Feng Shui: Where to Avoid an Argument

Do You ‘Always’ Have an Argument in a Certain Area?

Unseen Feng Shui energies in your house are capable of triggering an argument or accidental events right in the very areas where you dwell, as well as outside that location. One clear example would be an area of your house which might trigger an accident, and then you could leave your house and have an accident away from the premises.

More times than not, I get feedback from clients that certain areas of the house are flash points for arguments. And this usually correlates with the more unfavorable flying star energies associated with cases, such as the five stars or seven stars. These numbers are symbolic coding for energies created in a house based on when it was built. These energies may be transient also, such as annual forces which change their location from year to year.

In the New Age version of Feng Shui, no such “argument” zone exists. Many people are familiar with the template used in the New Age Feng Shui system, where there is a “wealth corner” and a “relationship” corner. There are eight symbols in that system, and I write about it very infrequently because I do not give much credence to a system that doesn’t factor in actual compass directions or timing, which is critical for a more accurate and personalized analysis. And yet, this system has such other benign areas of a house, depicted as a “Family” area and a “Helpful People” area.

When we delve deeper into traditional Feng Shui, there are two branches which can determine where in the house there may be inherent tensions and work against a couple or family trying to discuss something important and have it go successfully. The Ba Zhai, or Eight Mansion School, will delineate areas that can cause an argument based on the sitting orientation of a house. And much of this information is tied to an extrapolation of Five Element Theory. For example, if we have a west-sitting house, that is associated with the metal element. Rooms within a house, which are in the inherent wood directions like east and southeast, would be potential areas for problems in communicating, among other challenges. Why? This is because metal symbolically “chops” wood. So there is inherent pressure in that part of the house.
