Whenever you feel threatened in life, especially since you realised that it has been happening ever since you moved into that new home… It may be a good idea to check how and where your home is located!

             

In Chinese Feng Shui what is called a “Poison arrow” could well be what is making you uncomfortable. That “poison arrow” comes in many different ways, for example: a tall tree or line of trees right in line with your front door, a “T” junction of streets, protruding corner, a hospital or a cemetery  across the street and many other Sha Chi (rapid or negative Chi) that is coming towards you!

In Chinese Feng Shui, people use a Ba Gua, an octagonal protection decorated by I Ching lines and often with a mirror in the middle. This Ba Gua is said to deflect negative energy and protects your home. It is important that the Ba Gua remains outdoors. So its best placement is often above the front door, on the fly screen above your head height or above a window if there is a poison arrow aiming at it.

I recently took a few photos to illustrate what Ba Gua may look like. And for those of you who can’t find one in their local shop… make your own, it is often very powerful because you add your strong intent of protection into yours.

This special Ba Gua was located above a Car Repairer in Thailand

Whichever protection you will choose, depending on your culture, they all seem to be working amazingly!

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

A Career Boost the Feng Shui Way

Tags

FEED BACK STORY from one of my students… The last few years have proved ‘trying’ in my career. I knew I had come off my path, but despite much soul searching, personal development and career planning, I just seemed to be stuck. My current work environment was not allowing me to display my strengths and was not holding my interest. Despite applying for other positions within and outside the office, nothing was coming my way – there appeared to be no way out!

So I decided to make the best of it and re-train in my own time for something that I really wanted to do.  I had been tossing up for some time between Coaching and Interior Design incorporating Feng Shui. I wanted to do both but felt that I had to concentrate on one at a time, especially as it had to be done in my spare time to begin with. Interior Design won out and I completed a Diploma qualification.

At the beginning of 2008, I decided that some Feng Shui enhancements were required in my career sector to help boost my Interior Design business along. I moved some things around in sector one of my home and added some red candles to my sector nine. It was at about this time that I booked into the Feng Shui practitioner course with Roseline, to be conducted later that year.

Within a couple of weeks of making these changes, my workplace asked me to lead a new project organizing the corporate coaching strategy. It was expected to take 3 – 6 months to complete the project, at which point I was to return to my existing role. I was very excited at this unexpected development, so I accepted the new challenge on the spot. I realized within the first week that I was back on my path and that I needed to secure this position permanently, even though a permanent position did not exist as yet. At the end of my third week of this new role, I completed the Feng Shui practitioner course with Roseline. What an experience!

The first day of the training was held at my home. I realized very quickly that there were a few key concepts that I had not fully understood from all my reading as I watched Roseline point out the Feng Shui changes required in every room of my home. Then the moving started and rooms were turned upside down as furniture was re-positioned and changes made. I felt like I had been through a whirlwind. I was unsettled, unnerved and feeling like my energy was swirling. By the end of the day my house was in complete disarray and I was shattered. I realized that I still had a lot to learn let alone a lot to move to get the house back in order.

Roseline had commented that many of the changes made in my home were aimed at strengthening the “helpful people” sector of my home and specific rooms. The next couple of days training consolidated key concepts and really helped me to clarify where to from here. With every spare minute over the following couple of weeks, I made many more changes in line with my new knowledge. Sector 6 certainly felt better than it ever had since I moved in. This training had a profound impact on me and I had a number of monumental “aha” moments.

Then the miracle happened. Despite huge budget cuts and staffing freezes I was transferred permanently to the newly created coaching role in my workplace. I was the last person to be transferred in or out before the freeze was announced. Important staff members in my and other organizations have gone out of their way to assist me to make this happen without being asked! Other colleagues were asking me how I managed to pull off such a coo under such restrictive conditions.

I feel truly blessed to have this new opportunity in my workplace and to have experienced the magic of Feng Shui so dramatically first hand. I am more motivated to incorporate my Feng Shui knowledge into the interior design business I am building in my spare time and look forward to helping others transform their world with these concepts. I would never have thought that the two fields that I wanted to pursue would both come to me at the same time. I have come to realize that there are definite synergies between these two fields and have worked out how to incorporate both over time into my daily work. I am well and truly back on my path.

Thank you Roseline! – Sue (Australia)

A missing area on your Feng Shui Grid ? There is always a solution!

Dear Roseline,  I am hoping you can help me. In fact I’m sure you can!  First I must say how much I love your newsletters and Facebook status updates, they are so inspiring and knowledgeable, thank you.

The NW direction corresponds in the Black Hat School of Feng Shui to the sector ‘6’ Helpful People & Travels – here represented in the white colour (bottom right of the square aligning your entry to 8-1-6)

I am writing as I have discovered the home I have been living in for almost a year is missing its NW corner. What currently occupies the NW is empty space. A backyard – and an unlandscaped one at that!

I have been Googling and am confused! I’m not sure what the solution or the remedy is. I have read so many different and conflicting things. Obviously the best option is to fill it, however with the design of the house and also cost, we aren’t keen on extending our already quite large house to fill this space.

What is needed to help resolve this issue? A red ribbon in that corner? A horse? A mirror? A light? I’ve read so many different things. I am also quite concerned as my partner is having troubles and may have to LEAVE us. I have three young children, very young, so of course naturally I do not want the head of our family leaving.

Are you able to help me?

My dearest reader, I will answer to you as wisely as possible and give you some insights on how to balance your grid challenge.

1. I follow the Black Hat School of Feng Shui that uses the static grid directions, means for us, the entry is the most important point, it is where Chi enters. You align the side 8-1-6 on the side of your house and your door will be in one of these areas.

2. From what I understand your sector ‘6’ is missing, this means that you might not benefit of as many travels as you’d like or give and receive as much help as you’d need.

3. To rebalance this in your life… you need to add a ‘heavy object’ in your garden

A Heavy Object placed at the intersection of the missing walls will anchor the energies.

a) Since your ‘6’ is in your un-landscaped garden, could you put a large pot with a healthy plant at the intersection of the missing walls (that would complete your Magic Square)?
b) I’d recommend you to have a close look at each sector ‘6’ of your main rooms. Yes, indeed, place this grid onto each room aligning the door you use the most onto 8-1-6. What is in each sector ‘6’ of each of those rooms? It is important that they are each de-cluttered, that lights blubs are in working order, that objects on display are in good condition and make you happy.

As you do not explain what kind of ‘trouble’ your husband is going through for the moment, I can only suggest you to place a lovely photo of you two and a photo of the 5 of you together (I imagnie that you’d have one) next to a vase with fresh flowers. Take care of the flowers regularly.

Let me know how you go. Improvement can happen fast, so remember to place your good intents when you follow what I suggest. Kind regards,

Roseline Deleu, international Feng Shui Master and Consultant http://www.fengshuisteps.com/books_products.html

Where are my LOVE and WEALTH sectors in my Home?

Let’s make this easy, follow my “Easy Feng Shui Steps” and find out where your life sectors are represented in your home.

Each individually numbered square of the Ba Gua (Magic Square) grid is associated with a specific area of your life and is called a ‘sector’. Divide your house plan, aligning first the ‘8-1-6’ numbered edge of the grid along with the main entrance or front door of your home/office/land area; then divide it into 9 equal sections without worrying about internal walls. One room can overlap 2 sections or maybe parts of a few rooms can be present in one sector only.

The Black hat School of Feng Shui applies the theory of the ‘static directions’. No matter what direction is showing on the compass, ‘South’ is always regarded as sector 9 of the house. The Ba Gua grid is divided up and corresponds to 9 different aspects of your life as shown in the diagram (Fig.1).

Fig. 1 – The 9 sectors of your house relating to 9 aspects of your life.
Align 8-1-6 with your front entry.
MONEY is the light blue colour corresponding to area ‘4’
LOVE and RELATIONSHIPS is the yellow colour corresponging to area ‘2’

When you place the grid onto your house, the Chi Kou (the mouth of the Chi, where the energy enters) is your main entrance (front door).  Place the grid on your block of land, your Chi Kou is in most cases the driveway, it will either be in sector 8, 1 or 6 each time, this means that your block of land could probably have another grid than your home itself.

There are 5 easy steps to help you with grid placement:

1. Design your plan to scale
2. Draw a straight line on the front of the house that is in alignment with the main entry door.
3. Follow up with lines from the right and left boundary walls of the plan.
4. Close up the rectangle/box with a line parallel to the base line (where your entry sits) to from the grid.
5. Now divide your rectangle into 9 equal parts (don’t worry about the internal walls.

Some of you might have non-rectangular premises, this is normal – some of you even might have two or three floors – to check if you did the correct grid design, email me your exercise through my website http://www.fengshuisteps.com/join_mailing_list.html

Knives put away + Old Pictures discarded = Peace at Home!

I’m so excited about the results of what I’ve done, after reading and implementing your basic book “Your First Easy Steps to Feng Shui”, Roseline, that I want to share!

I read the book over and over and at the same time I started to make some changes around the house. First step was of course ‘de-cluttering’.

My lounge/dining are in areas 6,7 & 2 (according to my grid placement) were full of my children’s photograph & memorabilia since they were little… so I started taking them out including photos of my late husband, leaving just a few new ones of my children today, and put more photos of myself instead. I thought to myself: “Its about time that I dominate my life”. For so long, I felt that the kids (3) were dominating my life since they were growing up and they became over powering, especially my 2 young teen girls. Too much energy flowing around the house, arguments, disagreements, aggressiveness, etc. You know what is like when you have teenagers in the house, it’s mad most of the time. I’ve arranged the furniture in the lounge which is now a bit spacious and welcoming. In the kitchen, which is partly on area 9, I have 3 sets of knives on blocks which were out on display, so I put them in the cupboard. I also hung a Ba Gua mirror outside my front door, although it’s not directly facing the light pole in front of my driveway, I thought, too much bad energy was coming from there as well.

Surprisingly, if not coincidental, my life with the kids have changed a lot better since I’ve done these cures. My two girls attitude, especially the young one which has just turned 18 has mellowed down a lot. They are less aggressive, less quarrels or nothing at all, they are now sober, I should say and we can discuss matters without yelling or fighting! They are behaving like great adults. Less bad energy flowing here now I can admit!

I’m really happy that I’ve read the book and adopted the cures just on time for a real change. Thanks Roseline! – Ophelia

Use of Protective Ba Gua

Tags

ba gua, feng shui, Feng Shui Concept, feng shui master, feng shui steps, roseline deleu

One of my Feng Shui students visited Thailand a few months ago. She did take a couple of shots of this huge Ba Gua.

Let me share some thoughts about its use…

A Ba Gua (an 8 sided protective ornament decorated with I Ching lines) is a very powerful tool in Feng Shui and has to be used outdoors only. It protects and also deflects bad energies.

In this case, this building position is at the poison arrow intersection of 5 main roads.

My personal impression is that the Ba Gua protected indeed the building (as well as the protecting rail did) BUT it deflected the energy into the road intersection and therefore encouraged accidents!

To place your own and personal Ba Gua, display it preferably above your door or where a poison arrow would threathened your building. When you hang it, place the intent of LOVE and PROTECTION rather than fear!

Always place good intents when adjusting Feng Shui! International Feng Shui Master Roseline Deleu http://www.fengshuisteps.com
