With the help of ancient Chinese teachings, you can change your life for the better and create harmony in your apartment. We figure out how it works and what basic rules you need to know so that prosperity, love and success reign in the house.
According to the ancient Chinese practice of organizing space (this is how the term feng shui stands), there are nine zones that are responsible for the spheres of human life. All of them are indicated in the so-called Bagua grid. It is an octagon divided into eight identical shapes. Each of them symbolizes one of the aspects of life (or zone) and corresponds to the location of the cardinal points. So, feng shui distinguishes the following components: wealth, love (happiness), health, career, luck (mentors, travel), family, children (creativity), knowledge and fame (reputation).
What needs to be done to attract wealth, health, luck, love and happiness to your home? To do this, you will need to draw a diagram of your home, including all rooms (including the pantry), doors, windows and bathrooms. After that, using a compass (it is often found in smartphones), determine where the north and other cardinal points are in the apartment, and mark this on the diagram.
Next, you need to print the Bagua grid and overlay it on the drawing so that the north on the octagon coincides with the north on the house diagram. Now you can start improving your home. If you have a one-room apartment and some areas on the Bagua grid are missing, they can be replaced by hanging mirrors in these places.
To improve your financial situation, you need to activate the zone responsible for wealth. It is located in the southeastern part of the dwelling, and its element is water. A small fountain installed in this place of the apartment, an aquarium or simply images of fish, as well as a plant called the “money tree”, will help you earn more. This part of the house or room should be decorated in beige, brown, purple or green colors. Order should reign in the zone of wealth, unnecessary things should be removed away.
To meet a soul mate, you need to harmonize the area that symbolizes love. It is located in the southwestern part of the house, and its element is the earth. To become the most beloved and happy, in this place of the apartment you should put figures of two doves, swans, dolphins, angels or figurines of lovers. Alternatively, you can put a book about love, decorate this area with candles (preferably a couple) and live plants. Preference should be given to terracotta, brown and red colors, as well as their shades.
The health zone is responsible for the well-being in the house. It is always located in the center of the housing. To avoid diseases, in this place you need to put objects made of wood, for example, a table, chairs or wooden figurines.
Since the health zone is located in the heart of the apartment, you can hang a crystal ball here (size does not matter). It will dissipate good energy in all directions of the living space.
The zone of luck is also called the zone of mentors and travel. It is located in the northwest, it does not correspond to the element, but the element – metal. In order for everything to go well in life, surrounded by the right and necessary people and there were as many pleasant travels as possible, in this part of the dwelling you should put metal figurines or figurines, hang pictures of angels, icons, portraits of dear people or images of famous and authoritative personalities. Favorable colors for this zone are white, gray, yellow, silver and gold.
To get a promotion at work, to be successful, you need to equip a career area. She is in the northern part, and her element is water. This zone can be decorated in gray, light blue, blue, black. It will be beneficial to move up the career ladder if you put an aquarium, indoor fountain or a turtle figurine here.
By the way, it is not at all necessary to equip all zones at once. It is enough to draw up one or two zones in Feng Shui and, when the result appears, take on other areas. So that all efforts are not in vain, you need to carry out a general cleaning at home and throw out all broken objects, including non-working equipment and spoiled food from the refrigerator. Bad energy accumulates in objects that are idle and not used. Negative energy prevents the emergence of something new and positive in life. The same applies to clothing. Wardrobe items that have not been worn for more than a year should be thrown away without regret.
