Guest guest Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 Feng Shui For Spring " The Ancient Art of Placement. " Feng Shui (pronounced Fung Shway) is the ancient Chinese art of placement to enhance the flow of " vital life energy " known as Qi. Practitioners believe that rooms, buildings and all environments can be arranged and decorated in a way that maximizes the flow of Qi and, resulting in improvements to health and happiness of those who live in that environment. Although the translation of Feng Shui basically means " Wind and Water " , its scope and breathe are much deeper than this. Feng Shui is an expression of the oneness and interconnectedness of all things on all levels and all dimensions. This is a " key concept " in understanding how our essence relates to everything else around us, including our environment. As we begin to sense this oneness we then find that it is possible to gain insight from looking at our environment on a broader scale. It is often said that " Feng Shui teaches us what we already know " . Feng Shui Tips for Spring Health Wealth and Water Need increased prosperity? An energy boost? Perhaps better health? A tabletop fountain with the soothing sound of moving water is the appropriate cure. Whether on a desk, in the front entrance, in the kitchen or in the bedroom; nothing attracts wealth and good luck like a water fountain. Water fountains that pool water symbolize pooling wealth. The water element is about the flow of energy, clarity and attracts Qi, life force energy. Qi enhances health and prosperity. Turn the fountain so that the water flows to the center of the room or environment for maximum results, this brings Qi and good luck into the home or office. Running water helps move positive energy through the space. It is extremely soothing, very calming and sets a nice ambiance for any room. Money Luck For Home or Office Hang some small bells on the door handle on the outside of your main door of your home or office. Symbolically the sound of bells ringing announces the coming of good news and prosperity. Choose small bells made of metal, ceramic or crystal bells. When you use bells as a Feng Shui cure, you should tie them together with red thread or red ribbon. Tying the bells together with red string or thread activates the good luck remedy and sets in motion the symbolic value. Lucky With Coins Tape three coins tied with red thread, Yang side up, to your most important file in the office. The Yang side has four characters rather than two characters on the Yin side. This can be a sales or invoicing file or it can be your order book or the file of bank accounts. Placing the coins there will ensure your cash flow stays healthy throughout the New Year. Hang three Chinese I-Ching coins on the door handles of the inside of your main door. Tie the coins together with red string or thread in 8- inch increments to activate the prosperity already inside. Tie three coins with 8-inch cut red thread and put them in each handbag and wallet or purse. This activates a never-ending source of income. Three is a luck number as it represents the union of heaven, earth and man. The red thread activates the Yang energies of the coins. Empower Your Surroundings with Crystals Enhance mental clarity of mind and expand your thoughts by hanging a faceted crystal ball in the knowledge Bagua of your home, office or bedroom, or one in each place. For a richer effect, hang your crystal with a fishing line and add a red ribbon, cut to a multiple of 9 " in length. Enhance your career with a crystal over your sitting position. Hang it over your head where you sit at your desk. This cure protects you from attack and stimulates an expansion of knowledge and ideas, including clearer thinking, better decisions. Enhance inner growth, peace and deeper sleep with a crystal over or next to your bed. This cure promotes ease in falling asleep, peaceful dreams, calmness and freedom.
