An often overlooked but important consideration in Feng Shui is soil quality. The quality of the soil has a significant impact on the principles of Feng Shui. According to Feng Shui, the soil quality determines the flow of energy or Qi of the land. If the soil is fertile and healthy, it is believed that the energy will be positive and conducive to growth and prosperity. On the other hand, if the soil is poor and unhealthy, it can lead to stagnant or negative energy, hindering growth and causing problems. It's possible to improve the soil quality through natural means such as composting, adding organic matter, and planting cover crops, which can promote positive energy and enhance your overall Feng Shui.
