Simple Feng Shui Tips

The Feng Shui Bagua
         Feng Shui is an ancient science that balances energy. We can use the principles of Feng Shui to design and decorate our homes, which creates an auspicious flow of energy.

An important sector in 2011 is the northwest corner of your home.  It's the luckiest area for wealth, and uses the element of Fire.  Put colors such as red, pink, purple, orange and yellow in this area, and remember to balance the energy with an item from the Earth element.  Use crystals to enhance the wealth energy!

The southwest corner in 2011 governs romantic and creative endeavors.  Use blue and black colors, and elements of wood and water.  Don't use fire or metal elements in this area.  Display images of romance, travel, and vision boards here.

You can use the compass on your smartphone to figure out the directions if you don't have a real one handy.  Try these ideas out right now....and let me know if you experience some good luck in the next few days!
