General Feng Shui
Tips
Keep your home and/or office neat and clean, remove any
unused items and anything that is cluttering up your
living or working space such as stacks of newspapers,
magazines, folders and paperwork.
Chi needs to flow naturally
through your home or office, and cluttered spaces won't
allow a natural flow of Chi. This is not to say you
should clear out everything and create large empty
spaces, that would cause Chi to
flow too fast through these spaces.
Feng Shui is about
balance, not extremes, so use your better judgment to
make your home and office spaces more functional and
pleasant. If you do this you will feel better, work
better, live better and be well on your way to a happier
and more successful life.
Feng Shui in the Bedroom
The bedroom is one of the most important rooms in
your home and the Master Bedroom is considered the most
important room. A bedrooms energy should be more Yin
than Yang as Yang energy in the bedroom will keep you
awake and/or cause restlessness. For general tips read
below and for detailed tips please visit the
Feng Shui Bedroom
Tips page.
Bright colors and
lights, electronic equipment and televisions are
considered bad Feng Shui in the bedroom. Your bed should
never be on the same wall as the door and the headboard
should be placed firmly against the wall, but not
under a window, beam or ceiling fan.
You should be able
to see the door from your bed, having your back to the
door is not only bad Feng Shui, but if you think about
it for a minute, it just isn't a good idea.
DO NOT DO
These Things in Bedrooms:
- Don't use extremely bright colors.
- Don't use water fountains, pictures of water or
water symbols.
- Don't have pictures or symbols of fierce animals
(lions, tigers, bears, etc.).
Feng Shui in The Living Room
The living room is another very important room, and
there are several reasons for this. One reason is the
fact that it is generally the room that contains the
front door to your home, thus Chi enters your home
through this door.
How the Chi is directed and focused
here can play a huge role in determining the Feng Shui
balance in your home. Therefore the living room should
be fairly open and not cluttered, kept clean at all
times and be a warm and inviting place, which allow
positive energy to flow through to the rest of your
home.
We recommend the following Feng Shui items be used
in the living room:
- Outside the front door have a pair of Foo Dogs
guarding your home.
- Have a dragon looking at the front door, the
dragon is great protection.
- Inside the front door have a three-legged toad
hopping into your home, this will encourage money luck
to enter into your home.
Feng Shui in The Kitchen
One of the most important things to remember about
your kitchen also applied to your entire home, keep it
CLEAN and neat. In Feng Shui the stove is considered to
be one of the most important factors influencing your
wealth. The stove should be in good working condition,
burners that are not working, or working poorly are very
bad Feng Shui and will directly impact your finances.
You should also be sure to KEEP YOUR STOVE CLEAN AT ALL
TIMES. I cannot stress this enough, a dirty stove can
cause financial ruin, so you should pay extra attention
to your stove. Make sure it stays clean and in good
working order at all times.
Want to improve your wealth?
- Hang a mirror on the wall behind your stove so you
can see twice as many burners, this doubling of
burners on your stove will double your money luck.

Feng Shui in The Bathroom
Make sure your bathroom is extra clean and a pleasant
place to be. Keep the drains closed or covered when they
are not in use, your finances and luck will flow down
drains that are left uncovered, so be sure to keep them
closed. Bathrooms are known to cause negative energy in
a home, while this energy cannot be totally eliminated,
the effect can be muted by making your bathroom as
clean and pleasant as possible.
Avoid placing objects in
the bathroom to counter the effects of negative Chi,
this will usually have the opposite effect making the
problem even worse. Only use cures that are approved by
a reputable Feng Shui consultant.
Feng Shui Cures
Feng Shui cures are a difficult subject, and their
use should be kept to a minimum unless you understand
what you are doing, and what you are trying to
accomplish. Attempting Feng Shui cures without a clear
understanding of what you are doing could make the
problem worse, and if the situation is already bad it
could go from just bad to disastrous.
We recommend
trying small things to start until you know what you are
trying to accomplish and have read up on the cure you
are attempting to use. There are no quick cures in Feng
Shui or life, so take your time and try to do it right the
first time.
Now that you have been duly warned, here are a few
things you can do without fear of causing more problems
or aggravating existing problems, these are common cures
that will help improve the Feng Shui of any home or
office.
- I-Ching Coins tied with a red ribbon (to activate
their Chi) on the Door Knob or Cashbox/Cash Register.
- Water is good in the wealth areas of a home, but
never in the bedroom. Add fountains to increase the
flow of Yang energy or a fish tank for a double bonus
of Feng Shui, water plus a living animal is excellent
Feng Shui.
- Plants are signs of life, but they must be kept
healthy, dead or dying plants or even dead leaves are
bad Feng Shui, as they represent death and decay.
- The dragon is VERY auspicious in Feng
Shui and also in China where Feng Shui originated. The
dragon is a protector, bringer of good fortune and too
much more to list here. A dragon looking at your front
door will protect your home, but dragons are
VERY Yang and should not be in the bedroom,
which should lean towards Yin.
- Mirrors are good in most rooms, but once again
avoid their use in the bedroom (invites third parties
into the relationship) and also they should not face
the front door as this causes Chi to bounce back and
out the door. They are good for use in long corridors,
kitchens with stoves facing the wall and living rooms
if you cannot see the front door in the mirror when seated.
