Relationship
Tips - Part 4 This is the fourth in a multi-part series of quick tips, one for each of the five stages of the feng shui Relationship Cycle presented in Fast Feng Shui for Singles: 108 Ways to Heal Your Home and Attract Romance. You can read the previous tips in the series in our archives. The Fast Feng Shui Relationship Cycle is based on the Creative Cycle of the five elements. Each stage of the cycle is associated with the element whose qualities, characteristics, and energy most closely match your situation and goals at that stage of relationship. Phase 4: LOVING The Loving phase of the Relationship Cycle is associated with the energizing, passionate qualities of the Fire element. This is the head-over-heels, mad-about-you infatuation that is so much fun and what we are thinking of when we yearn to be "in love." In this stage you and your special someone are practically inseparable, and are recognized by friends and family as a couple. Now your feng shui strategies help you to enhance the longevity of this often short-lived phase by identifying and correcting barriers to communication and emotional intimacy. Phase 4 Tip: EQUAL OPPORTUNITY SPACE When you and your partner progress to sharing sleeping quarters, try to position the bed so there is equal space on either side of it.* If one side of the bed is against or close to the wall, the person who sleeps on that side will be disempowered in the relationship. Over time, that person may start to feel emotionally trapped. The person on the more open side of the bed will have more freedom of movement and emotional independence, and this can potentially lead to that person leaving the relationship. * Of course, you also want to have the bed in the Command Position if at all possible.

Feng
Shui Q+A (Most questions will have been edited for clarity and length, and any identifying details have been changed. Please note that due to the high volume of email I receive, it is no longer possible for me to respond to every question personally. I still welcome your questions, and if I cannot provide a personal response I will try to address your issue in a future Q+A column.) Q: Is Buddhist chanting an integral part of feng shui? A: Feng shui is not a religion, so chanting, such as repeating the mantra "om mani padme hum," is entirely optional unless you are strictly following the BTB (Black Tibetan Buddhist) feng shui methods. Even the BTB practices do not insist on using Buddhist mantras, although some form of prayer or chanting is used. It is perfectly appropriate to use Christian or other brief prayers or phrases, or even something completely secular that carries enthusiasm and strong intention for you. My BTB teachers share the example of a football fan who chose to repeat "Go team!" to empower his feng shui changes, rather than "om mani padme hum." The important factor here is that doing something that you are uncomfortable with will undermine your focus and confidence in what you are doing, and thus have a negative effect on your feng shui practice. If you feel something is missing without doing the chanting, include it. If you feel silly chanting, don't do it.
