There’s a saying: “Children learn what they live.”
Recently an Indian son of a client called me to Feng Shui him. “Why?” I asked. Because I just did your dad’s Feng Shui?”
He replied, that he was still a small kid when I last Feng-Shuied him in their home and office, but now he was already CEO of his own food company! Oh, it was “like father like son,” and so set his appointment!
The late Baby Sabido, a Pizza Hut franchisee from way back complained, “Master, my nephew godson in Ateneo grade school, asked me for an arowana fish gift!”
“Why?” I asked. She shared that when she asked, the kid said his classmates told him that’s the way to be lucky and rich!
A millennial upon Feng Shui of the family new condo asked, “Master, why do we have to slant the kitchen stove?”
Her embarrassed parents tried to stop her before I answered, “My child, that’s to make you richer! If it wasn’t taught at the Ateneo, this will have five times internal rates of returns for your family investment in this condo!”
She nodded at her boyfriend as the parents smile in agreement. This was their second condo investment, by the way, in half a decade.
Another child whispered to me while we Feng-Shuied her new business, “Master, my lovelife please?”
“Why?” I asked.
“Mom doesn’t want.”
“Okay,” I said, “stick this mirror above your bedroom door as it’s ‘tumbok’ by the hallway.”
The next year, her mom was a doting proud grandmother to her eldest!
A millennial couple, who was previously gifted with a condo by the mom, was gifted this time with Feng Shui since it’s been five years that they had no baby yet! I whisper to the husband, “All rooms have bad Feng Shui. Cannot conceive baby! Do it in sala on the floor!” A month later the happy mother-in-law texted me of positive pregnancy test result – no not hers, her daughter’s!
Another couple did the same. Same case, I told the couple if they could make baby at balcony only facing pool. They had a baby!
Learning Feng Shui is not always fun! A toddler was surprised when in their condo I came to her bedroom with her mom. Both parents were Dragon, so we had to rid the house of all her dog stuff toy collection! She pushed me out of the room locked the door shouting to her mom,
“Mommy, my life was happy until I woke up and that Feng Shui man was taking away all my favorite dog toys!” She cried.
The mom replied, “Come on dress up we will give them all to your cousins today so you can play with them every weekend!” And the girl gladly opened her room with a smile!
Yes, children learn Feng Shui in this new exciting age. And truly it is heartrending to hear children call me “Master” and start asking questions about their lucky colors and friends!
Indeed, children are our future. Make sure they have all the love and lucks in the world! Never mind the looks!
