Celebrating Chinese New Year: Feng Shui and Crystals
Feng Shui (pronounced Fung Shway) is the ancient Chinese art of
placement to enhance the flow of "vital life energy" known as Qi.
Practitioners believe that rooms, buildings and all environments can
be arranged and decorated in a way that maximizes the flow of Qi and,
resulting in improvements to health and happiness of those who live
in that environment.
"Allow things in your life which make your heart sing, feed your soul
or nourish you on a daily basis."
Although the translation of Feng Shui basically means "Wind and
Water", its scope and breathe are much deeper than this. Feng Shui is
an expression of the oneness and interconnectedness of all things on
all levels and all dimensions. This is a "key concept" in
understanding how our essence relates to everything else around us,
including our environment. As we begin to sense this oneness we then
find that it is possible to gain insight from looking at our
environment on a broader scale. It is often said that "Feng Shui
teaches us what we already know".
Crystals and Gemstones
Crystals symbolize the notion of looking beyond the material world.
Can work in ANY area of the Bagua based on their colors and energetic
properties. Put the natural energy of earth's treasures to work for
you. Make changes in your life with these precious stones. Crystals
work especially well in areas, which require the metal element such
as the West and Northwest sections of your bagua map.
Crystal Bagua Grids
Can work in ANY area of the Bagua based on their colors and energetic
properties. Crystals symolize the notion of looking beyond the
material world. Arrange the stones in a sacred geometric pattern.
They are then consciously 'activated' by connecting a 'line of Light'
between the stones so that they radiate an energy field in the
immediate environment in which they are constructed or are essential
for distant healing.
Crystals can be arranged and used in any feng shui based on their
color, metaphysical properties or associations by direction, element
or trigram.
