PARLIAMENT HOUSE CAUSING TOO MUCH POLITICKING ?
IS AUSTRALIA’S BILLION DOLLAR
Melbourne-based expert Jancy Lew checks out the way of the winds here in Canberra.
T
he building took seven years to build and it cost the Australian Government over a billion Aussi dollars.
Inaugurated on 9 May 1988, this Period of 7 building has many troublesome feng shui features that could be causing an excess of internal politics for the country. The building covers an area of 250,000 square meters, and sits on 32 hectares of

land. Designed by Italian architect Romaldo Giurgola of the famed New York based firm Mitchell/ Giurgola, the building sits on top of a slope overlooking the old parliament building, facing North, with a broad expanse of space in front of the main entrance, which forms a bright hall effect for the building.
MOUNTAIN & WATER This bright hall is good feng shui of
course, but there is more. There is a mountain behind signifying support, power and authority, and it faces a lake in front, signifying money luck. The Government of Australia will not go the way of Greece for sure. Building for prosperity is an important aspect for buildings like this for they affect the feng shui of the entire country. Beyond the lake is a “Table Mountain” which happily stores the “Chi” - so far so good, for this kind of planning is generally considered to be an excellent formation in feng shui; where mountain meets water is where the “Chi” will gather.
