In the realm of Feng Shui, many dwellings in China are graced with the presence of a neighboring mountain, particularly in the picturesque regions of Guangxi and Yunnan. Within the domain of household Feng Shui, what mysteries does the mountain hold? For those residing beside these natural giants, one must be attuned to the question: is the Feng Shui of the opposing mountain auspicious or inauspicious? The answer lies primarily in the mountain’s form. Various shapes of mountains signify distinct destinies. Among these forms, rounded mountains are deemed favorable, with those crowned by perfect circles being most auspicious, while those with pointed peaks are regarded as the least favorable.
Mountains adorned with jagged, pointed rocks are deemed the epitome of inauspiciousness. Individuals facing such mountains are susceptible to ocular ailments or chronic bone pains. However, considering the geological aspects, in the Nine-Star Astrology, mountains associated with the Fire element are favorable. If a mountain has some degree of sharpness but lacks excessive ruggedness, it still holds the promise of good Feng Shui. However, if behind one peak there arises another, resembling a person’s head extending outwards, this configuration, known in Feng Shui as “peeking head mountain,” suggests intrusion, theft, or the schemes of malicious individuals. Such a mountain portends unfavorable Feng Shui.
The quality of a mountain, besides its shape, is also determined by the presence of flourishing vegetation. A verdant, unblemished mountain represents excellent Feng Shui. Damage here refers to portions of the mountain or rocks falling away, creating depressions akin to landslides. When malign stars enter these damaged areas during specific periods, households facing such mountains, be it their entrances or balconies, are susceptible to skin diseases and gastrointestinal ailments.
Therefore, mountains facing residences should not be sharp and jagged or exhibit signs of erosion or damage. If one observes stone extraction activities on the opposite mountain, it signifies extremely unfavorable Feng Shui. Any earth-moving activities near the home, such as construction, excavation, or quarrying, are considered ominous. These activities, collectively referred to as earth-moving, can disrupt the harmony of the dwelling. If one notices any excavation near the residence or an unstable slope, or if parts of the mountain have lost their greenery, transforming into barren peaks, vigilance is required, for these are all signs of unfavorable Feng Shui.
When selecting a building, if the view from the window reveals a mountain with rugged, eroded features or ongoing excavation, devoid of lush greenery, it is advisable, according to Master Guangying, not to make the purchase. Conversely, if the mountain visible from the window is lush with green trees and foliage, devoid of erosion, it signifies the residents within will enjoy robust health and prosperity in both progeny and wealth. In Feng Shui, mountains symbolize the family line, controlling the birth of children and their overall well-being. They also represent the elderly flourishing in their twilight years. For in health, one finds both wealth and well-being.
