Armoreum Feng Shui

DRUMS - In terms of Space Clearing, drums can be used very effectively in Purification by Sound in the same way as Clapping, which includes your hands, clap sticks (two sticks that you bang together), rattles, or shakers. Much shamanic work is based on the rhythm of the drum. The deep, piercing vibration of a well-tuned drum dislodges and disperses low-frequency stuck Qi.

BELLS - The vibration of a high-quality bell will disperse minute levels of stuck energy which simple clapping and/or drumming cannot dislodge. Energy chimes (a resonant metal rod mounted on )Bells also induce a resonance of sound that continues to vibrate in your environment for a long time.

ENERGY CHIMES are single, resonant, metal rods mounted on wood bases. When struck, they sing out a penetrating, pure, single-frequency tone, like a single bar on a xylophone; their purpose is the same as for a Bell.

TUNING FORKS are hand-held, resonant, metal instruments. When struck, like an Energy Chime, they sing out a piercing, single-frequency tone; their purpose, of course, is the same as for a Bell.

 

FLOWERS - Flowers form an integral part of all Space Clearing and consecration ceremonies. Always use fresh flowers and, if possible, pick them yourself from a living plant. Remember to ask permission from the plant before doing so.

STONES - One very easy way to anchor energy is to position stones (or Crystals or Coins) in each of the corners of the space. You visualize the stones fixing the energy in place, very much as you might use stones to weigh down the canopy of a tent so that it won’t blow away in the wind. This principle is specifically and directly applied when "staking a claim" for the mineral rights in a gold mining claim; in Feng Shui we "stake out" the four corners of the energetic, Ba Gua claim.

CANDLES are important in Space Clearing ceremonies. The act of lighting them attracts Qi, and if performing specific techniques for Space Clearing, the act of lighting activates the entire ceremony.

For basic Space Clearing, one can create a candlelit matrix throughout all the main rooms of the building. You will experience an even greater uplift in the vibration of the space if you position extra candles in such a way that they form an illuminated energy matrix around the whole building. In other words, when you stand by any one lighted candle, you can always see the next one, and when you move to that one you can see the next one in line, and so on. To achieve this, some candles will be positioned in rooms and others will be located in passageways to form connection points between the candles in the rooms.

SALT - There is enough salt in the oceans of the world to cover all the continents with a layer almost five hundred feet thick. Every culture in the world uses it as a powerful agent of purification. In Europe, it used to be a common practice to sprinkle a pinch of salt out of the front door before everyone went to bed at night to ensure safety during sleep. Sumo wrestlers throw salt to purify the space energetically before they engage physically with one another. In natural healing practices, salt is held in high esteem because of its powerful antiseptic properties.

To enhance basic Space Clearing procedures, you can begin by sprinkling a (thin) line of salt in a circular pattern around the outside of the structure. Additionally, place a line of salt across every threshold, especially the main entrance. For deeper cleansing, put salt in every corner and in the middle of every room (it can be put in small bowls if preferred). For very, very deep cleansings, throw salt everywhere.

If you have a room in your home that you use for healing or meditation, you may like to keep a bowl of salt in there all the time, but do remember to refresh it every day. Salt can lower the vibration of a space rather than raise it once it has become saturated with impurities. You can also put a bowl of salt next to your bed or put a circle of salt around your bed to improve the quality of your sleep.
