Feng Shui Property Audit — FAQ
Common questions about DaoShu Energy's feng shui property audit — what it covers, how it works, and what it does and does not claim.
What is a feng shui property audit?
- A feng shui property audit is a structured cultural-reference analysis of the relationship between a home and the people who live in it. DaoShu looks through three lenses — feng shui (the property's environment, orientation, and formations), personal energy (the occupants themselves), and spatial-temporal energy (time and space) — to analyse and balance that relationship, then presents the findings as a report. It is a cultural study, not medical, financial, or property advice.
How does DaoShu Energy analyse a property?
- You provide an address and a floor plan. Combining its three lenses — feng shui, personal energy, and spatial-temporal energy — DaoShu maps the surrounding environment, determines the building's orientation, reviews the interior layout, and reads the relationship between the home and its occupants. The result is a structured report covering exterior, orientation, and interior findings.
Is the analysis automated or done by a person?
- The standard report is generated by the analysis system. DaoShu Energy also offers an optional 1-on-1 cultural consultation in which a human specialist reviews a property with you. The two are separate products.
What are sha formations (形煞)?
- Sha formations are environmental or layout configurations that traditional feng shui pays attention to — for example a road pointing straight at a home, or a staircase through the centre of a house. DaoShu Energy maintains a glossary of the exterior and interior formations it looks for.
Does feng shui affect property value?
- DaoShu Energy does not make claims about property prices or investment outcomes. A feng shui audit is a cultural-reference perspective on a home's environment and layout; any purchase or financial decision remains entirely your own.
Should I check feng shui before buying a home?
- Many buyers in Australia, New Zealand and beyond like to understand a property's feng shui as one cultural perspective among the many factors they weigh. DaoShu Energy provides that perspective in a clear, structured report so you can consider it alongside your other priorities.
What are the five elements in feng shui?
- The feng shui five elements are wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Traditional feng shui treats them as five qualities of energy that generate and counter one another, and uses them as a vocabulary to describe balance in a home. DaoShu Energy references the five elements when it describes a formation and the traditional direction used to balance it.
What should I check with feng shui when buying a house?
- When buying a house, traditional feng shui first looks at the environment around it (how roads, water, and neighbouring structures approach), then its orientation (sitting and facing direction), then the interior layout. The environment and orientation matter most at purchase because, unlike interiors, they cannot be changed later. DaoShu Energy presents all three as one structured cultural-reference perspective alongside your other priorities.
How much does a feng shui audit cost?
- DaoShu Energy offers a free tier and paid options; current prices and what each includes are shown on the pricing page. A separate optional 1-on-1 cultural consultation with a specialist is priced individually. Please check the pricing page for the latest details.
How is a property's facing direction determined?
- A property's facing direction is usually taken from its main entrance or principal open outlook, with the sitting direction opposite. DaoShu Energy establishes this orientation axis from the address, maps, and floor plan together rather than a single source, because a small error in the facing direction shifts the whole reading.
Which countries and regions do you cover?
- DaoShu Energy serves properties across Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada, and China, with an English and a Chinese interface.
Is my address and floor plan kept private?
- DaoShu Energy handles your data in line with its published privacy policy, including Australian Privacy Principles compliance and disclosure of any overseas processing. See the privacy policy for full details on collection, use, and your access and correction rights.
