According to the teachings of Feng Shui, we can change the space in which we live in order to become happier, stronger, luckier, more successful and richer. However, understanding all the laws of Feng Shui, of which there are many, is a painstaking and troublesome task. Feng Shui masters study and practice for a long time in order to master all the subtleties of this ancient philosophical art.

What should we, mere mortals, do? Well, for starters, the most good advice which we will give you - order a Feng Shui consultation from a real Feng Shui specialist. This will save your time as much as possible. And the result - if the specialist is real - will be appropriate. However, if you have not yet matured to the professional intervention of a Feng Shui specialist in your life, then you can use several simple techniques yourself.

How to find the desired impact zone in the house?

So, step one. We find our main tool on the Internet - the Bagua map. Print and cut out with scissors. We put it in the middle of the house. Everything is almost ready, except for one thing: it is not clear how to orient the map. The north zone should face north.

Therefore, step two. We take the compass in our hands. A simple compass or a Feng Shui compass is not so important. Do you know which part of the arrow points north? That's right, usually the one that is somehow marked or colored in a special way. Did you find the north? Rotate the Bagua Kata so that the northern zone coincides with the one the compass points to. Ready!

On the sides of the Bagua map you can see where each zone is located in your home. The map says what each zone is responsible for.

Step three - determine what you want in life. Love? Wealth? Promotions by career ladder? Children's welfare? Spiritual growth? Have you decided? Now let's activate the zone.

How to activate the selected zone?

The number one most important rule for success in Feng Shui is: Before activating any area, please “turn on” the correct energy throughout the house using the laws of Feng Shui. You can read how to do this here.

I want love.

Zone: South-West. Feng Shui of love is activated primarily by paired objects and talismans. One of the most famous in Chinese philosophy– Mandarin ducks, a symbol of fidelity. Also, since we live in modern world, we can place in the love zone any symbols that carry the meaning of love for us - photographs and paintings of couples in love, hearts, valentines. Chinese texts recommend the image of peonies. The element of the southwest is the Big Earth. Fire warms the earth. Fire symbols and colors that should activate the zone: red and orange, candles. It is appropriate to place candles in pairs. The area should be well lit. Do not place symbols of the element of wood, for example, flowers in pots, in the love zone.

I want wealth.

Zone - South-East. Element - Small tree. The tree is nourished by water, so we place a fountain or an aquarium in this area. Place 8 goldfish and one black fish in the aquarium. Install a money tree - live (the name of the plant is Crassula arborescens) or artificial, with leaves made of stone or Feng Shui talisman coins. In the zone you can place symbols such as a ship, Hotei, Feng Shui coins, a money three-legged toad with a coin in its mouth (the coin must be held freely!). Do not place earth symbols in the wealth zone.

I want to move up the career ladder.

Zone – North. Element – ​​Water. According to Feng Shui philosophy, water is stimulated by metal. Therefore, we activate the career zone with objects related to this element: metal objects, gold and silver color. In the modern world, any symbols of prosperity can be placed in the Feng Shui zone: for example, an image of an expensive mobile phone, cufflinks – everything that means to you “ successful career" Also, a metal turtle and even a metal car are recommended. Do not place fire symbols in the quarry area.

I want the well-being of children.

Zone - West. Element - Small metal. Metal is activated by the symbols of the Earth element and is contraindicated by the symbols of the Fire element. Therefore, it is appropriate to place plants in pots and natural stones in this area. Also in this area place children’s drawings, crafts, and toys. Do not place antique or used items in this area. The western zone in the house is ideal for placing a children's room.

I want spiritual growth.

You already have love, wealth and children. What more could you want? Of course, spiritual growth and personal development. Yes, even if there is nothing of this yet, all the same, according to the philosophy of Feng Shui, like any other philosophy, spiritual growth is the main thing in life. As they say, everything else will follow. The zone you need is East. Her element is A big tree. Wood is activated by water and suppresses metal. Therefore, place water symbols in this zone and refrain from anything gold, silver or metal.

There are 10 main Feng Shui prohibitions that help get rid of negative energy and fill your home with good luck!

PROHIBITION No. 1. Mirror arrangement

According to Feng Shui, it is forbidden to hang a mirror opposite the door, so that it cannot throw back the energy flowing into the room.
You should not place a mirror in the marital bedroom, so as not to provoke the appearance of a rival.

In other rooms of the house, mirrors are acceptable and can even be useful. At the same time, it is very desirable that a person’s figure is reflected in a full-length mirror and is whole, and not assembled from fragments.
Cracked, chipped or broken mirror must be thrown away immediately.

PROHIBITION No. 2.Garbage

You cannot place a trash can opposite the door. Dust, dirt, unused old things greatly disrupt the energy of any home. They store stagnant, dead energy that harms your business, relationships with people and health.

In addition, by keeping old things, you are programming your life for the onset of a “dark streak” in it, and then you will finally need all this rubbish.
You need to make room for comfortable, beautiful and new things, then you won’t have to wait long for their appearance.

PROHIBITION No. 3. Faulty, broken things

Things that you intend to use need to be repaired and put in order. Imagine that your home is a living organism. Will this body function normally if some of its organs are damaged or diseased?

It is necessary to repair all things that can be repaired, and those that cannot be repaired should be thrown away without regret.

This also applies to dishes, because cracked dishes serve as a place for the accumulation of negative Sha-Qi energy and if it is constantly used, this energy can be transferred to people. The accumulated energy in a person will lead to frequent quarrels and turn luck away from the person. It is also necessary to throw away broken things because, having broken, this thing thereby removes some problem from a person’s life.

Particular attention should be paid to communications. Leaking taps and pipes are a direct path to poverty, and not only because of high water bills. Together with leaking and dripping water, your house loses the energy of wealth, so repairs will cost you less.

PROHIBITION No. 4. Floors of different levels

Floors in your home or in a separate room of it at different levels there shouldn't be. Multi-level floors are a very unfavorable moment. By energetically breaking up your space, you “split” your destiny into pieces.

By raising any zone higher than others, you make it dominant and draw energy from other zones, thereby drawing energy from those aspects of life for which these zones are responsible.

PROHIBITION No. 5.Sharp corners

You may be familiar with the concept of “poison arrows.” These arrows cause a distortion of the flow of qi energy and have an adverse effect on the person who is in their path. Protruding corners that shoot “poisonous arrows” need to be masked or “rounded.”

If this is not possible, rearrange the furniture so that the corners are no longer directed towards the places where you usually stand, lie or sit.

You need to pay attention to hanging shelves. They not only have angles, but also hang over you, which depresses your energy.

If you don’t want to be grounded from the shelves, you can “ground” them by hanging, for example, a curtain made of beads or bamboo from the bottom edge of the shelf that reaches the floor.

PROHIBITION No. 6.Toilet and bathroom

Unfortunately, the bagua map does not contain zones in which the location of a bathroom would be appropriate. But it’s not worth taking services outside because of this.

It is enough to keep the doors to the toilet and bathroom closed, maintain cleanliness in these rooms and eliminate any malfunctions in a timely manner.

If you have a pet in your home who has a toilet next to yours, build a pet-friendly door into the bathroom door.

PROHIBITION No. 7.Closed windows

Living in a stuffy room is bad not only because of bad air. The Qi energy in the house should not accumulate, so as not to acquire a Yin character, but, passing through, wash it away.

Try to keep the windows open at all times or ventilate the apartment as often as possible. It is better if the windows are open in all rooms at the same time.

If you are afraid of drafts, you can ventilate the house in your absence.

PROHIBITION No. 8. Poorly located workplace

When working anywhere - in production or in the office, the quality of the work you perform and your life in general will be influenced by the fact how your workplace. If you spend a lot of time at work, make this place as comfortable as possible, both physically and energetically.

It is better to sit with your back to the wall, and this wall should not have windows and be solid.

You can, as a last resort, put a screen behind your back that will symbolically protect your rear.

If possible, try to turn the table in a direction that is favorable for you, but do not place it opposite the door leading into the room.

Also, you should not combine the living room and kitchen. Since, according to the canons of Feng Shui, the living room is a battery in which all a person’s luck and especially the luck of the head of the family accumulates.

If you attach the kitchen to the living room, this will lead to the fact that luck may completely leave this house and it will be extremely difficult to return it. Combining these two rooms leads to disruption of the accumulation of Qi energy.

PROHIBITION No. 9. Obstructed entrance

Trees growing in front of the house and blocking the approach of cars to it prevent the flow of Qi from penetrating into the home. This also applies to the accumulation of front door in the hallway of various things.

Try to clear the entrance both inside and out. Exceptions can be made only for green spaces separating the house from the road if the building is facing the roadway.

In this case, you should choose the least evil - bushes and trees will protect your home from the negativity emanating from the road.

Things such as clocks or wind chimes should not be placed above the door. They cannot be placed near the door, let alone placing such things on the door itself. This can cause many failures.

PROHIBITION No. 10. Dangerous neighborhood

The location of the building also plays an important role. Before purchasing a house, take a closer look at what will be located near it, as well as within line of sight.
A cemetery, hospital or prison is a very unfavorable neighborhood.
A well-groomed square or bank is quite successful.

Feng Shui at home for beginners

Feng Shui is not a religion. Feng Shui is the centuries-old science of harmony in the home.

Harmony in our home helps in life and attracts good luck.

Internal positive MOOD and TALISMANS - helpers- activation of certain zones (sectors) in our home - which are responsible for one or another area of ​​our life (health, career, love, wealth, etc.) and attract good luck in this direction.

So, let’s tune in to the positive and decide what we need for happiness, harmony and well-being.

To begin with, it makes sense to activate precisely those sectors that are responsible for what is of primary and most important importance to us today. And gradually you can activate less important ones this moment sectors.

The main thing is don’t fuss and don’t rush things!

We decided, activated the sectors and forgot about it. Live relaxed and calm!

All zones responsible for well-being in Feng Shui are distributed according to the cardinal directions.

To determine the cardinal directions in our home, it is necessary, of course, to acquire a compass.

Stand, if possible, in the center of the apartment and put the compass on your hand, determine the cardinal directions.

Some Feng Shui experts advise standing with your back to the front door to do this.

But from experience, it is more convenient to take measurements, after all, being in the center of the apartment.

The red arrow always points to the North!

Sometimes, when you are in an apartment or house, errors may occur in determining the cardinal directions (more often this happens in panel houses due to reinforced concrete structures).

Take a test measurement while outside.

Those. a small circle in the center is the Central sector, a large circle covers the entire apartment and it, without capturing the central sector, is divided into 9 sectors of equal size. Each of which is responsible for a certain area of ​​our life.

We have determined the cardinal directions, in which sector they fall, enter them there for accuracy.

It is in these parts of the apartment (house) that we will activate the sectors of luck that are necessary for us.

For a more detailed description of how to do this, see below.

FENG SHUI SECTORS

The CENTER of an apartment (house) is always responsible for HEALTH and WELL-BEING

NORTH - CAREER and LIFE PATH

SOUTH - FAME and REPUTATION

WEST - CHILDREN and CREATIVITY

EAST - FAMILY and SUPPORT

NORTHWEST - ASSISTANTS and TRAVEL

NORTHEAST - WISDOM and KNOWLEDGE

SOUTHWEST - LOVE, MARRIAGE and RELATIONSHIPS

SOUTHEAST - WEALTH

Determine the most important directions for you and your loved ones living in this house and activate them using Feng Shui methods.

I will immediately note, regardless of your interests and desires, zones HEALTH(center) and ASSISTANTS(northwest) are perhaps universally important for any person.

Because Without health, neither love, nor money, nor a career will bring joy and happiness to anyone.

And the active zone of assistants is capable of moving any stagnation in the area of ​​interest to us. The phrase “I achieved everything myself” is very relative and erroneous.

People help us, chance, higher powers, providence, God help us - whatever you want to call it, but something independent of us can always give or take away. Chance is a myth, there are no accidents, everything that happens is subject to some laws.

To make it easier to get everything you need, be sure to activate the assistant zone.

This is especially important if you have any crisis situation in your life.

You may not believe it at first, just do what Feng Shui advises - the results will not keep you waiting.

Another piece of advice that is universal for everyone without exception is that before activating one direction or another, dismantle the existing rubble in any house, especially if they are located in the area of ​​interest to you.

Rubble and dust- this is stagnant negative energy.

Clearing debris and cleaning sets energy forces in motion.

Go through things - things that have not been used or worn for a long time, throw them away, or better yet, give them to those in need or give them as a gift to someone. Good Feng Shui - things should serve, not lie. If a thing served you once, but is still quite suitable, let it serve other people.

By giving something away, you make room for new and more.

The same applies to money - if you don’t give, you won’t receive.

Feng Shui recommends spending the money you have with joy and never regretting your expenses. Be generous (as much as your financial capabilities allow) - give gifts, leave tips, donate to charity.

It is conventionally believed that it is necessary to give at least 10% of what we earn for these purposes, then much more will be returned to us. It's like payment to higher powers for what they received.

Just give for a good cause. Giving a drug addict his fix or simply throwing money or good things in the trash does not count.

Quite a lot of other things important ours plays in Feng Shui inner mood for better and more.

With the psychology of “I have enough, I am enough,” don’t count on development and growth.

After all, if you have enough and practically don’t need anything else, why give it to you. In this case, this “something” is health, money, family happiness, a large apartment, travel, etc. - they will give it to someone who doesn’t have enough, who wants this “something” more. If you need a little, then you will get a little.

Always strive for more and better, just demand more and more from life.

Tell the higher powers THANK YOU for what you have and for what they have given you or allowed you to earn, and “demand” even more.

Therefore, all affirmations for attracting positive energy in Feng Shui (affirmations are an internal mood for the best, a kind of auto-training), they are written and pronounced as some kind of beneficial fact that has already been accomplished (although you are still striving for this).

If we lack health, we say “I am a healthy person, but I want and will be the healthiest,” if we want to be richer, we say to ourselves and others, “I am a rich person, but I want and will be very rich,” etc.
The main thing is I WANT and I WILL!

FLOWERS. FOUNTAINS. PAINTINGS. WATER. LIGHT.

Flowers . Flowers should grow upward; Feng Shui does not welcome downward hanging plants and vines crawling along the walls. Our life and our well-being should strive upward, and not follow a sluggish existence.

There should be no limp, unhealthy flowers in the house, and especially no dried flowers (dead flowers do not really contribute to the life and development that we strive for).

It is better to have artificial flowers or pictures of flowers.

Use plants that are popularly carriers of any positive meanings.

Feng Shui is not welcoming cacti in the house. It is believed that they cut off energy with their needles. Place cacti only in the place you want to isolate yourself from - maybe a negative environment outside the window, a toilet or garbage disposal in an important sector, etc.

Then the cactus can do a good job and cut off the supply negative energy or loss of the positive.

Paintings, Figurines. These principles of “up and on,” “life not death,” “joy not sadness” apply to all images or symbols in our home.

Figurines or paintings of an elephant or horse, for example, should have their head and body raised, not lowered.

Images or symbols of people laughing and happy, not the other way around.

Water. The same applies to water in the house. Water is a symbol of life and an energetically very strong element.

Therefore, elements with water in the house are very important.

The water should be clean, fresh and should also tend upward.

Therefore, a waterfall with water flowing down or its image is not very good Feng Shui, and neither is an aquarium or flowerpot with stale water.

Some Feng Shui areas require the presence of water elements.

It is better that the elements of water or their image symbolize clean water, and better water in motion, or even better, water rushing upward.

Fountains (or images of them), not waterfalls. A clean river, a calm sea (or an image of them), and not a pond.

However, more water or objects symbolizing it does not mean better.

There must be moderation in everything.

For example, it is believed that an aquarium in the bedroom is not very good.

Because water itself is a symbol of the elements and a very energetically strong element; a large aquarium on a metaphysical level can interfere with the rest of the owners of the house.

Light. Lighting in the house should be distributed so that there are no dark areas in the house. Especially if any of the important sectors fall on them.

In Feng Shui, fluorescent light and fluorescent lamps are not welcome; such light is considered cold and dead.

Crystal chandeliers and the use of various crystals and anything that gives a reflection, a rainbow or “bunnies” on the walls are very welcome.

This play of light symbolically increases what is acquired in the house, especially wealth and prosperity.

ENTRANCE DOOR

A door is the external face of a house or apartment.

The front door should be beautiful and solid.

From the outside, the front door must be well lit and a number must be attached to it.

Otherwise, how will luck and wealth find us?

Another important requirement is that if there is a mirror near the entrance to the house, the front door should not be reflected in it.

Otherwise, everything acquired in the house seems to leave it.

Opposite the entrance to a house, apartment or office, it is recommended to hang an amulet against the evil eye - a peacock eye. Such amulets are brought from Turkey and they are sold in souvenir shops.

It is believed that the Fan also helps against the evil eye and negative influence other people.

This will help protect the house from the arrival of unkind people, and if they do appear on our doorstep, they will not be able to spoil the aura and good Feng Shui of our home.

If the front door definitely has any of the important Feng Shui sectors, this is also very bad.

This situation can be slightly corrected - hang a mirror on the outside of the door.

Thus, you will, as it were, cut off and reflect this territory.

Place the zone itself and the necessary accessories to activate it nearby.

In Feng Shui, such tricks are acceptable and even encouraged.

The main thing is that the mirror hangs so that the image of yourself is completely contained in it. tall man in the house. Otherwise, we symbolically cut off his life growth, in the sense of development.

This applies to all mirrors in the house. It's better to stretch a little than to squat a little.

In addition, hang wind chimes with hollow tubes at the entrance to your house. They will also cut off the exit of favorable energy from the house.

TOILET, BATHROOM

In order for what we demand from life and receive from it to linger and take root in our home and not slip away like sand through our fingers, it is necessary to do the following.

Every home has a garbage disposal or trash can, as well as plumbing connections.

IN Feng Shui is believed that along with water in the bathroom or toilet(also with garbage), the accumulated positive energy figuratively goes away (this applies to all areas of life - money, health, etc.).

Therefore, if any of the important zones clearly fall on the bathroom or toilet, this is very bad.

Use the “mirror” technique as described in the case of the front door.

It is believed that by placing these elements in such places, everything is symbolically washed away and leaves the house along with the water.

Make sure the toilet remains closed at all times!

The red ribbon symbolically blocks the release of positive energy and acquired values ​​of various types from the house along with water and garbage.

KITCHEN

The kitchen in the house symbolizes the hearth.

In the kitchen there is a stove - a symbol of home warmth, a dining table - a symbol of unification, a refrigerator - a symbol of the well-being and satiety of the family.

Keep the kitchen, and especially these important family symbols, clean.

According to Feng Shui, it is very good to keep a bowl of nuts, sweets or fruits (even artificial fruits work) in your home or office - this is for money and well-being.

It is good to place a vase with chocolates, oranges, or better yet lemons in the money sector. Or even better, a whole candy or fruit tree, even an artificial one. These are on sale now.

The kitchen should be well lit, as should all the most important sectors for your family.

Fridge. Periodically empty the refrigerator of stale or long-stored food.

It's very good to keep a bottle of champagne in the refrigerator, even if your family doesn't drink. Champagne in the refrigerator is a symbol that the house is always ready to celebrate another achievement or joyful event, and is also ready for the arrival of good guests.

Table. In Feng Shui, it is believed that a round table is preferable to a rectangular one.

In addition, the kitchen table must be solid and durable. Because the table is a symbol of family, well-being and unity. It is not recommended to place a table made of transparent glass in the kitchen.

It is bad if the table is pushed towards the wall and family members sit facing this wall.

This symbolically blocks the energetic growth and development of those sitting at the table. The expression “I hit a wall” is about such a case.

The same applies to our desktop or desk our child.

You should always sit with your back to the wall and so that the front door is in our viewing area.

Plate. If space and financial capabilities allow, Feng Shui recommends installing a stove - a family hearth in the center of the kitchen, so that, like the table, all family members have free access. This will have a beneficial effect on the family atmosphere and the well-being of family members.

If there is stagnation in any of the areas of life, especially wealth and well-being, urgently “scrape” the stove. Believe me, it helps.

BEDROOM

The bedroom is a place in our home where we should rest in order to recharge ourselves with strength and energy for future achievements.

Accordingly, everything in this room must meet this important principle.

There should be no rubble in the bedroom, no closets with a lot of unused things - negative stagnant energy.

Window. Opposite the bedroom window there should not be any sharp external objects or corners - a dry tree without foliage, a spire, a high-voltage line, a sharp corner of a neighboring house, a tower crane, etc.

Also, unfavorable objects in the surroundings of our home are monuments, a highway or railroad, a cemetery or funeral home, water towers, garbage dumps, etc.

The same rule applies to other windows in the house or apartment.

For more information about colors and their impact on the human psyche, see the KRASSULA website in the “Color” section. From the history of color."

Large amounts of water or water elements are also not recommended for the same reason. Water carries strong energy, which does not promote relaxation.

Mirrors. In Feng Shui, a mirror is a water element and, accordingly, a carrier of strong water energy.

A large number of mirrors is not welcome in the bedroom.

Another requirement is that the bed should not be reflected in the mirror; the larger the reflection, the worse.

Bed. The bed should be comfortable, this is natural. It is recommended to sleep in a direction that is favorable for each person. It is determined by simple calculations according to Feng Shui.

The bed should have a free approach on both sides if you live as a couple and even more so if you dream and strive to find your match.

Above the bed it is recommended to place paintings or images of flowers (peonies, but not prickly roses), hearts, photos of happy couples and other symbols of a good family, loving people, love, romance, an image of a pair of swans, cranes or storks, etc.

There should not be any shelves, cabinets, beams, another tier, etc. above the bed. This “crushes” the positive energy of growth and does not contribute to relaxation. This is fraught with danger, albeit on a subconscious level.

According to Feng Shui, each of us has our own happy direction, which is recommended to be observed when planning your interior, in which direction the bed should stand or how to harmoniously arrange your workplace, etc. It is believed that following these simple rules brings good luck and focuses positive energy around us.

In addition to amulets and talismans of love Feng Shui you can find yours personal happy direction- this is like the “star” of your year of birth. To find your personal direction that brings you luck in love and marriage, you need to calculate your own “gua number”. The resulting number will help you determine favorable and unfavorable directions and sectors in your home.

The ancient Chinese technique of Feng Shui states that the correct arrangement of objects in the house can influence our lives, attracting only positive events into it. If you strive to improve your financial situation and fill family relationships with harmony, then it is important to adhere to the basic rules of this teaching.

By following the advice of Feng Shui, you will be able to create a favorable atmosphere in your home and feel a constant surge of strength and vitality.

Getting rid of unnecessary things

According to Feng Shui, before you fill your home with positive energy, you need to get rid of the negativity. To do this, it is enough to reconsider household items that you have not used in everyday life for a long time. By getting rid of unnecessary junk, you clear the way for new energy which will bring good luck and prosperity.

Feng Shui purified living room

Cleanliness in the house

Your relationships and mutual understanding between family members depend on the cleanliness and conditions in the house. Organize regularly general cleaning, cleaning the most inaccessible places in the house from saw and dirt. It is believed that this is where all the negative energy accumulates.

Protection from negativity

To protect your home from negativity, you need to hang a mirror opposite the front door. It is desirable that this item be round or octagonal in shape. According to Feng Shui, mirror reflection can prevent the spread of negative energy from an entering guest.

Octagonal feng shui mirror

Expanding the space of the rooms

Bulky furniture not only visually makes the apartment smaller, but according to the rules of Feng Shui, it has a bad effect on family well-being and the success of all family members. When arranging rooms, make sure that one or two walls are not filled with wardrobes, cabinets and other pieces of furniture.

Vintage and antiques

Feng Shui warns fans of vintage furniture and other antiques that these items can bring negative energy from their previous owners. Therefore, before filling your apartment with such items, ask an antique shop about their history.

Rule for the front door

In Feng Shui there is a belief that financial success comes into the house through the front door. In order not to feel a lack of money, you need this door to be made of wood. But if a metal one has already been installed, then you need to hang any wooden accessories in the middle.

Feng Shui meaning of entrance doors

Lighting in the house

An important aspect for attracting good luck to your home is lighting. If you have large windows, you don’t need to cover them with curtains or blinds during the day. Let the rays of light penetrate your home and fill the room with positive energy. IN evening time you need to take care of artificial lighting. Lamps should hang not only in living rooms, but on the outside of the front door.

Sunny lounge

Bedroom

Feng Shui pays great attention to the room where you sleep. In the bedroom, the bed should be positioned with the head of the bed facing the wall. Avoid the option of placing a sleeping place near a window, as the space opening in front of you deprives you of confidence in difficult situations. In addition, Feng Shui rules strictly prohibit buying a bed that is not new. The sleeping place must have only a single owner.

Ideal bedroom according to feng shui

Window location

It is believed that if the window is located immediately opposite the door, then positive energy does not linger in your home. To correct this situation, Feng Shui advises placing indoor plants on the windowsill. It is advisable to give preference to large-leaved flowers, for example, ficus or crassula. This simple method will allow you to retain good energy in your home.

Home flora that complies with the rules of Feng Shui

Dinner Zone

There should be a mirror hanging in the kitchen or living room, where you often set the table when you receive guests. According to Feng Shui, a mirror can double positive energy. Mirror reflection will double not only the wealth on your table, but also your finances.

Dining area with mirror

Dishes

To prevent omissions and disagreements in the family, it is forbidden to store broken dishes in the house. If it happens that your cup falls and breaks, then you need to get rid of it. No matter how dear this item is to you, cracks in the dishes are projected onto family relationships.

Household items

Feng Shui states that there should be no broken or broken items in the house. So that incidents do not occur in your life, and success and luck become constant companions, you need to monitor the serviceability of all the items with which the apartment is filled. If a light bulb burns out, replace it with a new one, and repair the faulty clock immediately.

Distribution of rooms between family members

Feng Shui rules state that the largest room in the house should belong to the main breadwinner in the family. Thanks to this distribution, a balance is created in mutual understanding between all family members.

Houseplants

Fung Shui prescriptions pay great attention to the plants that are in your home. If the plant is healthy and has large leaves, then it will help strengthen your well-being. Having noticed that the flowers have begun to fade for no particular reason, you need to urgently pay attention to your health. In this way, plants indicate internal ailments of the apartment owner. It is also important to avoid flowers from the cactus family. Thorns and sharp leaves will prevent you from stopping your career and spiritual growth.

Photos

Feng Shui rules state that rooms should contain photographs only of those people who live there. It is not recommended to post photos of distant relatives. To create a favorable environment in family relationships, it is necessary to place romantic and memorable photographs of the loving couple in the bedroom.

Smells in the apartment

According to Feng Shui, the apartment should smell of freshness and essential oils. This aromatherapy has a beneficial effect on the entire body, charging you with energy and positivity for the whole day. Diffusing scents of lavender, lemongrass, mint or rosemary will also be helpful.

Feng Shui aroma lamp

Family relationships

Feng Shui pays attention not only to additional attributes that can normalize family relationships. With the help of simple rules that prohibit scandals, quarrels, and raising your voice, you can achieve harmony and peace.

Changes in the house

It is believed that by deciding to radically change the decor in your home, you can introduce new events into your destiny. This is precisely what worries Feng Shui adherents, since innovations can be both good and bad. Therefore, you need to refrain from sudden changes. Everything should be smooth and measured so that positive energy can adapt.

Raising money

The northern part of the apartment is the section responsible for good luck in career and finance. Therefore, it is in this zone that it is necessary to place an aquarium with small goldfish. In addition, a turtle will also be a favorable inhabitant of the aquarium. In Feng Shui, this is the most powerful sign, symbolizing good luck and luck.

Pendants "Feng Shui Wind Chime"

Every person should have his own home: a place that provides shelter, warmth and comfort, as well as the opportunity to restore strength lost during the day. A properly arranged house charges a person with the positive energy he needs to continue living. Where does it come from in the house, and is there positive energy in all houses?

Unfortunately, such a blissful picture is not observed in every home. Residents of some homes often complain of poor health and chronic fatigue, without even suspecting that the cause similar condition It is not a disease, but an extremely unfavorable energy situation in the house.

A catastrophic lack of positive energy, as a rule, is observed in cluttered, insufficiently lit, unkempt rooms.

How to correct the situation, fill your home with beneficial energy, make it a source of vitality and the basis for a prosperous and happy life for everyone who lives in it? The ancient Chinese practice of Feng Shui will help correct the situation.

The area in which the house is located is of no small importance, since it can affect both the physical and mental health of a person. So, what area is considered suitable for the location of a residential building from a Feng Shui point of view?

1. There should be no busy highways, swamps or places for storing waste (in other words, garbage dumps) near the site on which the house is located.
2. The site should be planned in such a way that there is a fairly large open space in front of the house, and residential buildings, mountains, a dense beautiful forest or park are located behind it. This is consistent with the subconscious desire of every person to have a reliably protected rear. It is desirable that all of the listed objects be located on a small natural elevation.

   There should be no slopes or cliffs on the back side of the house.

3. Feng Shui experts say that any plants (even poisonous ones) are a source of life-giving qi energy. Therefore, an area planted with pears, cherries, plums and apple trees is a very favorable place to locate a house.
4. The presence of a body of water (river, lake, sea or pond) is a very important factor from the point of view of Feng Shui. Its location on the site is no less important, since it should flow in front of the residential building itself, and not behind it.

   The best source of life-giving and pure chi energy can be a calmly flowing river with a winding shoreline and clear water.

5. The garden plot should be spacious and not cluttered with a large number of outbuildings that block the path of life-giving energy.

By building a house with our own hands, we get the opportunity to build it for ourselves, taking into account our characteristics and preferences.

Starting construction from scratch, you can create a building that meets all the wishes of Feng Shui practice, thanks to which the life of the people who live in it will be full of harmony and well-being.

• If you are just planning to build a house on an already purchased plot, take a close look at it: having found a place with lush and bright grass (which indicates close groundwater), position the building so that this place is right in front of the entrance to the home. Thanks to this arrangement, the flow of positive energy will go directly into it. The area can be surrounded by shrubs that do not have sharp thorns.

You should avoid the fashionable tendency to build a garage into the structure of the house, and even more so to enter the living space through it, since as a result, the negative energy accumulated in the garage penetrates into the rooms.

• Building a house according to Feng Shui also rejects another popular tradition of installing a swimming pool in the basement located under a residential building. This should not be done under any circumstances, because after some time the humidity in the house will become too high, which will immediately affect the health of the people living in it. It is better to build a pool outside the walls of a residential building. It is possible to build a bathhouse under the house, but you should not just place it under the bedroom or living room.

• The practice of Feng Shui, dating back over five thousand years, recommends building houses from environmentally friendly and natural materials: wood and stone. Ideally, the most suitable for construction can be considered materials produced in the same area in which the house is being built, since this factor is a source of additional natural energy, beneficial both for the building itself and for the health of the people living in it.

The use of reinforced concrete and large amounts of metal in the construction of a house is extremely undesirable, since the inhabitants of such a home will constantly be surrounded by electric fields, which is unsafe for health.

The driveway to the house should be winding; it cannot be laid directly to the threshold: along its path you can place a miniature pond, a fountain or several small flower beds.

A house built taking into account all the requirements of Feng Shui will allow a person to merge very harmoniously with the environment, which cannot but affect his mental comfort and excellent well-being, and this, in turn, inevitably entails personal well-being and career success.
