Evidence first. Tradition made inspectable.
Fluxreading is a traditional residential Feng Shui form-and-setting assessment supported by satellite imagery, an orientation baseline, and measured terrain evidence.
The model observes. The rulebook scores.
An AI vision model may identify spatial conditions in the imagery, but it does not choose the final numerical score. Those observations are converted into fixed quality tiers, checked against evidence strength and orientation confidence, and then scored by deterministic code. Uncertainty lowers confidence; it does not automatically lower the property score.
How a reading is built
Locate
The address is geocoded and matched to a rooftop coordinate and, when available, an entrance or routable point.
Observe
Far, mid, and near satellite views provide regional, neighborhood, and parcel-scale context. USGS samples add cardinal terrain context plus 50 m, 100 m, and 250 m facing/backing profiles when orientation is usable.
Classify
Visible conditions are classified by quality, evidence strength, severity, applicability, and whether they depend on the facing direction.
Score
The Rulebook applies fixed adjustments, confidence gates, duplicate-event protection, dimension weights, and structural score caps.
Five groups prevent correlated dimensions from being counted twice
The report still shows all eleven dimensions. For the overall Flux Score, related dimensions are first combined inside a fixed group, then the five group scores are weighted to 100%.
What the reading considers
The framework is primarily Form School / landscape-form Feng Shui. Environmental observations support the interpretation but do not replace it.
The larger terrain structure and the property’s position within it.
Space, release, and visual room along the likely primary living side.
How nearby streets approach, turn, terminate, or pass the property.
The usable and visually open space associated with the main-facing side.
The relative form and containment on the left and right sides.
Stable support behind the home without oppressive compression.
Visible water or movement patterns only when their relationship is meaningful.
The stability and exposure of the immediate building platform.
Freedom from directly evidenced road, structure, or terrain-form pressure.
Likely daylight and brightness, interpreted conservatively from exterior evidence.
Separation, calmness, and the ability of the setting to retain rather than leak.
A stable base before adjustments
The observation layer assigns a categorical quality tier to each dimension. Code maps each tier to the same numerical base every time, then applies only qualifying Rulebook events.
A nearby road is not automatically Sha—and a wall does not automatically make it irrelevant
The Rulebook distinguishes facing-side, sitting-side, lateral, and background roads. It also records distance, direct alignment, visibility, wall/vegetation/home/grade buffers, elevation, and verified noise or light before selecting affected dimensions.
Facing side
A close buffered fast road may modestly affect living-side openness, external pressure, and verified noise-related privacy. It does not reduce Backing.
Sitting side
A verified fast road behind the sitting side may affect Backing, external pressure, and privacy. A wall mitigates severity without erasing the relationship.
Background
A distant or multiply buffered road with no direct alignment and no verified noise/light remains context; proximity alone cannot push External Pressure into Mixed.
A concern is not a defect until it is verified
What works
Favorable conditions supported by direct visual or measured evidence.
Feng Shui considerations
Unfavorable form conditions directly supported by the available evidence and reflected in the score.
Still to confirm
Missing, provisional, indirect, or unmeasured information with no automatic penalty.
Entrance and main-facing side are not assumed to be the same
The initial entrance direction is estimated from the building coordinate toward an entrance or routable point. The primary living side is then inferred from visible form. Confidence always uses a 0–100 percentage scale. If the opposite entrance axis is only a fallback candidate, it remains capped at 55%; below 65%, orientation-dependent negative events cannot reduce the score. A user-confirmed correction reruns the reading at 100% orientation confidence.
What comes from where
What this analysis cannot establish
Satellite imagery may be dated, obscured, or too coarse to verify doors, windows, fences, vegetation, or how rooms are actually used.
Exterior imagery cannot replace an on-site compass reading, floor plan, site survey, inspection, title review, or local professional advice.
Terrain sampling is a regional proxy. It does not diagnose drainage, landslide, wildfire, flood, structural, or geotechnical risk.
Feng Shui is a traditional interpretive system. Fluxreading does not claim to scientifically measure qi or predict health, wealth, safety, or future events.
