Feng Shui Moving Into New House

Introduction

Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese practice of harnessing the energy of the universe and manipulating it to create harmonious, balanced surroundings. Through careful placement and orientation of furniture, décor and other elements within a dwelling, Feng Shui has been known to organize energy flow in order to encourage positive energy, good luck and balance.

Furthermore, natural elements such as plants and wood items like bookshelves and trinkets can be added to enhance the ambience. Additionally, it is suggested that mirrors are placed near entryways or windows for their reflective properties that deflect negative energies. Lastly, the incorporation of “Wu Xing” (Five Elements Theory) should be considered where earth tones bring stability; wood invokes growth; water creates a feeling of calm; fire radiates enthusiasm; metal attracts focus.

Preparing for the Move

Once all these have been done properly, it will ensure that your Feng Shui practice is successful for years to come!



Energetically Cleaning the Home

If you are practicing traditional Feng Shui, it is important to cleanse the home energetically before moving into your new house. Common steps to do this include burning incense, setting up either Chinese or Tibetan singing bowls, ringing a bell while walking through each room of the house, and playing energizing music in every room. Additionally, using essential oils such as lemongrass, eucalyptus, cedarwood or sage are said to promote positive energy flow. It is also commonly suggested to start by decluttering the space since any clutter can act as a blockage for good luck and chi energy. Finally, be sure to display items representing five elements– wood, fire, earth, metal and water-as these five elements bring balance and harmony into the home.

Establishing a Balanced Home

One of the best ways to bring balance and harmony into a home through Feng Shui design is by using the 5 elements. These include wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Consider where each element can be implemented around your house. For example, you can use wooden furniture and decor for areas representing growth and expansion such as entranceways or in the main living area. Fire represents passion and energy – this could be displayed with a fireplace or red-coloured accessories near your desk. Earth represents stability – incorporate pottery, straw mats, or natural stone items for this one. Metal for strength – think metal wind chimes or lanterns hung from the ceiling in your dining room or cook’s kitchen. Finally, water supports creativity – add a fountain feature in a hallway or invest in a deep blue rug for an office space. Combining these elements will help to create both visual balance and positive energy flow throughout your new home.

Positioning Furniture and Artwork

The “bagua” is an energy map used in Feng Shui. It is made up of nine sections, each with its own energies that correspond to various aspects of life- wealth, relationships, health, etc. To use it to determine where to place furniture and artwork in your new house, you first need to locate the front entrance and figure out which direction the door faces. Then divide the area into nine equal parts using either a circle or a square shape so that each section corresponds to one of these life areas. Finally, you can use this map as a guide for where to place furniture and artwork in your new home. For example, if you want to bring success or abundance into your home, then you’d position items according to the Wealth and Prosperity section of the bagua so that they are stimulating the relevant energy flow. On the other hand, if higher levels of creativity is what you desire, than furnishings and art pieces from the Creativity & Children sector would work better. Therefore by using this age-old practice of Feng Shui and it’s associated bagua poer map – you can bring balance into your home whilst optimising its potential to manifest results around all eight life areas!

Growing Your Feng Shui Garden
