Feng Shui, Pools and Fountains - Liquid Serenity

Water, one of the five key elements in Feng Shui design, is related to inspiration, relaxation, and the ability to “go with the flow” in life. Simply put, water is an antidote to stress. Whether you enjoy relaxing beside a pool or listening to the soothing sounds of a fountain, the following Feng Shui design guidelines will help you choose the perfect water feature for your home.

Pools Pools are the “king” of water features and tend to visually command the area where they’re located. Because they draw so much attention and take up a lion’s share of space, pools must be beautiful – or else! (As anyone knows who has seen a pool in disrepair) When a pool is kept sparkling clean and surrounded by inviting furniture, vibrant plants, and attractive lighting, it can transform a back yard into a magical paradise. Consider adding a waterfall to your pool design and site it to flow toward your house, symbolizing the flow of good fortune into your home.

Feng Shui design observes that water, a pool in this case, is best balanced by colors and things associated with the earth element. Cement, slate, brick, or tile in earthy colors, and . . . → Read More: Feng Shui, Pools and Fountains – Liquid Serenity

A Purse on the Floor is Money out the Door

It’s considered by some to be bad Feng Shui to put your purse on the floor. But besides that, there’s an old Chinese proverb that states “a purse on the floor is money out the door.” Your money, checkbook and credit cards are usually in your purse and putting them on the floor shows disrespect for the order of things and disregard for your wealth and money. You wouldn’t think of putting your bag of gold on the floor, would you?

I think the problem is that purses have gotten so big-we even call them “bags” now, as in, may I get your bags, said by the bellboy. They are practically as big as an overnight suitcase. When purses were small, we could sit them on the table at restaurants and they looked really cute. Or, we could place them on our laps while we ate. But now that purses are so large, it’s a bit of a problem and a practical issue. They’re so heavy we don’t want to hang them from our shoulders all the time, but we also don’t want to rudely put our giant personal belongings on someone’s desk or on the counter when checking out . . . → Read More: A Purse on the Floor is Money out the Door

Feng Shui Prosperity Place

One way to attract wealth and prosperity is to find the Feng Shui prosperity place in your home and add the appropriate objects and colors according to Feng Shui principles.

Our surroundings have a powerful effect on what we attract into our lives. When the energy around us is blocked or unbalanced, our prosperity, health, and relationships can be adversely affected. This is especially important when that blocked energy is located in the area I call your “prosperity place.”

Feng Shui improvements unblock the flow of positive energy, remove negative influences, and allow you to attract the prosperity and abundance you deserve.

The Bagua is the mapping chart used to map your home and find your “prosperity place.” The modern bagua is a grid corresponding to the nine critical aspects of your life.  To use this grid, stand at your front door facing in to your home and hold the map in front of you. Look at a bagua map and find the Wealth/Prosperity area in the upper left hand corner of your home. That’s your “prosperity place.”

What room occupies your “prosperity place?” If that room is neglected, cluttered, or empty, your prosperity will be restricted and negatively affected. . . . → Read More: Feng Shui Prosperity Place

What's in your Wealth Corner?

Much like the wind, we enjoy a healthy circulation of money that flows equally back and forth. So how is your money flow? Does your inflow support your outflow? Do you want a raise? Are you saving for a vacation or maybe a new car? Would you like to feel more financially secure?

Your Wealth corner (gua) is located in the rear left of your home and is associated with the money energy in your life. Take a critical look. How does it feel? Is it inspiring? Does it reflect your goals? Could it use some minor enhancements – enhancements that might better reflect your intentions?

Toilets, hanging plants, towels or shower curtains that hang down drain prosperity… Encourage the wealth to flow back into the home. As always, remember to keep toilet seats down and add standing, upward growing plants.

Pictures that step down a stairway, encourage energy to flow too quickly… Stabilize the flow by hanging pictures along a horizontal line.

Dead plants, urns of ashes, garbage cans, or things that are depressing encourage negativity and sadness… Replace with things that make you feel alive, grateful and happy. Consider adding a bamboo plant and nightlight with a red . . . → Read More: What’s in Your Wealth Corner?
