Feng Shui Water And Air

Your home is your refuge. It is where you re-charge your energy like a battery. It is so important to make it a sacred, safe, healing place for you and your family.

Most Feng Shui masters say that clogged sinks and shower drains, as well as plugged up toilets, stagnate energy and block prosperity, abundance and wealth. They deplete finances.

Stagnant water creates mildew, which has been known to cause respiratory problems, neurological problems and can weaken the immune system. Stagnant water also can create an energy flow issue with travel, ambition and energy. If you are feeling low energy, especially if it is only when you are in your house, check your drains!

A natural way to clear your drains is using baking soda and vinegar. It is inexpensive and is better for Mother Earth. You will also spare your family from breathing in toxic fumes from commercial drain cleaners.  If you do this once a month it will help prevent the beginnings of clogged drains which can create problems before you even realize there is an energy issue.

A dripping tap also creates a disturbance in the energy of a house and should be fixed immediately. Indoor fountains are a wonderful way to keep water energy flowing in your home. Make sure that the fountain is kept clean and not allowed to grow mold. The water should be moving and not stagnant.

Air is essential to the energy of a house. It is so important to have fresh air coming in as often as possible. It reduces the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning, and helps to filter out the many toxins we breath in at home.

Air also moves energy. I always air out my house after guests leave. It clears out old energy and brings in nature’s energy. Unfortunately, even though they are necessary and becoming even more necessary with harsher weather, air conditioning and heaters bring in used, recycled ‘dead air.’ This can create havoc with your aura. Hair blow dryers are also hard on the aura.

But, just like air can create problems with your aura, natural fresh wind can clean the aura. If you are drained, depressed or around negative people, stand in the wind and allow it to clean you out. It helps to consciously think about the things you want removed from your thoughts and aura, then open your arms and let it all go with the wind.

Plants are a wonderful way to bring positive energy and life force into your home. They also filter out impurities in the air. However, a dying and neglected plant will bring bad luck and make you sick. Make sure the plant is not under or over watered.

Remember water in Feng Shui is energy. It is symbolic of your life force. We are 70% water, so if we dry up a plant, we will feel under nourished, tired and dehydrated. If we drown a plant, we will feel sluggish and slowed down. Make sure the leaves are cut off if they are dead. Anything dead in the home will drain you. The best plants for air filtration are Boston Fern, Palms, Golden Pothos, Rubber Plants, English Ivy, and Peace Lily.
