Top Feng Shui Gal Rx for Love, Relationships, and Life Mate Bliss

How to Attract the Relationship You Deeply Desire and Keep Your Soul Mate Connection Strong

Raindrops dripping from the drain pipes near the window woke me from my slumber. I turned away from the window and snuggled closer next to the soft dozing warmth of my husband. At the moment I opened my eyes, his eyes opened, too. We smiled and lay there quietly, relishing our palpable yet priceless connection. We cherished our time sleeping in on this cold morning. Inspired to read poetry aloud, we hardly got through two poems of Pablo Neruda's before we got more intimate in bed. We mirrored each other's affection. There was as much giving as there was getting. Yet, we felt energy that was greater than both of us: quantum energy. Somehow, coming together, we both felt bigger within than either one of us could have felt when separate. I felt we were truly soul mates who had declared our vows to be mates for life in this lifetime. I had not imagined before that feng shui to heal my heartbreak would yield such an impressive result for me now to be wife and mother. Feng shui for relationships is no joke. Read on if you desire to maximize your feng shui results beyond the typical revolving relationships that seem to just repeat the same frustrating dynamics, only with new “players” and faces.

The feng shui direction linked to relationships, intimacy, love, life mate, soul mate, marriage and whatever you desire to call your union is the Southwest. China, the motherland of feng shui, has been practicing such for over 5000 years. Since China is in the Northern Hemisphere, the most hot time of the day is when the sun sits South. This represents the passion of courtship. However, if you desire a real life relationship, you don't want something that is just a fling—something that will just flare up and die as soon as it is ignited or when it runs out of fuel. You want something warm and lasting. The Southeast is warm indeed, since this direction is where the sun is still young, which is more characteristic of teenage crush or Platonic love. The Southwest, however, is the direction that still has the benefit of the warmth of the South yet the more restful spirit of the West, where the sun starts to set and rest for the night. The Southwest direction has more of a sense of settling in, of making home, of being domestic. This is a wonderful direction to focus your intentions for your soul mate.

Let's look at the Southwest in your domain, in your own home. Identify which part of your home is Southwest. Use a compass to identify the sector of your home that falls within these coordinates. You may place your master bedroom in this sector or another room that encourages active intimacy between you and your mate. For example, I have seen a cozy sun room in this area, too, which still encourages soul mate connection. This will help spice up your existing love life or make space for a life mate.

If you are struggling through many false starts and disappointing dates in your journey to unite with your unique soul mate match, look for the southwest sector within the southwest sector. This is a great place to create sacred space to set your intentions for your ideal mate. Setting your intentions has to do with mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical inquiries as to how you desire your relationship to truly be fulfilling. Some people write their intentions down in an inventory. Some people gather various objects of meaning to pile up in this sacred space. Some other people use visual illustrations, photos, or collages. Whatever way of setting your intentions speaks to you, make sure to visit this area often so that you review your intentions often. Every date you go on helps you clarify what you really desire in a life partnership, what you are not willing to settle for. If you are clear about what you are not willing to settle for, then honor that part of yourself and go on to the next person. If you are not clear about a person, soul search about what it is that makes you uncomfortable or unclear; yet, give yourself a timeline, such as by the third date or within the third week of the courtship you will gain clarity. Create clarity for yourself and the clarity will arise in the relationship.

Of course, setting a physical space and creating sacred space to house your intention for your ideal relationship is just the first step in laying the groundwork for feng shui to really transform a fundamental part of your way of relating with another person.

Feng Shui for the Baby: When Green Baby Products meet Living Orient Traditions

How to Arrange Your Environment to Maximize the Best Organic Energy Flow for Your Newborn

During a cold rainy day, there is no such pleasure greater than being cozy at home in a warm environment. In the last two days, I have been enjoying the rapture of preparing for my son's future, devoting time in front of my sewing machine. I had already cut up an organic cotton flannel twin-size flat bed sheet into multiple squares of cloths. The process is quite exhilarating as I put my creative arts skills to use for something so practical. The green baby or green nursery movement is well under way. Feng shui has much to do with this explosion of interest in such a field. Oftentimes, we see feng shui for adults: career, finances, home improvement, interior decorating, relationships. You name it. The feng shui of the future is a place for creativity, projects, children, reflection and more. By the time you finish reading this article, you will walk away with practical tips that is a marriage between feng shui and the eco baby movement.

The feng shui direction linked to creativity, children, and the future is the West. Much of the spearheading for green products have originated in the West. To the west of China, the motherland of feng shui, is Tibet. The Chinese call Tibet the “Treasure of the West.” Treasures consist of precious metals. Metal often has a reflective surface. That is why the West is also a place of reflection. In fact, even Tibet has been renown for its reflective meditative practices around the world. Even more West of Tibet is of course Europe and the United States, which is already spearheading a lot of green products and regulations. With the advent of green parents of course brings the green or eco baby movement and products. The West is also related to the future, because that is the direction where the sun heads toward each day. So of course, when we think of the future, we also think about who is going to be around and nowadays we also think of what is going to be around us. The future of our planet may very well lay in the hands of our green movement or “green revolution.”

To bring this more local, look immediately in your own home and nursery. Identify which part of your home and which part of your nursery is West. Use a compass to identify the sector of your home or nursery that falls within these coordinates. Ideally, it would be best for the westernmost part of your home to be where you design your nursery. West is not as cold as the north, nor as sunny as the south, and definitely out of the rising sun in the east. West is definitely a good place to go internal and rest. Sleep is what babies need a lot of in the first couple of years. So placing your green nursery in the west part of your home is a good idea.

The westernmost part of your green nursery can be where your baby sleeps. Ensure that you have the most baby-gentle products in the nursery. Nowadays, you can access natural ecological paints, eco-friendly carpets, and non-stained wooden blinds. You have much from which to choose. Even so, adhere to the baby-safe standards of keeping your crib away from the windows. Lending from feng shui, a solid headboard and footboard for the baby will also help the baby feel secure and supported. Keep the crib in view of the open door. To stem energy flow rushing in from the door, place a decorating carpet on the floor and hang a feng shui crystal from the ceiling between the crib and the door. This will help slow down and redistribute the energy flow.

Of course, finding a place in your home and in your nursery for your baby is just the first step. There are so many more ways to incorporate practical traditional feng shui knowledge with the leading edge of the green eco baby movement.

Is Feng Shui a Religion?!

How to Create Harmony, Peace, and Health No Matter What Remedies the Feng Shui Doc (or God) Prescribes

Feng shui may seem to be a religion. I have seen a number of feng shui cures and remedies that people seem to clutter up their homes religiously, from red ink on yellow paper that reminds me of the kind that I see in some Chinese Buddhist temples to different Buddhist deities like the Laughing Buddha and Kuan Yin the Goddess of Mercy in a corner of the home. I have also seen a number of acolytes seem to follow feng shui cures and remedies with a compass and swear by its use, even so far as to relate different sectors of the house to relationships and wealth! Yet, there is also an increasing number of feng shui cures and remedies that have no ties to Chinese culture nor any religious significance toward Buddhism, such as the use of gemstones and crystals in different corners of a room and rearranging modern everyday secular furniture around. So why is there such a big range of feng shui applications? Let's get to the root of feng shui to find the answer. Basically, feng shui is about energy flow.

Feng shui is about energy flow in the mind. By using feng shui, we change our mental processing by using repetition. This repetition serves to produce concentration and focus for what we desire in our lives, just as how some people are utilizing the Law of Attraction. The example about the red ink on yellow paper is no different from an affirmation written in any language on any piece of inkable surface (e.g., paper, cloth, mirror, etc.). Whenever we see this piece of paper or article, we recognize what we are using this item for. The repeated visual serves as a reminder to ourselves about what we are changing in our lives. The item serves as a visual shortcut to a mental thought process evolution.

Feng shui is also about energy flow in the environment. The examples of the Laughing Buddha and the Goddess of Mercy serve as objects in one's environment. These examples are also no different than putting a load of crystals and gemstones in one's environment. These objects serve as anchors within one's environment, again as visual shortcuts to add to that which we are desiring to change in our lives. We use objects in our environment to ultimately serve ourselves and our intentions.

In addition, feng shui is definitely connected to the energy flow of the planet. Although there are people who choose to use the Tibetan approach to feng shui looking at different corners of a home and there are also people who look at the different cardinal and intercardinal directions of a compass to determine the best feng shui energy, there is actually validity to why people use these methods. Let me put it this way: the sun will always rise east and warm up the whole planet to make plants grow. Is it any surprise that so many ancient cultures deified the sun or the direction east for that matter? In the Northern hemisphere, in a cold uninsulated house with single pane windows, there is just no way you can convince me to place my bedroom in the northernmost sector of the house. There is just no way that the sun can get to it. I will be freezing cold or have ultra-high electricity bills. In this recession economy, high utility bills is not an option. So would I expect abundance or cash flow if I place my bedroom in this sector of the house? Frankly, no.

So is feng shui a religion? Nope. Feng shui is a common-sense approach to practical matters. With that said, though, if a feng shui master says that such-and-such must be done in a one-size-fits-all solution, then I would most likely pose the question: “What purpose would this feng shui remedy fulfill?” Then, based on my existing resources, I will find a solution that is fit for me.
