Feng Shui CrazyMaking My World A Better One

It is said that screens are excellent feng shui remedies and they also of course, make superb room dividers.  Screens can solve a multitude of feng shui problems associated with fast moving, killing breath.  Screens can block, dissolve and dissipate bad energy (shar chi) but they must be placed in a straight line, either suspended from the ceiling or firmly attached to the ground.  If placed in a zigzag fashion, shar chi will accumulate.

I was attending a housewarming last weekend and thought about what I saw in my friend’s home.  Don’t get me wrong - I loved the home and i’m sure they will be happy with their new home but I have problems with the square pillars in their home for i’ve read that square pillars can caused problems with feng shui.

So what do one do if their home already has some square structural pillars in their home?  well, if you cannot remove the pillar, I read that if they are facing directly at your entrance - you should cover them with mirrors or other reflective material or softened with creeping plants.

Round pillars are said to be less harmful to your home and the people in your home, and if they are frame around the front door - it’s alright.  But if they face your front door than it might cause a similar problem like the square pillars - so home owners be careful now.

I was told once never to use a chipped glass or plate or anything you use to eat and drink.  Or even from tea pot that is broken in any way.  It is said that by using a chipped glass or a flawed one - represents that whatever you say using your mouth is cut and therefore making your speech not reliable. So remember - if you have chipped glass or crockery please replace them immediately.

After being in business for almost 13 year - this year - I figured we should redo our business sign.  But wait a minute - I’m also afraid that if I do it wrongly it might affect our business - afterall, business had been really good for us for the last few years and we are really moving ahead and managed to save a ton of money.

I’m sure a lot of you feel the same way as I - and since I don’t have a feng shui master with us in this town - what do I do?  I don’t want to be responsible for bring our business down right?  So I’m doing a bit more research on what color I can use and what shape and size the sign should be but I’ll have to say anything is better than our old sign?  But before you do a business sign - I strongly suggest you do your research first - or speak with a feng shui master - because the business sign is a very important piece of information to your wealth of your business.

Yes! i long to get a man made water fountain for the store or home - so that our wealth will continue to come and our business grows bigger and we make so much money we can retire earlier.   But wait a minute - I’ve heard it’s important where you place your man made water fountain and also how it is being made.  If you are not careful - your man made water fountain may make you lose money than make money.  The spouse said why fix things that are not broken - he is pretty happy about our financial status but who wouldn’t want more money to spend and to go for vacation right?

More on the type of man made water fountain for the store and your home in another post.

As the year comes to an end - and the dragon year approaches - what can we look forward to 2012 - I hear everyone asking.   So according to Joey Yap - the wealth is in the West for the year 2012 - so everyone make sure you find your West part of your house and office and spend more time there whenever possible.  Of course, with the good - there is always things and places to avoid too - for the year 2012 - the south east is a place to avoid - so if you do a lot of things in the south east - try to keep this end inactive.

But what if we work in the SE area of the office or the SE area is our tv room?  what can be done?  I too would like to find out - I’ll check the answer and get back to you about it.

I have an aunt and she isn’t ugly nor fat at all - but why doesn’t she have a boyfriend and why did she only get married when she was closed to 49 yrs old?  Yes - my aunt only got married at 49 - very strange for someone who is not bad looking and comes from a good background right?  And how did she find the love of her life?  Well, initially  - she blames it on having to look after my grandfather - so she wasn’t able to get involved with a man - or someone that my grandfather would approved - but she did eventually get married to someone who doesn’t know how to even read in English and for someone who finished her college really strange right?  So why did she married beneath her? and is she happy?  I guess so - and at 49 for a Asian - she should consider herself lucky?

Well, if you don’t want to be like my aunt - it’s time to empower your own relationship and start to act on it.  How?   Most Asian thinks that when you are more than 30 years old you will not find the right person to fall in love with - and so they closed their hearts and they don’t look around for the one that is just there for them.  Some are even worst - they decided that they don’t need to even put on make up when they go out of the house.   Now if you are serious about finding someone to share your life with - open your heart - have faith, stay positive and have a decent outlook of your life and stop being so grumpy - the world is not against you.

Be happy with yourself first - learn to enjoy the things around you and stop mopping around the house in your PJs and activate your social network.  Go out have fun with friends, whether they are boys or girls.  Wear pastel color clothing, learn to smell nice, go to the dentist and have your teeth whiten or cleaned so that you have confidence when you chat up with the opposite sex.  Empower your relationship now before the end of the year - find the one for you.

With a little bit of help from Feng Shui - we can all have a great Christmas.  Now why won’t we have a great Christmas - I hear you asking?  well - with so many parties to attend - Christmas presents to buy - and also the outlaws to take care of - it can get quite stressful and messy.  And when one is stressed - we start screaming at each other and some even might curse their friends, siblings or partners.  But it doesn’t have to be this way - with a little bit of feng shui - I’m pretty sure - we can all have a great Christmas.

Colors for Christmas - bringing the Fire into your home - also needs to have some sort of balance - and by using some blue - you can balance the Fire - to bring joy to the home - and then using blue colors to bring calm to the season.

By placing your Christmas Tree at the right position of your home - you can bring in health and love in the East, Money and Abundance in the Southeast and Fame and Reputation at the South Corner.   Use candles to bring in the energy in your home.

And my favorite advise to everyone is to use essential oil to bring in fragrance to your home - to bring in the good mood and cheer in your home.  It is said that using essential oil is great for feng shui in your home.  And lastly - some poinsettias are great Christmas plants for your home this Christmas and remembering that using feng shui for healing and bringing in energy for Christmas is to bring love to the home.

As 2011 is coming to an end soon - you must be wondering what you should do to end the year well right?  I too wonder about it - a lot during the past few days - so I did a little research and found that I can make preparation to welcome another new year.

I hear that one of the important things to do - is to clear out your refrigerator of old stuff and stock up the fridge for the new year - a symbol for abundance I think - and doing away with the old.  And since it’s the new year you are welcoming - a good cleaning of the entire house is a very good year to start positively - make sense right?

I also see a lot of fun things you can do to welcome the new year.  From buying a new plant to a new wallet - and have some money in your wallet of course - and then you can start doing the laundry, clean out the refrigerator and dust of the dust every where in your home.  They say to invite a toad to your home too - or use figurine if you don’t like the real toad.   And of course, don’t forget the bathroom - clean that room too.  And most important celebrate !  celebration brings in the joyous spirit and when you bring joy into your home - how can the good luck not follow right?

I would love to buy one of this trees to be put at home.  It is said that the Honey Calcite tree is used to enhance psychic abilities and thus help you to have a high consciousness, it is said to enhance intellect and memory  - great for someone like myself - who is an owner by association to the spouse’s business.

Aside from that - it is said that it’s beneficial for one’s health especially the kidney, bladder and the female organs plus menopause.  Used by massage therapist as massage stones for the longest time and also great for children with bed wetting problems.  The gold wire on the trunk of the tree symbolizes wealth and prosperity.   So now you can understand why I want one of this Honey Calcite tree right.
