Daily Feng Shui Tip for October 1 – ‘World Day of Bullying Prevention’

I know from past feedback that today’s tip absolutely works to push bullies to the side. So let’s spice up ‘World Day of Bullying Prevention’ by embracing an ancient technique. In certain Eastern and Oriental cultures, cinnamon is considered the ‘warm brown spice of friendship’ that also packs the power to fend off bullies. It is said that this spice bestows protection and strength while also destroying ‘enemies.’ A pinch in a pocket or a bit sprinkled inside a wallet (or anywhere else) will employ powers of protection that can conquer all kinds of fear. Now, that’s sweet!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 30 – ‘National Mud Pack Day’

If you have a dirty mind, you’ll be right in the flow on this ‘National Mud Pack Day.’ For centuries people have discovered the magical benefits of using mud for a beautiful complexion. Mud cleanses and purifies the skin, and its mineral rich properties help rejuvenate and restore. And it’s all-natural and chemical-free! For dry skin, ‘Fuller’s Earth’ or Multani mitti is recommended. You will need three tablespoons of that as well as two tablespoons of plain yogurt, a half-teaspoon of almond oil and three drops of rose water. Put the yogurt in a bowl and add the earth gradually, stirring gently with a wooden spoon. Pour the almond oil and rose water into this mix and continue stirring until the ingredients form a loose paste. Apply this mudpack for twenty minutes before washing it off. For oily skin put three tablespoons of Fuller’s Earth in a bowl with few drops of fresh lime juice and three drops of rose water. Mix until a loose paste forms and wear for thirty minutes. Wash it off your face and then watch the wear and tear of your life go down the drain, exactly where it belongs.

Daily Feng Shui for Sept. 29 – ‘National Attend Your Grandchild’s Birthday’

It’s ‘National Attend Your Grandchild’s Birthday,’ and I have just the gifts that will give Grandma and Grandpa the knowledge that they’ve fully contributed in bringing their grandbaby health, happiness and prosperity. If the baby is a girl then a cherry tree should be planted in her name. This could be in the yard or anywhere else, as it carries a sweet and supportive energy. In fact, a cherry tree has energy that will strengthen all feminine energy. Within nine months of the birth of the baby girl, a cherry tree should be planted to encourage that same sweetness and support her whole life long. If the baby is a boy then a pine tree should be planted in his name. This tree of life will strengthen masculine energies and support him with potency and longevity all the rest of his life!

Feng Shui Tip for September 28 – ‘Neighbors’

‘Good fences make good neighbors’ but I say that using Feng Shui can make you an even better neighbor. But what if no matter how peaceful your home is, you still have to deal with that nasty next-door neighbor? Feng Shui says that if you live in an apartment and the problem comes from a neighbor living directly across from you, you could place one small mirror on your front door to reflect the neighbor’s negative energy right back to them. If the neighbor to your right is posing a problem, hanging a six-rod hollow wind chime on the right side of the outside of your front door will lift neighborly negativity away. If the nuisance neighbor lives on your left, position an image of a dragon or a healthy green plant on that same side. All of these cures are also applicable if you live in a house with negative neighbors. Home dwellers have the bonus of being able to use light cures to negate neighborly darkness. Light is considered an especially effective cure when attempting to stop nocturnal annoyances. Position a motion-detecting spotlight on the side of the house where the irritation comes from and shine some sense into those people. And then there’s the granddaddy of all Feng Shui bad neighbor cures. Place a large mouthed basin or half barrel of water between you and your neighbor. This water will absorb negative energies and soften relations between the two of you. Hey, stranger things have happened when using this cure. Like I said, good fences might make good neighbors, but Feng Shui helps make the bad ones go away.

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 27 – ‘World Tourism Day’

Today is ‘World Tourism Day,’ a time to learn to travel with ease while also keeping the home fires stoked. Before leaving home be sure to tie nine or 18 inches of red thread, string, yarn or ribbon on the handles of every piece of luggage. This is a kind of cosmic crutch that makes sure that your bags get to your destination. And don’t forget to download an image of the Mystic Knot. This is a mystical travel companion that keeps your energies and your trip running smoothly. If you encounter challenges in your travels, simply take out this symbol, run the hand you write with over it three times in a clockwise direction and then unravel any unexpected issues. Placing a small statue or crystal figurine of a bear in the ‘Helpful People’ area of your home while you’re away will ensure that all flows like honey on the home front while you’re away. In Feng Shui the bear symbolizes masculine energies, so he is tasked with protecting your space with strength and courage. He is also regarded as a potent charm against any break-ins or potential robbery while you’re out of town. As a bonus, keeping an image of a bear in this space is also believed to strengthen good health for the male head of household, especially if he travels a lot. Lastly, don’t forget to put some salt out in the space you will be sleeping in when you are away. Placing some salt in an open container inside your room will absorb negative vibes left behind by the previous tenant. Do any or all of these travel cures the next time you see the world or just spend a weekend away.

Daily Feng Shui Tip for September 25 – ‘Wisdom Secrets’

One of the first traditions that I studied when I started my energetic explorations were those of the Native Americans. So today I’d like to share some of the wisdom secrets that I was taught by my wise elder teachers. For example, I learned that there are magical ways in the Native American traditions to assist a woman who is wishing for a child. They say that the mother-to-be should prepare a sacred medicine bundle that will help bring a bundle of joy into her life. She should put a lock of her hair, a blue corn kernel, a red stone and herbs such as black walnut and red raspberry into a square of black or yellow cloth. The bundle should then be wrapped in red string and tied to a bush with a feather so it’s easily located by the Higher Powers. This bundle should only be constructed at the time of the New Moon in order to successfully birth a bright light into this world.

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 22 – ‘Elephant Appreciation Day’

No one appreciates an empowering elephant more than me, and so I dedicate today’s ‘Elephant Appreciation Day’ to each of you who brings an elephant into your living space! Elephants are considered a precious animal in Feng Shui, symbolizing fertility, strength, sagacity and wealth. When an elephant is present in the home, either through an image, statue or some other symbol, that home is blessed with ‘descendant’s luck.’ Eastern traditions tell that the elephant is one of the four animals of power and energy, along with the tiger, leopard and lion. The elephant is also one of the seven precious treasures in Buddhism. In China, the white elephant is the national emblem, while Hindu mythology shares that the entire world is supported on the back of one that stands on a tortoise. The Hindu Lord Ganesh, the deity who can help remove all challenges from our lives, actually manifests in the form of an elephant god. In Feng Shui and Mahayana Buddhism, the elephant is said to be the bearer of the ‘wish granting gem’ and we can put that info to good use right now. If you’re wishing for employment, place a statue of an elephant with a crystal on its back immediately inside the front door, facing into the space. Place a coin on the back of the elephant if your wish is for fortunes and wealth. If you’re wishing for a child, situate the elephant statue at the base of your bedroom door and place a stone on its back. Whatever your wish, this elephant really rocks!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 21 – ‘International Day of Peace’

John Lennon once sang about today’s ‘International Day of Peace’ energies when he said ‘all we are saying is give peace a chance.’ In honor of that sentiment, today I’d like to show you how to do exactly that by sharing some essential ways of bringing sweet peace into your own life. The master teachers of old consider peace to be a cherished state of grace that brings rejuvenation to the soul. They instructed that we must be ever vigilant to practice peace because it is truly a choice as well as a state of mind. The following blend of essential oils, when inhaled or diffused around your space, will bring you to a powerful state of peace. Once you find peace those energies will ripple out to your immediate environment. First, though, you must become at peace before those energies can circulate into the world. In order to reach that peaceful state, mix a quarter cup of jojoba oil and five drops each of essential oil of chamomile, carnation, frankincense, neroli and melissa. Wear this blend as a personal perfume or pour into an atomizer bottle and spray it around your living space. Peace!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for September 20 – Sapphire

The precious gem that is most associated with the month of September is the mystical sapphire. It has long been believed that simply wearing a sapphire close to the skin (as in some form of jewelry) will bring the wearer big favor and fabulous fortune. It’s also believed that these magnanimous blessings will ward off jealousy, negative energies and envy. The star sapphire has been known in many traditions to bestow good luck and money-making opportunities. So sapphires were called by some ‘Stones of Destiny’ and were said to represent faith, hope and destiny. Holistic and alternative energy healers say that sapphires can bring great things to the wearer, especially if there is conscious intent. But at any time of year it’s an excellent idea to adorn your life with star sapphire to clear your thoughts, enhance your creativity and enchant everyone around you. Now, that’s one power-packed gem!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for September 19 – ‘National Women Road Warrior Day!’

Ladies, put your pedal to the mettle since it’s ‘National Women Road Warrior Day!’ But before you get behind this battle or your steering wheel be sure to follow a few tried and true Feng Shui rules for owning the road. First is to be sure that the car is clear of clutter. Another Feng Shui car cure is to hang a round and faceted clear quartz crystal with red thread from the rearview mirror. If you find this crystal distracting, keep one in the center well of the car or in the glove box. Speaking of that, Feng Shui says to keep six faux peacocks in that same space to guarantee that you not only enjoy the journey but also arrive at your destination. Lastly, a blend of ten drops each of lemon essential and peppermint oil can keep any warrior awake and alert. Okay, ladies, today’s your day. Start your engines! But not first without following a few of these Car Shui rules!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 18 – ‘National Cheeseburger Day’

Did you ever think that we could find a way to fight cancer while taking a bite out of ‘National Cheeseburger Day?’ In fact, prominent cancer researcher Dr. William Li says that his ‘secret weapon’ to preventing cancer, especially lung cancer, is cheese, specifically Gouda, Jarlsberg, Edam and other hard cheeses. Li says that eating just two slices of these cheeses a day can reduce the risk of cancer since they contain a hormone called Vitamin K2 that has been shown to inhibit cancer growth. Studies have shown that those who eat hard cheeses each day have a decreased risk of developing some of the more common cancers like lung or prostrate. So the next time you decide to have a cheeseburger, skip the burger part and melt a few slices of Jarlsberg on whole grain bread and make yourself a lot more disease resistant!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 16 – ‘Collect Rocks Day’

On this ‘Collect Rocks Day’ I think about the symbolic golden mountain of rocks outside my front door that invites good luck and fabulous fortunes, especially where employment opportunities are concerned. According to Feng Shui, this ‘Mountain of Gold’ has several powerful variations that all entail using a small pile of golden rocks to activate energies of supreme success. All you need are some medium sized rocks, or even small boulders if your space can accommodate a ‘larger’ version of this cure. Paint the rocks a golden color and position them immediately outside the front entrance to your living space, arranging them in a mound — a symbolic ‘mountain’ of sorts. The promise is that career opportunities will come calling as troublesome work challenges or business obstacles fade away. Improvements in your life that should make it a happier and healthier place are also promised by this simple collection of rocks. You can look for the silver lining but you actively invite it with these golden and supportive rocks!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for September 12 – ‘Mallow’

According to the Feng Shui floral calendar, the plant most associated with the month of September is the perennial aromatic plant mallow, also called the marsh mallow. This herb blossoms between May and August but reaches maturity in September. Mallow is often called a ‘cure-all’ herb due to the fact that its roots and mucilage were believed to heal digestive disorders, urinary tract inflammations and infections, as well as relieving upper respiratory problems caused by the common cold. Native Americans highly recommended this herb as a poultice to alleviate pain and soreness from insect stings. The soothing effects of the marshmallow plant are generally understood in holistic circles to relieve irritated or inflamed skin. It is also used in infusions and tinctures aimed at helping to heal gastritis, ulcers and throat ailments such as laryngitis. It’s clear that there’s more to the marsh mallow than being just a confectionary delight!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 11 – ‘Make Your Bed Day’

It’s time to get up and celebrate ‘Make Your Bed Day’ as today you will learn how to make your bed work for you! Feng Shui espouses many ways of how the favorable positioning of your bed can have a big positive influence. For example, the ‘Command Position’ is the most powerful of all bed positions in that it allows fortune to find you while you sleep. In this position the bed should sit as far from the bedroom door as possible. It should face the door but not in a way where your feet are directly across from it. The theory here is that the farther your bed is from the room’s entry door, the more control you will have over your sleeping space and your entire life. You won’t be surprised or startled easily and you’ll have time to react to events as they unfold. Speaking of unfolding, Feng Shui also maintains that sheets, blankets, quilts and comforters should always be clean and in good condition. And the bed should be made every day in order to establish order in the bedroom that will spill over into your life. Now for the secret ‘Bed Shui!’ Keep a smooth and rounded crystal ball at the foot of the bed on the side that you don’t sleep on in order to keep smooth and harmonious relationships all around you. All of these cures make for some really sweet dreams!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 9 – ‘The Number Nine’

Today is the ninth day of the ninth month, and that means wish-fulfilling magic is in the air! In Feng Shui, the number nine represents happy and prosperous conclusions that can bring completion to certain cycles of your life. This happens before you embark on a brand new path represented by the number one. The reason that this number nine holds the highest mantle is that it is the last of the single digit numbers before the double digits. Consequently, on something called the Feng Shui ‘Magic Square’ (or Lo Shui) the number nine is always associated with transformation, recognition and rewards. But mystery surrounds this number too. The ancients buried their dead only on the ninth day. The Romans held a feast honoring their dead every ninth year and it was at the ninth hour that Jesus was said to have died. In Hebrew teachings it is said that God has descended to earth nine times. There are nine planets in the solar system and the number that symbolizes all of mankind itself is nine! It is also the number of force and energy and its purest form denotes ambition and domination over all. On this day try to do one or all three of these next exercises in order to gain the most magic you can from the mystical energies swirling all around: Knock on your front door nine times, visualizing opportunities and advantages coming through that same space. Put nine yellow roses in the center of your home and then light nine red candles in the ‘Fame’ area of your main floor in order to attract fortune and luck. Any one of these adjustments will put you in touch with the miracles surrounding this number, but enacting all three will put you in position of strength, power and fulfillment. Here’s to a day dedicated to the number nine!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for September 8

‘Hail, holy Queen, Mother of Mercy! Our life, our sweetness, and our hope! To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn, then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exiles show unto us the blessed fruit of they womb, Jesus. Oh clement, oh loving, oh sweet Virgin Mary.’ It’s ‘Virgin Mary Day,’ that’s why.

Daily Feng Shui Tip for August 6

Our regular Feng Shui interrupter is not available today. But I figured by the time you looked at Today’s Tip, you would probably figure that out, lol!

I am sorry. Hopefully we will have our regular article back.

“If your home faces southwest, it’s ideal for finding romance, sustaining loving relationships, and enjoying emotional fulfillment.”

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 5 – ‘Be Late For Something Day’

Today’s ‘Be Late for Something Day’ energies will probably describe this first day of school for many parents who have trouble getting the kids out the door in a timely and peaceful manner. Therefore, in order not to be late for anything, getting prepped for today might take a bit of planning. That means kids should start getting into some sort of routine a few weeks before school officially begins. Waiting until the final twenty-four hours before the alarm goes off probably won’t work. So a few weeks before school starts, start waking your student a bit closer to the time that they will eventually be rising on a daily basis. If getting your wunderkind to bed earlier poses a problem you might want to use a blend of lavender and chamomile essential oils to calm the child and help them stay quiet and content. Put ten drops of the two oils in a spray bottle and fill with distilled or spring water. Spray around the sleeping space at least twenty minutes before bedtime and you’ll be giving the Sandman a huge helping hand. Whatever you do, make sure that all electronics and technology are turned off at bedtime. The electromagnetic frequencies from appliances, computers and televisions can impact the sleeping student in a disruptive way, so keeping stimulation to a minimum before bed will make for a rested and ready student in the morning!

Daily Feng Shui Tip for Sept. 3 – ‘Labor Day’

It’s ‘Labor Day’ already — where did the summer go? If you’re traveling this holiday weekend then you might appreciate the next few drive-time tips aimed at bringing peace to time spent behind the wheel. This modality is called Feng Che, a cousin to the more widely known Feng Shui. Feng Che takes an opportunity to steer you to where you are headed with health, happiness and prosperity as backseat drivers. Feng Che (or Car Shui, as I like to call it) has some dictates that will help to keep negative energy from driving your mood. First, never leave clutter in the car. Treat the inside of the car as you would your home and realize that clutter can lead to the same sort of ‘ill Chi’ in your car as it does in any other space. It’s most essential that the center of the car remain clean and clear. This single space relates to the health of all those in the car. That’s enough of a reason to make sure that energies are smooth and flowing, just like the ride! Lastly, adding ten drops of lemon essential oil to an atomizer bottle filled with spring water and spritzing the inside of the car will help dispel odors and bring a bright citrus scent to your travel experience. Following any of these Feng Che guidelines will add another passenger to your trip, the one called peace.
