Some very logical and real aspects to Feng Shui and placement of home.

There are some very logical and real aspects to Feng Shui and placement of home. It should have solid support in the back, some support on the sides and some in the front plus openess to bring in wonderful energy.
The flow of your home is important. The energy should not come straight in the front door and straight out the back door -- it should meander its way through the home in a wonderful way.
Don't choose a home at the end of a straight street or where there are many poison arrrows hitting it. These are straight streets or lines that slam directly into your home. Also, a very busy street is too much energy going by and you will never feel relaxed. Don't choose a home on the outside of a curve which is a very logical thing not to do anyway. For example, a car out of control at this turn could slam into your home.
They say that living near a cemetary -- though quiet -- is not good because you will always feel the grief in the air. Living near to a hospital or fire station could just be plain noisy.
In terms of inside the home, when I was married, we bought a home where the owners were going through such a bad divorce that they couldn't even sit in the same room for the closing and we had to do our closing twice!!! Eventually, we got divorced too and I really do believe that the energies of the people can go from owner to owner. For example, we got divorced too!!! I have a feeling the next couple who bought the house from us may have gotten divorced as well. You could ask for divine intervention, use some bells, chimes and smudge some sage to clear out these dark energies.
do believe there are truths to Feng Shui and the energies in a space. I believe many are just plain logic and many are real energies. You can change some and you can't change others -- they are stuck there forever because some are even immersed into the land. Just use your intuition and trust your heart about what feels good to you!
