Your Home is a Place for Daydreams

The House allows one to dream in Peace
– Gaston Bachelard, philosopher –

The dwelling collects images, so memory and imagination become fused with the physical space on a daily basis.

With time, these physical spaces become memory and imagination too. When we move house or apartment, our former dwelling becomes a memory and not a physical space to us. First we live in a dwelling then it becomes indwelling within us.

When traditional people apprehend gods and nature spirits in specific locales, they are merely doing the same thing on a larger scale and with the natural environment. They are at home in nature in a way most of us are not.

Place is not passive. It interacts with our consciousness in a dynamic way. It contains its own memory of events and its own mythic nature, its Genius Loci or Spirit of Place which may not be visible and can be apprehended by the human and animal interloper in the appropriate mental state.

The bringing of information into the focus of conscious awareness is a state-specific activity.

Forms, textures, smells, sounds or light of a particular place can trigger associations within us that another place would not. It can bring things to the fore, into awareness, that were until then existing in the unconscious mind.

Place can therefore illuminate us and can provoke mythic imaginings within us.

When we let this rich relationship with the environment decline into extinction, we become lost. We then literally cease to be fully human in the true sense of that work which comes to us via the Old Latin hemo meaning earthborn; that will inevitably translate into physical implications for our species.

New Year approaching, it is perfect timing to look at your dwelling and its decor then discard objects and memories you no longer need.

Who were you 2 years ago?

Who were you 2 years ago and who are you today?
Who would you like to become in 3 or 6 months time?

How long have you been living in your home? Did you move recently? Two years ago? Ten years have past… or have you been in the same house for more than twenty years? How has your life changed in all this time?

Originally from Europe, I see my friends and family abroad only every 3 years. They have not changed much in the past 15 years. Many are still living in the same house, going every day to the same job, interact with the same friends and even go on holidays to the same place than when I was still living there before 1998.

My time in Australia changed me heaps. When I look at my 15 year old pictures, today it looks like I feel and look younger today! I have evolved and became the person I could have never even imagine while living back in Europe. How is this possible?

My love of adventure, newness, change and Feng Shui are the keys. I live my Feng Shui passion, have a balanced life between family and work and I am happy. I truly believe that people are lucky here in Australia, the country is large and infinite landscapes open minds to opportunities and change. I probably moved houses 17 times in the last 15 years.

I agree with you that, moving house is a very stressful situation—quoted as high as changing job, getting married or losing a family member. Moving often though, allows you to go through your belongings and keeping them to the minimum. Whatever you have not been using for the past 12 months, you forgot about. How many of you still have unpacked boxes that the removalists or yourselves have stuck in the garage?

Late 1997, I migrated and arrived in Canberra. Early 1998, I gave my first Feng Shui lecture, started teaching evening courses and Alanna Moore offered me a column in her fantastic ‘Geomantica’ newsletter.
Since 2001, I have been recognised internationally as one of the top Feng Shui masters in Australia. Today, in 2013, I continue to embrace my Feng Shui life and live it on a daily basis. I am for the moment continuing my in-depth researches combining Feng Shui of the land with the Australian Traditional Owners, our indigenous wise elders in remote areas of our Northern Territory (NT-Australia).

Where and who am I going to be in two years time?
I don’t know yet.

Is this article triggering you? Are you ready to move forward and change? Today, I’d like to encourage you to change 3 (reasonable) things and do something that you never dared before (for the highest good of all). Be ready for a better life.

What are you going to change about you today?
