How to Attract Good Luck with the 5 Elements | 2021 Ox Year Feng Shui Lucky Star | Money and Success The 5 elements are: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth. They can determine our health, wealth, happiness and prosperity. The 5 elements are everywhere in our daily lives: For example, the frying pan we use for cooking belong to the metal element. The water we drink everyday belongs to Water element. The furniture that's made of timber belong to the Wood element, the stove in the kitchen belongs to fire element and the soil in the backyard/flower pots belong to Earth element. The 5 elements can affect us in many ways. Therefore, It's very important to understand the relationships of the 5 elements and how they interact with each other. Productive relationships: Fire creates Earth: when fire burns it leaves lots of ashes, which becomes earth. Earth produces Metal - that's because earth produces ore that can be used to create metal Metal collects water - when metal is heated or cooled, water condenses on metal surface. Water nourishes Wood: water can help trees and plants to grow. Wood fuels Fire : wood can be burned to make fire. This productive relationship flows in a clockwise direction, with each element nourishing the next one. This cycle creates a harmonious and balanced energy flow. Controlling relationships: Metal cuts wood - an axe cutting down the tree. Wood penetrates earth - Earth(soil) blocks water and stop it from flowing Water control fire Fire melts metal Characteristics: FIRE: Colour: Red, Purple Direction: South Number: 9 Shape: Triangle EARTH: Colour: Brown Direction: Centre Number: 2,5,8 Shape: Square METAL: Colour: Silver, Gold Direction: West Number: 6, 7 Shape: Round WATER: Colour: Black, Blue Direction: North Number: 1 Shape: Wavy Wood: Colour: Green Direction: East Number: 3,4 Shape: Rectangle

Top 8 Bedroom Feng Shui Tips | How to Feng Shui your Bedroom to enhance health and wellbeing In Feng Shui, the 4 important areas of a house are the front door, the bedroom, the living room and the kitchen. Bedroom is one of the most important rooms in our home. An average person sleeps 8 hours a day, which means we spend about 1/3 ta day sleeping. Therefore, a good bedroom feng shui is super important. 8 Feng Shui Tips for your bedroom to enhance your health and wellbeing. 1. The Bed headboard should be placed against the wall. This is because a solid wall provides strong support and protection. But there should not be window above the headboard because glass window is transparent, it doesn't provide you enough support and protection. It has to be a solid wall. You also want to make sure you are not sharing a wall with the toilet suite or the stove on the other side from your head. This is because the energy created by the Stove or the Toilet could affect your health and wellbeing. 2. If you are living in a two-story house, make sure the stove or the toilet are not installed above or below the bedroom. For example, if the kitchen is on the ground floor, right above the kitchen is the bedroom, the fire generated from the stove goes up and create imbalanced energy in your bedroom. Similarly, if the toilet is one level above the bedroom, when flushing the toilet, the energy generated by the toilet goes down into the bedroom and that’s not good feng shui. 3. The height of your bedside tables should be lower than the headboard. It has to be one on each side of your bed for the energy to be balanced. This is because the Left hand side represents the Green Dragon and Right hand side represents the White tiger. Both need to be present to be considered good Feng Shui. 4. Make sure there is nothing hanging over your bed, such as a chandelier or a ceiling fan. This is because the energy generated from these heavy items can create lots of pressure on you. Similarly, there are bedrooms with Aircon installed on the wall right above the headboard. It can also create lots of pressure on your head. Also I have seen bedrooms with exposed beams on the ceiling. If your bed is in a position right under the beams, that's not good feng shui, so you need to consider changing the position of the bed. 5. The bedroom door and your bed should not be positioned in a straight line. That means the bed should not be facing the door. If you bed is facing the door, you may consider changing the position of your bed to avoid the imbalanced energy rushing towards your bed. 6. The toilet suite should not be seen from your bed. Many master rooms have bathrooms. If you can see the toilet suite from your bed, that means the negative energy generated from the toilet can rush into your bedroom and could affect your health. 7. There should not be a mirror in your bedroom especially one that's opposite your bed. Mirror can create energy affecting your sleeping quality. If you have a mirrored closet in your bedroom that can not be removed. What you can do is to cover the mirror with a curtain/a piece of fabric. Also, avoid putting your TV screens in your bedroom because like a mirror, it also has reflections. 8. Fish tank should not be placed in the bedroom. This is because the energy generated from the water element can disturb the stability and tranquillity of your bedroom feng shui.

Welcome to Feng Shui Café This video is about how determine whether your house has a good Feng Shui. One of the important factors is the direction that your house is facing and sitting. With a compass, we can simply find out which of the 8 directions you house is facing. But if we use a Traditional Chinese Feng Shui Compass, it would be more accurate because a Chinese compass splits the 8 directions into 24 sub-directions. According to ancient Chinese mythology and astrology, there are four celestial animals rep.the 4 different directions around your house: 1. the LHS of your house is symbolised by the green dragon 2. the RHS is symbolised by the white tiger 3. the front of the house is represented by the red phoenix 4. the back of the house is represented by the black turtle. A house with good fengshui should have the following characteristics: - The land at the back of your house should be higher than the land at the front - Turtle side should be higher than the Phenoix side - The land on the Left should be a bit higher than land on the right - Dragon side is higher than the Tiger side . According to the angle of the sunshine on earth, an ideal feng shui house should be one that is: - Sitting north and facing south(Northern Hemisphere) - Sitting South and Facing North (Southerm Hemisphere) A example of a house that's not quite favourable is: - Sitting northeast and facing southwest - Sitting southwest and facing northeast This because these type of houses get less sunshine, Yin and Yang of the houses are not balanced. The shape of the house is also very important. - According to “the book of changes" (周易） The floor plan of a good fengshui house is either rectangular or square shaped because in such houses, the Yin and Yang are balanced from all directions. If you have any questions about your house's feng shui, feel free to leave your comments at the comments section.

2021 Feng Shui money directions | How to find your lucky directions in your house | Feng Shui Tips In this video, I will talk about the best directions in your house that will bring you good luck in 2021. According to the ancient astrology, there are 9 stars. 5 of them are good stars and 4 rae evil stars and each of them governs a certain aspect your life. The stars are not static, they move every year in a certain pattern and their movements can affect the energy of the houses and the people living in the house. Every year, each of the 9 flying stars move to a different direction . No. 8 star governs wealth. In 2021, No. 8 star will fly to the West. If your front entrance, your bedroom or your kitchen is located in the west of your house. You would have lots of opportunities to make money. Since No.8 star represents wealth, it likes activities. This is why if the star moves to the direction of the areas which you frequently use such as front door/bedroom or kitchen, then the good energy of the star will be activated. No. 4 star governs wisdom. In 2021, No. 4 star will fly to the East. If you are still studying or have kids who are still at school, this star will bring you great academic achievements if your study room is in the East of your house. Two evil stars you need to watch out in 2021: No. 2 star governs disease. In 2021, No.2 star will fly to the North. If your bedroom or your kitchen is in the north, then you need to take extra care of you and your family's health. No. 5 star governs catastrophe. In 2021, No.5 star will fly to Southeast, so if your bedroom, kitchen or living room is in the SE where you conduct most of your daily activities, then you need to be very careful. Remedies: Place a round-shaped metal decor in the North (Where no.2 star will fly) and South East (where no. 5 sill fly) in order to avoid the bad energies . The reason we are using metal in these two direction is because the two evil stars No.2 and no.5 belong to the Earth element, and since Earth favour metal, when the two element meet, the strength of the bad energy would be weakened.
