This is a perfect example of Poison Arrow Energy in Feng Shui. What you see here are triangular balconies on a building in Copenhagen. To explain what Poison Arrow Energy feels like, I always like to point a pen or pencil at someone and ask them how it feels. They immediately move away because it feels the same as if you were at knifepoint.

So what does a Poison Arrow do? it can encourage any number of unfortunate events: catastrophic illness, accidents, financial difficulties, and relationship problems. If it’s an office or other place of business there could be HR problems, cash flow issues, accidents in the workplace, or health problems.

Whenever you see a building with a pointed edge towards another building, that’s considered a poison arrow. It could be a corner of the building or an architectural feature such as in the above picture…thought I’ve never seen such a high concentration as this before. Years ago I heard of a bank that was directly across the street from a building with a large pointed architectural feature directed at the bank. That bank struggled to keep its doors open and allegedly finally had to shutter its doors. I have personally witnessed the effects of Poison Arrow Energy on a couple of my clients. Yes, there’s a way to mitigate it, but first you have to be aware of it. The easiest way to mitigate this energy is with landscaping or fencing. It can also be deflected with rounded objects such as gazing balls that are used in garden scapes. I prefer a more substantial barrier like a fence or a landscaping hedge because something small requires perfect placement to deflect the energy.

It is my understanding that the giant metal sculpture of a globe in front of the Trump Int’l building was placed there to mitigate a poison arrow from across the street. I would be interested to know if this building in Copenhagen faces any other buildings around it. It’s difficult to see on Google Earth.

I hope you have enjoyed this article. I’ll be adding posts about other Feng Shui principles in the future.
