Feng Shui - Testimonials
ANGELA
I’m a mother with four lively young children and a husband who
frequently travels abroad.
We live in a large house surrounded by land in
rural Essex. I asked Jon to look at the plans of our extension proposals
and whether the acquisition of neighbouring land would be useful or
not to our property.
Jon spent several hours at my home looking at
the surrounding land and discussing my concerns and all the possibilities
that my husband and I had regarding changes. He spent a lot of time
engrossed in what looked like complicated calculations and at the end
sat us down to explain what he’d discovered.
From my limited knowledge of Feng Shui, I was
curious and open to see what he suggested. A lot of the advice he gave
us was practical and common sense. For example, he pointed out that
the position of our outdoor temporary swimming pool was actually in
a position that could make me feel drained or isolated or cut off. He
suggested a relocation of the pool which we did. He also helped in great
detail to choose the design, the layout and suggest colours for the
new proposed kitchen.
I have to admit I feel a lot more secure and comfortable
in our newly refurbished home. There are still issues I am dealing with,
but I feel confident that I understand more of the process. What I found
intriguing and extremely useful was his take and understanding of my
children and my relationship with them. He’s helped me enormously
in understanding where my teenage daughter is at present in her life
and how best to relate to her. Any major decisions in my life are only
implemented once I have consulted him. I am not necessarily a huge believer
in Feng Shui, but it seems to work.

JANICE
My husband and I are both broadcasters and we have two small children
and live in a quiet, new development on the outskirts of Oxford.
I already knew a fair amount about Feng Shui from
reading books and attending a few courses. When we moved into our new
home, I wanted someone who knew their Feng Shui and who I knew I could
trust to evaluate our home and give us suggestions before we redecorated.
Jon asked us in advance for a scale floor plan
of our new home, which we provided, along with our dates of birth. What
we both found very helpful was his interpretation of our Stars using
9 Star Ki astrology. It was enormously helpful in understanding where
we were in terms of our career at that time and what the possibilities
looked like.
Using the Luo Pan compass and his formulas, Jon
was able to pick up the strong areas of chi within the property and
suggest how to tone down areas that were not so supportive. Since I
knew a little bit about Five Elements, I found it fascinating. Suggestions
were mainly related to colour and the usage of different parts of the
property. He also discovered the corner of an adjacent building that
was ‘attacking’ our back door and suggested we planted a
shrub to hide this undermining influence. He also felt very strongly
that since we lived at the far end of a cul-de-sac that we needed to
bring the chi straight to our front door and we have achieved this by
building a path directly to our property from the road.
Since his first visit we now have another child
and my husband’s career is going from strength to strength and
we love our new home. Jon is amazingly caring and considerate and very
reliable. It is always good to know that he is there at the end of the
phone if we ever need advice. I can highly recommend him to anyone.
JEAN & JOHN
I work in the City as the manager of an employment bureau and my husband
works in local government. We first met Jon seven years ago, when he
came to our home in West London to survey our home and give us advice.
We both learnt a lot about Feng Shui during his
visit. Both of us were under the impression, in those days, that it
was simply a matter of locating your wealth or health area! Jon opened
our eyes to a whole different approach to Feng Shui. He identified strong
and weak areas in the property and suggested simple, yet effective ways
to bring about change. He was also extremely accurate in his interpretation
of our dates of birth through a system of astrology that he uses called
9 Star Ki.
I was so impressed with his sincerity, integrity
and diligence to detail that I recommended him to both my brother and
my son for a consultation. In both cases (although I was not present)
I received brilliant feedback from them.
More recently, when John and I moved to our new
home in Essex, he came literally days after we moved in. He was able
to survey the home and garden and surrounding areas and give us feedback.
He loved the property and showed us how to enhance its strengths.
However, a year later we were still not 100% happy
with our home. Money was coming in and going out just as quickly. I
gave Jon a call and he was able to arrange a short visit to see if he
could spot anything extra.
Hidden behind the chalet at the bottom of the
garden, Jon discovered the drainage system off the roof was creating
a massive waste of water on the north of the property in what he called
the female side – the Tiger side. He immediately got excited and
said that the run-off water should face the other way and preferably
into water butts. He also gave me some great insights regarding my own
health, which came from his previous practice as a dietary consultant
and as a shiatsu practitioner.
Almost immediately the cash flow problem dried
up! I can highly recommend him and find his caring and calm presence
very reassuring. I would not hesitate in recommending him.
JOHN CAIRNS
Mini Feng Shui Surveys
I’m a television producer and live with
my wife and daughters in Fulham, London.
I was faced with two very important decisions
that would affect my family and my career. One was the need to relocate
my family to a new home, and secondly I needed to look for convenient
offices closer to where I lived. I asked Jon if he was free to look
at several properties with this in mind and give me his take on them
all. From what he told me, he would be capable of viewing the properties
briefly, taking some readings, doing some calculations and telling me
on the spot whether any of the properties were viable for my needs.
As far as the office locations were concerned,
we looked at three different sites. He took some 15/20 minutes to look
at the property outside and briefly inside. On each occasion I gave
him (as requested by Jon) a scale floor plan that I got from the estate
agents.
Over a cup of coffee nearby he was able to tell
me which one to go for and why. He also said that, should I want this
particular office more thoroughly surveyed, to give me an indication
of where to sit and what colours to use and how to utilise the space,
he would be willing to do so.
On the house hunting front, he was amazing. Both
my wife and I were very concerned whether the property we were looking
at and very close to acquiring was suitable or not. On one level we
were excited about the new home, but had some niggling doubts. Armed
with a floor plan and an agent hovering in the background, he was immediately
very excited and thrilled by the property. Outside later he was able
to explain to both my wife and I why he thought the property was so
lucky and what briefly we needed to be concerned about. We both gave
an enormous sigh of relief and I would not hesitate to recommend him.
It is his experience, knowledge, and, from what I have seen, his incredible
intuition and skill that I value.
KATHERINE
I’m a professional musician with a well-known
orchestra and am single and live in south-west London. For many years
I have been a great fan, and indeed a devotee, of the 9 Star system
of astrology. Among all the books on the subject, I find Jon’s
fascinating, simple and very accessible. To my delight and surprise
I found out that his knowledge of spatial Feng Shui was just as deep
as his broad experience with 9 Star astrology is.
I needed to find a suitable flat or house in south-west
London that would accommodate both myself and from time to time my mother
when she was in London. I had a specific area in London I was looking
at and a budget. I approached Jon and asked whether he would have a
quick look at a number of properties and be brutally honest and tell
me if any of them were suitable from his point of view.
Over the course of a month, we saw five different
properties. On each occasion he had a floor plan that I had received
from the agent, and took a good look at the property from the outside,
noted where it was in the street, and then had a brief look around inside.
He took various readings with his fascinating-looking Feng Shui compass
and then disappeared in his car for ten minutes engrossed in what looked
like rather complicated calculations. Without letting on too much, he
asked if we could view the next property. On one occasion we viewed
three properties within an hour and on another occasion, two.
It was the look on his face of excitement and
thrill when he entered the home that I currently live in – it
was rather like Eureka! I immediately knew that this was the property
I was looking for. He certainly confirmed this after doing his calculations,
and has been incredibly helpful and detailed in suggesting colours,
layout and kitchen design for my new home. Once I had decided on this
current property, he came back and gave it a more thorough survey and
now my builders and architects are working alongside his recommendations.
I feel very reassured that Jon checked the property
out. I feel secure here as a single woman and I feel that my future
is bright and I would recommend anyone looking to purchase a property
to ask Jon his opinion first. After all, for me it was the single biggest
investment of my life, and I wanted to get it right. Thank you Jon.

Jon Sandifer’s expertise as a Feng Shui
consultant is proven by the results I’ve achieved in my business.
When Jon came to be premises he spent a lot of time measuring the locations
with the Chinese compass. Jon then produced a comprehensive report detailing
several areas and where best to place certain items to gain the maximum
benefit and also which materials to use to get the best from the location.
I had no experience of Feng Shui before but have complete faith in it
now. I don’t know how it works but it does.
Jon suggested the layout of the building, the
colours to use in particular areas and the materials to use, e.g. wood
or metal. The effect has been amazing, creating a complete feeling of
calm which is especially noticeable when entering the premises –
this has been especially commented on by my customers. However, Jon
doesn’t leave you there. I have asked Jon’s advise about
certain situations and Jon can recognise when something has changed
in an area. When I put it back to how it should be the problem is resolved.
His expertise and dedication is brilliant.
Jon also produced an extremely accurate Chinese
horoscope reading for my son which was extremely accurate even though
Jon had never met him.
I would highly recommend Jon to anyone who is
thinking of having anything Feng Shui’d
R.T
I would like to thank you above all for the CARE
that you put into your visit to our company. Not only did you put a
lot of effort, but your care, detailed explanation and repetition really
made us understand what you were seeing. This made the difference in
being able to deal with the issues once you were gone.
In the end, I can safely say that the information that you have given
us has been very valuable in making us take action and make the tough
decisions that will be creating a positive impact on our bottomline.
I really recommend your service and plan to ask you to come back to
our office to update things in due time.
Best Regards,
R.T from Middle East
WENDY
I’m a company director with two adult sons and live in Esher,
Surrey.
I did a lot of reading about Feng Shui over ten
years ago and actually attended one of Jon’s seminars on the subject
in 1994. His knowledge of health, healing and 9 Star Astrology is superb.
I have consulted him on a number of occasions over the years regarding
Feng Shui, 9 Star Astrology and have had him compile Four Pillars Astrology
charts for all of my family.
On each and every occasion I was impressed by
his thoroughness and concern for detail. He has a very cheerful and
positive presence which my family and I have always found very reassuring.
Both of my sons run their own businesses and always
consult Jon before they make any major moves, or acquire property, or
when choosing a date to open a new branch of their business.
On too many occasions his predictions have been
far too accurate. He doesn’t deal with it in a scary way, but
simply in a more practical, down to earth and positive way. He always
gives you the common sense options when faced with a dilemma.
After all these years I regard Jon more as a friend
or indeed as a member of the family. He’s a delightful person
with a lovely family and a real gem. I would not hesitate in recommending
him.
Domestic/home consultations
"I have employed Jon Sandifer three times for consultations (one for a property that I was unhappy with, one for one that I simply wanted to optimize, and one for my business space) and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Every time I followed one of his suggestions I felt much more at ease with my living space, and when I was moving I found him both supportive and patient with all of the properties that I wanted to consider. I urged my friend to make use of his talents - she is a prominent lawyer in London and was highly sceptic of Feng Shui, but she was delighted with the service and care that she got."
I know very little about Feng Shui other than that it works. I think that like everything else, its success is down to the individual concerned, and Jon Sandifer (in my opinion) sets a remarkable precedence. And no, I am no relation - simply a very happy customer!

me over the years, especially at the moment with us moving home".
One to One Tuition
"Although I have had training and followed
several courses with different teachers in which different Feng Shui
methods were used, this proved to be a very interesting supplement".
"This proved to be a very educational
afternoon and I have become wiser in the use of the Compass Method of
Feng Shui in combination with the Five Elements".
"Jon explained the difference between
the Chinese and Japanese methods of Astrology".
"The step by step method that Jon Sandifer
used appealed to me and I will certainly integrate what he taught me
when advising my clients".

Clutter Clearing
I sent a plea to the Universe almighty
That someone comes to help and guide me
To show me where the light had gone
And teach me a new path to walk on.
The finest of men did answer me
Full of light, strength and dignity
His name was simple, yet held respect
Jon Sandifer the most noble man yet.
He brought along special men and women
Who did not judge the mess I now live in
They opened their thoughts and gave advice
And offered to help without thinking twice.
I took on board all they had to say
And cleared out the rubbish from that day
My mind is less troubled and so is my home
And about the mess I no longer moan.
So with thanks and gratitude I write this verse
Especially for the help of a special nurse
And Nicola who is working on a future more clear
You, Liam and Jon I will always hold dear.
My life and light has been given back to me
So now I can move forward a lot more freely
I am aiming for the stars and want you to know
That you all came and showed me the way to go.
With all my thanks
