Many people ask me, “How fast does feng shui work?”
That’s because most of you want to know how soon you can expect to see results in your life after implementing feng shui in your home. Those with little knowledge and experience may have pessimistic or overly optimistic expectations about how much and how soon the changes they make in their home can begin to help them by having an impact on their lives.
How quickly and to what degree feng shui can start to have an impact on your life depends on your personal circumstances. There is a great multitude of possible situations related to love life and relationships, health and well-being, wealth matters and the professional goals of each person. The feng shui concepts that are best to implement for a specific problem have different levels of success and various timelines until we start to notice improvements in our lives. It also depends on whether the problem you are trying to eradicate from your life is persistent, which will require a long-term solution and therefore take longer to resolve, or whether the problem is only temporary and therefore can be resolved. before. . Examples of persistent problems include the following:
• Despite my best efforts, I have never been able to save money
• I feel like my love life has been non-existent for years.
Long-term problems like these require long-term solutions. Thinking that you will be able to adjust the energy balance in your home and begin to see immediate results is not realistic. If you make the right changes to your home, you can expect to see modest results in a few months, depending on the severity of the situation.
Examples of situations in your life that may be temporary and therefore will require different solutions include things like:
• In the last few months, I feel like my relationship with my other half has become stale and lacking in passion.
• I have recently had some difficulty growing my personal investments (a problem I did not have until recently)
Another point to remember is that feng shui relates to your luck on Earth, and your own personal effort to overcome your own challenges is another factor that will affect the amount of time it takes. In Chinese culture there is also ‘Man Luck’ (which is your own personal luck based on your efforts in life) and ‘Heaven Luck’ (which was instilled in you at birth and is something you have no control over). Although we can’t do much to control our heavenly luck, we can do things to adjust our human luck and our earthly luck. A few quick adjustments at home can produce results in a few days if the problem itself is temporary. This problem may be caused by the Chinese calendar year change (from February 4 of each year), which means that the power in your home could have been suddenly disrupted. In these cases, making the right adjustments to your environment can have almost immediate effects, but it requires you to have enough knowledge to be able to make the correct changes to your home.
