Feng Shui and Missing Corners-Health and Family


The Eight Aspirations of Feng Shui are Career (north), Education and Study (northeast), Health and Longevity (east), Wealth (southeast), Fame and Recognition (south), Love and Relationships (southwest), Family (west) and Heaven and Mentor (northwest.)

When a location (corner) relating to an aspiration important to you is missing in the Big Tai Chi of your property the first thing to establish is whether this same location is missing in the Small Tai Chi of your living space.  When the locations are missing in both the Big and the Small Tai Chi it will prove difficult for you to achieve your desires.

A loving family and a long and healthy life are two of the most sought after desires in Feng Shui practice.  Financial wealth may have a strong pull on the emotions but without your health or someone to share your life, it will be lacking the positive energy necessary to create a happy and fulfilling existence.

West and East
Looking at the Big Tai Chi of your property, and confirming there is a missing corner in the west of your home will make it difficult for you to have children.  Not everyone wants to be a parent it is true however if you do this is an important area to consider.  The west is a small metal area so if it is missing and the layout of  your home is such that you can incorporate a circular design into the missing area; an area that will be used regularly;  you will go a long way to making up for the lack.  As part of your garden design a circular flower bed with plants will recreate a sense of growth and new life in the area.  Or if the west coincides with the main door of your home, having a circular driveway which is often used will bring lots of yang energy into the space.

Earth energy in the west is auspicious so a garden design combining squares and circles will energise the location.  Bring the earth element to bear with natural material seating and tables and either locate them on a circular base or arrange them in a circular fashion.  Use this area often to activate the yang energy necessary to bring the location to life.

In symbolic Feng Shui the elephant with his trunk down is said to attract the luck associated with having a family.  There are many earth element images available.

In your bedroom the west is the place to display pictures of children aplenty. 

Without good health living a long and fulfilling life is difficult.  The location of health is the east, the area of new growth and vitality.  It is the big wood area of the Pa Kua and if it is missing in the overall design of your property good health will be hard to come by.  The east is the location of the eldest son of the family as well as health and longevity.  An abundant and vibrant rectangular flower bed to the east will create growth and new life and as long as the plants are cared for and not allowed to fade their positive energy will bring benefit to the home.  Having a moving water feature will also serve to ‘feed’ the growth element here.  It is important to ensure that the area is used frequently otherwise it will remain a yin and negative area lacking in the yang energy of movement and positive vibrations.

Using the Small Tai Chi of the living space and symbolic Feng Shui, images of the peach, the deer, the crane, bamboo and the pine tree are all associated with longevity and are often displayed together in Chinese paintings.  Depending on your culture and likes and dislikes however opting for something that represents long-life and with which you have a natural affinity will invite positive energy, energy suited to your way of life.

Feng Shui practised correctly will activate positive energy in your life and home and is designed to enhance and improve however, it is not a replacement for caring for yourself and having a lifestyle in keeping with good health.

Feng Shui and Missing Corners-Wealth


The Eight Aspirations of Feng Shui are Career (north), Education and Study (northeast), Health and Longevity (east), Wealth (southeast), Fame and Recognition (south), Love and Relationships (southwest), Family (west) and Heaven and Mentor (northwest.)

When a location (corner) relating to an aspiration important to you is missing in the Big Tai Chi of your property the first thing to establish is whether this same location is missing in the Small Tai Chi of your living space.  When the locations are missing in both the Big and the Small Tai Chi it will prove difficult for you to achieve your desires.

In the eight aspirations formula of Feng Shui, as well as the flow of money generated from your career (north) the southeast is the wealth area connected with an accumulation of wealth; long term wealth.  If this area is missing it will prove difficult to increase the level of family wealth and hold on to it.  The element connected to wealth is water; water is the element of the north and it is the enhancing element for the wood location of the southeast. 

North and Southeast
If you identify the Big Tai Chi of your entire property, including the garden, the north and the southeast are great places to locate water features.  Depending on the space you have available they can be as simple as a small pond.  In the north a decorative water feature made from the metal element will both enhance and activate the area.  If the north of your property or your home is missing then displaying a water feature in the north of the living room will be auspicious.

The north of your living room is always going to be a naturally darker area making attraction more difficult however painting the walls white will incorporate the enhancing element of metal and brighten the space at the same time. 

In the southeast of your garden a pond with plants and fish will create auspicious attraction energy.  Still water is used to absorb negative energy so is not appropriate for the purpose of enhancing for wealth.

If this space is missing in your garden; if you do not have a garden; or if the southeast corner of your house is missing; enhancing the southeast of your living room will activate the energy associated with attracting wealth.
  
Colourful flowers and a water feature suitable for the space you have available will both be auspicious for the area.

The southeast is a naturally lighter and brighter area than the north and painting it blue will calm the intensity of the space and enhance it at the same time.

Whatever wealth means to the individual it makes sense to create a living space that is conducive to attracting a level of wealth in keeping with personal desires and expectations.  

To the fulfillment of your dreams

Feng Shui and Missing Corners-Children


The Eight Aspirations of Feng Shui are Career (north), Education and Study (northeast), Health and Longevity (east), Wealth (southeast), Fame and Recognition (south), Love and Relationships (southwest), Family (west) and Heaven and Mentor (northwest.)

When a location (corner) relating to an aspiration important to you is missing in the Big Tai Chi of your property the first thing to establish is whether this same location is missing in the Small Tai Chi of your living space.  When the locations are missing in both the Big and the Small Tai Chi it will prove difficult for you to achieve your desires.

During their early life your children require only to feel loved and safe.  Keeping them healthy; and having good luck in their studies will cause difficulties for them if there is a missing corner in either the northeast (education and study luck) or in the east (health and longevity.) 

Northeast and East
The northeast is the area in the eight aspirations concerned with education and study luck.  Having your child sitting in this location when studying will help them concentrate.  They can either face the northeast when sitting doing their homework or sit in the northeast facing their Fu Wei (personal growth) direction based on their Kua number.  

The northeast may also benefit from the addition of lights and a fun way of bringing these into the space for your child is with lava or glitter lamps.  These are introducing two of the three Feng Shui enhancing elements of light and movement. 

In the eight aspirations the east of your home is the location connected to health and longevity.  It relates to Yang Wood, tall and straight trees.  It represents growth Qi, a vital component for your child’s healthy development.  Displaying the symbolic image of the mighty Dragon synonymous with the yang energy of the male offspring will bring positive benefits for your child as well as all other members of the family.  The east is the location of the eldest son of the family and it could be advantageous to have his bedroom located in this area if possible.

If your child’s bedroom also serves as their study room it is more beneficial if the two areas can be divided in some way, such as with a chest of drawers or a screen.  The bedroom is predominantly a place of rest and even though children should have more yang than yin elements in their bedroom being constantly reminded of their studies will not necessarily attract the right Qi for rest and rejuvenation.

FENG SHUI and MISSING CORNERS


The Eight Aspirations of Feng Shui are Career (north), Education and Study (northeast), Health and Longevity (east), Wealth (southeast), Fame and Recognition (south), Love and Relationships (southwest), Family (west) and Heaven and Mentor (northwest.)

When a location (corner) relating to an aspiration important to you is missing in the Big Tai Chi of your property the first thing to establish is whether this same location is missing in the Small Tai Chi of your living space.  When the locations are missing in both the Big and the Small Tai Chi it will prove difficult for you to achieve your desires.

Depending on your desired aspiration, the rooms you can activate will vary. 

For example, if you have school or college age children you can activate either the northeast corner of the living room or the northeast corner of your child’s bedroom to attract positive expectations for their learning and study.

When health and longevity are important to you either the east of your living, dining or bedroom can be activated.

Fame and recognition are best activated in the living room.

North, South and Southwest
If you aspire to success in your chosen career the areas to concentrate on are the career area of the north, the fame and recognition area of the south and the relationship area of the southwest. 

When the north of your home is missing it will impact on the day-to-day success you achieve in your working life.  This makes it important to be able to activate the Small Tai Chi of your living space.  The element associated with the north is water and a water feature with an inward flow of water displayed in the living room will activate the area.  You can also paint the area blue or white (the white of metal will enhance the north based on the productive cycle of the Five Elements.)

The area of fame and recognition is important to activate for career success as without recognition in your working life you are unlikely to attract the attention of your superiors and promotion may well pass you by.  When you run your own business this area is particularly important to get your name, and your Company’s name known to your chosen market.  Decorate and enhance the south of your living room with the red of the area or the enhancing colour of green which belongs to the wood element (wood enhances fire.)  Red is a vibrant colour which can become ‘dangerous’ if used to excess, so be sure it is not overwhelming and symbolically ‘burning’ your aspiration.  Lights belong to the fire element and can be used as an alternative to the colour red. 

The southwest is the relationship area.  In your career it is important to cultivate positive relationships with your colleagues and superiors otherwise your career may stagnate and go nowhere and you will be unhappy in your working life.  Enhancing the living area with the fire colours of the south, with lights, as well as smooth round natural crystals will bring definite benefits in all your relationships.  

To the fulfillment of your dreams
