DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE MONEY ROOM IS IN YOUR HOUSE?
By Debra Blackmon

You've worked hard, you've followed your bliss and intended to get rich, but the financial rewards are elusive.The fruit has been in sight, just not ripe enough to fall off the tree and into your hands.

What would ancient Feng Shui wisdom say about your situation?
The Dragon guards four tender green shoots.

Ok, ancient wisdom is cryptic. Translation, there is a place in your home where prosperity is nurtured. Find it, embellish it, cultivate it, reap its harvest.

Feng Shui is a coded language, mainly because those who got caught practicing it a long time ago, would be killed. Practitioners use codes today because it helps romance and hype the information.

What you really want right now is more money in your life, not hype.
And this is one of the first tests newcomers give Feng Shui, thinking, if it works on money, it will probably work on anything.

So, with the intention of allowing more prosperity into your life, choose 4 personally symbolic items to enshrine in the mysterious Prosperity Gua. It wouldn't hurt if they were green (might even help) and had something to do with representing your desire (sounds like 4 $20.00 bills would do the trick, but you could start with $1.00s).

Now, the Prosperity Gua can be found in several different places in your home, depending on which Feng Shui School you follow. Think of finding your perfect spot as part of the treasure hunt.

Try the upper left hand side of your desk where you work everyday. Or in the far left hand corner of your bedroom as you enter the door. Don't  forget to look at the farthest left hand corner of the entire house as perceived from standing just inside the front door.

With Feng Shui it wouldn't hurt to enhance all those places, and one more look in the South East quadrant of the house (use a compass).The Dragon lives there. Very lucky in some schools.

Did you find your money room? If not, and all else fails know this intention is the single most important aspect of good Feng Shui, so if you're ollowing your bliss, the money room is in your head. And in your heart. You?re already rich.

WHERE ARE THE HELPFUL PEOPLE?
By Debra Blackmon

Why are you drawn to Feng Shui?
Are you seeking to start a new relationship?
Grow a money tree?

Maybe it's  the promise of strengthened family ties or a career path opened, the dawning of wisdom or fame, even more children (or creativity).

It's possible to focus on any of these energy sites in a home and behold the wonders of intention.

Or, just for an exercise in faith, go directly to the Heaven Gua.

This one is underrated and overlooked.Too bad, because it's where the helpful people dwell.

It'ts difficult to make it in this world all alone helpful people will carry you, boost you, prod you, poke you and stab you, if you need it, to get you where you need to be.

This gua gets you where you need to be (maybe that'ts why it'ts sometimes called the Travel Gua)!

The dog unearths six gold rings.Lucky dog!; Blessings come in many sizes and shapes; sometimes disguised the old Feng Shui masters liked to disguise their blessings cryptically. Translation, enhance the Helpful People Gua and benefit your life greatly, receive a blessing, become a blessing!

Here's one way to do that

Keeping in mind that the Universe loves a symbolic gesture, create a small personal, devotional altar in your home (locations to follow).

On that altar, place symbolic items, a sign of your intention to receive (and give) blessings.  Make it personal; no one is going to ask you to explain the significance of the items, but they should have big meaning to you!

Some people use angels here, Christ or Buddha figures, saints whatever builds your faith and represents heavenly energy coming into the space for you.

Now, whenever you are in the nearest right hand corner of your bedroom as you enter the door, or in the nearest right hand corner of the entire house (as perceived from standing just inside the front door) in sight of that altar (depending on where you placed it) remember your intention to be blessed and to be a blessing.Faith cometh.

By the way, that dog lives in the Northwest quadrant of the house (use a compass). Very lucky in some Feng Shui schools.
