Q & A: Infinity Pools – And Beyond!

Hello Karen,
I have a question that is boggling my mind, and I would really appreciate your thoughts. I have a client who’s home is built on a hill. They are at the bottom of a T-junction. The street Ch’i flows right through the clear plate glass front door and out the back plate glass window, down a ten-foot drop and into the ginormous infinity edge swimming pool that just seems to drop off the edge of the property and go down the hill. From a feng shui stand point I would be trying to create a barrier and horizontal/vertical lines to redirect and balance the flow of chi…

I could imagine financial disasters resulting from this situation, BUT since building this home a year ago they have had the best year ever for their business and personally. I also know of several others who have these infinity pools and a drop down in the landscape of the back of the home, yet financially they are raking it in, and it seems the money is just flowing into their bank accounts. What would be your thoughts on this scenario?

Is there a possible explanation that I am missing? I am really quite puzzled. Thanks for you input.
Love Lesley

Lesley,
My instinctive first guess is: “Infinity!” They probably think of this pool label every time they look at it, and the visual affirmation of infinite possibility in a wealthy enhancement (as expensive pools are seen to be) is the major working affirmation. In other words, the power of one’s thoughts can outweigh any other influence.
My second thought is…for these particular people, they are maybe feasting on fast moving Ch’i right now, bustling about in their lives and using up lots of personal Ch’i to stay afloat. Eventually they WILL need to restore themselves, and when that time comes, they will benefit from your Feng Shui advice on creating areas where the Ch’i POOLS rather than RUSHES.
Money may be rushing IN but also rushing OUT at the same speed. They may not be telling you this, as it may not be a problem for them as yet. Many clients do not realize that they could work less frantically to keep their heads “above water” if they balanced this rapid flow of money in and out with some simple Feng Shui remedies.

Thank you, Karen, that totally fits, as they do see their pool as a “Dallas Pool”– in other words, one that you would find in a really expensive home and more of a status symbol than just a pool. That is a great perspective.
