KOCHI: Feng Shui considers the northwest direction the patriarch corner and the most important sector for the family, as it affects the luck of the family in many ways. The direction relates to the breadwinner and is considered quite essential for the advancement of career, enhancement of income and support of mentors.
If the northwest corner of a house is missing, it will be a serious feng shui affliction and one should focus on correcting it to ensure continued prosperity for the family. Mirrors can be used to visually ‘extend’ the missing northwest if the wall is part of the dining or living area. Ensure that the mirror covers the entire wall and is neither too small nor too low. Avoid mirrored tiles which create breaks in the image. One can also use bright lights at the missing corner.
It will be a lot easier if there is a garden, as the light can then be placed fairly high; as high as the house itself. This will have excellent effects as it creates good yang energy for that corner.
When it comes to looking after your success luck, you can enhance feng shui by ensuring that your study or office is located at the northwest sector. This corner governs the quality of your mentor and patron luck. As long as the northwest room enjoys good feng shui balance and harmony, the people who use that room will find themselves assisted by helpful patrons. You can suspend an all metal wind chime of six rods at the northwest of the living or dining area to enhance the sector. Metal bells at the northwest are also considered good luck enhancers as bells are the symbols of good reputation. The presence of one such bell in a home brings in good fortune for the family.
The northwest gets afflicted badly when you have kitchen or a store room which in turn affects the luck of the family. The northwest relates to heaven luck in feng shui and a fire here means fire at the ‘doorway to heaven’. You could overcome this defect by suspending an all metal wind chime of five rods and also place an urn of still water at the northwest corner of the kitchen to quench the “flames” at the wrong sector.
You could also hang a picture of a large mountain here to symbolise the earth in this area. Earth in this sector strengthens thxe metal element which relates to the northwest.
If the northwest sector is wellmaintained and strengthened as per feng shui, it will ensure that you not only have all around mentor support but an excellent career path with many opportunities and countless mentors.
