The Great Feng Shui software product was designed to simplify some of the arcane calculations that are part of feng shui, and to supply the background knowledge and theory of feng shui principles so that someone who is learning the art will have the direction and support they need to make their own decisions without hiring a costly feng shui practitioner. The software can point out potential problems and suggest likely remedies. You then choose what course to take, and watch the effect that your change has made on the energy of your home.

Create a Profile for each member of your household and calculate their KUA or Nine Ki number. This number is used by Compass School Feng Shui and Nine Star Ki astrology to indicate what colors, patterns, materials, and locations inside of your home are most compatible with you. Create a Location to define the floorplan of your home. Each room you add to the floorplan will generate a feng shui analysis based on the type of room and the location of the room in the home for the actively selected Profile. The analysis will tell you if the room is located in an area of your home that is suitable for its intended function. It will also tell you if the location is beneficial for the active Profile, and what kinds of decorating tips can be used to make best use of the room in this location. Also available are Nine Star Ki charts for recommending the best directions to move, or the best locations within the home to remodel or redecorate in a given year. Or, given the direction of the move or location to remodel, the charts will indicate which years would be most suitable.
