Feng Shui (pron. Fung Shway) is the art of arranging your home
or workplace to enhance your health, wealth and happiness.
The underlying principle of Feng Shui is to live in harmony with your
environment so that the energy (chi - pron:
"chee") surrounding you - works for you, rather
than against you. It affects every aspect of life and the way
it is applied can be either beneficial or detrimental to the way you live.
Feng Shui is a 4,000-year-old
tradition. Westerners are only beginning to reap the benefits of this
ancient art and science.

SPACE CLEARING
What
is Space Clearing?
Space Clearing is a process that clears and balances the unseen energies of our
personal surroundings that influence the quality of our lives.
Everything
that happens in a building becomes imprinted in the walls, furniture and
objects. As well as our own imprints there are those from previous occupants.
These old residues of energy have an effect on us, possibly causing us to feel
or act differently, effecting our health or energy levels, or making us feel
stuck, unhappy or unsettled. They can make us feel like we are constantly
pushing against the flow and unable to resolve difficulties.
The
imprints accumulate on a daily basis in the same way that dust and cobwebs
accumulate physically. They make the atmosphere stale and dull.
Space
Clearing releases these imprinted layers of energy and infuses a new vibrancy
that supports the many dimensions of our lives. It allows our homes or
workplaces to support us in moving forwards with clarity and purpose in whatever
way is personally meaningful, sustaining our vitality, our general well-being,
and a sense of ease and fulfillment. It transforms the atmosphere of the space,
making it comfortable, welcoming and uplifting.
The
uplifting quality of Space Clearing also helps to provide an experience of
greater personal perspective and meaning – uplifting our spirit and supporting
our higher self.
Who can benefit from Space Clearing?
Anyone can benefit from having their home or workplace Space Cleared.
Space
Clearing is helpful if your life is not working well, if you feel stuck, unhappy
or unsettled, or if you have difficulties with your relationships, health, work
or finances. It is excellent if you are tired, depressed or stressed, or if you
just want some extra sparkle. It is great for giving yourself a boost and
getting your life on track.
It is also
ideal at times of transition to provide a firm foundation for positive change,
such as a new relationship, new job or new baby.
It
is essential for therapy rooms to support the client’s healing process and
prevent therapist’s burnout.
It is also
beneficial to Space Clear if you are selling your home, if you have just moved
into a new home, or if you have lived there for many years but never felt ‘at
home’.
It is
ideal for your workplace, to support a successful and happy work-life.
Space
Clearing within conference or concert venues helps to enhance the quality of
meetings, workshops, and performances.
Space
Clearing is suitable for any building space that has walls and a roof, however
large or small. It has no religious connection, and is suitable for people from
all cultures, any or no religious background, and all walks of life.
How can Space Clearing help with
Clutter Clearing?
Clutter can accumulate wherever energy stagnates. It blocks the natural flow of
movement within a space, creating obstructions for new opportunities and for
moving forwards with intention. Space Clearing helps to release this stagnant
energy which therefore allows the clutter to be resolved. The process also
provides insights into the personal issues that may be at the core of a clutter
problem.
Clearing
the stagnant energy of clutter with Space Clearing can transform the lives of
clutter-holics and the people they live with.
What happens at
a Space Clearing session?
An
ancient Indian smudging ceremony is performed.I use a Smudge stick, made from herbs, that emits smoke; once lit,
the smoke moves the energy out. Different herbs are dedicated to different
energy, so I choose what I need and use them together to clear the negative
energy and bring in the positive energy.
A clearing technique using Tingsha bells may also be used.
An ancient Inca Shaman
‘four winds’ ceremony is performed to energetically protect the space.
A refined and buoyant new energy is anchored into the space, which supports
personal energy, nurturing aspirations and creating the potential for healing
and personal insights to occur.
Afterwards
people report feeling inspired and empowered, describing it as a fascinating and
revitalizing experience that marked a significant turning point for them.
If
necessary a dowsing and geopathic stress assessment of electromagnetic fields is
made to ensure that you are sleeping in a place that supports healthy sleep.
A Feng
Shui consultation can also be arranged if desired.

Why should I know about Feng Shui?
If you want to realize your goals and find a perfect balance for yourself and
your family, you will need to understand and follow the principles of Feng
Shui. This can enhance your career, create and maintain good
relationships, resolve conflicts, overcome challenges and achieve peace and
harmony. Why wouldn't you want to try it? It is not based on any
religion or superstition. Today, Feng Shui is widely practiced by Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong,
Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia. Famous people
are coming to the fore praising it's benefits. Feng Shui is regarded as a vital part of
everyday life.
The Geomancer will use observation, repeatable calculations and
methodologies based on the study of environmental effects on people.
Feng Shui involves no guesswork.
Feng Shui is not a passing fad. It has been a means to build one's
prosperity and well-being for more than four millennia.
It's resurgence in popularity might be attributed to 'the times'- as people
are looking for some order in this fast-paced world, they go home to be
'grounded' again.
The science of Feng Shui remains squarely rooted in architecture, astronomy,
physics and design.
Feng Shui, a mystical belief or a natural science?
Feng Shui is a body of knowledge that has
developed and grown for thousands of years. Originally, it was the
exclusive knowledge of the Court Meteorologists of Imperial China, until, over
time, it was leaked to help the common people, and is now used by enlightened
people all over the world. Feng Shui is not based on any religion, mysticism or
superstition. It is a mathematical science. Feng Shui is based on
four aspects:
Building
Environment
People
Time
Feng Shui can be shown to be both a science and an
art. The 'science' is the detailed analysis of the four aspects using
mathematical calculations. The 'art' is the experience of how to best
implement the remedies. Today, unfortunately, there is much hearsay,
superstition and nonsense about Feng Shui, yet Feng Shui makes complete sense
and is based on logic and scientific principles.
The Pa Kua (or
Ba Gua)
One important Feng Shui formula concerns the eight main life
Aspirations, corresponding to the four cardinal Directions and the four
inter-cardinal Directions of the compass (Lo Pan). Each of these
Aspirations is symbolized in the octagonal shaped Pa Kua, one of the most basic
Feng Shui tools, which identifies where the particular Aspirational locations
lie in your home or workplace, allowing you to energize them as required.
This will stimulate positive chi flow and create good Feng Shui for you.
Schools of Feng Shui
Feng Shui has been around for thousands of
years. Since then, various trends of Feng Shui have developed.
Although the basic principles remain the same, each one has a slightly different
approach to the subject:
Form School
Focuses predominantly on the contours of
physical landscapes, their shape, size and watercourse, and the relationship
between the physical formations and a dwelling.
The four Directions of the compass are
symbolized by the four celestial animals; the Green Dragon (East), the Red
Phoenix (South), the
White Tiger (West) and the Black Turtle (North). More

Traditional Chinese Compass School
Originated in China over 3,000 years ago,
with the first textual reference mentioned in 256BCE (Before Christian
Era)
Based on a scientific, formulaic approach to
Feng Shui which is thousands of years old.
Career sector of the Eight Trigrams is always
oriented to the magnetic North. More
information...
[The above methods are practiced by The
Geomancer]
Black Hat Sect (BHS) Tantric
Buddhist
A more recent school of thought, which is widely
practiced in the U.S.A. Developed in 1986 by Thomas Lin Yun, it is a
hybrid of Tibetan Buddhism, Taoism and Feng Shui simplified for Western
tastes. It has a huge cult following.
With this school of Feng Shui, rather than using
the traditional magnetic compass (Lo Pan) to determine directions, each house or
room is judged from the position of it's door. BHS Feng Shui states that
the main door to each room faces the career sector. This may result in
adjacent rooms or houses having apparently contradictory directions.
Popularized in America since 1986
Based on a more spiritual approach to Feng
Shui
Refers to the Eight Trigrams as the 'Ba Gua'
Career sector of the Eight Trigrams is always
oriented to the main door.
How do I choose a practitioner
that's right for me?
Go with your instincts!
If, what the practitioner suggests, makes sense
to you, and you feel good about the changes he/she proposes, you've found a
match!
However, if placing a statue of Buddha near your
front door, putting red Avery labels on your walls, hanging red-tasseled bamboo
flutes over your doorways and placing a 'green cylindrical object on your roof,
to draw in nurturing wood energy' are a bit far from your own decorating
style - dismiss your practitioner. (Payment does not have to be
enclosed in red envelopes either!)
Besides, TRUE Feng Shui remedies utilize only the five elements -
Water, Earth, Fire,
Metal and Wood, and not such things as mirrors, flutes, incense or prayers!
The Tai Chi (Yin Yang)
Yin Yang
This is the famous Tai Chi symbol, representing many of the
basic ideas of Taoist philosophy. It is the Chinese perspective of balance
and continual change.
*This symbol holds the key to ascertain the qualifications of a
good practitioner!*
Yin and Yang are dependent opposites that must always be in
balance. The opposites flow in a natural cycle - always replacing the
other. Just as the seasons cycle and create a time of heat or cold, Yin
and Yang cycles through active and passive, dark and light, etc..
Yin and Yang can be further explained as a duality that cannot
exist without both parts. Within Yang, there is a small piece of
Yin. Within Yin, there is a small piece of Yang. Just as in winter,
a seed lays in wait to become life, so is Yang waiting within Yin for it's turn.
Much of Taoist philosophy is based on the idea that everything
goes in cycles - the years, the months, the seasons, even human life
itself. These cycles are represented by the circle of the Tai Chi, and the
flow of time is indicated by the way the Yin and the Yang areas increase and
decrease as they progress around the symbol.
Highest Yang
Increasing YangIncreasing
Yin
Highest Yin
The Seasons
The four seasons - Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter - are
linked to Yin and Yang.
Spring - the time of new growth, and increasing Yang
Summer - the time of greatest heat, and highest Yang
Autumn - as the year cools, increasing Yin
Winter - the coldest time, highest Yin
Summer
SpringAutumn
Winter
Based on the above representations of the Yin and Yang meanings
- there is only ONE correct orientation of the Tai Chi. The one where the
cool sinks and the heat rises. (The black at the base and the white at the
top). You should also notice that just as a clock spins clockwise, so
would the yin/yang - 'head' first!
Any other orientation may represent Yin and Yang, but does
not properly represent the philosophy behind the symbol. Without
understanding the conceptual view of Yin and Yang, one cannot properly utilize
the five elements.
Since the five elements are the basis of the energetic
representations and are (should be) the only remedies utilized in Feng
Shui, next time you see an incorrect version of the Tai Chi, question the
information you receive!
An informed consumer is a smart consumer!
PLEASE CLEAR THE CLUTTER!
Quote: "A cluttered room is a cluttered
mind"
De-Clutter Your Soul
In
the course of life we gather things together.These are the objects we need for our daily life, our comfort, our work
and to reinforce our connections with others.‘Things’ are a part of life and, supposedly, each has its purpose and
place.Life is fluid and ‘things’ come and go, but when they
come and DON’T go, problems arise, with rooms filling up and life losing its
focus.
There
is the clutter of the room and the clutter of the soul and they are
intrinsically linked.When you see
stagnant accumulations of junk appearing in a room, it can represent trapped
fear or pain in the person’s life.These
feelings tend to immobilize a person and make them resist change.
When
we resist change we enter the dreaded land of procrastination!Clutter is a way of dragging your heals to slow down the
arrival of the future.When you
clean out your closets and corners, you’re free to embrace new opportunities.But what if you’re not too hopeful about what’s ahead?Don’t worry, there’s a way to change that program!
There
are three steps to eliminating clutter.The
first one is simple and practical but the next two are interrelated and require
a bit more understanding of how the universe is woven together and how we wear
it.
The first step is to make sure that nothing is
blocking the entranceway, or stopping the door from opening as completely as it
was designed to do.Remove anything
hanging from the back of the door or jammed into the narrow space behind it.Imagine you are entering the room wearing a flowing, open weave robe.Are there any furniture corners near or pointing at you that could snag
that gauzy fabric?If there are,
they will snag your aura so rearrange them to allow a more emotionally
comfortable entrance.
Also,
avoid having any chair-backs facing the door since that is read by the person
entering as a hand being held up telling them to halt!A chair facing the door is read as the open and welcoming hand.(This is an important thing to know when setting up a sales office.)
It’s helpful to think of the chi energy flowing into the room as
a stream of water.If the flow is
reduced to a trickle by a cramped entranceway, you are very limited as to what
you can do with it.If the flow is
slow, some areas may dry out, starved of energy.In other areas, murky puddles may form, which causes anxiety.Is that really something you want happening in your living room?
The next key is something that many practitioners have spoken about –
creating a strong focus for the eye when you first enter the room.While this is an important factor in itself when your aim is reducing
clutter and procrastination, there is an additional refinement that needs to be
considered.Why is that eye focus
so important?When we walk through
a door, our aura is compressed.When
we step inside the room, the aura springs out and ‘reads’ the room.Whatever message it receives creates a unique reaction.
This reaction is an energetic pattern that the aura paints on the
entranceway. If there is no strong
focus for the eyes, they’ll stay in motion, scanning and searching for a
reference point.The fight or
flight reflex stays active and this highly charged anxiety-fraught signature is
transmitted.Everyone who follows
in this pathway will feel it and certain automatic reactions will take place.One of the reactions is to empty the hands.This is why piles of things tend to accumulate on the furniture nearest
to the door.Another reaction is to move quickly through the room to a
safer haven.This means you never
spend relaxed time in the room to infuse it with your nurturing energy.You don’t want to spend the time there to put it in order.
“Whether
we choose to hold onto things or share things is determined by the difference
between the left and right sides of the body”
People are very easy to program, entire cultures are programmed by the
advertising on their televisions.The
first thing you see when you enter a room programs you, so if there is no clear
focus, you feel unfocused.That’s
a euphemism for messy!When you
spend a lot of time in that space, your life is infused with that unfocused
energy.So place a strong focus for
your eyes for when you first walk into every room.But, while that will create more focus in your life, it will not
necessarily eliminate accumulation and procrastination.What will?That’s the
third step, placing that focus in the correct spot!
Here we get into sorting the strands that make up the fabric of our
universe.Our environments are
reflections of our physical and energetic body as we are creations of proportion
and dimension.There are two
especially important measurements at work here.One relates to whether we choose to hold onto things or share things, and
this is determined by the difference between the left and right sides of the
body.
The left side is where we hold onto things.It’s where our stomach gathers food; our spleen gathers energy and
where we feel the emotions that come from our hearts.When you hold a new baby, you place their head over your left
breast so that they feel the beating of your heart.If the focus for your eyes is to the left side of the room or
to the left of your body, the room tends to hold onto the past.This is why rooms with entrance doors on the left side tend to become
more cluttered and chaotic.
The right side of the body is where we find the liver and gallbladder.These are organs that transform and share the resources.It’s the social side of the body.It’s the right hand that we offer in greeting.It’s the future side of the body because the transformation of others
from strangers to friends is a movement into the future.If your environment is overstuffed and you feel stuck in the past, place
the focuses on the right side of the room and definitely to the right of your
body.Your eyes and ears project
energy.Where that energy goes is
significant.When you gather the
light energy that pours from your eyes and splash it in the direction that your
body reads as the future, walking that pathway becomes much easier.Locking onto things that hold you in the past becomes less
appealing.
The other important dimension is the height of the body.There is the head, the torso and the legs.The mind is concerned with the future, the heart and the stomach with the
present, and the knees and feet with what was accomplished in the past.The height at which you place that strong focus for your eyes determines
which part of your life you concentrate on.
“Placing
pictures and reflective surfaces at heart level helps keep love an active
element of your life”
This is why moving into a new home can be so disruptive; everything is on
the floor, or leaning against the wall.As
long as it stays there, you stay stuck, reliving your past choices.If you want to get on with life, put up your pictures first.That will increase the energetic flow on the higher levels; the present
and future.We’re great believers
in placing the focus at heart level.That
keeps you comfortably in the present and moving towards the future.In general, placing pictures and reflective surfaces at heart level helps
keep love an active element of your life.
Physiologically, if the focus is low, the head has to dip and the spine
has to bend to observe it.This
decreases the optimal flow of electrical energy up the spine.In businesses, it’s wise to place the focus at eye level to encourage
people to stand straighter, feel more poised and clearly pointed towards the
future.
Choose the images or objects for your focus well.What you read is what you’ll write!They are your instructions to the universe so don’t be timid, be
optimistic.Decide what part of
your life you want to focus on.You
have the choice of me or we, and the decision to live in the past, present or
future.Put the images where you
decide you need it, then, maybe nudge it just a little higher and to the right,
in case you’re underestimating what you deserve.Courage!The barricades of
the self melt away when the pathways to the future are assured.
