January 15, 2003 In this issue: We're moving tomorrow, to a new home just a few miles from here. Since finding the right new home has recently been an issue for us, I thought I would address that in this newsletter. As most of you should be aware by now, intention is a key ingredient in the successful practice of feng shui. If you are planning a move, first spend some time in quiet reflection on what qualities and features you are looking for in your "perfect" home. Be very specific about this. Make a written list of the top 10 things that are important to you, and prioritize it. This could be anything from a specific location or price to "lots of closet space" or "a sunny master bathroom" or "central air conditioning" or "a magnolia tree in the front yard." Whatever is important to you. Make sure you have a very clear idea in your mind exactly what you are looking for, and which items on your "wish list" you are willing to give up in order to have something higher on the list. Clean and activate Chien Gua (Helpful Friends) in your current home to make sure you have the support and assistance of the sellers and real estate agents or rental agents who will be involved in connecting you with your perfect home. Focus on the benefits that your purchase will provide to them, so there is a good flow of positive intention in all directions. In your meditation, feel the pleasure of knowing that your home purchase (or rental) has helped another family prosper. Picture everyone involved benefiting and being enriched by the transaction -- physically and emotionally as well as financially. Another very helpful exercise is to make a list of all the things you like and appreciate about where you are living now. Thank your current home for sheltering and supporting you as you prepare for the transition to your perfect home. Visualize someone else moving in after you have moved out, and being supported and enriched by the space. When you are clear about what you are looking for, ask for it. Literally ask God, the Universe, Spirit, whomever or whatever your commune with, to connect your with your perfect new home. You can write your request on a small piece of paper, and place it on your home altar or in Li (Fame) or Hsun (Fortunate Blessings) guas, both of which have the aspect of being connected with future experiences. Now relax, knowing that it is all being taken care of for your greatest good. Let go of feeling you have to control the process yourself, and start saying "thank you, thank you, thank you" for the perfect home that you will soon receive. The more time you can spend in meditation during this looking period, the better. For one thing, it will help you weather the stress of moving more easily. More importantly, it will help you be open to the energy of each home you see while you are looking. Eat a healthy diet, and get enough exercise and sleep. Stress, fatigue, and poor eating habits will block your energy just like clutter in the home blocks the energy of the house. Keep your energy light and open, so you can more easily connect with your perfect space. As you are house-hunting, compare each possible home to your "dream house" list, being sure also to pay attention to your body sense of whether or not this is the right home for you. Try not to feel pressured into taking something that is okay in regards to your list, but doesn't feel special. We looked at two similar cottages in the same neighborhood recently. One was a little larger, and had a nicer view, but as soon as we drove up my body tensed up, letting me know it didn't want to live there. The other cottage, although smaller, just felt right. If you pay attention to your body sense, you will walk into a certain house one day and know, "This is it!" Sometimes when we anticipate a move, it's easy to get lazy about keeping the current space clean and well-maintained. Remember that clutter and dirt are both symptoms and causes of stuck energy, and you want to be free to move on to another home. Don't neglect your current home just because you plan to move soon. I have used this process the last few times I've moved -- three with finding a great rental, and once with purchasing a home. It has worked beautifully for me, and I found the whole transition to be smooth and empowering. May your perfect new home be filled with love and light,
