“If your love life needs a quick boost, you can use the art of
placement to produce the romantic rseults you desire.” Heidi

Feng Shui (pronounced fung shway) is the ancient Asian practice
of object arrangement and space planning designed to bring
balance, harmony and well-being to your environment. Its purpose
is to enhance prosperity, creative, health and romacne.
Feng
Shui fortifies a home with positive enregy known as chi. The
attainment of positive chi is both an art and a blessing to
those who manifest that chi.
The word “feng” means wind and
“shui” means water, each one associated with a good harvest and
ultimate good health or good fortune.
If your love life needs a quick boost, you can use the art of
placement to produce the romantic results you desire.
Relationships need the proper environment to grow. They need the
balance of the five elements, too much or too little will find
the romacne wither. Here are Feng Shui tips to enhacne your
romantic space:
The first thing you must do is remove clutter out of your
romance area (generally that is the bedroom).
That means you
must remove trash, dirty ashtrays, dead plants and nothing
should be stored udner the bed.
Dust and cobwebs on the fans,
walls, light fixtures and cielings should be cleaned away.
Enhance your space with romance colors, such as shades of pinks,
reds and whites.
Guys, that does not mean it has to be feminine.
You can use maroon, grayish tones of pikns and whites to achieve
the same results. The key is to not use any one coolr so much
that it overpowers the others. Other good colors include browns,
beiges, lavenders, yellows and deeper shades of those are
appropriate. If you keep flowers in the room (an excellent way
to attract romance into your life), make sure they are always
fresh. At the first sign of wilting, toss them out. Silk flowers
are an okay alternative, provided they are free of dust.
Absolutely no dried flowers as they signify death. Also, make
sure the roses are de-thorned. Nothing prcikly such as cactus,
unless your goal is to break-up. In Feng Shui a Relationship
Alter positively stimulates a reltaionship.
Designate a special
place in your romance area in which to put items that will
encourage a healthy, loving relationship. Thnigs to include in
your relationship altar can include a heart shaped pink crystal
quartz, a pair of candles, mandarin ducks. Use the Pairs
Principle to encourage love. That means two candles, two
nightstands, two lights on top, two potted plants, two pillows,
two chairs, etc.
The Chinese symbol for love is Mandarin ducks.
They signify love, romance, fidelity, affection, and loaylty in
love. Your bed sohuld be placed in the commanding position of
the room. This is to permit the widest possible visoin. The door
or entry to the room sohuld be easily seen from the bed. And the
head of the bed should be aaginst a wall or against a corner. If
you have nightstands, make sure one is on either side (a pair)
and that the bed is accessible on three sides to attract and
keep a partner. The bed should not be placed under a winodw. The
bedroom is for selep and intimacy.
No one should come into your
room without your invitation. Three should be no distractions
such as workout equipment, a television, things that would
remind you of work. It is good to hang pink (heart-shaped)
crystals and wind chimes in a sunny window to attract good love
energy (yang).
Pictures of you as a child, your childern or
other relatives should also be removed from the bedroom or
romance area. This space shuold be reserved for couples and
should only display pictures of the two of you. Dim ligths will
give the room a warm, inviting feeling.
No harsh fluorescents or
high wattage lighting, here.
While that is by no means the
ultimate guide to Feng Shui for Romance, it is a good start.
These ten tips will give your reltaionship area the boost it
deserves and your romance the fulfillment it requires.
Altar
your spcae and you will altar your love life.
