Activate your eight sectors of aspiration to life in Feng Shui
After determining where the sectors of the eight life aspirations are located in your home, you will need to decorate and place items that correspond to those sectors. Remember that activating these sectors will benefit everyone who lives in your household.
Please do not confuse this with improving your PERSONAL instructions. Personal addresses must be improved by using your KUA number.
Don’t spend a lot of money!
You don’t have to go out and spend a lot of money on “Feng Shui” at home! How many people who have a specialized store will tell you THAT? 🙂 Just look around your house and see what items you have in various places. I mean figurines, plants, wooden objects, metal objects, photos, candles, oil burners, flowers, etc. Then look at the distribution of your house that you have made, and move the object to the sector that you think best suits it.
When I started activating my sectors, I discovered that there were already A LOT of things in my home that worked very well for certain sectors. The problem was, sometimes they weren’t in the RIGHT sector. So all I had to do was rearrange things a bit, and boy, what a difference! For example, I use aromatherapy a lot at home. I have a crock pot potpourri burner that I had to move to my northeast area due to the earth element. I have another sterling silver oil burner that I had to move to my northwest sector: the metal element. It didn’t cost me a penny, just the energy to move them to different areas.
Be aware of color.
If you have blue curtains in your Northeast sector and they will fit a window in the North sector, move them and replace them with some beige curtains. Note the colors of each sector as you go around the house rearranging things.
“Feng Shui” your MIND.
Get used to looking for articles that help you. Also, keep in mind that Feng Shui is not about oriental art. It’s about where you put certain objects, it doesn’t matter who made them, it only matters what it’s made of, what color it is, what shape it is, and / or what it represents. If you go to a garage sale and you find a beautiful picture of a waterfall and bring it home, THINK which sector it should go to: Agua – Carrera – Norte! Reversing that situation, if you want to activate your Career Sector in your home, go to garage sales and look for things that have to do with WATER. It is very easy to do, once you get used to it. Make yourself a little 3×5 “cheat sheet” card that has your sectors and colors, and so on. to use and carry it in your wallet if necessary.
NORTH Sector:
The northern part of your home is considered your career prospect sector
Use the colors blue and black as much as possible in this area. Do not use those colors so much that they are overwhelming.
Have water features here, as the element of the north is water. Some examples of aquatic elements are: water fountains, paintings of a lake or river, water balloons, animals that live in the water (turtles, fish, etc.) whether they are alive or made of ceramic, anything that has wavy lines.
NORTHEAST Sector
The governments of the Northeast sector education, spirituality, knowledge and self-growth
Use beige or very light brown in this area.
Use Earth-type decorations here. Examples could be plants, brown objects, a globe, and a world map. Hanging crystals and a Buddha are also good for this area.
EAST Sector
The East Sector governs family relationships and health. I’m going to break the two down a bit more:
Family Relations – Harmony
Cleaning up clutter is the single most important way to create harmony in your home. Personally, I have found that when my office is crowded, my kids seem to get a little rebellious. (They spend a lot of time in my office because that’s usually where I am! LOL) Also, it sounds silly, but when I get behind in clothes, they tend to get rebellious too. Coincidence? I doubt it! The second most important way is to KEEP the mess.
Use green and brown colors in this area.
Activate this area with: dragons, wooden objects, crystals, objects that represent the family unit, such as a family of dogs, a family of turtles, a figure of children playing, photos of their family in wooden frames, plants in pots of earth tones or ceramic.
Take steps to activate all sectors of your home by placing objects and using colors that correspond to those sectors. If all sectors are energized, it should create harmony in your home.
Health
Green and brown are good colors to use here, as well as black and blue.
Follow the guidelines above in Harmony. Also, look around the house for what are called “poison arrows,” anything sharp, pointed, and angular that looks threatening. The exposed rays are considered poisonous arrows. Redirect evil shar chi using crystals, bamboo flutes, or wind chimes.
Displaying a happy Buddha in your home living room is said to bring happiness and health to everyone who lives in your home.
Bamboo plants are a symbol of good health
Display a turtle or tortoise in the east corner of your living room for good health.
Use aromatherapy to improve your health, relieve stress, create harmony, and promote general well-being.
SOUTHEAST Sector
The southeast corner of your home is the prosperity and wealth sector.
Try to use as much green as you can in this area without overdoing it.
Flowers are great in this area. The best types of flowers and plants to use according to Feng Shui are bamboo, orchids, chrysanthemums, and plum blossoms. However, any type of plant will do. Do not use dried flowers, bonsai, or cacti that are not good to have around the house.
If your bedroom is in the SE corner of your house, don’t put plants or flowers there. Just try to find curtains, rugs, pillows, etc. that have shades of green to enhance the room.
Place a lucky cat in the SE corner of your home to bring good fortune.
Create a wealth vase to put in a closet somewhere in your southeast sector. Check out the newsletter above for tips on how to create a wealth vase.
Prosperity – General Guidelines
Hang a set of red string activated door knob coins on the knob on the inside of the front door. This helps keep money in your home. Do not put any of these on a back door, which will have the opposite effect. Also, this needs to be at the front door, whether you USE that door or not.
Hang a prosperity bell outside your front door knob to invite prosperity into your home. Make sure it is tight against the doorknob; otherwise, it may bend when closing the door if it gets caught between the door and the door jam. I will feature a bell with a bungee cord this month on my website.
Placing a small Buddha directly in front of the front door will also create positive chi and welcome prosperity into your home. Don’t put the Buddha on the ground. Try to have it at eye level if possible.
Put 3 Good Luck Coins in your wallet or purse to indicate that you will have money in it at all times.
Place some 3-legged money toads in various places around your house. These can go to the ground and be very discreet if you wish. You should put one right next to the front door that leads into the room. Then if you can, place another diagonally in front of it, not in front of the front door, but to the left or right of the opposite wall that the front door is on.
Place FuDogs right inside your front door. They symbolize the protection of the family and the protection of its heritage.
SOUTH sector
The South sector governs recognition and fame. This also covers popularity and reputation.
Wear red and various shades of red in this area, including burgundy, pink, hot pink, maroon. Take it easy with bright red as it’s a very powerful color and it could overwhelm things.
Place a sculpture of crimson bird, flying eagle, dragon, rectangular shaped crystals, fire features such as candles, oil burners, bright lights, crystal chandeliers, plants, a fireplace, wood stove in this sector. Do not show the characteristics of the water here.
SOUTHWEST Sector:
This sector governs marital happiness and romance.
Use yellow, beige, red and orange colors in this sector, being very careful not to overdo it with red and orange colors. Do not use green or brown in this area if possible.
For plants, use earth tones or ceramic for the pots.
When improving this area, make sure you always put things in pairs. Not one and definitely not three, just two different elements that symbolize love and romance for you. Mandarin ducks, love birds, and peacocks are good symbols here.
The crystals in the SW sector of your home or bedroom will activate the earth energies of that sector. You can hang them in a window or just have ornamental glass elements there.
WEST Sector
This sector governs the luck of children and also new projects, hobbies, stages of life and pleasure.
Use white, silver, yellow, and gold in this area.
Place white, silver or yellow flowers, hollow wind chimes, bells, metal or earth objects, round objects, ceramic objects, quartz crystal, a sleeping white tiger (MUST be sleeping or not put it here), TV, computer, stereo, soapstone objects representing the family in this area.
NORTHWEST Sector
This sector governs mentoring, networking, startups, encounters with influencers, and important encounters.
Use metallic colors here like white, silver, and gold.
Place hollow wind chimes, stone and metal sculptures, anything that is colored or metallic material, metal chandeliers, and picture frames in this area.
