Your Neighbors May Be Your Feng Shui Problem

By Candace Czarny, CFM, ASID, LEED AP, Subtle Energy Expert

When people think about solving their problems using Feng Shui most of the time they think about how the inside of the home is arranged, when is fact what is happening outside the home could be the culprit.

The energy from your neighbors’ homes, the cars on the street and the lay of the land could be taking your money, relationships and health.

Your home is where you come to relax and to enjoy yourself. When your home is not properly balanced, you may experience troubles with money, health, and love. In the practice of Feng Shui, you can begin to adjust the energy of your home, helping to make these parts of your life more prosperous and more effective. Here are some basic Feng Shui tips you need to employ.

The Outside Matters Too

Many people don’t think of the outside of the home as being a place that needs to be changed when it comes to Feng Shui. Too often, books and websites focus solely on the interior of the home. But the exterior of the home is the first area where energy can either enter or be blocked, thus this part of the home needs special attention. By spending time on developing the outside of the home, you can begin to see changes on the inside as well.

It all begins by creating space for the energy to enter your home. Your front door should open easily and it should be easily viewed from the street. Whenever you can, make sure to keep this door open to promote the flow of energy in your house.

Your front entrance is where the energy enters your home. If your neighbors are always arguing or you have a lot of “sha” energy(hard energy) from cars because you live on a busy street this is the energy that is coming into your home. The goal is to change or transmute this energy before it enters your home.

Protecting Your Home and Family

Sometimes, there is little you can do about the surroundings of your home – especially a busy and noisy street or loud neighbors. In order to help energetically protect your home from these disruptions, you might want to add some statuary to your yard. Feng Shui practitioners like to use Buddhas for their calming influence, but angels or dragons can work just as well. Find symbols of protection to place around your yard and your energy will be defended.

Elements to Use

Feng Shui also believes that balancing the elements of your home is important to energy restoration. Try to find ways to include water, fire, earth, metal, and wood in your landscaping. This way, you will be able to balance the energies outside and then bring these balanced energies inside your body as well.

Your home is the place where you should feel relaxed and at ease with your life. The energy should not promote struggles that are not there. With Feng Shui, you can make sure your energy flows.

Feng Shui: Some Useful Points

Humans are a part of the environment and everything affects us; the directions, the elements and even the placement of objects have a lot of significance in our lives. If we understand the energies that surround us and how best to harmonize our homes and offices with them, there can be a marked difference in our lives.

Feng Shui is a science of living in harmony with the environment so that the energies do not get disrupted. Healthy exchange of energies is vital for our physical and mental well being.

The scientific research has revealed that everything is energy. The smallest of the elements and matter can be broken down quarks which are nothing but energy. Einstein’s equation also reveals that matter and energy are interconvertible. Hence the principles of Feng Shui are actually quiet scientific. Fen Shui believes that everything has energy which is known as “chi”. The uninterrupted or the disrupted flow of this energy creates all the harmony or the problems in our lives. Hence the placement of objects, furniture, windows and doors needs to be in harmony with the environment. This harmony then permeates into the life of the person and brings prosperity.

There are many principles of Feng Shui which are simple and easy to follow, so here are some tips:

1. The entrance door or the main door of the house should be devoid of any clutter and dirt. Dirty smells or dirt should be kept away from the entrance since chi travels with the air and can bring dirty smells which can cause problems.

2. Mirrors facing your bed or on the side are strictly prohibited in Feng Shui since this can lead to a third person meddling into your relationship and cause fights.

3. The fashionable bunk beds are not allowed in Feng Shui since chi needs to circulate around and under the bed. Hence, the person sleeping in the lower bunk bed may have problems associated with health.

4. Many people like to decorate their homes with ornamental knives and swords. This is alright but you need to take care that the tips of these weapons should point in the direction of the doors and windows and not inside the house.

5. Clutter can really create havoc in your life since it blocks chi. Hence you need to keep your office space or worktable clean and clear so that positive energy abounds.

These are some general tips to enhance your life with Feng Shui. These days there are many divorces and break ups taking place.

Here are some Feng Shui tips to enhance your relationship with Feng Shui:

1. If you are in a new relationship, then you need to let go of the past. Throw away everything which has a connection to a past relationship, old photographs and keep sakes need to go so that new ones can come in.

2. People often have computers and televisions in their bedroom. However, we need to remember that bedrooms are basically meant for tranquility, romance and relaxation. Hence, find a different place for these equipments as their energies are in conflict with the bedroom. Television and other equipments have a yang energy which interferes with your sleep and relaxation and also does not let you concentrate on your partner.

These tips will help you in understanding and enhancing your relationships to bring peace and prosperity in your life.

What Is Feng Shui?

Feng Shui means “Wind and Water” – literally it refers to the topography of our planet and the way these forces of nature have shaped our landscape. It is a mystical practice blending ancient Chinese wisdom dating back at least 4000 years with cultural superstitions. This wisdom lays down guidelines for identifying and establishing favourable and unfavourable land sites and provides instructions on designing home layouts to dramatically enhance quality of life.

In the home Feng Shui features create harmonious relationships between partners, between parents and children, promotes good health and prosperity. In the workplace good Feng Shui creates opportunities for growth, attracts customers, increases profits and elevates prestige. An aura of goodwill pervades promoting good working relationships.

Good Feng Shui exists when the winds and water surrounding your home or workplace are well-balanced. Bad Feng Shui brings disasters, accidents, illness, lost opportunities and damaged reputations. Most of all bad Feng Shui causes unhappiness.

Feng Shui promotes living in harmony with the earth and it’s energies. It contends that the environment is full of powerful invisible energy lines, usually referred to as Sheng Chi – the Dragon’s Cosmic Breath. Some of these lines are auspicious while others are hostile. Feng Shui dictates ways of arranging you living or work space so that these energy lines create harmony rather than discord. The energy lines are harnessed to ensure they travel gently through the home and then gather and settle to bring good fortune. Inauspicious energy lines, Shar Chi, represent the killing breath. Feng Shui strongly warns against living or working in places hit by these hostile energy lines.

While the theory of Feng Shui is based on the Chinese view of the Universe the fundamentals are easily understood and applied. It’s laws relate to basic concepts of harmony and balance in the environment. There are two major schools of thought in Feng Shui; the Form School which diagnoses balance in terms of the shape and form of the terrain and the Compass School which takes a more precise view and uses the Luo Pan Compass extensively. Both schools of thought are equally important and both should be used to get the best from Feng Shui.

At it’s most basic Feng Shui is about the balance of opposites described as the Yin and the Yang – terms that most of us are now familiar with. According to Chinese wisdom all things are either the female Yin or the male Yang. Together these opposites make up the Universe and give each other meaning. One cannot exist without the other, for example without the Yin of darkness there cannot be the light of Yang. Feng Shui always includes an analysis of surroundings. Rooms that are too Yin lack sufficient energies to bring prosperity. Rooms that are too Yang have too much energy causing accidents and misfortune. A home must have balanced Yin and Yang to be auspicious and will be even more so if there is balanced Yin and Yang outside the home as well.

Buildings built too near hospitals, abattoirs, graveyards or prisons are too Yin because of the associations with death these places have. Also places of worship (churches, mosques, temples) give out too much Yin because of the mourning rituals associated with them. Rooms that have little sunlight or that are decorated in blue or grey, narrow or cramped rooms or rooms which have been occupied by a long time by a sick person have too much Yin.

Buildings constantly exposed to bright sunlight or heat, too near an electrical transmitter or large factory chimneys are too Yang. Rooms which have constant noise and that are painted in bright red, orange or yellow are too Yang.

A room should have elements of both Yin and Yang but never too much of one or the other. Black and white colour schemes are an example of Yin and Yang harmony but sounds and activity are also important. A silent room is too Yin, a noisy one too Yang. Remember that Feng Shui is a subtle blend of complimentary opposite energies and that is what you should strive to create.

Feng Shui Beginners: How to Use Feng Shui to Enhance Your Luck

Feng Shui is not a dish best served warm with some oyster sauce. It is the art of tuning you in with Mother Nature, so that she may notice you, stroke your head gently and impart upon you all of nature’s secret energies of wisdom, love, power, luck and wealth. People all over the world, including Chinese people have turned into the more antiquated recesses of history and have been using feng shui to enhance their prosperity and ensure their longevity. This is some literature for those not in the know, a feng shui for beginners so to speak – instructing all on how to use feng shui to enhance your luck.

Feng shui is using the power of colours, arrangement and design structures to make any living or working space sort of a tuning fork or sponge that can absorb as much good energy as it can to give you prosperity, luck and wisdom. Adversely, you could be stuck in a situation where the reverse is true, bad colours and odious arrangements make for the ‘scarecrow’ effect – driving away ‘Chi’ or good energy.

What we are concentrating here is on luck and I will explain a bit on that as well. Ancient masters of old China, well schooled in the arts of feng shui have divided luck into three bite sized and packaged portions. ‘Tien’, also known as luck of the heavens, ‘Ti’, a luck spawned from earth and ‘Ren’, the best luck of all, created from the tools of humanity and the individual.

Now Tien is the preset luck, it all depends on time of birth, location and family history. Ti and Ren however are entirely up to you. Ti or Earth Luck is the one you have the most control over. This luck is resonant with the energies of nature and they flow within the world we live in at every turn. This is also where feng shui is most applicable because these are the very energies or ‘Chi’ that you must tune to enjoy a lifetime of good luck and prosperity. The totality of the approach is this, what colours you use and how your house is arranged will decide how much and how often these energies will call on you and make themselves comfortable in your abode.

What you put in your house is also very important. Dried flowers, fake plants or anything with thorns or sharp jagged edges may just cut a swathe into the good energies and chase them away. Feng Shui identifies eight segments of life – career, relationship, health, travel, children, family, education and fame. Each of them has a place in any living and working space and anyone can use what they have or Feng Shui specific objects like crystals and stones to augment and control the amount of ‘Chi’ travelling through the house as well as balance the yin (masculine) and the yang (feminine) energies of the house – maintaining a balance that is ideal for wealth, luck and prosperity to grow. So use this feng shui for beginners guide as your first step towards enhancing your luck today.
