Feng Shui – A Few Bad Stars

Posted on by blogger

In Chinese Metaphysics, there are many types of systems and formulas. One of them is known as Flying Stars systems of Feng Shui. In this system, there are nine types of stars which are given numeral of 1 – 9. These stars are actually bodies of energy (also known as Qi) that moves within a property. In Feng Shui, a property is divided into nine equal sectors based on compass direction of North, South, East, West, Northeast, Southeast, Northwest and Southwest. The sector without any compass direction is the center. The distribution of Qi over these sectors demarcates the good and bad sectors therein and formed an energy pattern within a property. The energy pattern in a property will change from month to month and year to year as the stars fly from one sector to the other.

The good stars are deemed timely and will bring prosperity to residents of a property whereas the bad ones are considered untimely and become portents of misfortune. For this period, the few bad stars are 2, 3, 5 and 7.

Star 2 is considered inauspicious as it is the illness star of the period. It brings sickness, ill health and other ailments to the residents when it flies into a given sector of a property. For example, star 2 occupies the Northwest sector in the year 2008. A house with the main entrance in the Northwest sector or a room in the Northwest sector will be afflicted with the negative energy of this star and the residents will feel sick and unwell.

Star 3 is deemed inauspicious as it is the quarrelsome star for the period. This star portends discord, arguments and miscommunication. It brings disharmony to the residents. In year 2008, this star flies into the West sector of a property. A door or room where this star is located will subject the residents therein to arguments and relationship problems.

Star 5 is the most inauspicious as it is the misfortune star for the period. This star is also known as the Five Yellow. It is the harbinger of illness, accidents, calamity and other misfortune. In year 2008, this star flies into the South sector of a property. A door or room with this star brings losses and suffering, financially or health-wise, to the residents.

Star 7 is also inauspicious as it is the robbery star for the period. This star can cause residents to be accident prone and suffer injury. The other negative aspect of this star is the possibility of thefts and robbery occurring on the property. In year 2008, this star flies into the Southwest sector of a property.

Understanding The Five Elements Of Feng Shui

Posted on by blogger

Whenever people talk about the ancient art of feng shui, inevitably the five elements come up. What are these five elements and why are they important in feng shui? Read on for a quick rundown on the five elements and their uses in the practice of feng shui.
The Five Elements of Feng Shui Outlined
The five elements of feng shui are wood, water, earth, metal and fire. These five elements are all naturally occurring and indicate either construction or deconstruction in some way or another:
Construction: Wood can make fire; the energy of fire (e.g. – the Sun) feeds the earth; metal comes from the earth; water can be drawn from the elements of metal; water feeds wood.
Destruction: Fire destroys metal; metal (such as an axe blade or other instrument) destroys wood; trees or wood feed from the earth; dirt from the earth absorbs water; of course, water destroys fire.
Harmonizing With the Five Feng Shui Elements
The underlying principle of feng shui is that there needs to be harmony and balance; having too much of any one element in your home or in a particular room is counterproductive and can be overwhelming. Most rooms will have one dominant quality of the five elements of feng shui and need another element to bring in some balance. For example, think of an all-white bathroom. White is clean and pure and represents water.
However, when a room, even a bathroom, is completely white, it can feel cold and sterile. By introducing another one of the five elements of feng shui, such as earth, this can tone down that sterile feeling. Towels, artwork, and other items that are a warm brown can do the trick. Or, imagine a living room that is all brown, which is a strong earth tone. You can feel closed in or overwhelmed, as this is a warm color but one that easily smothers you. Another one of the five elements of feng shui, such as fire, can do the trick. Red accents such as pillows or afghans can brighten up the warm brown.
Feng shui’s balancing principles can be applied to much more than home decor however. Think of personality traits. Some people are entirely too fiery; a little fire is good, but someone who is hot tempered consistently can be hard to deal with. Balance in all things is the idea of feng shui.
Hence, you can think of toning down your personality, like the warm and giving earth, your persona can do with some warm and nurturing shades to make it more likeable. This can also make you a more objective and a pleasant human being.
There are really no right or wrong answers when it comes to applying the five elements of feng shui to any room of your home or part of your life. You simply need to remember how these elements are meant to harmonize and balance one another, and try to imitate those fine qualities as much as possible.

Succeeding Through Failure

Posted on by blogger

Are you stuck in your life, fearing that you will fail if you go for what you really want? You CAN get unstuck! “I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I’ve been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. –Michael Jordan, Former Professional Basketball Player and Entrepreneur

How did failure get such a bad name? When did it become something to avoid rather than something to learn from? If you fear failure, did this come mostly from your parents or other caregivers, or mostly from your school experience, or both? I guess I was lucky that my parents didn’t care how I did in school. I don’t ever remember the word ‘failure’ being used as I was growing up. It wasn’t a concept that I even thought about. My view was that I would keep trying to do something until I became good at it.

I remember that I wanted to get good at free throws. We had a basketball hoop in our back yard; I would spend hours practicing free throws and I finally got really good at it. I can’t remember how many I could do in a row, but it was a lot. It never occurred to me that I wouldn’t succeed at getting good at it – with enough practice. I did this with many things in my life, and I was able to get good at many things. It didn’t matter to me how long it took – what mattered was that each time I ‘failed’, I learned. I didn’t even see it as failure when I missed a shot – it was just a learning experience.

Looking back, this was such a blessing for me. When I read one of my favorite books, “Mindset” by Carol Dweck, I realized what a blessing this part of my childhood really is. People who fear failure have what she calls a ‘fixed mindset.’ This means that they are so afraid of failure that they never even make the effort to try. If you are stuck in your life, you might be stuck in a fixed mindset, being too afraid to make the effort required to succeed, because you have such a judgment on failure. You might be operating from a belief system that if you can’t do something well right away, people will judge you as stupid.

This fear may be keeping you stuck.

People who don’t worry about failure have what Dr. Dweck calls a ‘growth mindset.’ This means that they receive great joy in making effort toward what they want and don’t even think about the outcome.

This has been my experience. I don’t think much about the outcome, and I receive great joy in the effort. I’ve found, like Michael Jordan, that I’ve succeeded due to learning from my many failures, but I actually never even saw them as failures. They were just learning experiences.

If you are stuck in your life, I encourage you to let go of focusing on the outcome and instead focus on the joy of making effort. When you focus on the effort, then you can receive great joy in the process of learning something.

I remember when I was about eight years old and someone gave me a gift of a pogo stick. I decided I wanted to get really good at it, and I had so much fun practicing it over and over. I have no idea how long it took me to get good at it because time wasn’t important to me, but eventually I could ride that pogo stick forever without falling. But I had to be willing to fall over and over to reach that goal.

If you are willing to fall or ‘fail’ over and over, you will eventually get where you want to go!
