Feng Shui your Web Site
This relates to the fact that more free space (on a web page) would allow positive energy or ch’i to flow around which then in turn would create a positive environment. Negative ch’i is obtained when the energy stagnates in one area.
To apply this to a page, perhaps more curves could be introduced rather than long straight lines, open spaces with perhaps more use of paragraphs in content and padding around tables.
Navigational links to other pages should be clear, allowing positive energy to flow through the whole site.
Colours
Clean crisp colours which are bold will attract a user’s attention and should be used around the web page as this helps ch’i to flow. Dark colours or white text on a black background is a definite no no. It’s what we’ve been taught at a young age, inbuilt within our subconscious and for good reason! Dark colours attract negative energy which could result in users staying on the site for a few moments or hastily rushing through the pages.
Calm soothing colours such as blue or white are recommended for large areas of space, whilst colours such as red and orange are regarded as being positive.
Yin and Yang
The balance of Yin and Yang is an important part of Feng Shui studies and can be defined as two opposites such as Male and Female, Young and Old, Inside and Outside etc.,.
So using an example of a web site which is split into two columns and there’s content text in one column and graphics in another, perhaps the ideal balance would be to swap some graphics into the text section and likewise some content into the graphics section. It’s all about balance.
Other Tips
Implement Google Analytics to check where your visitors are going, where they are clicking and which pages they are leaving from. If applying Feng Shui to your site has helped, I'd love to find out.

Tips When Selecting Your Shui Consultant
The problem may occur though when having to actually choose a consultant of this chinese philosophy . So many options are available in today's culture that finding just the right fit may be a tougher choice than originally thought.
The first thing to do when choosing a good feng shui consultant is to research. This is not something to take lightly. Just as a person would not want a second rate plumber, they would not want to invest in a second rate one.
In order to become familiar with the field of feng shui, one should start their research either in the library or the internet. After that an individual should clarify their expectations of what is needed from such a consultant.
Then, a look at the various schools can be helpful in finding a good feng shui guide. Feng shui has several schools with talented practitioners in each one of them, and it is helpful for an individual to know or ask about the basic differences between schools and choose the one that is preferred over the others.
If a person has gone thru all of these steps in order to find such a consultant and still has no luck, perhaps word of mouth may be the solution. Asking friends and family for references can be a great way to find the perfect one. If one has had a feng shui consultation, find out all the details such as how they work, fees, etc.
Most likely a good consultant of this chinese philosophy will have a website, pamphlet, or other material that can answer all the questions that a person may have.
If this is still not enough information, asking for references from the consultant is never a bad thing and the consultant should not be offended by the question.
When that perfect consultant of this chinese philosophy is found, life can be that much easier.
By doing through research, checking references, and making sure that clear expectations are set, a person can be assured that their lives in all aspects will be on the road to achieving as much harmony and balance that feng shui can offer.
The feng shui journey can be paved with gold if one has the right guide to accompany them.

Can Feng Shui Make Men Romantic?
| When I told my husband I was going to practice yoga, he mistakenly thought the improved flexibility of my body would make my opinions more flexible. When I told him I was going to have acupuncture, he didn't get the point - literally. John didn't believe inserting a needle between the two bones in my forearm would prevent nausea, but it does. I feel better on boats, on planes and when I listen to campaign promises. Because the Chinese were right about acupuncture, I decided they must be right about feng shui; and I feng shui'd our house. A bell by the front door leads luck in; a bell by the back door leads luck out. We didn't have a bell, so I moved the wind chimes to the front door. I thought that should work because wind chimes enhance luck. Dried flowers are good for decoration; but because they're dead flowers, they're bad for feng shui. Out they went. Out went the live plants in the bedroom because they create too much energy for sound sleep. Because live plants are good in rooms of sick people, I moved them into my husband's office. He wasn't sick, but he wasn't feeling good about feng shui. Not wanting the good energy in the house to be bad for my marriage, I put a lot of feng shui in our bedroom. Without the help of my doubting Thomas, I moved our bed. Sleeping with your feet facing the door is the death position. In my wedding vows I'd promised until death do us part, but I didn't want to be parted by our bed or have it turn into twin beds. Because any suggestion of water in the bedroom promotes misunderstanding, the painting of the ocean went into the living room. A mirror in the bedroom causes a third person to enter an otherwise good relationship. Even though my mother-in-law lives across the country, the mirror went into the entrance hall. Then because pairs promote romance, I put a picture of John and me on both sides of the bed. I was hoping a pair of the pair of us would double the romance. Actually, not using feng shui in our new house was what improved the romance. In our new house I left the feng shui to Mother Nature. Water provides good energy and I have the Pacific Ocean for a backyard. |
