Feng Shui to accelerate Chi

    In Europe or in USA you hardly will find a house which is 100% built according to the Feng Shui rules. Now the time is come to spread the Feng Shui knowledge and to remedy all these houses to help the humans to live a better life in future.
Depending upon each individuals goals, one may focus on certain areas of their life - such as family harmony, prosperity, marital bliss, good health, etc. In Feng Shui, these are called the Eight Life Aspirations
There should be no shoes or slippers lying around outside the main door of your house. Remove it if you can. Allow the space at the main door to be free and clear. The chi (energy) rides with the wind and will collect all the smell of those shoes and slippers into your house causing sickness. Ch'i then travels about in your house looking for water to stay but if there are no water fountains or fish tanks, then the Ch'i will be dispersed by the wind.
   
There should be no television sets in your bedrooms: If you cannot get rid of that habit then after watching the television cover it with a plastic table cloth. Remember it has to be plastic and not simply cloth.
There should be no mirrors opposite your bed or at the side of your bed. Mirrors opposite the bed can attract a third party to the relationship. Therefore, do not place mirrors anywhere you like and especially in your bedroom.
Your bed should always have a solid wall behind you. This is important if you wish to have good rest. A solid wall simply means that you can go into deeper sleep and therefore enables you to have good rest so that when you wake up in the morning, you will feel fresh and well rested. This also allows you to concentrate on your work better.
There should be no beam on top of your bed. The beam above causes chi to be pressured thus enabling you to have pressures in life. Therefore, don't place furniture underneath it or alternatively level the beam. But make sure if you choose the latter, it is important that you have enough height for that space.
Always open your bedroom windows at least once in 20 minutes a day to allow fresh chi to come in. If not you will be sleeping with stale chi every night. And if that happens, then how can you expect your life to have good fortune? So open the window and never mind if dust comes in! The good fortune that you can have will far exceed the time you take to clean off the dust.
   Try not to allow children to sleep on mattresses on the floor. This allows young children not to fall off beds but it also causes young children to fall sick frequently. The reason is: chi is not able to flow underneath the bed. Ideally, chi should circulate around the mattress where the children sleep to allow them to be healthy. Do not allow children to sleep on double bunk beds even if it means saving space. The child sleeping underneath will not have "fresh chi" and so his health might be weak. But if this is due to space constraints, then monitor your child's health or add in a metal 6 rods wind chime or a crystal sphere, to break up the "stale chi" around his bed.
For young children, try to have their back to the wall when they write. It is important there should be a solid wall behind the children's writing table. This allows the child to have support so that he can sit there and study longer.
   Place an indoor water fountain in your home, position in a favorable area to attract whatever you want in your life.
If you already have a fish tank in your house, be careful. A fish tank placed correctly can bring about greater fortune, as you will tap on the "Divine Water Dragon's Den". But if you tap wrongly, it can cause you to have lawsuits, bankruptcy, work pressure, and problems. If you noticed any of these after placing the fish tank for approximately four months, shift your fish tank to another location.

In your kitchen, ensure that opposite your stove there is no refrigerator, washing machine, washbasin and toilet. The fire and water clash causing family members to have disagreements.
If you have a lot of work pressure, maybe it's the marble table that you have in your dinning room that causes you to have those problems. Remove that marble table and change to a wooden one or alternatively live with that work pressure!
    Do not use a red sofa set. The colour red represents the element of fire. And for Feng Shui, some places simply cannot have the colour red in that sector. A red sofa sets gives rise to heavy work pressure.
   Keep mirrors clean and bright. If you are using the mirror to look into then it needs to be at head height. Mirrors used as remedies should be small and discreet. It is better still to use the Pa Kwa mirrors which have eight triagrams on them. When deflecting, Sha mirrors should be placed so they reflect outwards. To channel chi inside the house you must make sure they are angled properly. Avoid mirrors that have pictures engraved or printed on them. Oval mirrors are best and they should be of high quality. Make sure to have a large mirror angled on a wall so it reflects a view into the room when you are sitting in your favorite chair or lying in bed.
