The Metal Element In Feng Shui

The Power Of The Metal Element

The metal element is one of the five elements in feng shui. The right placement of metal in the room can improve the flow of good energy.

 

The metal element is yin in nature. It signifies the energy moving inward. It represents intelligence, life, and energy. It also represents success and it brings power. The metal element focuses on logic and mental clarity.

The earth element strengthens the metal element and in turn, strengthens the water element. So you can use it to strengthen the water element in your home.

However, one negative aspect of the metal element is that it weakens the wood element. So to create balance, just add a small touch of the fire element to minimize its impact.

The metal colours are white, silver and gold. Its shapes are circle, oval or crescent. It is considered the purest shape since its line never end.

The best things to use to decorate your home with the metal element are coins, bells, metal objects such as iron, aluminium silver, steel, and gold. Pictures of coins can also be used as decorations.

You can also use wind chimes, metallic Buddhas, vases, artwork that depicts the metal element and flatware.

The presence of this element in your space, whether home or office minimizes or helps eliminate the distractions. It creates clarity and the energy of calm.

It also brings the qualities of precision, efficiency, and sharpness.

In the Bagua areas of your home, this element is best in the north, west and northwest areas. This element does not go with the east, southeast, northeast, southwest, centre and the east area in your home.

A balanced space requires proper placement of things. Use this element to optimize the flow of chi in your place.

The Water Element In Feng Shui – Feng Shui Mastery Show

The Power Of The Water Element

Water is one of the Feng Shui elements. It belongs to the yin or the feminine side. However, if it flows aggressively, it has more of the masculine.

 

The absence of the water element when decorating a space creates an imbalance in your place. Using the water element correctly in your space will increase the flow of energy of wealth and abundance. It’s the reason why it is called as another word for wealth.

In Chinse, water is called Shui. It symbolizes stability, honesty, and patience. Blue and aqua are the colours of water. Among the four cycles of the season, it represents winter. In the Bagua Map, it represents the Life Journey Sector or the Career which can be found at the bottom-centre of the map.

It represents wealth and luck. In the Feng Shui element, the moon and the mercury are related to water. It is also associated with the black turtle.

The water element nourishes the wood element. In the creative cycle, it is nourished by the metal element. It is controlled by the earth element in the controlling cycle.

Proper placement of the symbols or things related to the water element in your home can create an auspicious energy that can help you in your career. Using the water element in your home can harness the energy of this element and enhance the flow of chi.

Any shape that is wavy in your space brings this element in your place. Crystals, water, and glass bring the water element into your space.

As much as it brings good energy into your space, the wrong placement of this symbols is considered inauspicious. So be very careful.

Do not place water features in your bedroom as it is believed to put out the passion in your relationship.

Make sure the water feature of your home is facing towards your home. The wrong direction of water means wealth running away from you.

Creating balance in your home brings good chi in your place. Along with the other elements in Feng Shui, use the water element to optimize the good energy in your house or office.

Space Clearing To Attract Wealth Energy

Space clearing has been in existence for thousands of years. It’s an ancient practice that is designed to give you a better environment.

In feng shui, when our space is filled with negative energy, our finances are affected. So we need to revitalize our space through space clearing.

How many times do we need to do space clearing in our business? Aside from doing space clearing during the important moon phases, like New Moon and Full Moon, you also need to do space clearing after every bad event such as heavy fighting or argument.

Tensions among employees often happen. It’s one thing that cannot be avoided. A good indicator of when do you need to do the space clearing in your business is whenever people have this feeling of being unsettled.

Whenever you are setting a new goal or want to bring in more money. Bringing in good energy is of utmost importance.

So, when and how do you do the space clearing in your business?

1. Evaluate the energy in your place. Is the energy too stagnant? Where did it come from?

2. What exactly do you want to get? What kind of energy do you need? It is important to let your goals or intentions be known. Do the affirmations like ” I bless this space and everybody working here, that all may grow and feel the energy of prosperity and abundance.”

3. Be emotionally, mentally and physically fit to do the space clearing. How you feel on the inside will reflect in your space. Make sure you have the vibrant energy. Your feelings should align with your intentions.

4.  Let your presence be known. Whether you say it out loud or only in your mind, your space should know that you are there.

4 Things To Check If You Have A Good Feng Shui Home Office

 

How do you feel when you’re in your home office? Do you feel motivated or do you get easily irritated? Is it conducive to learning or developing new ideas?

 

If your answers are more on the negative side, then it’s time for you to take action. It’s time for you to have a good feng shui home office.

A good feng shui home office is vital to being productive in the workplace.

A cluttered home office is filled with negative vibrations. It drains your energy and affects your productivity. It makes you easily irritated which can lead to arguments with the people around you.

Below are the things to know if you have a good feng shui home office:

1. Is your office space free from clutter? Is it neat and organized? Clutter creates stress. We tend to get overwhelmed by our work when there are tons of paper scattered on our desk.

Get organized. Put all the documents in folders. It’s much easier if you use colour coding and label each of them.

2. Do you inhale stale air in your home office? We stay in our office most of the time during the day. Sometimes, the smell of old garbage or cigarette smoke stays in the air for quite some time.

Open your window first thing in the morning. Let the smell of fresh air come into your space. If it’s not possible, use indoor plants. Plants absorb the toxins and releases oxygen in our space. Try to choose plants that are low maintenance such as snake plant, lucky bamboo or spider plant.

3. Where is your desk located? In feng shui, your desk should be in the command position. It should be positioned with the wall or cabinet behind you. This makes you feel relaxed and confident.

Your desk should be put in such a way that you can see who’s coming in but it should not be put directly straight to the door.

4. Is your space well-lit? Dark spaces make your work a little bit harder since you tend to put more effort into finding new things.

Replace old or non-working bulbs. If it’s possible, let natural sunlight get into your space.

EFT Tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques)

What Is EFT?

EFT (Emotional Healing Technique) or better known as tapping is a holistic technique. It has been proven to help get rid of emotional disorders, addiction, stress, and anxiety among others.

 

Feng Shui is about shifting the energy within and around us and EFT is about releasing and creating a good flow of energy within us. It helps us remain calm and restore our body’s balance.

EFT is a psychological acupressure technique that deals with more of our inner health. It is thought of as a combined Chinese acupressure and modern psychology. It uses the fingertips to tap the specific meridian endpoints of the body while focusing on our negative emotions.

Our body has an energy system that travels through the meridians. Just like acupuncture,  EFT promotes healing our body by tapping these meridians. These help to stimulate this system and eventually remove the blockages in our body enabling the energy to flow naturally.

In EFT, we focus on our negative emotions. We may be experiencing a terrible problem or have some unresolved issues that cause our emotional or physical pain. When doing the tapping, we use our fingertips to tap each of the 9 meridian points of our body for up to 5 to 7 times. It is a powerful yet painless way of healing our body.

How do you use tapping or EFT in your life?

We are living a fast-paced life. Stress and anxiety are already a given these days. These lead to poor health and emotional baggage. Living in this kind of life makes us feel stuck and empty. It stops us from having a life filled with calm, peace and happiness.

If you are one of those people who feel like being in a trap, depressed or sick and you want to have a change of life, try doing the EFT. It’s easy to do and is proven to help people feel better not only on the outside but most especially on the inside.

Lucky Bamboo For Good Feng Shui In Your Home

Get To Know The Lucky Bamboo And The Energy It Brings

The lucky bamboo is a common fixture in our homes. Whether it be at home or the office, the lucky bamboo is considered as one of the most common Feng Shui cures. It is cheap and easy to maintain.

 

However, even though it is easy to take care, most people still tend to neglect it. I’ve seen countless lucky bamboo plants struggling to survive in different homes. A dying or wilted bamboo plant brings bad energy and it is bad Feng Shui.

The lucky bamboo plant is hollow from the inside. It is said that this kind of hollowness teaches us the ultimate wisdom and that is to be open on the inside and let the energy flow freely. For only when there is a free flow of energy can healing begin.

Some people ask if the lucky bamboo is related to the 5 elements in Feng Shui. The obvious answer would be an absolute yes. Here’s the reason why:

1. The lucky bamboo represents the wood element.

2. The water that you pour on the plant to nourish it represents the water element.

3. The metal coin that you put on it or the glass pot represents the metal element.

4. The red ribbon that you tie on the plant represents the fire element.

5. Rocks, stones and clay that are being used represent the earth element.

If you own a bamboo or you’re planning to own one and use it to bring good energy into your home, bare in mind that there are vital areas that you can place the bamboo. The best place to put your plant is in your money area which is the South-East and your family bagua area which is the East area of your home.

The number of stalks in your plant represents different things.

Two stalks are for love and marriage.

Three stalks are for happiness.

Five stalks are for good health.

Eight stalks are for wealth and prosperity.

Nine stalks are for good fortune.

The Singing Bowl And The Energy In Your Home

The Perfect Time To Use Your Singing Bowls

You have heard this thing called singing bowl but you have no idea how powerful it is. Most people take it for granted. They end up as decorations in homes, gathering dust, not being used for their real purpose.

 

The real purpose of singing bowls is to cleanse our space. The sound of the singing bowl brings a powerful energy into our space. It promotes healing in our place.

We are affected by the vibrations in our home, business or office. Stagnant energy causes diseases, conflict in relationships and unproductivity while a free flow of energy helps you create balance. It makes you feel good, keep you calm and happy. These good qualities create a good relationship and a healthy working environment.

Using a singing bowl to create a good vibration in your space is an ancient technique. It is a time-tested Feng Shui cure.

When do you use the singing bowl?

Below are the best times to use your singing bowl:

1. Use the singing bowl to lift the energy in your home. Use it during your space clearing sessions. It is best to use it when there’s an argument or a member of your household is suffering from a serious disease.

2. You can also use the singing bowls when money is scarce or there’s a slow down in your business. The best time to use the singing bowl is in the morning wherein everything is still calm and quiet.

3. Singing bowls are good at lifting the energy of the stagnant and dark areas in your home.

4. Use the healing power of your singing bowl before and after spring cleaning.

The Black Colour And Feng Shui – Feng Shui Mastery Show

 

Most people find black as their all-time favourite colour.  In our society, black signifies modernity, sophistication and above all, power. It makes you feel and think that you are in control. The colour is connected with different emotions such as hatred and grief. It also symbolizes luxury.

 

 

In Feng Shui, the black colour is an energy that is related to the energy of mystery. It represents power. It belongs to the water element. It is the colour of the feminine principle that is the yin. It is known as the passive energy.

It is best to use the colour when you wish to gain or nurture things in your life. It gives you a sense of connection with everything that surrounds you. It sends a message of having the will to move forward.

However, too much of anything is not good. Feng Shui is about balance. Use the black colour along with the light colours to create balance in your space. It is best to combine it with colours yellow, whites and pastels.

Are you still wondering how to use the colour in your home?

Below are tips on how to use black in your space:

1. Black is a good choice if your door is facing the north. It will strengthen the energy of your home. It brings elegance and calmness. However, try to avoid using this colour if your door is facing South or West.

2. The colour black can bring vibrancy to your all-white kitchen. A black stove, floor tiles or even black chairs.

3. Black accessories can also be used in your home. A black vase, candle holder, jar or picture frames can be used to introduce the black colour in your space.

4. Black walls are okay if your home office is in the North section of your home. This colour belongs to the water element and water symbolizes wealth.

Bring In Good Feng Shui In Your Tiny Home

Living in a tiny home is the trend these days. Most people prefer to live in the city because of the worsening problem of traffic. That is why tiny homes are sprouting everywhere.

However, we can often hear people complaining how little their apartment is. They often say that the place is so small that they don’t feel at home. They say their space makes them feel like they are being suffocated. They can’t breathe.

Feng Shui is about creating balance within and around you and that includes your space. When you feel good, relaxed, happy and peaceful, then your home has good energy. The size of your house will not matter. So even a tiny home can have a free flow of energy.

Applying Feng Shui in a tiny home can be a little bit hard. The work can be too taxing. Imagine applying Feng Shui in a place where the bedroom, living room and the kitchen are in the same area. But though it may be hard, it is not impossible.

Below are ways on how to apply good feng shui in your tiny home:

1. Clear your door and entryway. Your door is the mouth of chi. Decluttering your door and entryway is important since this is where the energy comes in. Make sure that there are no unnecessary things cluttered near on it.

2. Mirrors are often used to create the impression of a bigger space. It attracts the light from the outside. It gives you the feeling that you are in a bigger space thus making it easier for you to breathe.

3. Separate your sleeping area from the rest. Your bedroom is a place for rest. Make sure that gadgets will not be visible from your bed.

4. Paint your walls with white or light colours. They make your space look bigger.

7 Steps To Getting Rid Of Stress With Feng Shui

Say Goodbye To Stress With These Easy Steps

All of us experience stress. It is one of the root cause of major diseases these days. Stress makes us feel frustrated, crazy and irritated. It is a bad energy that slowly consumes our mind and body.

 

Most people are living with stress day in and day out. The moment we get out of the house to go to work, we get stuck in the traffic, upon reaching the office wherein there are loads of work that needs to be done up to the time we reach our home where clutter awaits us.

This is why creating a stress-free home is important. If you can create a stress-free home, you can have a stress-free life.

In Feng Shui, your home represents you. When your home is cluttered, you are stuck in and out. You feel drained and stressed.

However, getting rid of stress is not hard to do and it’s not expensive either. All you need to have is set aside some time and the decision to start.

Why don’t you try the 7 easy ways below to get rid of stress in your home and your life:

1. Clean your home thoroughly. We’re not talking about clutter clearing but general cleaning. Let go of the things that you don’t need and remove all the dust in every corner of your home.

2. Take care of your health by choosing healthy foods only. Clean your kitchen and restock it with healthy stuff.

3. Add warmth to your space by hanging a nice tapestry. Mandala tapestries are a good choice. They’re cool to the eyes.

4. Use scented candles or essential oil in your home. A few drops of heavenly scent like lavender or sandalwood can make a difference.

5. Use earth colors in your place. It will make your space more relaxing. It will make you fall asleep easier. Add some nice pottery to your place.

6. The sound of flowing water has a relaxing effect on people. It is so soothing that it reduces your stress and anxiety right away.

7. The sound of healing. Play a classical music. It is known to fight depression, relieves pain, put you to sleep and reduces stress levels. It will also make you happy. If classical music is not to your liking, then the sounds of birds chirping will make you feel like you are in the forest.

Always remember that doing things that you don’t like will cause you stress. Choose only the things that you are comfortable doing.
