的征兆。

Southwest and Northwest

西南和西北地区

These are the two most important directions in a house. The Northwest should never have an open flame, such as a gas stove. This is a fengshui taboo. To have a house such as this is to invite severe difficulties for the man of the house. Look at Southwest, this is the position for the woman or mother of the house. If there is a storeroom or bathroom located here, there could be marital difficulties and unhappiness.

西南和西北是家里最重要的方向。西北绝不能有明火如：煤气炉等；这是风水的禁忌。如果有这样的风水，很难邀请亲朋亲友到家。在西南，这是女人或母亲的位置，如果有个储藏室或浴室坐落在这里，有可能导致婚姻苦难和不愉快。
