Identifying Potent Energy Places

Everyone uses their homes differently, and this also causes some confusion when we normally assume the most potent energy is at the front or main entrance, and the sleeping place of each person.



Potent Energy Places are different for every occupant of the premises, based on where they normally enter the building, where they sleep, work, play, meditate, converse and eat, etc… Sometimes ‘potent energy spaces’ are those ones where we kick shoes off and just ‘splat’, regularly... When I begin a consultation assessment of a building I usually ask the person (or people) to ‘introduce me’ to their home or business premises. This enables me to get a feel for how they use the place, which areas they like, what they feel needs attention, or if they particularly dislike any area or features of the property. This way I can identify their particular potent energy place or places.

As and adult I can look back on my Life Experience so far and see that in each phase I have depended upon a different area of the house for particular use. As a child my bedroom was mostly used for sleeping and playing, and I rarely spent any time in other rooms of the house. As an adolescent, the bedroom was used as ‘my domain’, my art room, my reading space, my sanctuary, and I only used the other rooms lightly as well, sometimes taking up a lot of time on the kitchen table late at night while studying… Then as a young adult in my own house I used the lounge-room and office mostly… As a new Mum most of my time was again spent in the main bedroom and hardly any other room was used. Now as a mother of three, I am using quite a lot of the rooms in my house! So it is only now during ‘this phase’ of my life that I am being influenced by many areas of the building’s energy.

From this perspective its easy to see why sometimes a person sets up a home office in a new part of the house and enjoys better success in business. Part of this could be down to better organisation of space, yes, but a lot of it will have to do with the energetic influences on that particular spot of the building!

To identify your most potent energy places
· Take a moment to observe where you spend a lot of your time.
· Write down three places you enjoy just sitting in at your house.
· Write down rooms that you rarely sit in at all.
· Write down room or spaces you do not use to ‘live’ in. (ie: storage, guest rooms, etc)
· After doing this assess just how much of your building you are using. (25%, 45%, 85%...)
· Colour in, on a quick and simple mudmap of your floorplan, the areas you use most.

The results are a good way of establishing your personal potent energy spaces.
Where are these places according to the Bagua? Is your Wealth sector completely undernourished with Chi Flow, or is it receiving a good amount of energetic stimulation? What about the Relationships, Family & Health, or Travel & Helpful People sector? 

Each area of your home requires some nourishment to activate its potential support for you and your Life Experience. When one area is undernourished, its natural potency is heavily subdued, and this will in turn correlate with the Life Experiences of the house’s occupants, but, it can correspond more with the occupant who is not using that area at all.

We all generally use the main entrance doorways of our buildings, so these areas should always be considered part of your handful of potent energy spaces. We all generally sleep around 6—10 hours in our bedrooms, so these again are one of your potent energy spaces.

Find out what kind of energy you are sleeping on and how the quality of your space is affecting your Life Experience by taking a look at the diagram of the Bagua, and then taking a compass reading of the direction you face when you look out your front door. From this you should be able to plot a general map of the compass directions onto your floorplan. Then you can see what sectors are nourished, and which sectors are possibly neglected.


What do you do if you find some areas aren’t being used at all?
Easy. You can choose to allot these spaces as ‘storage’ or ‘guest rooms’ of course, most people will have such places in their homes, but you need to have these spaces cleaned and organised.
· Nourishing them with a picture of a divine being, a beautiful statue, a gorgeous rock specimen or shell collection, that can be the spaces’ ‘occupant’ can also help to fill the void as well.
· Using some aromatherapy or burning incense is helpful at keeping the energy of those kinds of spaces ‘up’.
· Always give storage areas or guest rooms a good airing regularly to improve energy flow and keep the space ‘healthy’.
· You never know, you may even find these new spots in the house just right for some other use too!
