Feng Shui Tips on Career:
It is inevitable that everyone has to earn his/her own living, unless
of course one has been left a fortune of millions or billions. Everyone
wishes for a good and stable career. However things can go very wrong
(as they do sometimes) when we least expect them to. Feng Shui has
some remedies for enhancing career luck and to keep it that way.
| 1) |
Find out your Kua number and your
4 best directions. Locate your 'Sheng Chi' direction and sleep
with your head pointed in this direction. |
| 2) |
If your career is going nowhere, changing
the position of your main door to face your personal 'Sheng
Chi' direction might be of help. Stand inside your house at
the door looking out to determine the directions. |
| 3) |
If you have your own office, place
your desk accordingly so that it faces your 'Sheng Chi' direction.
|
| 4) |
Do not sit with your back to a window
or a door. These features give you no 'support' for your back
and you might be backstabbed or double-crossed by colleagues.
Look out for any poison arrows directed at your back, caused
by open shelves or sharp edges. |
| 5) |
Find a painting of mountains (without
any water feature such as lakes or oceans) and place it behind
your working table. |
| 6) |
If possible keep some terrapins in
your office. Place potted plants to camouflage offending pillars
that send out poison arrows. However be sure to take good care
of the plants so that it does not wither and die. Crystals also
make good remedies for such problems. |
| 7) |
According to the 8 Life Aspirations,
North represents career. The element of North is water and the
color is blue. In the North section of your home or office,
place a metal wind chime. But remember not to place anything
that represents the Earth or Wood element in this section. |
| 8) |
Be aware of your bedroom. We spend
1/3 of our lives sleeping so it is important to note the features
in our bedroom. Watch out for features that cause dangerous
'shar qi' (killing breath) that may affect your well-being.

Feng Tips on Education:
Education is a lifelong pursuit. We never stop learning and growing
even when we leave our school days far behind. As Helen Keller said,
"Knowledge is love and light and vision." Feng Shui can
help transform average but hard working students into high achievers.
Full potentials can be met and hidden abilities discovered. Below
are some Feng Shui points designed to aid students (and working adults)
academically.
| 1) |
Find out your Kua number and your
4 best directions. For example, if you have the Kua number 3,
your 'Sheng Chi' direction is. Sleep with your head pointed
in your 'Sheng Chi' direction. |
| 2) |
Change your child's sleeping position
so that his/her head points to his 'Tien Yi' direction. Position
your child's table so that he faces his 'Tien Yi' direction
while studying. |
| 3) |
Beware of 'shar qi' (killing breath)
directed at you or your child in the bedroom. Poison arrows
triggered off by protruding corners and sharp edges cause 'Shar
qi'. This will cause illnesses and uneasiness and leads to distraction
in a whole. Soften the effect of poison arrows by placing soft
material and crystals. |
| 4) |
Do not let your child sleep or study
in a room located above a garage or below a toilet. This will
cause his mind to wander and distract his studies. |
| 5) |
According to the 8 Life Aspirations,
education and knowledge is located in the Northeast section.
The element of Northeast is Earth and the color is beige. In
this section of your house display some symbols representing
the Earth element, such as pottery, porcelain and clay items.
|
| 6) |
If the Northeast section is missing
from your home, you can apply the above step to your own or
your child's bedroom as well. Quartz crystals are strong attractors
of the Earth element, so place some on a decorative table in
the corner as well. |
| 7) |
Hard work and patience never hurt
anybody. Be diligent in your studies or work and you will achieve
something in no time at all. Top

Feng Tips on Love:
Love is an emotion all of us have experienced one time of the other.
Countless of songs, movies, poetry and art are dedicated to this powerful
emotion. Many heroes and kingdoms rose and fell in the name of love.
Here are some Feng Shui guides to activate your romance luck and to
enhance your relationship.
| 1) |
If you are single or looking to improve
your relationship, sleep with your head pointed in your Nien-Yin
(Relationships) direction according to your Kua number. |
| 2) |
Avoid sleeping facing the door as
the 'shar qi' (killing breath) will be very strong and will
cause problems in your relationship. |
| 3) |
Strengthen the Southwest section of
your home. According to the Feng Shui thought of Eight Life
Aspirations, the Southwest section governs romance and marriage
happiness. The element of Southwest is Earth. Activate that
section with a pleasant decoration of small rocks or anything
made from terra cotta or clay. Alternately, hang a picture of
a mountain minus any water feature. |
| 4) |
Watch out for any poison arrows brought
by the edges of pillars of furniture in your bedroom. These
poison arrows bring harmful 'shar qi' and will affect you, therefore
affecting your relationship as well. Cover the offending edges
with a soft cloth or a potted plant. |
| 5) |
If you are single and looking for
love - hang a painting of peonies, the Chinese flower of love
in your house or bedroom. Also, balance the Yin and Yang in
your house. If you are male, display items or photos that represent
the presence of females/Yin. If you are female, some images
or displays that shows male masculine will be beneficial.

Feng Tips on Wealth:
To be materially well-off is a much sought-after dream. Indeed, good
wealth luck is what motivated many people to search for means and
ways to increase their fortunes. There are ways in the art of Feng
Shui that helps you to attract good 'chi' to enhance your wealth luck.
Here's how.

wealth luck, sleep with your head pointed at your 'sheng chi'
direction. You can find out the direction using your Kua number.
Sleeping in this position ensures general good luck and well
being of the person. |
| 2) |
The kitchen stove, also known as the
'fire mouth' should be properly positioned as it is an important
factor in Feng Shui. |
| 3) |
The main door also plays a vital role
in Feng Shui. If wealth luck has been less than desirable lately,
check if there is any offending man-made structure that is sending
out harmful poison arrows towards your main door. |
| 4) |
According to the 8 Life Aspirations,
wealth and prosperity are governed by Southeast. The element
of Southeast is Wood and the color is green. Wood is produced
by Water and is destroyed by Metal. Avoid having any major Metal
or Fire element in this section of your home/office. |
| 5) |
If you are wondering why many offices
and homes have large aquariums with beautiful fishes, here's
the answer : Water. A little bit of water feature in the Southeast
section helps the growth of the natural Wood element. However,
do not overdo it. A nice aquarium or pond with some fish will
enhance the look and feel of your household. Balance is vital.
|
| 6) |
Colors are also beneficial in attracting
good 'chi'. In the Southeast section of your home/office, display
some items colored in green. You can also paint the wall in
green or hang some green colored curtains or drapes, as long
as it does not seem odd and out of place there.

politicians, socialites, and rich tycoons - they are always in the

edge of a large building, by all means move out of hang a Pa
Kua to soften the effect of the 'shar qi'. |

structure that is sending out harmful poison arrows towards
your main door. |

children and descendants are governed by West. The element of
West is Small Metal and the colors are Gold, Silver and White.
