There is a little bit of a debate amongst traditional Feng Shui practitioners in how to assess a Mobile Home. When a regular home is being built, energies from the earth below will combine with the energies emanating from the stars and planets above. It helps define a combination of timing and orientation. When a roof is installed, it sandwiches these earthly and celestial energies into a magnetic field that can be calculated and interpretted. For example, we can say that a house which was built in 1965 that faces East is in a phase right now and until 2024 where it undermines fertility for the occupants trying to conceive. So, how can we interpret a Mobile Home which was manufactured somewhere and then placed on the land, without the same criteria as a regular construction? Some Feng Shui practitioners feel reduced to using more generic or basic interpretations for these kinds of living spaces. In my own practice, I have not reviewed a tremendous amount of Mobile Homes to date. If I have evaluated around 4,000 properties, I may have only assessed less than fifty Mobile Homes. But based on my experience so far, they do appear to collect and "house" similar energies as a house built right on the land. So, if a Mobile Home was placed on a piece of land in 1965(and not moved since)with an east-facing orientation, then that Mobile Home could easily have similar influences on the occupants as described for the conventionally built home. On a related note, not considered part of classical feng shui, but certainly something to consider: living inside a metal box could be undermining for your health over time. As a conductor for electrical fields, living in a metal box could be the final straw for someone with significant health problems. I have a dear friend who has struggled with treating her skin cancer, while living in a Mobile Home. She was instructed to move by a macro-biotic nutritionist, saying that living in a metal box was on par with living in a really polluted environment, counter-productive to getting well. In contrast to their basic, rectangular shape, Mobile Homes often have a non-obvious orientation. Do they face the street which they have been placed on or do they face the same direction as where the entry door is, often on the "side" of the mobile home? The orientation could go either way, depending on the location of other surrounding structures or landscaping features. So, what might appear to be a very simple space to analyze can in fact be a challenge. With Mobile Homes some of the basic principles regarding floor plans have to be modified, so they are dealt with on a case by case basis. Kartar Diamond is based in Southern California.
