How to Select a Feng Shui Master?

Feng Shui is a quite a sophisticated and abstract subject to the average man in the street. To the layperson, hiring a Geomancer is quite a challenging task because he would not know how to assess the competency of the Geomancer. Yet, if he did not get a highly competent Feng Shui practitioner, he would, at the minimum, be wasting the fees he is going to pay for the Fengshui audit. However, if he gets really unlucky, he could hire a practitioner that accelerates the death of his son or the rape of his daughter.

Feng Shui being such a highly abstract and yet unregulated industry, has naturally seen to the proliferation of quacks who are in this industry to make easy money. It is unfortunate that these quacks are giving the Geomancy profession a bad name. For the benefit of our readers who are believers in Feng Shui, I have come up with some simple questions and considerations for clients to ask and consider the professionalism of their prospective consultant.

For a start, customers may ask if the prospective Feng Shui consultant knows Ba Zi (4 Pillars) and Zi Wei Dou Shu (ZWDS). It is highly preferred that he knows both these art of Chinese Astrology. The next question is ask is for him whether he thinks consideration of Chinese Astrology affects the Feng Shui recommendations he is going to make. The acceptable answer is only yes.

Following this, the customer may ask him to describe how he would use Ba Zi and Zi Wei Dou Shu to carry out the Feng Shui recommendations. Admittedly the answer to this question may be beyond the comprehension of most customers but yet it is pertinent to assess his confidence and the reasonableness of his answer. Stay tune for my next article for more tips on selecting a Geomancer.
