Whether you are single and looking for a soul mate or happily married to your soul mate, I hope this article will be of help to you in your Feng Shui practice! There are several different areas in your home that you can activate in order to improve relationships in this area. The first and most important is the Southwest sector of your home. You may also want to do some decorative enhancements in your bedroom - particularly in the Southwest corner of that room. The living room is also another place that you can activate. And last, but certainly not least - get a "double dip" by making sure the Romance Sector of your personal KUA number is covered as well. Clear the Clutter. I can't say this enough. The first thing that you need to make sure of is that there is no clutter in this area. Remember, clutter is said to block the flow of positive chi, which we definitely do not want to happen in an area as important as this! A stagnated love life leads to unhappiness and possibly divorce - so make sure you have the clutter cleared in this area! Choose Your Colors Wisely. The element for the Southwest is Big Earth, so it is important that the colors in this area reflect that element. Earth element colors are beige and yellow. You may also use pink and red in this area as well to spice it up a bit! Be careful not to use metal or wood colors in this sector - such as metallic, gold, silver, green or brown. If you do, use them sparingly and make sure that the item you are using has to do with romance if at all possible. Object Placement in the Southwest Sector. It is important what pictures and objects that you have in this sector as they are said to directly influence your love life. If you have a lot of word or metal tems in this area, move them to a different sector such as the Northwest or West. In this area, try to stay with ceramic items as much as possible. Here are some ideas of items that you can place in this area that represent Romance and/or the Earth Element. One of the best items you can have in this area would be a depiction of a phoenix and dragon which are considered the celestial couple - able to overcome all odds together with their strength. They represent Yin and Yang - a perfect balance of harmony. Display the double happiness symbol in the Southwest of your home, bedroom or living room. Double happiness jewel boxes are great here - just put a small photo of you and your loved one, a ring, a piece of jewelry or anything that symbolizes love in this beautiful box - or leave it empty if you wish. Red, pink and/or white heart shaped candles are good in this area. You don't necessarily have to burn the candles - just display them. Aromatherapy can also play a vital part in dispersing negative chi in this area. Also, you may want to display a pink or red heart shaped crystal here as well. Try to find a painting or a photo of a romantic couple to place in this area. And don't forget - if you are married - how about a wedding picture or an engagement photo here? If you kept the bride/groom figurine that may have been on top of your wedding cake you can use this too. You may also want to display your bridal bouquet in a plastic case here as well. Don't box this stuff up and put it in the back of a closet somewhere - DISPLAY these symbols of your love where all can see! Red or pink roses are also perfect for this area. You may use real ones or silk ones. I like silk because they last forever! Lovebirds or Mandarin Ducks are said to mate for life - and are perfect relationship enhancers for this area. If you are a lover of ceramics, the Southwest is a great place to display anything in twos. For example - two dogs or cats playing or in a loving stance - two elephants together - two of any animal representing a male and female relationship is great! Be very careful that you do not use things that have three in them as that can represent someone coming between you and your loved one. Kwan Yin is representative of unconditional love and bodes well in the Romance Sector. After all, isn't that what love is all about? Unconditional? How perfect a relationship can be when you each love one another despite each other's faults and shortcomings! |
