The Rat
…1948, 1960, 1984,1996,2008,2020…..
Wealth and leadership luck

The Rat enjoys wealth and leadership luck, suggesting a year in which you can make good money, gain great loyalty, and achieve high goals. But there is also disease chi and problems caused by the three killings (finance, health and disaster)  Since your luck element is weak, it can be challenging for you to capture happiness.

 

 

The OX
…1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009, 2021……
Incredible possibilities

Feng Shui the saying about handwriting

Feng Shui and the saying about hand writing and signature

The art art of handwriting analysis, graphology, is very similar to Feng Shui.

How does graphology relate to Feng Shui? In Feng Shui, mind and thought are related to the hand, so a person’s writing style offers insight into that person’s personality and can affect their life.

Your handwriting also reveals instant clues about your energy levels, attitudes, trustworthiness, etc. But do you know that you can also develop auspicious handwriting that will bring you success and happiness in whatever you write? This encompasses all aspects of study, work and life, so developing happy handwriting is something everyone can benefit from.

 

Create strength and spirit in your handwriting

Do this by holding your pen with conscious feeling and as you write, visualize the essence of your inner spirit flowing from your hands into your fingers and then into your pen/pencil/brush. As you practice this consciously, you will find that your written word becomes clearer and visually sharper. As you write, be aware of the pressure you are exerting. The secret to generating chi in the fingers is to focus on them. Practice applying just enough pressure on your pen—neither too hard nor too light. Keep your pressure balanced and let your pen flow smoothly. This ensures that your venture is not complicated by obstacles and obstacles.

Always use a good pen whenever possible

In ancient times, ministers at the emperor’s court used exquisite brushes whenever they sat down to compose poetry or write important letters. The art of writing was serious business and good writing implements were prized possessions. At that time they were brushes made of the finest sable hair tied together with the finest silk. Today we have a range of branded gold and platinum pens, crafted to perfection by master craftsmen.

You don’t have to buy any of these limited-edition Mont Blanc etc., although it would be very promising if you could afford it. But invest in the best pen you can afford and infuse it with your spirit and essence. The more you use your special pen to write all your important letters and sign all your documents, the more powerful your writing will become.

Try to hold the pen straight

A clear handwriting indicates that one lives in the present. The worst is handwriting that is slanted backwards, as this suggests a person who is always living in the past and is always looking backwards instead of forwards. It also indicates someone with low self-confidence. This creates the chi of failure rather than success. So try to keep your writing upright. Writing diagonally forward means you often outperform yourself. It does NOT mean looking ahead. Leaning forward can indicate that you are often unprepared for the task at hand. Clear handwriting indicates self-confidence and someone who is fair, upstanding and in control of situations.

Keep your spacing consistent

When your words are evenly spaced, you ensure that what you do always goes according to plan. Your life will benefit from good organisation and well-managed employees. At work, you get along well with people and others find you reliable and responsible. Keeping your handwriting evenly spaced and with straight edges reflects a well-ordered mind. It will then be easier for you to make decisions efficiently and decisively.

Writing with straight and consistent baselines tends to provide a valuable ability to plan ahead and be self-directed. Such people eventually become very self-motivated, a key factor in success.

Good idea to introduce an upstroke

Handwriting experts will tell you that the lack of up-scores at the beginning of words is a sign that you’re being direct, open, and efficient. You say what you feel, outright. For some, that’s a plus. To be successful, however, it takes tact and diplomacy and maybe even a little dance before the main course. Starting your words with an up-slash also means that everything you do has a good, positive beginning. So it’s a good idea to develop some upward strokes in your handwriting.

Create upper loops

To be successful you must have a vision for success. If you want the inner visionary to manifest in you, create upper loops in your handwriting. This stimulates the divine dreamer in you and also boosts your creativity in many ways. However, you should not overdo it. Select specific key alphabets to write with an upper loop. Letters that allow this are fs, ts, hs, etc. If the top loops are completely missing, it means you lack vision. However, this may not be so bad as dreamers sometimes tend to be overly idealistic.

Dot your I’s and cross your T’s

Attention to detail is a major asset and can usually mean the difference between success and failure. It also helps you improve memory skills. If the handwriting is left with an un-dotted i and an uncrossed t, it indicates that the job is still halfway done. This means that projects are started but rarely come to successful results. So how can it lead to success if you write carelessly? Success comes to those who are both careful and thorough. So learn to be careful when crossing your T-points and placing your I-points.

 

Feng Shui the 5 elements and jewellery

Make it personal – your Jewellery and Feng Shui this can be customise

 

You can customise  jewellery by wearing gemstones that best match your birth element. Birth elements are the annual elements that take place every year.

For example, the years of birth of the water elements -the rabbit- are always given on the decade, e.g. 1963, 1975 etc., and on the following year, e.g. In this way, this is done every two years for each of the elements. Use the stones as a guide to wear according to your birth element. If you don’t like these colours and gems, you can always choose a stone based on your Kua number.

Feng Shui and the maintenance

The deferred Millionaire – 8 Feng Shui Areas to maintain your home and build your wealth

In Feng Shui, delaying the maintenance of a home means delaying money. In other words, if you’ve been putting off replacing that cracked window or chopping down a dead tree, you probably won’t get as much money as you could if your house were in good shape.

Why is repairing your home so important to Feng Shui?

In a word: Chi.

A house’s chi, or energy, diminishes when there are leaking faucets or roof, peeling paint, or when it’s dirty and cluttered.

Even the sight of a house that is not in good condition triggers a feeling of depression or sadness.

You see a house – and the people who live in it – that is falling into disrepair. Millionaires live in beautiful, attractive and well-groomed surroundings. If you’ve put off maintaining your home, you could also forego the assets with it.

It’s rare for the house to collapse when a homeowner is successful.

In fact, in most cases, the more successful a homeowner becomes, the more a home represents that success with nice landscaping, fresh paint, clean windows, and a clean interior.

That’s because a home with successful residents often has lawn and cleaning services to help them keep the home in good shape.

But even if you’re not a millionaire, you can live in your home like one, and often you’ll find that when the house is clean, tidy, tidy, and in good repair, you feel better and more confident.

A millionaire’s home tends to be attractive and clean, and by emulating this you increase the chi of your home, which in turn increases your own.

Improving your home improves your life.

When you simply improve the upkeep of your home, your home pays dividends in the form of improved energy, greater opportunity, and more happiness and contentment in life—and, yes, even money.

Utilise these home maintenance tips in the critical areas that will help you create the financial energy of a millionaire around your home.

Start at the beginning.

If your sidewalk is cracked and lifted off the tree roots, opportunity is unlikely to make it to your front door. Give the front of your home some maintenance in the form of a landscaping makeover, including checks on sidewalks, porches, mailboxes, lighting fixtures and the front door. Work on your attractiveness – it will bring you more income and opportunities.

Check for leaks.

From gutters to roofs, from kitchen sinks to garden hoses: when water leaks, money goes out too. Water can also be a source of emotional problems – whether it’s an empty swimming pool (no water = no money) or a case of black mold (spending on what you don’t want).

When water is either completely absent or too plentiful, emotions can be more volatile. Ensure water issues are carefully addressed due to their emotional/financial implications.

 

Sparkling  windows represent clarity.

Can’t concentrate or make a decision? Maybe it’s because the windows need cleaning. Windows represent the eyes and the way we take in information. Dirty windows affect our ability to see our financial situation clearly.

Knock down doors and walls.

When doors are scratched by dogs, walls are smudged with handprints, there is a sense of missed opportunity and life in general is in decline, and a sense of hopelessness sets in. Repaint walls and repair doors. Chi enters the house through doors—especially the front door.

Make sure the path to the front door is open and attractive and that all doors function properly and smoothly. A sticky front door prevents opportunities and money, and door problems lead to energy problems, especially when it comes to money.

Relax to increase your financial chi.

Never allow insects to accumulate in the lamps and light bulbs not to remain burned out. Dirty lamps or fixtures, weak lightbulbs, and burned out lightbulbs make you unable to see life clearly or lack initiative in your financial life. Never underestimate the power of lighting to raise your financial chi – or lower it when it’s burned out.

Let go of the landscape.

This is a sure way to create severe financial difficulties. If there are dead or overgrown plants and weeds in the grass in a landscape, major financial hurdles arise.

This is especially true if you are leaving stumps of felled trees behind. Not only do these take a toll on your finances, they can also affect your health. No matter how one tries to disguise them, they still symbolically register a felled tree.

The millionaire’s secret is to always pay attention to the terrain and the landscape.

Even if your garden is small, give it impact and invest money in it because landscaping pays off financially and for your health and vitality.

Hold on to everything.

A great way to have less is to hold on to everything. Millionaire’s closets are neat and tidy and usually not stuffed to the brim. Making room for more is the best way to achieve more.

Don’t be afraid to get rid of as much as you can to make more room in your life for what you want.

Money is energy, and when your house has too much stuff, there is little room for prosperity.

Scrub it thoroughly and refresh it.

It is said that cleanliness equals godliness, and it is true. Deep pressure washing the outside of your home and deep cleaning the inside, especially the kitchen, will result in better energy, and better energy means more money. The kitchen and hearth in particular represent wealth, so make sure they shine!

Find ways to update and refresh your space. A fresh coat of paint and a thorough cleaning work wonders.

Feng Shui Arrangement kitchen

Feng Shui Arrangement and Layout for the kitchen and stove

The kitchen should be adequately lit.

It should be airy and spacious.

Do not place the stove next to or directly across from the sink or  refrigerator. 

This is due to the incompatibility of the elements water and fire.

The stove must be at least one meter away from the sink.

The opening of the stove should face one of the best directions of the family man/woman. This provides power to the stove and the
food  prepared in it is an auspicious experience for the family.

Don’t try to liven up the kitchen with Feng Shui figures or mirrors.

Kitchens should be closer to the back door than the front door.

The kitchen should never be in the middle of the house.

 

Good Feng Shui kitchens should consider the orientation of the stove and oven. With a favourable orientation, the stove can bring enormous happiness to a family.

The kitchen stove should not be in the north-west sector. This is referred to as “Fire at Heaven’s Gate” and brings misfortune to the
breadwinner and causes the head of the household to lose their job and money.

The stove should not face the main door or a bedroom door.

The stove should not be located directly under an exposed ceiling beam.

Ovens should not be placed directly under a toilet on the floor above.

The stove should not be placed directly in front of a toilet door.

 

Two Important Elements feature the kitchen

Fire Element: Stove/Oven

Water Element: Sink & Refrigerator

 

 

Feng Shui and the lucky wealth

Tips to give your wealth luck a big boost

Wealth in  Feng Shui is not just about money. It’s about having enough money so you can live well, feel good, have good relationships, have new opportunities in your life, and more. The Chinese believe that it is wonderful to be rich and not only to have money in the bank, but also to have the freedom to live however you want. For the Chinese, wealth means much more than just hard cash. While it may be true that money can’t buy everything, it can buy quite a lot. Hence the obvious preoccupation of the Chinese with money!

Activate the southeast – the wealth sector

According to the 8 Aspirations formula, the SE sector governs wealth and money luck.

This is a Wood element sector, and you can use Element theory to give this sector a big boost.

You can do so by placing some healthy potted plants in this part of your living and dining room.

Boost the annual wealth star#8 in the south

Based on the Flying Star map, the Wealth Star #8 is in the South this year in 2023. You can bring this star to life by placing the Asset Wealth Bull or Choy San, the God of Wealth, in this part of your living room. Spend more time in this sector to infuse it with human yang activity and keep it brightly lit except during the months of July and August 2023, when this sector hosts some unlucky monthly stars.

Involve blessing of the wealth buddha

White Dzambhala is the wealth bestowing aspect of the Compassionate Buddha. The best way to invoke the wealth inviting energies of this wealth deity, to attract prosperity happiness and to protect yourself from financial worries of any kind is to display the White Dzambhala mansion in the center of your home. Build an altar for this mansion and offer 3 bowls of water and burning incense daily and chant the Mantra of Wealth Dzambhala 108 times daily.

Tap your personal wealth direction with your Kua Number

Your Sheng Chi direction is the direction that brings wealth and financial success. It creates the cause for career success and advancement, which brings improvements in income and earning power. 

Create a wealth waterfall 

Waterfalls are a great way to capture wealth luck for the home. However, different orientations of main doors are best suited to different types of waterfalls.
