Chinese New Year is just round the corner and you and I know that as Asians we believed in doing our spring cleaning before the 1st day of Lunar New Year .. because it is good luck! Why ? because it heralds in a fresh start, prosperity, longevity and happiness year-round this way, too. So keep those laptops away and the dirty brooms and dustpan when you are done to welcome the wealth God on the eve of Chinese New Year.
Don’t clean your house or office on the first few days of Chinese New Year. Don’t forget to get those oranges for the house - to symbolize lots of wealth, richness in your household.
Balance is very important to creating spaces that are supportive and “feel” right. Here on Earth, the Five Energies are part of all that exists, including people, places and objects. It’s really common sense - just like getting an electric blanket when one is cold during the winter if you have no wood stove at home.
Too much of 1 can dominate the other 4, and too little of one or more can produce surroundings that are “off-balance”. Usually, you can feel (maybe without even realizing it) when you are nervous, overly stimulated, or too lethargic to take action on important issues. When your home, work and play environments are not in alignment, balancing The 5 Elements Energies and their Yin & Yang counterparts can restore peace, calm and efficiency in your life.
It’s only the beginning of the year.. and when buying proactiv , i saw this map on sale and couldn’t helped but think of my path for feng shuiing my year. For many years.. i’ve heard many techniques used to enhance one’s feng shui for the year and one of them is to create what your heart desire for the year and then develop a treasure map for it.
I know .. you must be thinking .. i must be crazy right about now.. but wait.. a Treasure Map, is actually used as a variation for a Vision Board. It displays visual images of a wish, planting the goal in the conscious and subconscious. I hear it is very effective to set goals - think carefully about what it is that you REALLY want. Since this technique can be so effective, do not put anything on your board that is a wishy-washy desire.
Going on vacation and visiting some honolulu hotels for a site inspection was not a out of an ordinary thing for us - hoteliers. But one thing that strike me most about any hotels would be its surroundings and how well they are kept. You kinda know which hotels has got good feng shui and which one doesn’t as soon as you step into the property. Like the ones we went to on vacation, the air-con was strong - but as soon as the doors opened to the hotel, there was this fragrant smell coming out from the hotel - a quick whiff of it not only made me feel refreshed, i cannot help thinking that this nice smelling hotel is clean and refreshed. So if you want good feng shui in the office or home, remember to make sure that your garbage are cleaned and your home is kept clean too. Moldiness and dirty looking area - is not only not good for feng shui, you can be sure that it is not an inviting place at all.
Many have asked me if there is such a thing as successful living using Feng Shui and time and time again, I have to remind people that Feng Shui is not black magic.. or it is not some kinda instant gratification. Even God needs time to perform a miracle - but like God.. you have to help yourself .. so that God can help you. So with feng shui, if you want to be successful and taking orlando vacations every year .. or a few times a year like your neighbours or your cousins.. or even your sister in law, you have to work on it. So look back at all my other posts.. and go from there.. i have tips for just about everything and anything .. to help you live a more successful life.
Like buying rv insurance , with Feng Shui .. one has to be careful where you place your mirror. What you want is to make sure you absorb the good stuff. For example .. what reflects in your mirror is definitely a consideration you have to take. One can use the above concave mirror to help absorb the good stuff.. and good chi or the life force energy into your surroundings. Remember, mirrors hung on walls should be placed so that whatever it is that is directly reflected adds to the beauty of the space.
Someone asked me the other day, can one feng shui your car..?? because they had bought a 2nd hand car .. that was on sale for a very good price, it even came with oil change absolutely free of charge. Too good to be true .. she told me. Sure one can feng shui your car and if you bought it second hand, more so you should do the cleansing procedure like when you buy an antique, follow up with all the good thoughts and all the good places you want to go .. and then hang the above in your car for a successful trip. No worries from now on or a need to get acne treatment.
The Jade Dragon Carp Tassel works exactly like Feng Shui Fishes, except that health benefits are also added in this auspicious item. What’s more, it’s portable! What more can you ask for wealth luck?
The Dragon Carps are a constant reminder of the pursuit of excellence and high ambitions. They are said to provide the positive energies by which many have achieved greatness. You too can have the Dragon Carps help you cross your “Dragon Gates” to achieve whatever goals you may have set.
Many friends and family asked me how i managed to sell my first house so quickly.. and also making a profit outta it. But the way I sold my house was by using the feng shui way. First i had my AC filters changed since, it was a hot summer when i sold my house.. and i wanted to make sure.. that the air con was running good.
First impression counts.. but i also follow the feng shui instruction of putting fresh flowers on the day of the showing.. and made sure i had a light refreshing scented candle in the background. Not strong or anything.. but refreshing. I also made sure that the prospective buyer can see that .. the house is nice and bright.. and even though i am staying in the middle block.. i was able to turn on some soft light .. to give it a more warmth feeling.
I also made sure to remove items that may be considered “negative” or controversial by prospects, such as dark or heavy paintings. We know a real estate agent who lost a sale due to a large, threatening painting on the living room wall
Keep good Chi energy in the house by closing water drains - the shower door, toilets and the washing machine and i also played some very soft music in the background. I hope all the above tips will help you .. because it certain did mine.
You would be amazed at the amount of consultations that we have been to and found the occupants have either been told by a practitioner or read a book advising to place a Ba Gua mirror inside their home to make their bathroom disappear or some similar nonsense, what a load of codswallop. I cannot stress this enough, NEVER use a Ba Gua inside a home or office, it is not like doing colon cleanse reviews, it’s non-negotiable.
I don’t care who has told you and how they have justified it. You never ever use them indoors. There are circumstances that you can use them, they are special ones that you should not find on any website, we sell them but only to trained Practitioners.
The ones that we sell to the public are before heaven Ba Gua (see below) these can only be used outdoors, they show the Trigram with three un-broken lines at the top and they come with a hook so you cannot go wrong in placement. Be careful when buying them from other shops as we have seen the arrangement completely wrong and this can be dangerous.
The one you use inside is after-heaven Ba Gua, the arrangement of the Trigrams are completely different and can only be used by a trained practitioner.
