Tips and Tricks Creating a Wealth Vase I have had a couple of people ask me about wealth vases, so I thought I would give you a few ideas on them. First of all, a wealth vase is a very personal item. For this reason, I do not no t sell wealth vases on my website. I could easily make one up and put it out there and possibly sell quite a few of them – them – but but I think it needs to be something each individual uses their own imagination and resources on. A nice crystal bowl is ideal for a wealth vase and is relatively inexpensive. Just Ju st keep in mind that the type of element you use for the vase will determine where you place plac e it. So for example, if you use u se an earth element like crystal or porcelain you need n eed to place it in either the SW corner or NE corner. If you use a metal element vase such as silver, gold, copper or brass, you would place it in the W or NW corner. In it, put your treasures that symbolize we alth to you. Here are a few examples: I-Ching coins (doesn’t matter if they are real or imitation), other coins – I – I have several silver dollars that were given to me by my Mom when my Dad passed away that I use – use – semi semi precious stones – stones – like like those found in power bead bracelets – bracelets – unused unused jewelry with semi precious or precious stones – stones – real real or imitation gold ingots – ingots – crystals of any size or shape. Once you have your wealth vase filled, place it in a cabinet or hidden away somewhere in the corresponding sector either in your bedroom or your home. It is not for others to see. Setting up Terrapin Bowl If you are not inclined to have h ave a live turtle, get a ceramic c eramic one. Get a small clear glass or crystal bowl and place a mound of rocks/pebbles in it. Then fill the bowl with water, but not all the way up to the top of the mound of rocks. Place the turtle on the rocks. I have a plant with a ceramic turtle setting inside the planter on the dirt. That will work as well. Aromatherapy Aromatherapy is a wonderful part of Feng Shui. It can be used to dispel negative chi from your life and can also be used to promote total well being. Use the following essential oils to achieve the results you want:
· Soak your crystals in sea salt water for 7 days and nights to wash off any negative energy. It is also recommended that you do this a few times a year. You can purchase sea salt from a health food store. · If you have a split level home and your living room is on the lower level, you can hang a crystal in the center of the living room to promote the upward mobility of the chi to flow into the rest of your home. · If you have a long hallway in your home with several doors along it, hang a crystal in the hallway to invite the chi to come down the hallway. Clear The Clutter Start the New Year out right by b y clearing the clutter from your home or office. I have noticed a distinct difference in my thinking abilities when my office is cluttered and when it is not. I also notice a difference in the way my children behave if the house is a little messy or there is excess laundry to do! (Which happens more often than I would like for it to!) This motto came from a friend for the year 2003 - UNLOAD THE OVERLOAD!!! Think about that one and get as "deep" as you want, because bec ause it is truly a powerful statement if you think abo ut it! Dispelling Negative Chi If you are having a problem p roblem with one of your Eight Life Aspirations, use Essential Oils along with your other cures to help dispel the negative chi in that sector of your home. You can do this by lighting a scented candle and / or burning oil in an oil burner or lamp. Do this on a daily da ily basis until the problem is solved. Another method I use is to take a 4-ounce spray spra y bottle and put 3 droppers of oil in it, shake it and spray around the room! Also, if you have trouble sleeping - take a cotton ball and put some lavender essential oil on it. Then dab it onto various spots on your pillowcase - believe b elieve me this WORKS! But you need to be careful and not over do it - otherwise you can get a "heady" feeling - but you still go out like a light! Tips to activate your Romance Sector!

SPRING CLEANING!! With spring coming up, now is a GREAT time to clear your clutter or "unload the overload" as a friend of mine says! Clutter is one of the worst things that you can have in your home to stop or slow down the flow of chi. If chi stagnates, you will have some problems. Check closets, under the bed and in corners clutter's best places to reside. Rule of thumb…. If you have something hanging hanging around that you have not used in the last year…. get rid of it. Have a nice big garage sale - or sell your items on eBay! This way, you not only get rid of something you are not going to use, but you make a little money in the process! And if you are not inclined to do that, give the items to a worthy cause. We donate a lot of items each year to our local Disabled American Veterans bec ause my husband, father and brothers are all veterans and we hope someone will benefit from it. Loud Noises to release Chi If you are having problems with one on e of your eight life aspirations even after going th rough your home and activating the appropriate sector with the right objects, you may be experiencing ex periencing problems because the chi is "stuck" in a corner and can't move. I have read that if you go around to the corners or blocked in areas in that sector and clang clan g two lids from cooking pots together or ring a bell - that will release the chi so it can flow again. I don't know how true this is - it is just something I picked up in my m y research! : ) Also, lighting a candle or using aromatherapy in that area will help as well. Educational Luck of Children If you would like to help your child achieve greater success with his edu cation, place a Crystal Globe on the Northeast sector of the desk or place of study for your child’s academic luck . This is said to increase your child’s knowledge and academic luck in pursuing their education. You can also put this Crystal Globe in the Northwest of your home or office to enhance Networking and mentor luck. Two other items that will also help with your child's education are a pagoda a pagoda and an elephant elephant..

Feng Shui Symbols Feng Shui symbols help in bringing love, luck and happiness into one's life. Read on to know the meanings of some important Feng Shui symbols.
Feng Shui is an ancient system which originated in China, that is based on the philosophy that everybody in this universe, whether people, animals, things or places, have a certain kind of energy. This energy which we feel all around us, affects us mentally, physically and spiritually. According to Feng Shui, there are certain techniques which we can use to attract only the kind of energies that we want, while letting go off the ones that are undesirable to us. Symbols of Feng Shui are one of the techniques that are used to harmonize the environment around us, and to attract positive forces and energies towards us. Different Feng Shui symbols are said to bring different positive forces in one's life. Here is a list of the most prominent and commonly used Feng Shui symbols, along with their meanings.

There are a number of different laughing Buddha symbols, such as a laughing Buddha that is holding a bowl, which represents prosperity, a Buddha holding a sack and a fan, representing someone who is on a spiritual journey, and a laughing Buddha who is sitting on a gold nugget, representing a happy home.
Chinese Feng Shui Tips An ancient art which began in China and has now gained prominence in every part of the world.
Always sleep or work with a wall behind your back. This will ensure that you feel rested and are supported in your future career plans. A crystal placed on your table or hung by your window will activate positive Qi and dissipate negative ones. Do not have the child's bedroom or study above a garage or below a toilet, as this will decrease his concentration. To have luck and wealth in your business, string two, six or seven bells on a red string and hang on your doorknob. For a long and fruitful life,position a statue or picture of a crane in the area where you and your family spend most time together. Place a dragon facing the window, on the right hand side of your desk. This will be further you career prospects. Fill a pot with coins, animal figures, crystals and rice and hide it in the cupboard. This symbolizes luck in regard to wealth. Store clutter in boxes and purify the home with incense, as a cluttered home or office is not conductive to good Qi. Place jade tortoises and coins close to your bedroom as they are considered auspicious and health-rich items. Include a dragon figurine next to to the bed to invoke yang energy. This helps if you are trying to conceive a child. If you have bought antique furniture, purify it outside the house using salt, sound, fire, or water. If you love pets, keep a fish or bird. Both these animals are powerful representations of wealth. You can place the Buddha on an elevated area in the dining room, lounge or living room. If you have a sick member at home, use flowers and plants to decorate the room. This attracts a dose of yang energy. White roses should not be given to your loved one. You could give it to a mature person. Lovers can display mandarin ducks in pairs, as they stand for happiness and fulfillment. Guardians, like the Qi Lins and Fu Dogs should be placed by the entrance with their heads facing outside. This is done to protect you and your family from harm. Avoid sitting with the door behind you in the office, it could signify demotion. To invoke good business, put Chinese coin tassels in ledgers and books. After purchasing crystals, soak them in a bowl of distilled water overnight to cleanse them. Avoid using yang colors like red, orange and bright yellow in the bedroom. A rooster statue is a good talisman to use against infidelity. While placing it ensure it is facing the main door. Hang family portraits in the center of the room, this encourages family harmony. Leave the barbacue pit in the South sector of you home.

Feng shui is an ancient Chinese subject that delves into the laws of both Heaven (astronomy) and Earth (geography), and enables the balancing of energies, as well as the harnessing of positive energies to promote good health and fortune.

Office Feng Shui Tips
Your desk and computer should be positioned in such a way that it allows for a clear view of the door. However, if this is not possible in your office, then one may use a mirror that makes it possible to see the door. Clear away all kinds of clutter, be it from your office, desk, desktop (never use shortcuts to programs) or inbox. When you enter your office, the corner at the far left is your wealth and prosperity corner. Needless to say, this corner must not be cluttered. A small tabletop fountain or a valuable item when placed here will enhance your prosperity. Ideally, incorporate the colors of prosperity: red, blue and purple.
