Welcome new energy, opportunities and positive flow with Feng Shui in 2024. One of the most significant things to do to start fresh in Feng Shui is to clean, organize, fix and declutter your space, home or business thoroughly. Doing so will eliminate stagnant energy and invisible obstacles, mentally and otherwise. This fresh start leaves room for new energies and opportunities to come into your space and your life. Positive Feng Shui in any space has a harmonious flow of chi or life force energy. It’s invisible, but it can be felt. It creates harmony, well-being and prosperity and success for its occupants. The five Feng Shui elements in creative order are Water, Wood, Fire, Earth and Metal. These elements are associated with life aspects such as career and opportunities, knowledge and self-cultivation, family, wealth, fame and reputation, relationships, creativity and children, benefactors and traveling, and health. Obstacles in any area of life aspects can indicate that there is an imbalance or blockage in energy flow. This flow can be adjusted by appropriate use of elemental remedies. You can remove or add such elements to balance the situation — for instance, change what’s on display on a table or move […] Read more!
This spring, as the Yin season shifts to Yang season in the Solar calendar on February 4, 2023, favorable changes are to be expected on many different levels. In Feng Shui, there are nine twenty-year time cycles. A predominant energy affects each of those periods. We are nearing the end of cycle eight, which has been strong with male earth influences, and approaching the new cycle of period nine, which starts next year with many different influences, including feminine fire energies. It’s time to let go of the old and welcome new energies and opportunities into your spaces to enhance your environment and life. One of the most effective ways to clear out stagnant energies is cleaning, eliminating clutter, organizing, fixing any broken items or discarding them, and recycling and donating what no longer serves you or feels right. Find a home and meaning for the items you’re keeping and feel your space expanding and changing. Beneficial Feng Shui has a smooth flow of life force energy or Chi in any space, inside or out. For people it creates a feeling of balance, well being and harmony. Prosperity and unexpected opportunities start to show up in good energy flow. The […] Read more!

As so many of us work at home right now because of the unfortunate circumstances, a dedicated home working space is important. It can be a specific home office room, combination of guest room and home office, or a dedicated space in another room. Either way, now is the time to give some thought to how to make that space support the person who works there. There are many aspects to consider when taking the steps to start making the best use of the space. Some steps are common sense, yet also associated with Feng Shui disciplines. As we have heard so many times, literally clean the space and clear the clutter. Eliminate items that are no longer needed, are broken and cannot be fixed, or are no longer purposeful or bring joy in your life.

Clearing the space will make room and welcome new ideas and opportunities. If the work space is a separate room, try closing the door to cut down on distractions from the rest of the […] Read more!
