If you could sit here now, do a constructive, directed daydream about your ideal year and what it would contain, how would you express this ideal in actions?
We may desire a year filled with the normal wishes for…
financial balance/abundance
relationship peace
loving family
career progression
nourishing experiences
success, etc.
Often obstacles that are present now are preventing these ideals eventuating into our current reality.
So how do you remove obstacles easily?
What can Feng Shui tell you about that!?
Isn’t it just for locating the best places for sleeping and eating and working etc?
Yes, and much, much more.
Observing the energy of your space (which is the basis of Feng Shui) you can clear obstacles in your life NOW that can make way for your ideal year to flow to you easily. How? Feng Shui is a study of energy movement, and at its core is the basic principle that everything in this universe is connected. If we change an aspect of our physical reality, it can manifest as a change in our active reality. It’s a very basic use of what is called The Law of Attraction or the Law of Resonance. (yes, The Secret really isn’t a secret at all) Everything is connected; therefore we can change our reality by changing our environment.
Here are the Top Tips for changing your reality by observing energy in your space, and making changes to your environment accordingly.
Examine your immediate environment at home and work.
Remove anything that does not support a specific purpose or that can not support a positive aspect of who you are now. That means possessions that are in the way, broken, unloved, unused etc. You get it…the basic de-cluttering exercise!
Identify what is currently draining energy flow, or preventing energy flow right NOW.
Make a list if necessary and then take part in a plan of action to eliminate as many ‘expenses’ as possible, and make as many potential ‘wealth streams’ flow towards you as you can. Doing ONE action is going to improve your energy flow, so this is a valuable exercise to undertake no matter what!
Wealth means different things to different people. (Eg: someone who is financially wealthy may be emotionally depleted, and may wish to open up emotionally nourishing wealth streams. Conversely someone who has a rich emotional connection with friends and family may have depleted finances, and so have to focus on opening financial wealth streams…)
Clear and clean the most pertinent areas of your space that relate to your main ideals for 2008.
North – Career and Life Purpose
Northwest – Travel and Helpful People (Assistance)
West – Creativity and Children
Southwest – Relationships
South – Reputation
Southeast – Growth and Wealth
East – Health and Family
Northeast - Knowledge and Self Cultivation
Place symbolic representations of your ‘ideals’ for any of these subjects, and use them to set up a ‘resonance space’ in your home or work. Eg: certificates of achievement in the South, pictures of family in the East, a study area in the Northeast, etc.
Face the most auspicious directions for 2008 while working.
Each year there are certain energy influences that shift, and mapping these was a large and involved exercise of the ancient Feng Shui Masters. Next year there is only one most auspicious direction to face while working (or for any long periods of time) and it is the South, specifically 135˚ to 225˚.
(If you can’t sit facing within this arc of SE, S, SW direction, then sitting side on is considered ok too. Sitting with your back to this energy influence can bring a potential for misfortune to occur)
Use the most auspicious locations of your building to invite success for endeavours.
Again, this was part of ancient Feng Shui knowledge and was considered extremely important to ensure success and avoid misfortune and obstacles. For 2008 it will be advisable to use:
East – for inviting Wealths
SE – for inviting future Wealths
Centre – for inviting Ideas
These three locations within a building will be supported by having the areas cleared and cleaned, set up for their purpose, and utilised with intentions for success!
Avoid the most inauspicious locations…
Avoiding the energy influences that invite obstacles into our lives is just as important as focussing on the helpful influences. Next year it will be best to keep the South and Northwest areas of our buildings clean, tidy and quiet. It is also pertinent to hang a beautiful six rod metal wind chime in these areas. This is an ancient Feng Shui remedy to ward of misfortune and remove ‘obstacle energy’.
Set yourself and ‘energy frequency’ for the year ahead.
Identify your main desire for 2008, and construct an affirmation or mantra that will pull this reality closer to you each time you focus on it. Eg: my main plan for 2007 was to, well, Plan. I constructed ‘Great things are happening to me NOW’, so that each time I felt slightly uninspired, dejected, or tired, I could refocus on the reality where amazing things were coming to me. This also had the effect of making me ‘think positive’ as I examined occurrences, helpful and unhelpful, for the ‘greatness’ within them.
Visually represent this frequency. You may like to set up a dream poster with your mantra written on it, and put pictures of things that resonate that energy around it during the year. Make it a year long project. You could do this on your computer as a screen saver or desktop file that grows throughout the year.
Use sound to represent the frequency. You may want to pick a ‘soundtrack’ to the year! A song or playlist that reflects this energetic frequency. Or you may use a chime or gong, or special bell to bring an awareness of this frequency to you.
Whatever your wishes are for 2008 and the future, I wish you Success in Easy, Simple and Prosperous ways.
Blessings
