How is it like during Fengshui Consultation ?
Engaging Fengshui Consultation Service?
To those may wonder what should I expect when I engage a Fengshui Master or Consultant for a Fengshui audit?
Typically, a Fengshui master usually will explain to you the following about your house Fengshui:
- What are the do and don’ts for your house – for example, the placement for your bed arrangement, study desk, stove, sofa etc.
- Good and Bad Sectors for your house
- External Factors that cause negative energy to your house
- Family members staying the house
Secondly, especially for the first-timer who might feel anxious or worried will they require to buy like crystal to help to enhance their Fengshui after the consultation.
My answer will be it depends on the Fengshui master or consultant on their beliefs & practice. Usually, for that new-age Fengshui, they will recommend you to get some crystal placement for your house.
Personally, I am following classic Fengshui hence will not recommend any crystal kinds of stuff that will help to improve the house Feng Shui.
DIY Fengshui vs Engage Fengshui Audit Service?
Some might ask there are lots of resources and tips out there on the internet and forum, hence I should be able to do my house Fengshui.
I would suggest engaging a professional Fengshui Consultant is more feasible. By using online resources are not sufficient and there is possible to cause backfire. Furthermore, you will not able to know whether the information from the internet is true?
Onsite Fengshui vs Remote Fengshui
Another common question that I usually receive will be can the Fengshui Consultant do a Fengshui audit without being onsite?
My answer to this question will be some of the things that can be done without being onsite. For example, identify good and bad sectors, stove placement, wealth sector, flying stars and 8 mansions reading where it can be done based on the floor plan.
Most importantly, there are more things that can be done onsite. For example, onsite able to identify the negative energy from the external environment more accurately instead of based on photos or maps.
Another important thing will be we can confirm whether the energy (qi) is stable when we are onsite. In short, there are a number of limitations when the Fengshui audit conducts remotely.
My recommendation will be all Fengshui Consultation should be done onsite.
What do you need to provide for Fengshui Consultation?
Below are all the information usually needed before Fengshui Consultation.
Firstly, it will be your home address. It will be useful for the master or the consultant to do some preparation first like understanding the surrounding before onsite.
Secondly, we will definitely need a floor plan for your apartment. Do make a copy of your original floor plan when you purchase the apartment. Avoid using a hand-drawn floor plan as it will not be accurate.
Lastly, family member date of birth staying in the house.

Other events like date selection of moving in will be also referencing to Bazi as well.
Final Thoughts
Similarly, like other professional consultation services, the advice and recommendation you receive may differ from different Fengshui Masters.
It could be largely due to each individual experiences and perspectives, the way they think, and how they look at things. But the concept of Fengshui should not have different.
