Sloped backyard is considered bad feng shui because it leaves the house with no supporting energy. Traditionally, the back of the house is the area of the Turtle - the mystical, or celestial feng shui animal - which means the house needs the feng shui energy of support and steady, stable energy.

Ancient feng shui masters looked at a house as similar in its complex function to a human body. Just as your body is most comfortable when it has good back support - think of a comfortable armchair - the same applies to a house. Your house needs good feng shui backing in order to create and maintain good supporting energy for people living in the house.

What can you do, though, when this feng shui supporting energy is missing or is very weak? You just have to do your best and create it!

Here are some feng shui tips for a sloped backyard:

* The best solution to raise the energy in your backyard and stop the energy from leaking is by creating an organic wall/ a wall made from natural materials that blend in with the environment. This can be done with a tall wooden fence, a row of evergreens or a combination of the two. Feng shui of vertical wall gardens (for outdoors) is one of the best examples in this case.

* Tall lights installed at the end of your sloping backyard will also help raise the energy. Please note that this works best in addition to the organic wall. Choose strong shapes and colors to maximize the effect of lights as feng shui cures for a sloped backyard.

* Once you have done your best to stop the leakage of energy of a sloped backyard, focus on creating good energy in the backyard area by following the good garden feng shui principles. Bring life, color and a sense of stability to your backyard with smart landscaping, good feng shui products for garden, efficient garden lighting, and more.

The better, stronger energy you create in your sloped backyard, the more support is there for your home, and thus for you and your family. Well worth the effort!
