1. Feng Shui is arranging your environment to enhance your life. When taken seriously it changes lives. 2. Consciousness is displayed in your environment. Check your images, objects and colors. We want a calm strong environment - living with what we love.
3. Anything that is not living in your consciousness is, by definition, inert or dead.
4. Things are alive by their essence and by your thoughts and feelings connected to them.
5. Qi or energy goes where the eyes go, and where the mind and heart goes.
6. Everything is interconnected and interdependent. Everything that surrounds you is meant to lift and nurture you – have personal meaning for you – reflect your goals and dreams. 7. Set your intentions for positive change with clarity and purpose.
8. We are profoundly influenced by our environment both consciously and subconsciously as we interact with it on many levels. 9. Consciously choosing balance and harmony in our environment creates energetic currency in health, finances, relationships, emotional/spiritual well being. 10. In ancient China if an acupuncturist didn’t get results after three tries they would then look at the persons home for signs of ailment. 11. Moving specific energy around the house to specific locations is like acupuncture to the home and self. 12. QI/ENERGY; what ever happens is caused by it, what ever is, is made of it, you need it, you are made of it. Everything needs it. Everything is it. It is everything. You need it to run, to walk, to sit, to think, to sleep, and to eat, you use it every moment awake or asleep. You can’t get glad or mad without it. It makes the wind blow, rain fall and lightening zap and thunder. It “feeds” volcanoes and earthquakes. It drives tidal waves, typhoons and tornadoes. It powers the universe. It powers bacteria. 13. Consciousness and Energy create the nature of reality.
14. Feng Shui looks at psychological influences and sensitivity to our surroundings. It is the right placement of different qualities of energy. There is a very practical side to Feng Shui. 15. You are the energy that makes the world – your world – change your mind – change your day – change your day – change your week – change your week – so on.
16. Feng Shui can be a 1st tool with working with your personal space, to get you in the right frame of mind to open up your channels. It’s not a magic bullet, but a powerful tool for those who grasp it and use it. 17. We can use the metaphor of rain as people in their environment. We come from the heavens clear and pure as unique drops of rain landing on a mountain (earth). The mountain effects you, what you experience, see, feel, and absorb. At the same time you are affecting the mountain, creating a trough, touching animals, vegetation and each other. The same thing is happening on the other side of the mountain where you have never been and never had the experienced. The mountain is shaped differently over there, different encounters on a different path, different experience, and there too they are (rain/people) affecting the mountain earth. Your views and experiences are different than theirs, like societies and cultures somewhat shaped by the land and water itself. As unique drops on different journeys we are still all water on the same mountain. The environmental design of Feng Shui with your intentions creates a smoother mountain path, your vibrating energy picks up in quality speed, but you are not collecting debris on the way, you’re bright reflective, taking in the beauty and abundance of designed energy. 18. There is an electro magnetic field surrounding the earth, and all living creatures have a strong affinity for the magnetic aspects of the earth. Bacteria and algae follow it, sea turtles and birds use it as guidance. There is magnetite in the brains of dolphins, whales and sea turtles, honing pigeons and bees use it for guidance. We, everything, is made up of electrically charged atoms, and we and the earth are made up of 75% water, a conductor of this electro magnetic energy. So although we don’t always see it, there is a big dance of energy in and around us, including the planetary influences, the sun and moon, gravity, space and solar radiation. The bottom line in Feng Shui is about energy, balancing it, harnessing it and projecting it. 19. Since Einstein’s discovery of E = MC2 quantum physicist have been discovering amazing worlds of energy at the sub atomic level, and ultimately it is showing us that by our observation alone we have an effect on what we are observing. Energy is the equivalent to mass, energy that underlies all forms. All stuff can be looked at as essentially compressed energy. So we are made of this substance as well as a couch, a chair or a stone. A stone has micro organisms moving out of it as well. This is the same energy released from its relatively small amount of form in uranium – the atom bomb. 20. The research done with thoughts, words and prayers and how it changes the molecular structure of water is well documented. Remember we are made up mostly of water and so is the earth. Is it any wonder that thoughts and words make up many of the world’s creation myths including Genesis, or why Buddhism’s core teachings consist of right words, right thoughts, and right actions. This is why in the Feng Shui I teach and consult, your intentions play an integrated and vital role. 21. Feng Shui has a numerous documented history of over 2000 years. 22. Feng Shui is channeling energy through us.
23. Coca Cola, British Airways, Bank of England, Donald Trump, Chicago O’Hare Airport, Mercedes Benz, Swiss Stock Exchange in Zurich, Citi Bank, Charles Schwab, Merrill Lynch and CNN have used Feng Shui. 24. Your property counts in Feng Shui, and the surrounding land, streets, water, houses, buildings and businesses all have an influential energy in your life. 24. Energy slows as it works its way to the rear of the house. It’s better to have offices up front and bedrooms to the rear. The secretary sits up front to buffer the rushing energy coming in for the boss. 25. Energy likes round or curvaceous versus angular and sharp edges. Choose round, oval or rectangular, but with softened corners. 26. All seating faces doors whenever possible, at least have a peripheral vision of the door. 27. Broken things in your home are broken things in your Bagua.
28. It is good to know the history of your place and its previous owners – this can be indicative of the inherent energy you inherited, this energy can be transformed of course. It is also good to know the history and the maker of the objects/furniture we own and the food we eat. 29. The Corners of rooms is where energy stagnates, look at these areas and keep them vitalized. 30. No constricting areas to walk through. 36 inch width is a good general rule. 31. Enrich all your senses for Feng Shui elevation.
