Activating your Eight Sectors of Life Aspiration in Feng Shui

After determining where the Eight Life Aspirations sectors are located in your home, you will need to decorate and place items that correspond to those sectors. Remember that activating these sectors will benefit everyone in your home.

Don’t confuse this with improving your PERSONAL addresses. Personal addresses must be enhanced using your KUA number.

Don’t spend a lot of money!

You don’t have to go out and spend a lot of money to “Feng Shui” your home! How many people who own a specialty store will tell you THAT? ๐Ÿ™‚ Just look around your house and see what items you have in various places. I’m talking about figurines, plants, wooden objects, metal objects, photos, candles, oil burners, flowers, etc. Then look at the layout of your house that you have made and move the object to the sector that you think best suits it.

When I started to activate my sectors, I found that there were already A LOT of things in my house that worked great for certain sectors. The problem was that sometimes they were not in the RIGHT sector. So all I had to do was rearrange things a bit, and boy, what a difference! For example, I use aromatherapy a lot in my house. I have a crock pot potpourri burner that I had to move to my northeast area due to the earth element. I have another sterling silver oil burner that I had to move to my northwest sector: the metallic element. It didn’t cost me a penny, just the energy to move them to different areas.

Be color conscious.

If you have blue curtains in your northeast section and they will fit a window in the north section, move them and replace them with some beige curtains. Keep the colors of each sector in mind as you rearrange things around the house.

“Feng Shui” your MIND.

Get in the habit of looking for articles that help you. Also, keep in mind that Feng Shui is not about oriental art. It’s about where you put certain objects, it doesn’t matter who made them, it only matters what it’s made of, what color it is, what shape it is, and/or what it represents. If you go to a garage sale and find a beautiful picture of a waterfall and take it home, THINK in which sector it should go: Water – Race – North! Reversing that situation, if you are wanting to activate your Career Sector in your house, go to garage sales and look for things that have to do with WATER. It’s very easy to do, once you get used to it. Make yourself a little 3×5 “cheat sheet” card that has your sectors and what colors to use etc. and carry it in your wallet if necessary.

NORTH section:

The northern part of your house is considered your Career Prospect Sector

Use the colors blue and black as much as possible in this area. Don’t use those overwhelming colors so much.

Have water features here as the element of the North is water. Some examples of water features are: water fountains, paintings of a lake or river, water balloons, animals that live in water (turtles, fish, etc.) either live or ceramic, anything with wavy lines .

NORTHEASTERN Sector

The Northeast sector governs education, spirituality, knowledge and personal growth

Use beige or very light brown in this area

Use Earth type decorations here. Examples could be plants, brown objects, globe, and world map. Hanging crystals and a Buddha is also good for this area.

EAST Sector

The East Sector governs family relationships and health. I’ll split the two of these up a bit more:

Family Relations – Harmony

Clearing clutter is the most important way to create harmony in your home. I have personally found that when my office is messy, my kids seem to get a bit unruly. (They spend a lot of time in my office because that’s where I usually hang out! LOL) Also, it sounds silly, but when I’m behind on clothes, they tend to get unruly too. Coincidence? I doubt it! The second most important way is to KEEP the mess.

Use green and brown colors in this area.

Activate this area with: dragons, wooden objects, crystals, objects that represent the family unit, such as a family of dogs, a family of turtles, figurines of children playing, photos of your family in wooden frames, plants in colored pots earth or ceramic

Take steps to activate all sectors of your home by placing objects and using colors that correspond to those sectors. If all sectors are energized, you should create harmony in your home.

Health

Green and brown are good colors to wear here, as are black and blue.

Follow the guidelines above in Harmony. Also, look around the house for what are called “poison arrows”โ€”anything sharp, pointy, and angular that looks threatening. Exposed lightning bolts are considered poison arrows. Redirect bad shar chi by using crystals, bamboo flutes, or wind chimes.

Displaying a happy Buddha in the living room of your home is said to bring happiness and health to everyone in your home.

Bamboo plants are a symbol of good health.

Display a turtle in the east corner of your living room for good health.

Use aromatherapy to improve your health, relieve stress, create harmony, and promote general well-being.

SOUTHEAST sector

The southeast corner of your home is the Prosperity and Wealth Sector.

Try to use as much green as you can in this area without going overboard.

Flowers are great in this area. The best types of flowers and plants to use according to Feng Shui are bamboo, orchids, chrysanthemums, and plum blossoms. However, any type of plant will do. Do not use dried flowers, bonsai plants or cacti that are not good to have around the house.

If your bedroom is in the SE corner of your house, don’t put any plants or flowers there. Just try to find curtains, rugs, pillows, etc. that have green tones to enhance the room.

Place a Lucky Cat in the SE corner of your home to attract good fortune.

Create a wealth vase to put in a closet somewhere in your southeast sector. Check out the previous newsletter for tips on creating a wealth vase.

Prosperity – General Guidelines

Hang a set of red string activated doorknob coins on the inside front doorknob. This helps keep money in your home. Don’t put either of these on a back door, which will have the opposite effect. Also, this needs to be at the front door, whether you USE that door or not.

Hang a prosperity bell on the outside of your front doorknob to invite prosperity into your home. Make sure it is tight against the doorknob; otherwise it may bend when closing the door if it gets caught between the door and the door frame. I will be featuring a bell with a stretchable cord this month on my website.

Placing a small Buddha directly in front of your front door will also create positive chi and welcome prosperity into your home. Don’t put the Buddha on the ground. Try to have it at eye level if possible.

Place 3 good luck coins in your wallet or bag to indicate that you will have money at all times.

Place some 3-legged money toads in various places around your house. These can be placed on the floor and unnoticed if desired. You should place one right next to the front door leading into the room. Then, if you can, place another one diagonally across from it, not facing the front door, but to the left or right of the opposite wall the front door is on.

Place FuDogs just inside your front door. They symbolize the protection of the family and the protection of its wealth.

SOUTH sector

The South sector governs recognition and fame. This also covers popularity and reputation.

Use red and various shades of red in this area, including burgundy, pink, hot pink, maroon. Take it easy with bright red, as it’s a very powerful color and could overwhelm things.

Place a sculpture of a crimson bird, soaring eagle, dragon, rectangular shaped crystals, fire elements such as candles, oil burners, bright lights, crystal chandeliers, plants, a fireplace, wood burning stove in this sector. Do not show water features here.

SOUTHWEST sector:

This sector governs Marital Happiness and Romance

Use yellow, beige, red, and orange colors in this area, being very careful not to overdo the red and orange colors. Do not use green or brown in this area if possible.

For plants, use earth tones or ceramic for planters.

When improving this area, be sure to always put things in pairs. Not one and definitely not three, just two of different items that symbolize love and romance for you. Mandarin ducks, lovebirds, and peacocks are good symbols here.

Crystals in the SW sector of your home or bedroom will activate the earth energies of that sector. You can hang them in a window or just have glass ornaments there.

WEST sector

This sector governs the luck of children and also new projects, hobbies, stages of life and pleasure.

Use white, silver, yellow, and gold in this area.

Place white, silver or yellow flowers, hollow wind chimes, bells, metal or earth objects, round objects, ceramic objects, quartz crystal, a sleeping white tiger (MUST be sleeping or don’t put it here), TV, computer , stereo , soapstone objects that represent the family in this area.

NORTHWEST sector

This sector rules mentoring, networking, getting started, meeting influencers, and important meetings.

Use metallic colors here like white, silver, and gold.

Place hollow wind chimes, stone and metal sculptures, any colored objects or metallic materials, metal candle holders, and picture frames in this area.
