I understand that when looking for a piece of land to build a house on, the frontage of the lot needs to be narrower than the back/rear. Is there any truth to this? If so, are there anyfengshui fixes?

Thank you in advance for your guidance.

Basically, the one to be most concern is to have a frontage or opening which is larger than the back/rear. This is because it is like you have a head that is too large for your body. Imagine if you have a head larger than your body, it will be a burden to your body in terms of being able to balance yourself properly when walking.

Thus, it is more ideal if you have a frontage that is narrower than the back. Of course, each plot of land is unqiue so you have to see each plot to be able to comment if it is good or bad in relation to the surrounding environment.

Generally, the only other fixes is to ensure that the house is squarish and big enough to cover the plot without any further missing corners etc to add to the problem. Andto fix up other feng shui leask in the home.

Hope that helps.
