Improve Your Love Luck with Feng Shui Are you tired of looking for love without success? If so, the layout, furnishings, and energy of your home and bedroom could be part of the problem. When the areas of your home affecting your love life are cluttered, missing from your floor plan, or suffering from sha chi (harmful energy) it can be difficult to find and maintain a good relationship. A key principle of feng shui is that everything is connected energetically. This means that your thoughts, feelings, and behavior are influenced by your surroundings. A dark, untidy bedroom contributes to an atmosphere of fatigue and depression, which in turn makes it harder for you to find the energy to clean the place up. In feng shui terms, it also undermines your ability to attract and maintain a joyful and fulfilling romantic attachment. Feng shui problems can even affect your reputation, make it harder to meet new people, and lead to increased arguments and miscommunication -- all of which contribute to difficulties in your love life. Improving your love luck with feng shui starts with understanding that attracting a partner is only part of the solution. For example, if a serious relationship has recently ended, you may need a period of healing and self-reflection before starting to date again, no matter how eager you are to connect with your next partner. Maybe you have no trouble finding dates, but can't seem to meet the right kind of person. Or perhaps you're seeing someone exclusively, but seem to be stuck just short of commitment. Here are some quick ways you can apply basic feng shui principles to increase your chances of success in various stages of the relationship cycle: When you need to recover from a break-up before moving on, your key task is to let go of the old relationship and reconnect with who you are as an individual. In feng shui terms, relics from past relationships - such as photographs, clothes, and mementos - hold you in the past. The stronger that old energy is, the harder it will be to move on to someone new. Remove anything that reminds you of a past failed relationship from your bedroom. This includes things that are out of sight in your closet, a dresser drawer, or under the bed. Pillows, mattresses, and bedding absorb your energy over time, so when a marriage or live-in relationship ends, it's a good idea to buy new sheets and pillows and even a new mattress if you can afford it, to help you make a fresh start. New bedding is also a good idea if you have been single and lonely for a long time. Pamper yourself during this stage, and try to do at least one thing every day just because it makes you happy. When you are actively looking for a partner, your key task is to create space for a new romance. If your closets, dresser drawers, and bathroom shelves are filled up with your own stuff, there is no room on an energetic level for someone new to come in. That's why the best way to attract a new romance is to literally make space for it. Empty out at least one dresser drawer for your next partner's clothes. Make space in the closet, in the bathroom cabinet, and on bookcase shelves. Start with your bedroom, then move on to the rest of the house. Is there room for another person's DVDs and music in your CD rack? Where will your new sweetheart put his or her health supplements, exercise gear, notebook computer? Is there room for another car in your garage, or have you filled that space up with stuff? Make a list of all the areas of your home where your new partner might need some space, and try to free up at least 25 percent of it. If you can't clear 25 percent of the relevant spaces, just do the best you can; your strong intention to create room for a new relationship is the most important factor. When you do connect with your new love, you can look for a more spacious residence together! When you have met a "likely prospect" and want to nurture that new relationship, your key task is to ensure that your bedroom supports romance. This is a good time to get rid of any clutter blocking the path from the front door of your home to the door of your bedroom. This will help keep the energy in your bedroom fresh and strong. In feng shui, the symbolism of what we see is very important, so make sure your bedroom says "romance" in some way. Focus on these areas: 1) what you first see when you enter the bedroom; 2) the wall across from the foot of the bed; 3) the relationship area of the room (the right-hand corner on the side of the room opposite the door, and/or the SW sector). Just about anything that means romance to you can be appropriate feng shui imagery for your bedroom. Traditional romantic symbols such as hearts, cupids, and pictures of happy couples always work well, as does a faceted feng shui crystal hung in the relationship area or over your bed. Look for opportunities to group objects in pairs, such as placing two pink or red candles or a bud vase with two red silk roses on your bedside table. Pale green is also a good color for new romance. Although these simple steps are just a few of the many ways you can use feng shui to improve your love luck, they will do a lot to shift the energy of your home. As your environment becomes more welcoming to romance, your own energy will shift as a result. When you are clear in your heart about the kind of love you want, and take action to welcome it into your home, your dream of lasting happiness with a wonderful partner really can come true.
Valentine's
Day Tip for Singles and Couples I opened my email program this morning planning to look through the folder of questions I receive to find something that would be a good Q+A topic for this Valentine's Day issue. Of course, I first read my incoming messages, one of which was Relationship Coach Rinatta Paries' newsletter featuring a fun Valentine's tip that I thought was perfect to share with you here. This is just the sort of personalized ritual that can become a powerful part of your feng shui practice. It combines the power of your imagination and intention with a very strong relationship/romance symbol - the Valentine's Day card. I've added some comments of my own, below, to help you tailor this fun activity in a feng shui way. The original tip is intended for singles, so for those who are already in a loving relationship I have also suggested how you can use this method to help keep your relationship romantic and strong.
[Singles, choose cards with red envelopes. Everyone, write your cards in the relationship area of your home or bedroom. Light two red or pink candles, and listen to romantic music while you think about and write your messages. SR]
[Couples: Write a message to your partner, listing all of the positive qualities you most appreciate about him or her. Include how that person makes you feel, not just what he or she says or does. When you are done, read through your list, and take a moment to visualize all of those qualities remaining present and strong in the future. End with a few moments of gratitude for all the blessings you experience with your loved one. SR] [Singles: holding the card(s) in your hands or against your heart, take a few moments to visualize - in as much detail as possible, using all of your senses - the relationship that you wish to have, as though you were already experiencing it. Imagine what the person who gave you these perfect Valentines looks like, what his/her voice sounds like, and how you feel when you open and read the cards. The more strongly and clearly you can imagine this happiness, the better! End your visualization with a few moments of gratitude for this wonderful relationship.]
[Place the card(s) in the Relationship area of your home or bedroom until you are ready to open them or share with your partner. SR]
[Singles: Leave the cards in place overnight before opening them… even if that means reading them several days after Valentine's Day. After opening the cards, sleep with them under your pillow for nine nights. Every night, take the cards out, reread them, and repeat the visualization exercise. After the ninth night, keep the cards someplace special such as in a pretty box in the Relationship area of your bedroom. Repeat the visualization as often as you wish from them on. SR] [Couples: After sharing your message(s) with your loved one, place the card(s) between your mattress and box spring in the Relationship area of the bed itself: standing at the foot of the bed facing the headboard, that's the right hand corner at the pillow end. Leave them in place for at least 27 nights, or until next Valentine's Day. SR] Valentine's Card tip courtesy of Relationship Coach Rinatta Paries, 888-215-6033 www.whatittakes.com
