Feng Shui

Feng shui is a Chinese system of geomancy which is executed by arranging one's living space in order to help one improve life by receiving positive Qi (life energy) flow through the space. According to Space Lift (space-lift.com), it is said to help increase your wealth, enhance your relationships, create more opportunities, remove blocks to love & happiness, decrease frustrations, improve your effectiveness, support your wellness, get ‘unstuck’, gain more control over your circumstances, and improve your reputation. The first step in executing feng shui is to consult the Bagua Energy Map and overlay it on the floor plan to your home:



The colours and elements related to each of these squares help make that energy flow better through the space, as these are the best suited locations for the related energy. By arranging your living space to suit the above map, Qi, or as we call it here at the temple, the Force, will be more balanced within the home, allowing for balance in the home dweller without undue clutter and distraction.

I hope you find this as fascinating as I did! It is always good to keep spirituality growing and finding new ways of looking at the world (or determining what doesn't work for you!) MTFBWY-A.
