IF you have a balcony that has sharp shapes, corners or edges, there are a few things you could do to remedy it and generate positive energy for your home.
One of the most common is placing tall and healthy plants.
It is recommended that you opt for a plant or a flower that has vibrant colours and can be easily taken care of. Avoid spiky or pointed ones like a cactus as it might prevent positive qi from entering the house.
According to Feng Shui masters, green plants in the balcony will not only energise and greet you every morning, but also welcome you back in the evening from all your outdoor activities.
It is wise that you keep the balcony free from unnecessary items like old shoe racks or cupboards, empty pots or vases, dead plants, bottles and newspapers.
According to Chinesehoroscop-e.com, putting a window box on the window sill will fill the house with the wood energy of growing plants.
By using the Bagua, we can choose the colours of the plants, flowers and window boxes which correspond to the direction facing our balcony.
The direction facing the balcony is also important.
A balcony with the view of a river, mountain or other greenery is said to be very auspicious compared to one facing a busy road and the walls of another building.
It is best to avoid choosing a house with a balcony that has certain objects, structures and buildings adjacent to it as it can cut off the positive energy meant to flow into your home.
Meanwhile, having a door that faces a balcony will create problems for the occupants, especially if they have children.
The children may be drawn to elope from the house and may under-perform at school.
Parents may also not have their heart at home, causing a strife in their relationship and creating issues at work.
To prevent all these, try installing a partition or any forms of wall structures between the door and the balcony to make the space less parallel.
