2.Consulting too many feng shui experts. Although feng shui principles are very much universal, when you consult a variety of experts, you’re bound to get a variety of solutions; just like how different doctors can prescribe different sets of advice. The key is to educate yourself with the basics, and make the decisions based on your own judgment. Very often it is better and more effective to keep things simple.

 

3. Not using a proper compass. Very often, beginners start the practice of feng shui without even using a compass. A rough estimation of the directions using the direction of the sun can be misleading. Buy a good compass, and determine the directions of your house by using the plan or blueprint of your house. It can be quite dangerous to activate the wrong sectors of a room!

Feng shui solutions may work for one house but not for another. The key is to practice feng shui within the realms of practicality. It is not advisable to be too dogmatic in the practice of feng shui.

Our home is much more than just a habitat where we live and sleep. It is a sanctuary and refuge after a long days work and also a place to rest and rejuvenate. Good feng shui in the home attracts good health prosperity, and happiness. Here are 6 easy tips to create good feng shui at home.



The main door is the most important parts of the home. It is where the outer environment connects with your house. Empower the main door by displaying images of auspicious creatures at its vicinity. It could be a painting of a thousand birds, or a picture of dragons, phoenix, or any other celestial animals.

Bright lights are great for creating Yang energy. Although it is a waste of energy to keep the whole house lighted at all times, there should never be overly dark areas in your home. Houses with a bright ambience enjoy better feng shui than dark and gloomy ones.

Pets such as cats and dogs are excellent for stimulating a healthy energy flow in your home. When you are off to work, or away on vacation, your pets keep your home’s energy from becoming stale.

Your kitchen should be located deep within your home and should not be visible from the main door. Never place the kitchen in the Northwest and Southwest corner of the home.

A large mirror in the dining room is extremely good feng shui. A mirror that is large enough to reflect the whole family as well as the food on the table attracts good fortune.

Hallways, foyers and walkways should always be free of clutter. Clutter not only inhibits the flow of energy, but also causes the accumulation of stale Chi. Having lots of clutter in walkways and foyers suggest the presence of lots of obstacles in your path.



These are just a few examples in the practice of good feng shui. Give these tips a try and watch how good feng shui can revitalize your home!

Feng Shui can be used to attract fame and recognition in your life. Fame and recognition is not just for celebrities and people in the entertainment industry. Most of us need a certain level of fame and recognition to achieve success in our lives. If you work in an office, you would need some recognition and acknowledgement from your bosses to be promoted. If you were a writer you will need a certain amount of fame and recognition for your work to be sold. As we can see, we can all benefit from having some fame and recognition in our lives. Here are some fabulous feng shui tips on how to attract more fame and recognition into our lives.

The South represents fame and recognition. To attract more fame, what you will need to do is to activate the southern direction of your room, home, and your office. In feng shui, the South is dominated by the Fire element. Activate the fire element by having lots of lights in the south sector of a space. Having a fireplace or a bright lamp in the south is extremely auspicious.

For those who are aware of the cycles of the five elements in feng shui, you would know that the element of wood produces fire. Having lots of wood elements in the south will strengthen the fire element that will in turn bring you more fame and recognition.

The auspicious colors to create good feng shui in the south are all shades of red and green. One must be careful not to use the color black, blue or anything that represents the water element in the south. This is because the element of water clashes with fire. Having too much of the water element in the south is extremely bad feng shui.

The choice of decorations for your bedroom is also very important to create good feng shui for your health. As a rule of thumb never use antique furniture in your bedroom. Antique furniture has in it the accumulation of stagnant chi from its previous owners, which can attract illnesses. Having guns and sharp objects as decorations in the bedroom is also bad feng shui; as such objects emit shar-chi (killing energy) that can be very harmful for the room’s occupants.

There are some wonderful Chinese symbols that you can use to attract health and longevity. In feng shui, the crane (specifically the red-crowned crane) is considered to be an auspicious bird as it represents peace and immortality. Placing a pair of crane figurines in the garden is extremely good feng shui for the family’s health.
