Auspicious feng shui directions and colours for the Year of the Dog


It seems there are auspicious and inauspicious – “good” and “bad” – directions associated with the ancient Chinese philosophy of feng shui that governs our spatial environment. The idea is to orientate towards the good or auspicious directions to tap good qi (energy) to enhance luck and avoid bad directions that have bad energies.

Apparently, bad directions should not be disturbed or aggravated or else the person or household will suffer negative effects and perhaps court bad luck or misfortune. Malaysian feng shui master Yap Boh Chu shares tips on the good and bad directions.
