Have you lost a big amount of money today? Was your old vase or mirror broken in your apartment? If so, you might not have been practicing Feng Shui. This is the art of arranging things around a house or office or living space in a way that balances the life energies so occupants can enjoy good health and fortune.
The words Feng Shui actually have individual meanings when taken separately. The word Feng means wind while the word Shui means water. In the history of China, the elements water and wind are associated with good health and prosperity. This is why the Chinese believe good Feng Shui brings in good health and fortune while bad Feng Shui does the opposite.
We can can easily understand how Feng Shui can change our lives by just looking at its real meaning. Here are a few tips that you can use so that you can attract good energies in your living space or perhaps in your work station:
The compass and the Ba-Gua are the things used in analyzing. You may have seen an octagonal grid that contains a symbol li Ching. This is actually called Ba-Gua which is an ancient tool of the Chinese. Today however, these is merely used as a home decor. Knowing your home's Ba-Gua lets you understand the different connections between certain Feng Shui points and their effect on your life.
This can also be used as a mirror. Chinese believe that mirrors are the aspirin of Feng Shui. When you place your mirrors properly in your home shifts the flow of energy and makes it more positive. For example, it is not advisable to put a mirror behind a bed.
Yet another tool is a clock. Contrary to the myth claiming clocks are bad Feng Shui, they are actually good for attracting positive energy.
Nevertheless, you should never put a clock inside your bedroom because it is supposed to be a place where you should relax and the only clock you should be concerned about is your own body clock. One may use a small alarm clock in this room, though, for practical reasons.
Another very popular tool in Feng Shui are natural crystals. These are bright, transparent, solid and naturally inclined to draw energy from earth. There are many types of natural crystals, including quartz, celestite and obsidian and each brings a different type of good luck or fortune.
You can also pair crystals with a ceramic rooster to bring in good energy into your home and to invite wealth and prosperity to your business.
Feng shui principles have a major impact when somebody is willing to buy a house. It is necessary to have basic knowledge of it while dealing with the new house. There are various things which one should consider like whether the house has energy i.e. "qi" associated or whether the house has many other problems which would affect the person staying there adversely, etc. If there are problems surrounding the house, the negativity of that has an effect on the human mind and body.
While observing the house before buying, a person interested should observe certain things. These things include exposed ceiling beams, missing corners and doors or slanted ceiling, etc. There are other important things where one should pay attention like position of doors with respect to position of windows, location of front door and position of staircase with respect to that. Areas which are affected with problems shall surely produce bad feng shui. But one should keep in mind that there are cures for all the problems. These effective cures can be made with the help of simple things and techniques like wind chime, water fountain, crystal balls, mirror, pyramids, etc. But if the house has too many problems which shall be difficult to rectify then the person interested is advised to reject that house.
