Too dangerous to help by email

depression, feng shui, suicidal, tips

I often receive emails from readers asking for Feng Shui tips. As an answer for them, I  write a post on this blog for all of you so you all learn.

Unfortunately, there are times where I cannot help, when things are too challenging and in this example below, you can read through the lines that this person is in a very difficult situation.
The best is to suggest her to see a professional counselor as an email or a post, in this case, will never replace professional guidance and I’m sure that you can read here that she needs it.

Email received early April 2017
“I needed to run from my mother as far as I could as well as from my sister. I am still at her house I entrenched in her misery about my life because I couldn’t bring myself to wash her away. I walked out this afternoon and but back in again, it is destroying me and my dog. I wish I had left. 
I cannot believe how awful a place  and people can make you feel or do destructive things to yourself. I thought going to stay with mother would be protective… I but I was totally wrong. I’ve lost all self confidence and am destructive in my thinking to myself, I can’t believe it.  In reality have I  known this deep down and therefore left years ago to a productive life. Unsure how to fix myself out of it. I left my life behind five months ago and nothing but misery and self doubt since coming here. – N.N.

A Feng Shui consultant does look at the psychology of the home but will never replace the help for the person that she will seek with a professional medical doctor, psychologist or psychiatrist.

Always follow common sense.

Test your Feng Shui Bed Placement

Dear Roseline, Since moving the bed what I thought was a better fengshui position, less good came… I believed fengshui bed position would do so much good? Oh dear 😦 – A.N.

Dear Reader,

I very seldom suggest clients or readers about bed directions calculations, simply because people are then stuck onto one belief rather than doing their own experiences and be empowered to find out by themselves.

In your case, you probably calculated your direction based on another school of Feng Shui, following another master. Everything happens for a reason, this time, it was for you to get empowered and turn your bed around again.

I always suggest to everyone to test their directions for one week at the time (maximum), the results are shown usually within a couple of days. You monitor and write down what has happened during that week and when you had the best week, this is your best direction.

Yes, indeed, either you move your bed around your room or you simply move the orientation your bed without moving the furniture – which can be fun sometimes 🙂

Keep moving till you monitor your best direction and things will settle.

Best regards,

Too independent Girl

Tags

This example of pink bedroom for a girl has been taken in a furniture shop. It inspired me to write you this little post with a few warnings as the little girl who would live there could well be too independent too soon!

1. Firstly, avoid double beds until late teenager years! A child would feel lost in a large bed like this and could feel the need to become too independent too young feeling heavy responsibilities in life – leading then to potential lost of self-confidence.
2. A single bed would ideally be placed in a corner, so the child will have the support from both walls.
3. The frames illustrated in this photo show a single girl playing on her own. Does your child feel lonely? Not very social? Instead decorate with photos of smiling and happy children.
4. The corner of the draws is a poison arrow that is sending uncomfortable Sha Chi energy to the sleeper (who actually will always sleep poorly in those conditions).
5. Decor on top of the draws are much too adult and too heavy for a girl’s bedroom and would only collect dust.

Top Feng Shui tip – when decorating your child’s bedroom, bend your knees and look from your child’s eyes height to feel how the decor could affect your little one.

Enjoy your Feng Shui experiences! 🙂

Relationship challenged

Tags

Dear Roseline,

Sorry to say but the relationship with my husband is rather challenging. He is impatient with our 3 y.o. son who is very stubborn (like his dad and myself) so as a matter of fact our couple is suffering. I can’t seem to speak kindly, feeling too tense; on top of that, my husband wants to control me (and everything) non-stop and does nothing.
Would you have some Feng Shui tips for us all? For the moment the rivalry between our son and his dad has the child clinging to me constantly.
Thank you so much – A.X.

It is essential to have all frames at the same level – BUT here above, the example translates into two couples divorcing: a woman looks away, the man on the right too, while the couple in the middle are looking at each other – the middle couple are the two lovers who are together now!

Dear A.X.,

A few suggestions as I don’t have many of your personal details:

1. I hope that your 3 y.o. sleeps in his bedroom and not in your marital bed
2. Place a photo of the 3 of you on his bedside table at your child’s eyes height
3. Display a recent happy and smiling photo of your couple somewhere in your apartment and/or in your master bedroom (photo without the element of water – so no lake, no ocean, no river etc)
4. Are all your frames hanging at the same height?  Indeed, in your case it is essential – because having one on top of the other or one higher that the other would translate into having one of you in the couple being ‘above’ the other… so in other words: ‘controlling’
5. Do you have equal access to both (each) side of your marital bed? If bed is stuck in a corner and only one is accessible then only one person in the couple has a say the other one not.

Feng Shui Yours,

Place Grid on L shaped plan

Many readers have plans more complex than just a simple rectangle. Today, let’s see how you can place the Feng Shui Magic Square (grid) onto a “L” shaped plan following the Black Hat Feng Shui School principles. For the Black Hat school, your front door corresponds to the Chi Kou (mouth of the Chi) – no matter where you are in the world, your organs will always be placed at the same spot inside your body – hence why for the Black Hat placement the Chi Kou = your entry will always be in one of the 8 – 1 – 6 areas.

How to proceed and place the Ba Gua or Magic Square grid can be found in my E-book “Your First Easy Steps to Feng Shui” an easy to follow book filled with plenty of examples and tips.

This unit has 2 grids, the red one is the first one where Chi reaches. It is the principal grid. Second grid is the orange grid. Thus you have here 2 possibilities to adjust Feng Shui around your home, this is great!

Balconies are not included as they are outside the unit walls. They can be considered like your jacket pocket and can contain lots of interesting goodies 😉 … likewise on our balconies, we can add flowers and keep our entertaining areas clean and neat which all will contribute to activate Chi.

Feng Shui Yours,

Feng Shui Steps

House number 2

Tags

apartment, birds, consultation, feng shui, feng shui master, house number 2, marriage, numbers, relationship, roseline deleu

The apartment or house numbers ‘7’ ,  ‘3’ , ‘8’ and ‘9’ have been posted recently and you can either click on blue highlighted links or scroll under this post. Today let’s have a look at the number ‘2’.

The numbers of our houses or apartments are believed to influence our lives at least to a certain extend.

Illustration of this article shows a house number  ’884’ which when we add  8+8+4 = 20 -> 2+0 = 2. The 884 number also resonates with numbers 8 and 4 that will be important to read in my previous and next posts.

This house number is nicely decorated with birds and two of them look in the same direction which is very auspicious for the couple living in that house. The reader who sent me this photo told me that the birds are giving her good news – what an amazing intent! Well done !

Of course there is much more than a simple number to influence your life!

Two is an balanced number in Feng Shui and symbolizes duality, relationships, marriage, couple, partnerships. Living in an ‘2’ house, to a several digits number adding to ‘2’ or a house number containing ‘2’ in the digits, has a positive influence on the growth and insights of the relationships of its inhabitants.

Buying or living in a ‘2’ house could well be THE place where you (finally) meet someone special, rekindle your relationship or simply find your inner balance between your feminine and masculine sides.

For some of you, living in a ‘2’ is an excellent home for 2 people who are going to share space as roommates, lovers or as wife and husband. You will be tuned into the energies and feelings of the others with whom you share your home. Living in a 2 home you will have a strong desire for peace and harmony through diplomacy. You will often find yourself standing back and tuning into situations rather than advancing your point of view. You will find that you can fully and lovingly understand the perspectives of others. In a ‘2 ‘ home you will begin to develop a sensitivity to subtle energies of nature and music and even the auric fields of others. Perfect home to explore and develop your psychic and intuitive abilities. Excellent home for a marriage or partnership to grow.

All this and more can happen as long as your sector ‘2’ in your garden and inside your home – of course – carry the energies of the Earth element!

May this articles inspire you towards positive outcomes in your lives.

House #3

In my last post, I mentioned a few insights on number ‘8’ houses. Today, let’s have a look at the number ‘3’. House numbers are believed to be influencing our lives. Illustrations of this article show a house number 93 which when we add 9+3 = 12 -> 1+2 =3.

Of course there is much more than a simple number to influence your life!

Three is an auspicious number in Feng Shui and symbolizes the past, respect, health and family.
Thus, it looks like living in an ‘3’ house, to a several digits number adding to ‘3’ or a house number containing ‘3’ in the digits, has a positive influence on its inhabitants. Buying or living in a ‘3’ house is known as being a place where inhabitants will be solving things from the past, family or/and health.

People say that most of the health challenges come from emotional imbalance – thus, the way that you managed your emotions in the past during challenging events. Living in a ‘3’ house will help you review it all and encourage you to reconsider a few points within your today understanding.

When realising that in any case, it is no-body else’s fault and that blaming is way out of fashion – you will make steps towards wisdom, personal researches and new choices that will take you to the path of perfect health, appreciating your past and family they way they are rather that the way you’d like them to be. In a ‘3’ house, you start respecting yourself and take responsibility for your actions.

The way to perfect health is following doctor’s orders and combining them with good food, sport, positive attitude + with a good Feng Shui House Entry as well as the correct position of your bed.

The example of this ’93’ house is actually all what you’d like to avoid as this entry and home design is only leading struggle to the inhabitants!    😦  Let’s see what you should avoid!

This ‘3’, home illustrated here will never give good results as a ‘3’ could do! – WHY?
Well, start looking from the front door… Stand in the entry and look out – what do you see?

• a path ‘cut’ on an angle instead of a solid and curved that should be best to lead to the front door
• the statue on the floor next to the door seems representing a stressed person with arms and legs crossed
• when looking out, we see the slope going down to the garage, so Chi goes first down… how can it reach the entry door?
• front door glass panels are showing down and right again towards the garage slope
• this house is located in a cul-de-sac where there is no exit for the Chi -> unfortunately all inhabitants of the cul-de-sac will be worrying and res-sassing their same old thoughts and same old ideas all the time
• windows are all different dimensions (no harmony) which could symbolise each time another outlook on life and perhaps a lot of mind changing
• why designing a narrow balcony where no-one will ever go above the garage to breathe the exhaust fumes? This unused balcony costs a lot of money and doesn’t add anything to the house.

Ideally, BEFORE building, call a reputable Feng Shui consultant who has experienced many building designs. Is it is a worth while investment, as you will be living in your new home for many years to come.

If the house is already built, it is never too late… as I have experienced so many suggestions for you to live better. Which means that investing in a Feng Shui consultation could well be a life changing experience!    🙂  ->  Good news!

I consult and I train Feng Shui Practitioners world wide. I run individual classes that are real Journeys with your Master. I’d love to count you among my practitioners in your country. Contact me and let’s organise this soon together.

I finally did it!

As usual, I was tempted to put it off (again and again) because it was never ‘the right time’. I was quite stressed just finishing my work contract and plenty of other things at hand!
Now,  I am so proud and happy that I completed the 5 day Training to become a Feng Shui Practitioner, with Roseline Deleu.

I met Roseline in February 2008 and since May of that special year I wished to follow her course. So it was long overdue. Finally we decided to go ahead.

Roseline came and we “Feng Shui-ed” my place as this is part of the teaching (big enjoyable bonus!!!). Yes – We moved furniture around. Yes – We de-cluttered draws, wardrobe and book shelves. This is the active part of the Feng Shui. However, we went much deeper into the reality of this art of placement!

Roseline often spoke and taught about the Nature elements, about the power of them working together in harmony… or not working in harmony   😦
She had me thinking and observing Nature and its amazing work.

Roseline asked off me repeatedly to reflect on: “what does one element to the other”.
– What happens if there is too much of one element when supposed to work along with another? (e.g. wood with water)
– What happens if there is too little of an element or a missing element? (e.g. wood with water)
Yes – Feng Shui is much more than just de-cluttering and moving furniture. In fact; de-cluttering and moving furniture is THE RESULT of Feng Shui understanding and practice.

When finally understanding what clutter and placement does to the energy around you, what clutter and placement does to your own energy; you want/need to de-clutter.

Much is said and written about what ingesting good or bad food does to your body and mind, much also is said about getting rid of people with low energy to keep up yours.
Little these days is said on what the environment YOU CREATE around you is doing to your mind, soul and body.
Yet this is something you alone can change for yourself; and this is Feng Shui, this positive movement and environment that you create is Feng Shui.

I will go to more into details in a few other articles to come; right now I only want to share with you a few of the first results of this amazing 5 day course:
-My place looks great and it feels really good to be here and so do I
-My wardrobe is looking colourful and quite attractive (see picture)
-I was stressed, yet, after the day 3, I could wake up in the morning around 3 or 4 am and fall asleep again easily (I stress very much at the end of a work contract hoping all of my students are able to finalise their course and get a job, I usually then wake up early and can’t find my sleep again)
-I shed 3 kg (still a lot to let go off )
-I am serene and happy again
-None-the-less, we had so much laughter and beautiful experiences
(see short video clip below).

If this article comes up on Roseline’s Blog it means that I have understood what Roseline is teaching and I am sooooooo grateful to have met her and finally taken and completed her five day course.
I will even say: I wish I had done it sooner! So, if you are thinking of doing it, my advice to you is: Go, Do, Have fun and create for yourself a much easier life.

A bit of humour with Feng Shui makes it easier to get! 

This example shows a bedroom layout in which you’d really be challenged to meet the right man. Yes, this room would belong to a spinster or a single woman with problems – or eventually a master bedroom of a couple where the poor husband would not have much to say in the relationship. Let’s have a look at the hints here:

1. The bed is centered in the middle of the wall, which is usually ‘good feng shui’ – yes, but… it doesn’t seemed balanced as on one side you have a window partially covered by the pillows and on the other side two frames – none of this layout would bring equilibrium into a couple.
2. Bed side tables and lamps are similar on both sides, which is usually ‘good feng shui’ – yes but… one of the light bulb is broken – so, no light, no energy is attracted on that side of the bed!
3. Pink is beautiful and symbolises Love – yes, but… when the decor of your room is excessively feminine or too girly, it is recommended to add a touch of ‘male’ or ‘adult’ decor/colours/touch in there.
4. The window cools down that side of the bed(head), while we really would like to manifest a warm and loving relationship!

Thus, we changed the bed and placed it on the other wall, where there is no window. We put a new light bulb in the lamp and changed the photos of the two little frames. One of the bedside tables (male side) is now empty and you are symbolically now ready to welcome a man into your life – not specifically straight away in your bed… one step at the time! 

Would you have one of those ‘Stay-out-Man-Bedroom’ and you are keen to meeting someone nice?… Send me a photo by email and I’ll answer with some suggestions in one of the upcoming blog posts.

Before and After photos of Entry

Tags

entry, feng shui, feng shui for happiness, feng shui master, feng shui steps, foyer, front door, good entry is essential, reorganising your home, roseline deleu, shoes in feng shui, smell, the importance of an entry, toys

 

BEFORE – please note following Feng Shui challenges:
a) The shiny tiled Compass is hidden by a dull mat
-> lack of direction in life
b) The artificial (silk) flower arrangement is the first we see as soon as we open the door
-> what is it in the resident’s lives that is a bit too artificial?
c) The metal shelve hosts eclectic items and clothes
-> too many different items to start a good day with a clear mind   😦
d) A few dried (dead) flowers sadly collecting dust in a glass pot on the floor
-> nothing ‘dead’ in the entry please, we need ‘life’ in an entry so that Chi can carry it with its flow around the whole house! Also, avoid small items on the floor level, they are down, you look down sadly   😦
e) Shoes near the entry… preferably in a closed in cupboard in the garage because on an open shelve in your entry foyer they may emanate a subtle smell – and after I’m sure that  worn shoes are not your favourite decoration   😀

 

AFTER –  note the changes:
a) The shiny tiled compass is now happily shining with the sunlight and an outdoor mat is doing a great job.
b) The artificial flower arrangement is now at the back of the entry door so it is no more the first thing you see when you enter.
c) A second shelve is across the first one, they now both host precious and fun objects that are loved by the grand kids when they visit. They also put a smile and bring joy into the grand parents lives when they come home.

RESULTS –  After those easy changes, the occupants soon felt calmer and peaceful, better organised and their days were filled with more laughter and smiles. After all… Happiness is priceless isn’t it!  🙂
