Feng Shui Basics
Applying feng shui basics in the home need
not be that complicated. There are some ways in which this ancient
practice can be used to make the home flow with positive energy or
chi. Here are some of the basic feng shui practices that you need to
know and can easily apply to make your home as well as your life
filled with positive chi.
Light, Air and Feng Shui
In order to fill your home with good chi, you may need to have good
quality air as well as lighting. In feng shui, it is believed that
chi flows through with the help of air as well as natural light.
Because of this, it is essential to make use of these two elements
to ensure that the home flows with good chi. To allow the good
energy into your home, you would need to open your windows often to
let natural air into the home.
You can also use air purifying plants or an air purifier at home to
make sure that the air remains clean and pure. Also try to allow as
much natural light into your home to allow good chi to fill your
home.
Unclutter Your Home
Clutter is a known obstacle to the flow of chi. It can have an
effect on health as well as the overall energy levels and quality of
life. Too much clutter can drain your energy as well as impede good
energy from flowing into your home or life. Getting rid of the
clutter can also help get rid of the negative load that affects your
life. By clearing clutter, you are creating a harmonious environment
in your home flowing with good energy.
Know Your Feng Shui Birth Element
In order to understand better how you can use feng shui to achieve a
certain balance in your life and home, you might need to know your
own birth element. There is a certain element that corresponds to
your birth year. Knowing what element your are born with can help
you decide on what is the best approach to achieve that certain
balance in feng shui. You can use your feng shui birth element to
introduce the different expressions of the element into your home
through the use of colors and the balance of the other complementary
elements in your life and home.
Know Your Kua Number
According to feng shui, each person has his or her own kua number
that corresponds to one's date of birth and gender. The kua number
also tells of each person's energy needs. In the school of feng shui
called the Flying Stars, people may belong in either one of two
energy groups- the East or the West. For the East Group, their kua
numbers may either be 1, 3, 4 or 9.
For those on the West group, their kua numbers can either be 2,6,7
or 8. you can use your kua number to determine directions and
orientation of structures such as your home or where you face when
working in order to ensure good positive energy to flow through.
These feng shui basics can help you start off in making your life
and home flow with good chi.
