Dursley is a small market town in the Cotswold. It appears to be doing well but there are signs that it has seen better days. At the moment, change is happening – a new Sainsbury’s superstore has just opened.

But, there is one area in Silver Street that is very different from the rest. Why?

Silver Street at the narrow point

This area of Silver Street is lined with shops on both side of the road but they have been closed or boarded up for quite some time. It is certainly not a prosperous area. Why?

Could it be because it is -
- not receiving any energy?
- getting inauspicious energy from a “poor” compass direction?
- anything else?

Description of the area.

The energy (red arrows) from the 2 roads from the town centre (from the West) and Long Street (from the north east) join at the junction and then flow downhill to Silver Street. This part of Silver street is the lowest level.

Interpretation:

1. The area is filled with energy from the roads from the Town centre and Long Street.

2. The west and north-east compass directions are auspicious directions at the moment.

3. When you look at the image below, the street at this point is narrows; there is a small pavement (side walk) on either side and the road narrows. This narrowing of the road would compress the energy making it move faster, thereby causing turbulence – making this location inauspicious.

Conclusion:
In the town centre, the street is wide. The energy can move slowly through the town thereby distributing the energy evenly. When the energy starts to move faster, as this location on Silver Street, the energy loses its “vitality” and the place is no longer prosperous.

When Energy moves too fast, it is inauspicious. Energy is auspicious when it moves slowly.

As it is, this part of Dursley will be the weakest when the economic upturn returns. The only solution that I can suggest would be a re-development of the area – the rebuilding of one side of the road.  Thereby, the buildings on both sides of the road will be further apart, the energy will move slower and the place will be really prosperous. It has the potential to be a very prosperous location as it is “fed” with really good auspicious energy.
