The original White House in Washington, D.C. was built in 1792. It burned down and was re-built in 1815. Houses are built within 20 year construction cycles that repeat every 180 years. In this regard, the “energy” of the re-built White House is similar to structures that were built 180 years later (1995).
These south-facing “Period 7” houses have both positive and negative features that not only affect the First Family living there, but also make a general statement about our country’s “feng shui,” (i.e.health, prosperity, or reputation as a nation.) In the same way that Chinese Feng Shui Masters make predictions about the Chinese Stock Market, based on the building where the stocks are traded, we can make correlations about the White House’s feng shui symbolizing how American are doing.
The energy at the center of the White House is a 3-2 Flying Star pattern. ***The Flying Star School of Feng Shui takes into account the age of the building and the precise compass alignment. These numbers are code for UNSEEN influences, in the same way that H2O stands for “water.” When this 3-2 energy pattern is in the very center of a house, it means there is greater potential for gossip, arguments, and legal conflicts. Legal problems is not necessarily bad for a government building (that’s the nature of what a government building deals with), but the “3” energy also implies scandal.
Mud-slinging between political parties is an American tradition and the levels of scandal and deception continue to rise. A feng shui consultant did an evaluation of the White House in the mid-1990’s, which was published in an article in Newsweek magazine, where she predicted a sexual scandal long before the Clinton/Lewinsky story broke.
Can Feng Shui predict who will win the election? With enough information, it is possible to make a guesstimate. In the 2000 Election, some astrologers were not able to announce who would win because they were only looking at the positioning of the stars on that very Election Day. It was very indecisive energy that day for both candidates. As we all know, weeks later when we found out the results. If an astrologer had looked into each man’s personal chart, not just on Election Day, but months down the road, then it would have been more obvious who would take over as President.
With analysis of the White House alone, not considering the specific people living inside, the predictions would have to be more general. One thing is for sure, this south-facing building, with a south door, has the annual “9 fire” energy at the entrance this year. This 9 energy is highly volatile.In fact, it often predicts fire accidents and explosions. (Every building has annual cycles that change from year to year, like having a guest stay with you for that whole time.) In a general sense, the occupants in this house will have a very intense year. This can also extend to the American people. By the way, the very center of every structure this year has some very aggravated energy which can contribute to arguments. Lots of otherwise happy people may find themselves more agitated and argumentative with family members or co-workers this year.
For those of you who are new to feng shui, you may have found this article surprising in its commonality to astrology. Authentic Feng Shui factors in both timing and direction of a building, just like astrology requires a birth place and time to create a chart and make predictions.
