Feng Shui Water Features: 7 Mistakes to Avoid When Adding Feng Shui Water Features To Your Home Or Garden.

Water features are excellent feng shui elements because of their auspicious feng shui properties. They are believed to attract wealth and prosperity in your life. However, it is of utmost importance to use these powerful feng shui elements in the “right” way. Using them in the wrong way may attract some unwanted situations in your life. Here are top 7 brutal mistakes everyone should avoid when it comes to water features:

1. Do not place the water feature on the right side of the door. When water features are placed on the right side, they are considered to result in infidelity. Right side here refers to the side on your right hand when looking from inside of the door. Ignoring this rule is that the man of the house will cheat on his wife and kids, and look elsewhere to start a second family.

2. Avoid large water features, i.e. swimming pools, ponds etc. The size of water features should not overpower the property. Energizing effect of water would be ineffective and cause ill effects when the water features are not in proportion to the size of the property.

3. It is always better to have a water feature in front of your house than to the back. Feng shui rules encourage the presence of water element in front of the entrance of your house. According to Taoist feng shui, doing multiples your good fortune.

4. Stagnant pool water is a sign of chi blockage. It is important that the pool water always be moving, you may do so by adding a small water fountain or a waterfall.

5. Water in the water feature should never appear to be flowing away from the front door. It should always be flowing in the direction of the house door. This is one of the most important points to remember when activating your wealth through the use of water features.

6. Carp fish pond brings abundance only when the carp fish living in that pond are healthy and happy. In feng shui lore, “fish” stands for abundance. It is one of the most loved fish by Chinese. It is vitally important to keep your water clean and your fish healthy. If you decide to keep carp fish in your pond for feng shui reasons, make sure you learn how to take care of them. When your fish are sick, unhealthy, or dead, they emit very negative chi and it can result in negative feng shui effects.

7. Avoid placing fierce looking dragons near your water features. Instead, place a happy looking dragon figurine in proximity of your water features. Presence of dragon element near your water feature gives your water feature more power and energy.
