How To Protect Yourself From Bad Neighbours According To Feng Shui

According to Feng Shui, people around us, especially neighbours, affect our life energy (Chi) very deeply. If your neighbors are negative, quarrelsome, jealous, or have stressful behaviour, their energy can bring unrest, imbalance, and misfortune to your home and life as well. The good thing is that Feng Shui has many energy-balancing techniques and remedies to deal with such matters. By adopting the remedies given below, you can not only protect your energy but also make the environment of your home positive and calm. (Image: AI-Generated)

Strengthen Boundaries: It is important to create a strong “Chi barrier” to stop external energy, asper Feng Shui principle.

Remedies: Keep the walls or boundaries of your house clean and in good condition. If you reside in an apartment, place an auspicious nameplate made of wood or metal on the front door. Use thick curtains on the windows of the house, especially if the neighbour’s eyes fall directly on your house. (Image: AI-Generated)

Use Plants as Energy Shields: According to Feng Shui, negative energy is blocked and absorbed by plants. (Image: AI-Generated)

Remedies: Plant plants like tall bamboo, basil, areca palm, or ficus outside your house. In the direction of negative energy (the side where the neighbor lives), keep more dense plants. You can make a wall of pots in the balcony, which will act as an energy barrier. (Image: AI-Generated)

Protection from Evil Eye and Jealousy: In Feng Shui, it is believed that some people can affect your happiness, peace, and prosperity with their jealousy. (Image: AI-Generated)

Remedies: Hang a Nazarbattu (black dot) or a blue evil eye on the main door. Outside the entrance, put a Bali mirror, sometimes referred to as a Chinese Feng Shui mirror. Place the Bagua Mirror only when negative energy is coming from the front; do not place it without any reason. You can tie a red ribbon or thread on the door or window. (Image: AI-Generated)

Use of Sound & Vibration: Feng Shui uses vibration and sound to cleanse energy. (Image: AI-Generated)

Remedies: Place wind chimes made of metal or bamboo inside the front door. These remove negative energy and invite positive energy. Ring a campaigning bell, bell, or conch in the house once a week. (Image: AI-Generated)

Balance the energy inside the house by placing a crystal ball, citrine, or black tourmaline in the east or north direction of the house; these create protective energy. Place a laughing Buddha, tortoise, or Pixiu (Feng Shui protection symbol) in the house. Regularly burn incense, agarbatti, or camphor in the house. This will let negative energy go out.

Doorway defense: The main door is the first door for all kinds of energy to enter your house. Keep a red object near the main door, like a red door mat, ribbon, or red flower. Keep Chinese coins, Laughing Buddha, or Guardian Fu Dogs on both sides of the door. (Image: AI-Generated)

Use mirrors carefully: Mirrors reflect energy, but misuse can have a negative impact. If your neighbor’s window or door is directly facing your house, you can place a small mirror facing outwards in such a way that it sends negative energy back. Place mirrors on the inner walls in such a way that they reflect a good view or light, not a bad environment. (Image: AI-Generated)

Stop worrying about neighbours and focus on elevating your own energy. Mop the house with salt water every morning; this clears the negative energy from the house. Meditation and chanting mantras (like “Om Shanti Shanti Shanti”) maintain peace and mental protection in the house. (Image: AI-Generated)
