FENG SHUI and the Southwest

The Southwest of your home is the universal area relating to the female, to the mother of the home and to Love and Relationships.

Regardless of your Kua number and whether you are an East or a West Group person, if you are the matriarch of the home this area is important.  If you are single and looking for love this area can be enhanced to positively invite love into your life.

If you are a West group person this area will naturally be one of your auspicious locations.  If you are an East group person it will be one of your inauspicious locations however as the mother of the home you can still enhance it to your positive benefit.

It is important that this area is not missing or houses inauspicious elements such as the kitchen or the bathroom.  One solution to this issue is to enhance the Southwest of the living area and/or, in the case of seeking love, the master bedroom. 

Enhancing the Southwest of your home as a whole is enhancing the ‘Big Tai Chi’ and enhancing individual rooms is the ‘Small Tai Chi.’ The small tai chi can be enhanced when you have a missing corner, when you have a ‘poison arrow’ pointing directly towards the area you want to enhance or when there is a kitchen, toilet or storeroom in the way.  None of these areas should be enhanced in any way as it will cause more negative than positive results.

The Southwest is an Earth element area and benefits from the presence of crystals, pebbles and light.  Having a window in the Southwest with a faceted crystal displayed is a wonderful way of inviting positive Yang Chi Energy into the space. 

Fire creates Earth in the Five Elements and it is for this reason that light in the form of lamps, candles and the natural sunlight is so important.  The ultimate element to display in this corner is a crystal chandelier which incorporates the best of Fire (light) and Earth (crystals.)  The chandelier can be traditional or modern, large or small the important thing is to ensure it is the right size for the space.  Too large and it will ‘burn’ any good fortune created, too small and it will be ineffective.

Decorating the area in the fire colours of red, orange or bright yellow is also auspicious.  One thing to remember is to enhance any area in keeping with your likes, if you are displaying something you do not have an affinity with it will be fruitless because it is not who you are.

A fundamental requirement in Feng Shui is to keep all areas clean, bright and clutter-free.  If you are enhancing an area for a specific result this becomes even more important.  It allows positive, fresh Chi to permeate the area bringing with it positive results.
