I am gobsmacked to look at the intuitive Feng Shui collage that I made last July 2012… I was far to expect all what has been happening since then!

As many of you already know, I have been spending some very special time in one of the most remote areas in the world… in Borroloola, NT (Australia) – Gulf of Carpentaria. Here I am spending quality time with our traditional owners and I have learned so much about the songlines, the unseen, the  Land, the connection, the singing and their so ancient culture.

In July last year I never expected to go to NT and do what I am doing here! One of the sentences I wrote at the back of my collage was “I am visiting interesting places and learn about other cultures”…

Since then, I lectured on the Pacific Pearl (New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji) and learned about these countries and cultures and now… the bottom right part of my collage is happening with very explicit pictures (sector 6 – Travels & Helpers) : I am right now, here, in ‘crocodile country’, there are mostly white 4WD cars driving here and the picture of the two aboriginal children sitting on the crocodile relate to the local story here about a crocodile called ‘Bombastic’ that the kids are feeding in the river and then run away.

Hope this inspires you to make your personal collage following my recipe (see book “Your First Easy Steps to Feng Shui” 3rd edition by Roseline Deleu, available as E-book on http://fengshuisteps.com/books_products.html#English

The Shadow of our Thoughts

Tags

As many of you already know, I have been spending some time in a very remote area in Northern Territory (Australia) where I continue my Aboriginal and Feng Shui researches while connecting with elders and with the land. I take this opportunity to listen to locals. I participate to the community daily life and I like learning about our differences. I also read as much as I can in old books relating on what has been written on early aboriginal life – by this I mean:  ‘before white men’.

This morning, in one of these old books, I read something that I think fits perfectly for many people (worldwide) today, let’s look and make a parallel into the context of the power of our minds. I’ll share with you a couple of paragraphs on one of the ways indigenous used to fight and kill each other here in this NT (Northern Territory) region less than 2 centuries ago!

 “… – To understand the fighting and dangers of tribal life the skill with weapons and magic must be known. In many cases, what appeared to be magic was a clever attack by a human. To people with these beliefs it was hard to find a line that separated them both.

Sometimes a strong and athletic killer was ordered by the elders to chase a man. He was told that he must NOT use weapons or harm the victim, but the man must die. The chase might last for weeks and cover hundreds of kilometres and for the doomed man there was no escape. This shadowy figure was always following him and in the end his brain became disturbed, he was overcome by fear and exhaustion and death was welcome. To him, his follower had become an evil spirit and this belief killed him. – …” – Excerpt of ‘Wurley & Wommera ‘by Janet Mathews

Today this strong athletic shadow could be symbolised by the fear of anything that you don’t want to happen to you… because what you don’t want, you often attract – this is part of the” Law of Attraction”.

Your fears are like that shadow they mention in the book; in this case, fears are the shadow of your personal negative thoughts. You don’t need anyone following you, your minds are creating that thought form, that entity that nags you… when you fear and allow it to frighten you.

Please, focus on what you WISH rather on what you don’t want and your fears will vanish!

I work more and more on the Feng Shui of our minds with this I mean the harmony in our thoughts combined with what surround us. May I suggest you to please fill your lungs with fresh air and happiness (Feng); drink a lot of water and add love thoughts onto your water bottle (Shui) and turn on your television only for fun and uplifting programs?

Enjoy life and fill it with a positive outlook.
Simply, ask yourself today… What do you really want?

THINK HAPPY and BE HAPPY!

Roseline Deleu (Fengshuisteps.com) interviews
Jo
(cuddlesandcurves.com.au)

1. Please JO, tell our readers briefly WHEN, HOW, WHERE or in WHICH circumstances we met?
We met Roseline many years ago when she was looking to redesign her website. We have 2 branches to our business, operating Cuddles and Curves Lingerie online store and also designing websites (billelphick.com) for clients and Roseline, you approached us due to word of mouth recommendation.

2. Since then, could you share what is the most interesting Feng Shui result that you have experienced?
One of the “fringe benefits” of knowing Roseline is that we have absorbed so much wonderful advice and wisdom from her. We have completed courses she has run and found great improvements in our day-to-day life and in our business due to Roseline’s Feng Shui priniciples and teachings.

3. Let’s talk more about you now JO… Tell us a little about yourself and your business
Our webdesign work and experience gave us lots of skills and this resulted in the Cuddles and Curves Lingerie webiste and e-commerce in 1999.

4. What are the five words that people would use to describe cuddles and curves.com.au?
easy, exciting, beautiful, raunchy & quality.

5. What was the purpose on starting your CUDDLES AND CURVES business and how has the concept come about?
Cuddles and Curves came about because we identified a need for a comprehensive lingerie store, providing high quality apparel in a wide range of sizes so that women of all sizes are catered to (Australian sizes from size 6 to 26). We had been disappointed to find that comprehensize ranges of lingerie in Small to Plus sizes were not readily available online at the time. As the business has been operating since 1999, and we have continued to fine-tune our website, lines of lingerie and customer service, we have built up a loyal clientele and continued to garner new clients around Australia and the world as a result of this excellent service.

6. What are the most common issues of people who come to see you for advice?
Amongst our lingerie clients, many have had bad experiences, either when buying items (or attempting to do so) in person at stores or they have had less than adequate service online at some other stores.
Quite often their reasons for dissatisfaction elsewhere have concerned their feeling that perhaps because they were a “plus size” person, they were not catered to in the lingerie range or that they were not valued in the same way as “regular” size patrons by the stores.
We have a strongly held belief that all women, regardless of their size, are beautiful and deserve the same access to beautiful apparel.
Sourcing a wide range is not always easy but we have gone out of our way to cater for all sizes. Not only that, but we feel that customer care should form a major part of the service provided. To that end, we are always happy to discuss our client’s needs and help them in making a decision on what to buy, via our website. After sales support, assistance with choosing the correct size garment and an inclusive and helpful manner are of optimum importance to us to ensure that clients feel satisfied and valued.

7. Tell us more about your services that you provide to your clients?
At Cuddles and Curves Lingerie, we provide the following:

• Private and secure environment for purchasing lingerie from home
• Large size range from 6 to 26 (Australian sizes)
• Huge range of beautiful, sexy, erotic and pretty lingerie to suit all tastes
• Sizing and style advice via email and/or telephone
• Subscription only service for our regular ‘What’s New’ newsletters
• Range of payment methods including Paypal, Mastercard, Visa, American Express and Bank transfer

8. Tell us about your process for working with clients?
At cuddlesandcurves.com.au our first contact with most customers is when we receive an order from them. There may be questions about sizing or delivery and we are more than happy to answer any queries. Orders are then shipped as quickly as possible to the customer who may then wish to sign up for our email ‘What’s New?’ newsletters.

9. What advice can you offer to people who are just discovering CUDDLES AND CURVES?
There is no substitute for communication. If any potential clients seeking any of our services cannot find an answer to all their question on our website, they are very welcome to email or telephone us with their questions or for advice. We are here to provide excellent service and we strive to do exactly that through friendly, personal service. We are only too happy to answer any questions. So our advice is, “please get in contact”.

10. Is there a model that you would recommend?
“This babydoll is one of my favourite styles because it’s flattering for women of all sizes. It comes in regular and plus size and is available in Black, White or Orchid (purple). I love the combination of pretty and elegant top and sleeves with the sexy sheer skirt. It’s also a great style that can be purchased as a gift.”

Feng Shui and Aboriginal Views on Mirrors

Tags

aboriginal feng shui, creating a corridor, danger of mirrors, double mirrors, feng shui for business, home, lifestyle, mirrors facing each other, mirrors in business, roseline deleu feng shui master, view to infinity

While I spent some time in remote aboriginal Australia (NT), my indigenous friends laughed when I covered the mirror in the bedroom. I avoided upsetting them by moving some furniture out of where I slept, while on the other hand I needed the best sleep possible.

They looked at my towel covering the mirror and giggled: “You do like the oldies here; you don’t like mirrors when you sleep.”

Two mirrors facing each other are only suggested in Chinese Feng Shui to create a corridor of “infinity” for a business entry. This is very Yang – it also triggers the eye and the subconscious giving the impression that when clients enter a building, more people seem to enter as they see their reflection moving in the facing mirrors.

In our bedrooms, this is NOT the case! We need Yin Feng Shui to rest peacefully, so the less mirror, the better!

As I am reading many books for the moment on Aboriginal culture and lore, I came across Aboriginal rituals and beliefs that confirmed similar views about mirrors, water and reflective ponds. As we know in Feng Shui, ponds, water reflection and mirrors are considered equivalent from a symbolic and an energy point of view.

I give you here an excerpt of one of the books I have been reading. Even though this little paragraph talks about old rituals (before white men), you will get to realise that naturally, reflections are important and believe to be dangerous in some case. That might get you reflect upon what surrounds you.

“… – When doing some cursing rituals, the witch doctor must be careful of doing this correctly. The sun or the moon must be behind him and he had to be certain that there was no waterhole in front. If there were, he might be caught himself by the magic rebounding from the water. – …” – Excerpt of ‘Wurley & Wommera ‘by Janet Mathews

To sleep well – start with common sense… and you will feel what disturbs your sleep, a sad picture, a mirror, two mirrors facing each other, a broken item, the photo of a dead tree?

Remember – Mirrors are often gateways to Spirits and some of those Spirits are not always the kind ones 🙂 !

Be wise. Look at your environment with positive eyes and adapt your decor accordingly.
A good Feng Shui bedroom is harmonious, decorated soft colours inspiring peace and rest. The less mirror the better.

The 5 transformations or the 5 Elements Theory – Creative Cycle

Tags

constructive cycle, examples of wood element, feng shui master, roseline deleu, the 5 transformations, water element, wood element

Along with the Yin and the Yang, the five elements are an additional way of analysing and harmonising the Chi. Chi can therefore be divided into: wood, fire, earth, metal and water.

These properties and essences characterise all matter. They can be associated with colours, seasons, shapes, directions, planets, textures, body organs and so on…

Creative cycle

• Fire produces Earth (ash)
• Earth creates Metal (minerals)
• Metal produces Water (although water rusts metal, water droplets also form on the outside of a metal cup when holding cold liquid)
• Water provides for Wood
• Wood feeds Fire.

 Fig. 1 – Creative cycle

Fig 2 – Illustrating “Water feeds Wood”

Here we see the colour scheme of “Water feeds Wood”, dark blue for the Water element… Green and Light Blue for the Wood as well as the colour of this paper bark tree trunk, which means that paper, papyrus are also considered as the Wood element in your decor (textures).

A picture like this could decorate your home except in following cases:
NEVER put this sort of picture with Water:
– behind your back where you study or where you work
– in your sector # 2 (relationship)
– in your master bedroom (marriage)
BECAUSE in those cases, Water creates a lack of stability behind your back, lack of stability in your Relationship & Marriage.

The Colours of Wood

Tags

feng shui master, Feng Shui Master Roseline Deleu, feng shui schools, nature, shades of Wood, the 5 transformations in Feng Shui, Wood element in Feng Shui

This is the last post of the series on the 5 Elements… After the Colours of the Earth, Water, Fire and Metal… here are finishes and colours of Wood.

The presence of each element in every room brings harmony while the most predominant presence in that room should be corresponding to the Element of the sector your room is located (see Ba Gua grid).

For the Wood areas, sectors 3 and 4, the predominant colour or decor should be Green. A touch of Water is also essential (Water feeds Wood).

Wood is often represented by green and in some Feng Shui schools also by the colour light blue (symbolising the blue sky above).

It also includes the Wood finish, the decor of columns, vertical lines, cylinders (they symbolise the trunk of trees)

Plants are WOOD – alive they need WATER to survive and grow

The WOOD tones are usually: all shades of GREEN and in some cases, some consultants will also recommend light blue.

Think of this when decorate your rooms next!
