In
Xuan Kong Flying Star feng shui, “luan tao” (outside/inside environment) is
very important. For example, if the outside environment is not auspicious, it
will affect the “li chi” or feng shui inside the house. Most of the time, these
unfavourable conditions are considered as “sha”.
One
of the most common “sha” is when a tall building is surrounded by low
buildings. This is referred as “gu feng du song” or “lonely Tall Mountain” sha. The occupants in this building will have
little support or conflicts with others, lonely and poor marriage luck.
Now
let us look at an example in Toronto, Canada. In an article on the Toronto Star
dated August 7, 2012 tilted “Condo project leaves bad taste with restaurants”,
it is reporting that a strip of low rise Victorian buildings in the heart of
the Entertainment District, dubbed “restaurant row,” is facing off against a
47-storey condominium project. The owners of the restaurants oppose the
development, and not only on esthetic grounds, they also concerned about
blocking of sunlight, wind tunnelling and affordable housing. Well, if we look
at the picture of the building, it really seems out of place with the
surrounding buildings.
The
most interesting thing about this example is even the proposed building is still on
the planning stage, it is already experiencing the effect of the “lonely Tall
Mountain” sha. I am just wondering what will happen to the occupants when the
building is actually build!
