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.
To the fulfillment of your dreams
