Going with feng shui flow makes practical sense | Bangkok Post: news

December and January usually indicate a low season for property sales as Thais celebrate the traditional New Year and the Chinese New Year. Thais and Chinese have close ties culturally, and these days many Thais seem to believe in Chinese astrology and feng shui.

Feng shui translates literally to "wind and water" and is based on a belief in patterns of the opposing but complementary forces of yin and yang and the flow of chi (energy). It is the Chinese practice of positioning objects, especially buildings and furniture, based on these patterns and energy. In the tradition of feng shui, the way a home is decorated and designed affects the fortunes of its residents.

I am not a feng shui expert, but in the property industry it is an area that cannot be neglected as more and more buyers put faith in it. As property agents, we know how feng shui can be either a deal closer or a deal breaker.
