Did you Feng Shui your home?

Just as Vastu Shastra, a traditional system based on science and position is normally followed in India while buying, designing, constructing or renovating a house, office or any other structure; similarly Feng Shui is followed in China for a happy and a prosperous home. Basically both techniques suggest and guide people in the correct location, position, design and angles of the structure and rooms, etc thereby attracting positive energy and vibrations into the building that benefits both the structure and attracts happiness and prosperity to the residents.

In ancient times, these systems and its techniques were followed - Vastu Shastra in India and Feng Shui in China, in the designing, shaping and construction of the houses, palaces, forts, temples and other structures. The old masters of these techniques were revered. Even today some designers and architects try to design structures following these principles. And they are convinced of the positive energy.

The five elements of Feng Shui are wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Their correct presence and placement in our space stimulates Chi and promotes our wellbeing. The optimal placement of the five elements is determined by the energy map of our space, called bagua in Feng Shui.

Feng shui, also known as Chinese geomancy, is a pseudoscientific traditional practice originating from ancient China, which claims to use energy forces to harmonize individuals with their surrounding environment. The term Feng Shui literally translates as ‘wind-water’ in English.

It's the art of arranging buildings, objects, space and life to achieve harmony and balance. Feng shui works on the assumption that the world is driven by unseen forces. The idea behind it is to unblock the way, so the forces may flow freely and create balance in a space or life.

Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese philosophical technique that involves occupying space consciously and harmoniously, which aims to achieve a positive influence on the people who live in the home.

There is much that has been written about and said about this system and its benefits, but we aren't often sure how to put this into practice. Here are the seven tips that help to explain how to attract money, wealth, and prosperity into your home.

There is no need to go out and buy a whole lot of foreign elements or even seek help from professionals like Interior Architects. All you need is good distribution of furniture by following these tips given below. Let's do it!

Remove anything unnecessary or broken: In order to achieve a positive vibes throughout your home and surroundings, you must get rid of items that are not useful. You can either sell them or give them away or even throw them away if not worth. This will completely renew the energy in your home and bring about a change for the good.

Use colors like red, green and violet to attract prosperity: These colours can be used on the wall or in the form of the furniture, decor or cushions. Intersperse these colours with white, which represents purity. Red activates energies, so these two colours make for an excellent combination to attract prosperity.

If your entrance to your home or office isn't attractive, no one will feel to visit, including prosperity.You should always make sure that the entrance to your home or office is appealing, harmonious and clean, giving a feel of welcome. A manicured garden, soft lights and a neat entrance front door will attract prosperity and positive energies.

Make sure your kitchen is always clean: Central to attracting money and prosperity into your home is to always ensure that you have a clean kitchen. Make sure that the platform or kitchen table top are always spotless, and that the front door of the house is not visible from this space. Don’t congest your kitchen area. Minimalist and utility is always the best design for a kitchen.

Remove any traces of clutter in your home: If you want good and positive energy to flood into your home, you should ensure that it is always neatly organized with furniture and fixtures properly kept and fixed, with no traces of disorder. Place plants and fountains to allow energy and prosperity to flow.

A warm bedroom: The bedroom should feature warm colours and should be lit with soft lights. And avoid placing a mirror on a wall that faces the bed. Your bedroom is a temple of rest and relaxation so you may feature photographs, ornaments and soft colours that harmonize this space for you.

Don't flush it away: Avoid featuring water cans in the bathroom or anywhere else in the house and make sure that you leave the toilet lid closed at all times. You don't want money to go down the open toilet. When you have water leaks, burnt bulbs or loose cables, you are allowing money to escape. Fix them immediately to avoid this.

Locate your Kubera Moola: Kubera Moola means ‘The corner of wealth’, and it’s another important Feng Shui way to help attract money into your life. The direction of Kubera in one’s house is always on the south-west side.

But for this to succeed, ensure there is no underground water body in the south-west corner of your house/property (such as a swimming pool or a pond). However, anything with above-ground water features (like a bathroom with a shower and/or beautiful bath tub) shouldn’t present any issues.

To help attract good fortune, your property’s south-west corner can feature a bedroom, store room, or even a home office to get those positive vibes flowing.

Which way should your crystal tortoise face?: Tortoises and turtles have great importance in the Feng Shui / Vastu world. It is believed these slow and steady animals are idols of good fortune, which is why decorative turtles are usually seen in homes dedicated to good fortune and prosperity.

Whether you opt for a crystal tortoise, one crafted out of wood or another completely different design, place it in your home’s south-west corner to face east. Better if the crystal tortoise is placed in the living room or in some water (just deep enough to immerse its little feet). Add some coloured stones to your crystal tortoise and await peace, harmony, and money knocking on your door.

Finally bring in vibrant life forces such as plants and flowers, and don't forget to have fresh air circulating. Fountains are important wealth adjustments in Feng Shui because they stimulate prosperity and energy, and symbolize money. Have a pleasant and inviting main door. In order to attract energy into your home, you need a welcoming front door.

Also spend quality time in your bedroom. Do your reading, writing and listening to music (and other hobbies) in your bedroom. Actions that give you happiness will increase the positive aura in your bedroom, and make it a calm and happy place to relax. Keep doors and windows open for at least 15-20 minutes daily.

According to various consultants, some can start to experience results in as little as three months. Others, it might take a while longer. According to Feng Shui Master Laurent Langlais, a Feng Shui reading that's integrated with your Bazi can bring faster and longer-lasting results.

Unfortunately, environmental psychologists who have studied Feng Shui have concluded that there is no evidence that following Feng Shui principles have any measurable effect on human beings. The main problem is that there is no reason to believe that “chi” even exists, and without Chi there can be no Feng Shui. These are opinions. But these techniques are practiced from ancient times and people believe in it that it helps in attracting positive energy and vibrations thereby leading to a happy, peaceful and prosperous life. Be in Vastu Shastra or Feng Shui, it does no harm and has been practiced for centuries.
