Dissolving the blockages within the living space
Transforming the inner barriers
We have spoken in some articles about the change that might be necessary in a house. This transformation can be manifested at personal or spatial level.
Some of us can hardly believe that Feng Shui can act that quickly and in a way which, at a first glance, seems very simple. For these people change might take longer. These persons will be convinced only after having applied the remedies recommended by a qualified Feng Shui consultant and having achieved measurable results.
Those who believe that the remedies of the five elements bring results, but they still have a shadow of a doubt, should know that the negative thoughts will enter their house and will diminish, in a lower or higher degree, the efficacy of those remedies. In other words, change could begin with ourselves, better said with our inner self.
Think that those suspicious thoughts are like small poisoned arrows which interfere with the changes in Feng Shui spirit that you have just applied in your house. Let’s remember that Feng Shui means handling of invisible energies and that we are, ourselves, the greatest source of positive or negative qi. We are the creators of the energy that we spread in our environment. If this energy is positive, changes will be easier and will be lasting in time. If our energies are negative, we will hardly change our way to think and act and the changes might keep us waiting for them.
As we have already discussed in a previous article, about flexibility, I propose you to keep it as a long term approach of the Feng Shui remedies (and ideas). There is no need to believe in Feng Shui as if it was a religion, instead, you need to be convinced that it is something worth to apply in practice. To be yourself convinced by this, you need to apply some remedies and operate modifications in the place where you live. In a short time you will notice the results appearing easily and you will trust the Feng Shui ideas even more. We reach again the ascending spiral we have talked about before, which helps us going on the way we want in life.
Dissolving blockages in the outside space
The blockages in the space where you live can be created by the tangible forces of the objects and physical structures.
It is easy to deal with the forces created by physical objects because they can be moved and rearranged such a way that energies circulate in a harmonious way. The rule we must guide ourselves by is that energies should flow slowly, following curved lines with smooth meanders. It is not very well that energies flow directly and quickly.
Also, big furniture, columns (sustaining pillars) and cross beams on the ceiling should not look like threatening or too imposing. This creates a feeling of hostility or pressure and the qi does not circulate harmoniously anymore, creating mental or health problems.
The circulation (of energies and persons) in the house should be, as much as possible, without obstructions caused by corners, prominent endings or pieces of furniture which stop the flux. Corners or columns can be hidden using plants or you can use mirrors to make them disappear in a symbolic way.
If there are too many things or it is disorder, clean the space and get rid of the unnecessary objects.
If you have too much furniture, you can decide to make more space in the house by eliminating pieces which are not anymore necessary (and which prevent a smooth energy flow). If some furniture is not anymore in a good state, get them repaired. If you have problems with the current water supply devices, call a specialist to fix them. Energy must flow smoothly and this must be manifested at all levels in our house.
Let the flux flow without obstacles and the positive energies will take effect bringing you good health, harmony and prosperity.
