While second-hand items can be a sustainable and economical choice. However, people who are sensitive to energy or care so much about Feng Shui might concern about the concept of "negative energy" associated with used products. It could be due to the energy from the previous user attached to the item, or simply because old items may carry wear and tear.

In the Feng Shui perspective, if an item has a negative history or brings up negative emotions, it may be considered less suitable for a harmonious environment. Some practitioners even cleanse second-hand items to remove any residual energy from previous owners with various cleansing methods and rituals before using them. However, this could be subjective, and not all Feng Shui practitioners hold the same views.

Nevertheless, people who are into feng shui considers the personal connection and energy resonance with objects. If you have positive feelings toward a second-hand item and it aligns with your personal energy, it can be considered beneficial in Feng Shui. Some people like to set good intention or positive rituals to enhance the luck and energy before using a new product or moving to a new place. A lot of us are naturally choosing new over old and most people would prefer to use brand new products instead of the used ones if there is an option.

Regardless of whether an item is new or second-hand, Feng Shui emphasizes the proper placement and arrangement of objects in a space to create a balanced and harmonious environment. If you follow Feng Shui practices and are concerned about the energy of second-hand items, you may choose to cleanse and arrange them in a way that aligns with your beliefs. Ultimately, the goal is to create a space that feels good and supportive to you.

Feng Shui principles can vary among people, and personal beliefs play a significant role. There is no one size fits all magic. At the end of the day, the intention of implementing Feng Shui in our life to create harmonious energy is the most important.
