Upgrade Your Vacation With Feng Shui

Posted on by

“Surely of all the wonders of the world, the horizon is the greatest.”
– Freya Stark

Is an irresistible vista calling your name? We humans have a keen curiosity for distant horizons that only mobility can satisfy. If travel is on your current agenda for business or pleasure, romance or spiritual awakening upgrade your vacation with “Think Outside the Travel Channel” Feng Shui essentials. This collection of insights will help you experience your vacation in an entire new spirit. Learn how to play with the energetic field in far away places. Discover you can smooth out a difficult situation. Develop quick tools that help you enjoy the unfamiliar. Open your heart to the profound appreciation of foreign places (at home or abroad) and find yourself abundant with opportunities to form meaningful encounters.

Set Your Intention Imagine this experience to be all it can be. 27 days before your departure meditate daily. Visualize the feelings the vacation generates – the joy, the excitement and the flow. Visualize the places you listed on your itinerary. Hold that vibration for fifteen minutes. Your subconscious will take care of the details.

Make A Favorable Start Date selection is part of Feng Shui astrology. Choosing an auspicious date is a proper part of vacation planning. When your vacation incorporates Feng Shui principles, it has a higher degree of travel success. Helpful People show up easily to aid your journey and help you find your way when you are lost. Consult a Chinese calendar or email me (bette@shenmenfengshuic.com) for general auspicious dates. I will be happy to go over this with you for red envelopes (generally nine).

Travel With The Buddha One of my favorites. Purchase a small Buddha statue, one inch is good or it can be larger or smaller. Place it in a container that holds heat such as an incense holder or a cauldron. Place this in a private area like the top of your bedroom bureau for nine days. Each day offer incense, visualize this is your “Traveling Buddha” and it will protect you when you travel and bring good luck. Let the incense burn down and allow the ashes to fall onto the Buddha. On the tenth day take out the Buddha, do not brush off the incense and carry with you. See you are protected wherever you vacation to.

Start On The Right Foot The Red Carpet ceremony is performed when departing from your home for an business appointment, wedding or trip. Create auspicious opportunities and safety by placing a six-foot red cloth over the threshold of your front door. As you step down onto the carpet (cloth) with your left foot, visualize your trip is accident free and negative energy is cleansed. Make eight steps and end with the ninth step, your left foot, stepping of the the carpet. Fold and take with you. Do not go back into the house.

Boost Your Immune System Jet lag and time change can leave you overwhelmed quickly. Color influences how you feel. Make sure you feel good. Pack a scarf or ensemble that has the five elements-black, green, red, yellow and white or the rainbow colors. When you notice an overall weariness change to this. Visualize you are receiving vitality, radiance and balance from the color combinations and they are infusing your endocrine system with vital Ch’i.

Remove Stale Energy It might old, it could be negative. Don’t take chances with who or what resided in your room even if it is five star Hilton or private B&B. If you forgot to carry orange spray or a mister made with citrus essential oils, you can also use the peels of an orange to clear stale or negative energy. Cut nine circles, rubbed them in your hands then place them under your pillow for a great night’s sleep.

Use Insight Over Anger The biggest influence maintaining an upbeat attitude and the good luck coming. If you are prone to tension and you speak before you think, step back and “Swallow Your Saliva”, nine times. First create the saliva with the tip of your tongue on the upper palate of your mouth by moving your tongue back and forth 27 times. Then swish the saliva around your gums and teeth. While doing this think whether what you have to say will cause harm. Swallow then speak. It connects all the meridians in the body. Not only will this create positive relations but strengthen your organs, in particular your stomach and spleen. Setting intention is the motivating factor to maintaining a great vacation experience. You will see heart-felt results.

Bring Home Only Good Memories and Mementos Think about what you want to gain from this experience and what you want to remember in the days ahead. Purchasing hand crafted items that depict a country, an artisan, and an experience create good karma. You are supporting the local economy and the creativity of the local craftspeople. Choose something you absolutely adore and will use.

Keepsakes are an ever-present reminder of your most fondest moments and they can also be used to reinforce the Feng Shui in your home. Here are a few suggestions. To enhance the power of Heaven and the continuous support of Helpful People gua purchase a relic or statue. If you want to amplify your wealth, shop for a gilded mirror to draw in resources or a gold container that will hold intentions and symbols of money in your Wealth corner. If you want to create good luck in your budding romance. Purchase your Chinese Zodiac animal and your partner’s too. Purchase a three dimensional animal made of jade, boxwood or bone for your Partnership gua. If you are not living together purchase two of each, one set for your home and one for theirs. Display together in your Partnership gua of the bedroom. 

Relax. Be Safe. Enjoy.

Spring Into Your Dreams Feng Shui Style

Posted on by

“If you believe the impossible, the incredible can come true.”
– Terrance Mann, Field of Dreams

Are you as excited as I am about the arrival of April? Tulips, daffodils and sweet smelling hyacinths sprinkle the neighborhood flower beds, their resplendent glory bookmark this miraculous season called Spring. Their life force a harbinger that we benefit from the many pleasures Spring delivers when we bring the outside into our homes.

Feeling the urgency to make something happen? Spring is persistent. It pushes forward. It encourages our psyche to tap into our best self, to reclaim our vitality and to pioneer our aspirations. Its uprising force bolsters our enthusiasm, pressing us to believe we can do it all. If this is you and you’re ready for change, I think you’ll welcome the high vibration adjustments that replenish your career; grow a family member back to good health; plant seeds for a lasting relationship and help you bloom during difficult times so you can remain focused on realizing your field of dreams.

Boost Your health
Where do you go to make an impression on your immune system? The front door! The front door represents the entire household: your career, your future, your reputation, your head but also your health. Place nine potted plants on the inside of the front door to improve the health of a family member who is dealing with cancer or an illness.

Squash the Back Fence Talk
Popular plants for the front entry and walkways are New Zealand flax. Flax are spiky plants and spiky plants in the Feng Shui metaphor may invite scoundrels or people who are jealous of you and gossip about you. It may also indicate that the inhabitants will become distant, their energy becomes withdrawn, isolated, and “strange”. Use flowering and non flowering plants with round ovate leaves to remove the temptation that could destroy your reputation.

Banish Pandora’s Box
Place a large vase with a cut cherry blossom branch in the foyer or a dining room side table or living room coffee table. For in the Chinese metaphor the blossom represents beauty, courtesy and modesty. The fruit itself symbolizes immortality. And it is believed that cherrywood keeps evil spirits away. In ancient times cherry wood statues stood guard in front of aristocrats homes.

Pour Your Heart into Others
If you are a coach, a mentor or wish to teach, place an image of a plum tree in your home in most any area of the house. But if you want to share your wisdom effectively place it in the Knowledge gua. Here it will foster the qualities of a charismatic teacher and student relationship. The metaphor of plum means students everywhere (around the world).

Start Love on the Right Foot
Before you seriously seek a love relationship look around your bedroom. Is your bed in the right place? What color are your sheets and bed cover? What images have you hung on the walls? The peach is associated with luck, long life and the divine fruit of the gods. The Chinese believe it can make people perpetually young. The peach petals create an intense trance of love. The peach tree represents longevity and the peach wood wards off evil. As you begin your search place peach blossom petals in a bowl in the Relationship gua of your bedroom. Once you have found your beloved remove the petals (for you might attract another suitor) and replace them with an image of a peach tree to create a long lasting relationship. When you are certain of your partner take the image down and either plant a pear tree in your back yard or hang an image of a pear tree in your Relationship gua. The sound of pear in the Chinese language is the same as sharing.

Stage a New Chapter in Your Career
Your office desk and chair are the seat of your power. Whether at home or at work if you sit too close to the door your voice will not be heard. In other words, your boss and colleagues will dismiss what you say and treat you as an underling. Or if the side of your desk is facing the door, you may experience a headache on one side of your head. Both distract you from moving forward in your career. If you cannot move the desk, place a lush plant between you and the door to protect your Ch’i.

Bloom During Difficult Times
The persimmon fruit in the Chinese language sounds like “booming market”. Plant it as an adjustment for your business to prosper. If you cannot find a persimmon tree as a cure for wealth and prosperity or it does not grow well in your area, you can use an orange tree instead. And if you cannot plant a persimmon or an orange tree because you do not have property, a small orange tree in a pot will work. Find the Wealth gua on your lot or in your home, that is a good place for the orange tree.
