New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| In the ancient art of feng shui, practitioners use a map or house system known as a Bagua to determine localities of influence around the living space. Using an astrological mandala as your Bagua, you can easily divide your dwelling into twelve specific areas that you can energize with the use of crystals, water, or personal objects. Visualize a horoscope chart and place it atop your living space, the front door or position of honor would be Capricorn. You would
then follow the natural procession of the zodiac moving counterclockwise. Aquarius is next and this area immediately to the left of the front door would be the location of innovation. You might want to put your computer here. The Pisces area would be a great place for a meditation room or a place to practice yoga. Aries is next. This area would be very energized and so you might place an object here that you want to activate or bring to life. Place a green gemstone in the next section, Taurus, to encourage the flow of money. Next up is Gemini. Energize this area when you need to study or it could be a place where you socialize. The back of the house is where the hearth is and this is the domain of Cancer. This is the best place for your kitchen. The Leo area might be a game room; for Virgo, a workspace; Libra for coupling, along with Scorpio for sex. Sagittarius might reflect symbols of faith. You could set up an altar here to the right of the front door. This is a fun and easy way to play with feng shui. |
