The Feng Shui of a New York City - NYC - Apartment

 

The Feng Shui of a New York City Apartment  

Applying Feng Shui to Apartments in New York City at times can be challenging.  This apartment from a Feng Shui Client was located in Midtown Manhattan NY and the new owner was just moving in.

New York City has apartments that come in all sizes and shapes.  We often find what we think of as "missing pieces" of the Bagua (which we can correct) or apartments that may seem a bit off balance.  

This apartment was lovely but it had a long sweep of energy from the front to the back by the long hallway.  In Feng Shui, you should feel "graced" into your space and not feel the energy moving so rapidly to the other end.

Some suggestions for this Feng Shui Client would be the use of Crystals which help to slow down and diffuse Energy.  Certainly Artwork on the walls which would deflect the eye from the sweep would be beneficial as well as color choices if they should decide to paint.

Lighting in this space can also be directional.  Bringing in these objects and filling this NYC apartment with things the clients love will help to deflect any issues-and because they were just moving in, starting off fresh with a Space Clearing to rid it of any Predecessor Energy is a wonderful Feng Shui way to ensure many happy, healthy and prosperous years here.

That is a very long hallway -- will be interesting what the occupant ends up doing.

I think Feng Shui is important. I know a little about Space Clearing and do that quite often, but I would like to know more about Feng Shui.

It sure is a long, skinny hallway. Would you add any mirrors in this space to bring in more light, Carole?

Space clearing is an underrated help in such cases.  Sometimes the space just doesn't feel right no matter what you do and clearing can make all the difference in the world.

thanks Carole, for good advice as usual.

Hi Carole-I will be doing a lot of Feng-Shui in 2010. I think you should have a book. It would be a best seller I bet. Happy New Year. <SMILE>

Good Morning Carole,

Very good timing on this post as the house we are moving into has a relatively long hallway from the front area to the back as well. Pictures are a great idea and I hadn't thought of that until you mentioned it in this post.....will definitely use your advice!

Hi Carole! That hallway reminds me of a tunnel vision effect. Pictures and paint will help for sure. Happy New Year Carole!

Happy New Year to you Carole!
