CHINESE NEW YEAR 2021 STARTS ON FRIDAY – HOW TO PREPARE

February 10, 2021 by Master Simona

 

2021 Year of the OX

 

Chinese New Year 2021 for the Year of the Ox starts on February 12 (at sun down of the night before).

To View our 2021 Feng Shui Video Forecast, click here.

Since we are all spending a lot more time in our homes than ever before, this the perfect time to have a Feng Shui Consultation for your home (and home office) to make sure the New Year will support your living and working environment at its best.

Here are my key tips on how to prepare your house and yourself to receive the prosperous vibrancy of this New Year:

Discard anything that is broken or unfixable. Even things you have meant to fix for a long time but have still been left sitting there. This can mean anything: clothing, furniture, bikes, cars, or anything that has just been sitting there collecting dust. The general rule is either fix it or toss it now. For every one of these broken or unfixable items is holding back a piece of your energy. However, the simple act of fixing or letting go of these items will release the quantum particle of your own energy you have left trapped in them. This is a technique to disengaged your energy from something that doesn’t work, so you can direct it towards more efficient pursuits.

Ideally, this is the very best time for an early spring cleaning. Though you may have already done so in preparation of the Winter Holidays, this is a spring cleaning with a purpose. While you are actually dusting off, brushing up, and polishing up things, you are also removing stagnant energy from every room of the house and opening up the space for the life-force of the New Year to come in.

You can find some useful Feng Shui Home Organizing tips in our video class here.

Also, check out our upcoming class on FENG SHUI HOUSE ORGANIZING starting on April 17, 2021 and take advantage of our early registration promotion.
For the following 6-weeks, we’ll work together on decluttering, clearing and sprucing up our residence room by room, and we’ll get the energy flowing and thriving again.
You can have your housekeeper, or your friends and children helping you out. In fact, often because they are not as attached to the items involved as you are in the process, they may help you move through it all faster and more effectively.
This class will be recorded, and if you cannot attend Live, the Video recording links will be forwarded to you after each class.

Register for our 6-Weeks FENG SHUI HOUSE ORGANIZING class here

Why is it so important to fix all these things before the New Year starts?

Because the newly arriving energy of the year can either be supportive for you or not supportive. This is especially true this Year for the Chinese sign of the Ox and the Sheep. If you are stuck for a whole year with un-supportive energy, all things that are precarious in your life—physically, financially, and in your relationships—will come back to haunt you over the next 12 months. And so, it is much easier preventing the drama from happening just by doing these few easy steps above.

Let me know when you’d like to schedule your consultation for the New Year. Since you are cleaning and decluttering your space, you might as well take this time to implement a little more Feng Shui! Call me at 310-860-8989 to schedule an appointment.

SPRING BEGINS TODAY – LI CHUN

February 3, 2021 by Master Simona

 

The Li Chun (also called, Spring Stand or End of Yin, Beginning of Yang) is the midpoint between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox. It is one of the 4 LI or 4 Beginnings, it is based on the Solar Calendar, and it marks the official beginning of Spring.

It is also considered the beginning of the Feng Shui year. This year it occurs on February 3 at 11:08 pm.

This is when the official energy of the New Year takes hold and begin to manifest the Yang of the New Year, affecting us thru our houses, office and other spaces where we live and work.

The official Chinese New Year (which is based on the Lunar Calendar) will be on February 12.

On Spring Stand, the Yearly Trigram changes. This Year, our buildings are ruled by the Qian Trigram, which bring good leadership, as well as personal and career achievements.

On that day, we update the Feng Shui corrections in our homes and offices, as we discussed during our 2021 Year of the OX Forecast last month. If you missed the Live Webinar presentation, you can get the playback video at www.FengShuiTrainingCenter.com

FENG SHUI AND HUMAN CENTERED DESIGN IN INTERIORS & ARCHITECTURE

February 18, 2020 by Master Simona

 

Feng Shui Human Centered Design

Among the multitude of stylistic and technological choices that have become available in recent years, Classical or Scientific Feng Shui or the Chinese Science of Placement, has become one of today’s most fashionable trends for home and business owners. But what truly lies behind this popular, yet mysterious practice?

Properly applied, Feng Shui can help balance the energy flow in our environment. It can enable us to take advantage of favorable environments in positively energetic, healthy and harmonious houses and/or work places.

it’s a very sophisticated form of environmental psycology where you’d consider the person’s personal “energy” (Qi) and then match it to their living and working environment. From landscape design to architectural and interior design features such as colors, lighting and furniture layout, home and business owners can use this ancient secret while they are in the process of building a new house or transforming an old one.

The objective is to transform a house into a dream house, and a work place into a productive and successful environment.

The roots of Classical Yang Sang Feng Shui  (our legacy school of Feng Shui) are very ancient; its basic principles are the same as those of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. It is a natural science that treats the environment as an integral part of the art of living and creates perosnalized design around each building’s occupants.

In the 21th century, laws of physics like electromagnetism, thermodynamics and binary mathematic validated the basis upon which this ancient discipline was created over 2,000 years ago. In addition, the inclusion of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the WHO (World Health Organization) confirms the accuracy of the results obtained over 2,000 years ago thru systematic sperimentation once investigated with modern science. However, the language with which Feng Shui is explained is very ancient and rich in symbols, giving the appearance of a mysterious and obscure discipline. In fact, Feng Shui is extremely practical and straighforwrad, once the proper interpretation is made, and the applications are themselves very clear and sound.

Because of its power and effectiveness, Feng Shui knowledge was traditionally a guarded secret, one that was not accessible to the general population. The teachings were transmitted orally from Masters to a limited number of students; confidentiality was strictly required.

These ancient scholars are the equivalent of today’s scientists. They saw the world as a uniqum in which ‘life-force energy’, or Qi, was the main component. They believed that most illnesses could be prevented and that people’s well being could be preserved and reinforced by applying Classical Feng Shui to ensure a proper flow of Qi in the environment, and Tai Qi, Qi Gong, Shiatsu Massage and Acupuncture to ensure a proper flow of Qi in the body. Like those ancient scholars, today’s Feng Shui masters understand the pattern of this energy flow; they understood that any living creature could benefit from this technique, especially humankind.

Seasonal cycles, locations, orientations and weather conditions could, however, create imbalances. The ancient scholars therefore created formulas that continue to be applied today to understand the forces of nature by analyzing the Qi frequencies and the combination of elements or the lack of elements that make up our environment. They acknowledged that every element in the natural world is constituted of the ‘life force’, or Qi.
According to them these energy types correspond to materials that exist in nature, such as Earth, Fire, Metal, Water and Wood and there is a color scheme that corresponds to each energy type.

Human beings were also analyzed in terms of their elemental energy groups; these analyses determined their compatibility with the surrounding environment and the results were usually subtle or very obvious, direct or indirect. In order to counteract imbalances in the environment and restore harmony to our human-environmental interaction, the ancients applied corrective prescriptions based on elaborate formulae they created.

More recently, studies conducted on geopathological stress (an illness caused by exposure to adverse earth ’emissions’ such as radon or gamma rays) have shown evidence of the relationship between people’s well being and the natural energies. While negative energy can adversely affect the nervous system, the genetic code and the immune system, positive energy can sustain our well being, enhance our ability to counteract stressful situations and increase our potential to succeed.

Properly applied, Feng Shui can help balance the energy flow in our environment, which in turn can enable us to take advantage of energetic, healthy and harmonious houses. As mentioned earlier the objective of Feng Shui is to turn a house into a dream house, or an office into the most productive workspace, by maximizing the health and happiness of the inhabitants. And this is why Feng Shui is the original Human-Centered Design Theory ever created.

CHINESE NEW YEAR 2020: HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE YEAR OF THE METAL RAT

January 17, 2020 by Master Simona

Chinese New Year 2020

 

Chinese New Year 2020 is the year of the Metal Rat and it is going to be on January 25 (starting sun down the night before), while the “Spring Stand” or Li Chun is on February 4 at 5:15 pm.

Register Here for our upcoming 2020 The Year of The Metal Rat  free live webinar on Jan 18, 2020 at 11am PT (2pm East, 1pm Central).

In Feng Shui, the “Spring Stand” is a particularly big deal (based on Seasons Sun’s cycle), even more so than the Traditional New Year (based on Lunar cycle). This is so because the “Spring Stand” is the midpoint between the Winter Solstice (December 21) and the Spring Equinox (March 21).

This is the official time when the Yin-ness of Winter ends and the Yang-ness of Spring begins.
Hence the definition: “The end of Yin, the beginning of Yang” (hence the term “Spring Stand”).

In a nutshell:
The Spring Stand marks the seasonal transition from Winter to Spring: it is when the energy of the New Year begins to manifest at its strongest.

So, what does it all mean?

It means that the energy of the previous year is fully exhausted and that on Spring Stand day, the New Year’s new, vibrant energy is going to come in, like a newborn baby.

This is why, if you have done any business with Hong Kong or Asia, you have noticed that the month of January in general is not a good month to start any new business ventures—contrary to us in the West where we love to implement our New Year’s resolutions on January 1.

This is an acknowledgment that the energy globally is exhausted and so what is the point of starting something new now? You might as well just wait until after the Chinese New Year and the Spring Stand when the energy is fresh and vibrant.

But how do we prepare for it to make sure we get the very best out of this New Year’s energy?

Below I have included the 4 main things I recommend for all my clients to do. In addition, this is the perfect time to have a Feng Shui Consultation for your home or office to make sure the New Year will support your living and working environment at its best.

Also don’t forget to attend our Free, Live, 1-Hour Online Webinar Presentation for the 2020 Feng Shui Forecast, the Year of the Rat, on Saturday January 18 at 11 AM, PST. If you have not registered for it yet, you can do so Here.

Here are my 4 key tips on how to prepare your house and yourself to receive the prosperous vibrancy of this New Year:

  • Go through your house, garage, office, and any building you own and discard anything that is broken or unfixable. Even things you have meant to fix for a long time but have still been left sitting there forever (because you didn’t have the time); they all have to go. And I mean everything: clothing, furniture, bikes, cars, or anything that has just been sitting there collecting dust; either fix it or toss it now. For every one of these broken or unfixable items is holding back a piece of your energy if you let it continue to just sit there. However, the simple act of fixing or letting go of these items will release the quantum particle of your own energy you have left trapped in them. This is a technique to bring more of your own energy back to you.
  • Ideally, this is the very best time for spring cleaning. Though you may have already done so in preparation of the Holidays, this is a spring cleaning with a purpose. While you are actually dusting off, brushing up, and polishing up things, you are also removing stagnant energy from every room of the house and opening up the space for the life-force of the New Year to come in. I promise you’ll feel the difference immediately!

P.S.: This and tip 1 above are not a martyrdom exercise. You can have a professional organizer, your housekeeper, or your friends and children help out. In fact, often because they are not as attached to the items involved as you are in the process, they may help you move through it all faster and more effectively. The real point is “just get it done” however you can. I also like the Marie Kondo style of house organizing (FYI, just in case you need some inspiration).

  • Next, redecorate some areas based on the new Feng Shui energy. When I consult with you on your house, I will tell you where the best locations are and where the bad locations are throughout it. This way we can fix or avoid the bad spots and rearrange the furniture so you can spend more time in the good areas instead of the bad ones. In the process, we may also shift some of the furniture from room to room too, so you’ll have a house makeover in addition to an energy makeover. (You will not need to buy new furniture, unless you want to.)
  • After doing all this work, take a few minutes to sit down and think about people and circumstances in your life that are broken, especially ones that upset you a bit (or a lot) over the past year. Can they be mended? Relationships are not like furniture. Most time it is easier to fix them than replace them. Can you do that? What would it take for you to do that? Holding a grudge into the New Year is a sure way to guarantee the same problem or circumstance will continue on. Could this be a good opportunity to fix what is broken with the relationships involved in your life? No matter how bad things are, if you are willing to make amends and kindly allow others to do the same with you, there is no relationship that can’t be fixed (even if fixing it means finally letting it go). This is especially true if we are late into our years in life; for if there is life, there is still hope. Don’t let it get too late. And what if they don’t want to mend the relationship with you? As long as you have honestly done all you could to mend your side of the fence then there is nothing more you can do. (Just be honest with yourself in the process and make sure you really are doing all you can.)

Why is it so important to fix all these things before the New Year starts? Because the newly arriving energy of the year can either be supportive for you or not supportive. If you are stuck for a whole year with un-supportive energy all things that are precarious in your life—physically, health-wise, and in your relationships—will come back to haunt you. You can bet on that! And there’s nothing better than preventing the drama from happening just by doing these 4 tips.

And don’t forget to attend our 1 hour, Live Online Webinar Presentation on the 2020 Feng Shui Forecast, the Year of the Rat, on January 18 at 11 AM, PST (2pm East, 1pm Central) . The session is Free, but you do need to Register Here to receive the log in link.

Let me know when you’d like to schedule your consultation for the New Year. Since you are cleaning and decluttering your space, you might as well let me tell you how to rearrange your furniture now too for maximum benefit for this New Year! Call me at 310-860-8989 to schedule an appointment. See you soon!

HAUNTED HOUSE OR BAD FENG SHUI?

October 14, 2019 by Master Simona

It is not uncommon in my profession to have people come up to me and say, “I have a ghost in my house. How do I get rid of it?“

After talking a bit more in depth, I often discover that the person has come to the conclusion that the house must have a ghost because things have gone down the drain ever since having moved in. “I moved here from Las Vegas because I was offered this wonderful job and a week after moving in, I lost it,” one client told me and, “My husband and I moved in here and shortly after began having relationship problems until eventually we separated and later got a divorce” another said.

More often than not these kinds of scenarios are very clear examples of houses with bad Feng Shui. A beginner may not be able to discern the difference between bad Feng Shui and ghosts. Let me give you some examples:

Feng Shui Tip #1:  If you move in to a new house and you seem to have a bad streak of luck (meaning not just one bad thing happens, but one bad thing keeps happening after the other), get some information about the previous owners, either directly or via real estate agents or the neighbors. If the house has had a history of bad luck chances are that the energy of the building (a.k.a. the Feng Shui) has had problems since it’s inception that ended up effecting the previous occupants adversely, just as it is now affecting you.

More explicitly, if a house appears to have had bad luck on a financial level– job losses, bankruptcy, poor investments– chance are this house has a Feng Shui problem with the energy of finances. On the other hand, a house that has been witnessing broken relationships, health problems, or tragic and/or sudden deaths is definitely a house with problems on the Feng Shui of health and relationships. Some really adverse houses may suffer both.

Using some proper Feng Shui corrections will give you the best results to correct these problems if you plan to stay.

Feng Shui Tip #2:  Houses tend to record energies (like memories) from the previous owners, but not their life experience. This happens when you see a ghost in your house, but it doesn’t seem to notice you– it is just walking down the hallway or sitting by the window.

This phenomenon, observed and defined as a “recorded effect” by ghosts experts in England several years ago, acknowledged the “energy imprint” of previous owners that is recorded by the house like a memory and played back randomly. So what you’re seeing is not actually a ghost, but a “playback” of some previous owner’s life and it doesn’t have much consequence on you and your life.

To clear these pockets of energy a good, thorough physical cleaning-out of the space and possibly some changes in old accessories and furnishings (carpet, wood paneling, wall paints, furniture) can do wonders to erase the old house memories.

Feng Shui Tip #3:  The truly haunted houses are those that have one live-in entity– or more– with whom more than one member of the family has interacted, perhaps several times.

These entities are “stuck” and so “earth bounded” that their energy is perceived by a living person as a very intense emotional energy field. (For example, “blinding fear”– which many people experience in the presence of such ghosts– is actually not their own energy but part of the entity’s energy field.)

In many cases the entity is able to move physical objects (for example, throwing books from a shelf across the room), and they sometimes do this maliciously, but most of the time they do it simply out of the desire to be noticed and to initiate some kind of communication with the living occupants. In some cases they can also produce voice-like sounds.

Most of the time the communication is telepathic, meaning you’d hear the voice in your head and know is not your own voice but you do not know where it is coming from. In this kind of situation it is perfectly okay to address the entity as if it were a living person and communicate with them verbally out loud by saying, “Please Go Away”

There is no need to be scared, if you can manage not to be. Also, this is definitely a good time for “Ghostbusters” to be called in, or, more traditionally, Shamans and Priests who have been trained in helping the stuck entities disengaged from the earthly plane and move on and away from your place– or even eliminate any malicious entity who may be causing some real problems entirely.

Are you spooked yet?

I thought you may also like to know that the instances of real haunted house and house possession as stated in number three are really very limited. House memories playback in number two are far more popular and yet, only a small percentage of “bad energy houses” can be attributed to that. Bad Feng Shui houses in number one are, fortunately or unfortunately, a lot more common but also luckily, more fixable. You can do it yourself or ask the help of a qualified Feng Shui consultant to help you set the house straight and get rid of the “bad luck” energy. Let me know if I can be of any assistance.

7 Feng Shui House Tips : How to Boost Your Energy this Spring

April 30, 2019 by Master Simona

7 tips to boost your Feng Shui House Energy

Find in which direction is your power spot and set it up to spend more time in it.

Spring is Here!! Are you ready to boost the Feng Shui energy of your house?

On an energy level, doing a “spring cleaning” stirs up and activates multiple areas in your house that relate to your Feng Shui “personal life destiny”. This opens up the space and creates a vacuum effects that attracts new opportunities faster than before.

Find your power spot based on your Animal sign

Contrary to popular belief, for each of us there is an area for health, friends, romance, marriage, career and financial success. And it is based on our year of birth.
(If you do not know your Chinese animal sign, you can find it here ).

But because these areas are based primarily on your specific date of birth, they are in a different directions from person to person and consequently from house to house.What works for you, may not work for your spouse, or for your children.
Here are tips to improve your Feng Shui house for each of you and your family members based on your date of birth.
Feng Shui, as you know, deals with life-force energy (Qi). There are many levels of life-force energy in a building, all interacting together:

There is the energy of the building, the energy of the year (month and day), the energy of other buildings, streets, cars surrounding the building, and the energy of all the people living and working inside said building.
During a consultation, the Feng Shui master has to take into consideration all of these levels and make suggestions that are aesthetically pleasing,  financially reasonable, and acknowledge these complex energetic dynamics.

Feng Shui is not just a matter of good design. The Feng Shui Master understands what is causing the problem on an energy level, or having negative effects on your life, and give you directions on how to mitigate adverse energy (Sha) and activate favorable energy (Qi).

2) What can Spring cleaning do for Us?

There are multiple ways that you can boost the energy in your house or office. The simplest is to do a thorough spring cleaning and focus on these specific areas.
It is never too late (or too early) to reorganize your house and your life.The simple process of going through your belongings and identifying what is no longer useful or important to you and getting rid of it is highly liberating on a psychological level. It helps you to refocus and clear your slate so that you can then create new things to look forward in your life.

On an energy level, this “spring cleaning” stirs up and activates multiple areas in your house that relate to your “personal life destiny” – opening up the space and creating room to bring in new opportunities.
For each of us based on our date of birth, there is an area for health, friends, romance, marriage, career and financial success.
Because these areas are based primarily on your date of birth, they are in a different directions from person to person and consequently from house to house.Again, what works for you, may not work for your spouse, or for your children. Hence, the practice of doing a thorough house cleaning will ensure you hit all of the good areas for everybody.

A while back, I had a client who became depressed after being laid off from work. To take her mind off of her financial struggle, she decided to give her house a once-over, cleaning the entire house with the exception of the storage room in the back (where she never spent any time).

Later, during one of my classes, she found out that that room was in a direction that related to her own date of birth and her Chinese astrological sign. This part of the house corresponded to her personal energy: The stagnant and cluttered space contributed to her own stagnation and frustration.

After the class, she went home and decided to reorganize the storage room, and, in the process, she began spending much more time there. Soon, while still in the process in fact, she had some interesting business ideas and decided to transform this room into her office (she moved her stored belongings, now organized in numbered plastic containers, into a separate storage unit).

She had barely gotten her computer situated on a new desk, when the phone rang with her first important business contact. Then another, and another. The energy was definitely flowing! She has since developed her own manufacturing and import business and has left the corporate world behind.

3) Find Your Sign’s Direction (so that you can activate it during the Spring Cleaning)

Below, I have listed the direction corresponding to each sign (in Chinese astrology), so that you can identify the section of your house that corresponds to your own sign (some directions are associated with more than one sign).

RAT ———–North
OX ————NorthEast
TIGER ——–NorthEast
RABBIT ——-East
DRAGON ——-SouthEast
SNAKE ——–SouthEast
HORSE ——–South
SHEEP ——–SouthWest
MONKEY ——SouthWest
ROOSTER —–West
DOG ——— NorthWest
PIG ———- NorthWest

 

4) Our 7 Ways to Boost the Feng Shui Energy in Your House in Your SIgn’s Direction

Once you found your sign’s direction, these are 7 tips to make it to use for your benefit:

Feng Shui Tip 1 : Identify the area of the house that corresponds to your birth animal. It could be a corner, or it could be a middle section of a room or wall. I recommend using a compass to make sure you identify the correct magnetic direction.

Feng Shui Tip 2: Clean and organize the area, removing all clutter. It doesn’t matter if it is a bedroom, bathroom, closet, or pantry. That section relates to you personally, so any chaos in there is going to manifest as chaos in your life, too.

Feng Shui Tip 3
: Any redecoration of this area is going to give a further boosting to your own personal life as well. This is recommended especially if you’re going through hard times and everything seems particularly bad. Redecoration doesn’t have to be major; it can be as simple as changing the linens, painting a wall, or rearranging the furniture.

Feng Shui Tip 4: Make sure this area is well lit at all times. Light is Yang and intensifies the energy, boosting it up even more.

Feng Shui Tip 5:If the area of your house corresponding to your birth sign is missing, don’t panic: You can go through the same process with the corresponding section of your bedroom. For example: If you are a Tiger and the North East section of the house is missing, locate the North East section of your bedroom and boost the energy there, as described above. This works particularly well for apartments.

Feng Shui Tip 6: If you live in a house, you can clean and de-clutter both inside the house and the corresponding area in the garden just outside. If this section of the house is missing, create a sitting area (complete with light) outside, in the space where the missing corner would have been, to activate it.

Feng Shui Tip 7: I recommend that this cleaning, de-cluttering, and organizing be done on a regular basis, so that the energy never stagnates. In fact, I actually recommend you do this throughout house at least once a year, preferably in the spring, since spring is when the Life-force energy of the New Year begins and is at its strongest. That way, you’ll maximize the positive changes that you can make in your environment and in your personal life.
