Direction of house affects flow of energy

If Sometimes you must have noticed that the family members don't get along well in your house. There is a sense of underlying tension among the residents. Situation turns worse every passing day. Is it the bad Feng Shui in the house that is causing all these? What is the problem with the Feng Shui in your house then? There can be a lot of such challenges that can provoke negative energy in your home. 

According to Feng Shui, the placement of your house can affect your success, financial stability, love and luck. If the direction of the house is not okay, then negative energy will affect you. Therefore, the house must be south facing. It may also happen that you are already residing in a house that is not Feng Shui conducive. The direction of the house cannot be changed, but you can definitely modify the exterior and interior of your house. 

Get rid of all the clutter in the house. Throw all broken stuff such as watches, radios, dead plants and junk mail. Clutter will encourage bad energy in the house. There must be adequate light in the room. Bright light will guide good energy into your home. You should not keep curtains that will block the light through the windows. You can place healthy plants in your room or in the yard. Make it a point to hang crystals surrounding the house. Green crystals will encourage prosperity and pink ones will encourage love. Purple crystals will help enhance wisdom. 
Put a fence around the house. The fence will protect the house from bad fortune. 

The energy in your bedroom should be good since you relax there after the day’s hard work. Feng Shui eliminates all negative energies in your bedroom. Keep your bedroom clean. After you return home, do not keep used clothes on 
the bed. 

Every morning after you get up, arrange your bed properly. Before going to bed, arrange your clothes. These habits of keeping your bedroom clean will remove the negative energy that can affect your life. There must not be any mirror in the bedroom. This is because mirrors create energies that will not let you sleep peacefully and will cause bad relationships. 

The bedroom must be dark at night and the surrounding should be quiet. Noise disrupts sleep and you will not feel fresh when you get up in the morning. You should also allow sunlight to enter the bedroom in the morning.

According to Feng Shui, there must be a balance between light and darkness that will bring positive energy. Do not keep any bookshelf, dresser or window nook in the bedroom. Position the bed away from the door or window. If you have no other way but to place the bed near the door, then do not keep the door open when you sleep. 

The hallways should not be dark. Do not keep any TV in the bedroom. Avoid keeping any terrifying artwork in your room for this will create a negative feeling in the mind. Don’t keep any dead plants in the room or in the yard.

Try your best to fix all the challenges that can cause tension in the house. If you can work on the Feng Shui of your home perfectly, then it will help create a positive atmosphere in the house.
