Is Your House in a Lock?
Relationship, Health or Money Problems? Your House Might Be in a Lock”
Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you work, money slips through your fingers, or that your home feels emotionally heavy—like something just won’t shift?
It might not be you. It could be your home.
In Feng Shui, we understand that homes go through energetic cycles—just like people. And in some cycles, a house can become “locked”—meaning the natural flow of energy that supports health, relationships, and abundance is restricted.
Is Your Home in a Feng Shui Lock??
In classical Feng Shui, homes are built under specific energy conditions based on their orientation and year of construction. These energy conditions follow 20-year cycles, known as Feng Shui time periods.
Some homes—depending on their orientation and when they were built—can fall into what’s called a “lock.”
There are two types of locks:
1. The 20-Year Lock
This means your home may be locked for an entire Feng Shui cycle—20 years—either for people, money, or both. During this time, relationships may struggle, health issues may linger, or financial energy might feel blocked—as if money is earned, but never quite sticks.
2. The Annual Lock
These occur on a shorter, year-by-year basis—typically from early February to the following February, aligned with the Chinese solar calendar. During this year, the flow of energy may feel particularly blocked in one area: people or finances.
What Happens in a Lock?
In a People Lock, the home may affect the occupants' ability to connect, communicate, conceive, or stay well.
In a Money Lock, income may feel unstable, or money may come in but seem to vanish just as fast.
Can You Fix a Locked House?
Yes—there are targeted Feng Shui remedies that can be placed to help neutralise the lock and rebalance the energy. But first, we need to determine if your home is in a lock.
