Feng Shui Can Be Applied To Find Love
Unfortunately, too many "Feng Shui Professionals" still believe that the perfect approach to take in order to attract love and happy relationships can simply be done by adjusting peoples living environment by re-placing images of Lone Figures with any kind of art, paintings or pictures showing happy couples, removing TV's from bedrooms, by creating cozy seating areas. My favorite advise is the one which says to down-size from a king size to a queen size bed. By analyzing some of the advice it is very obvious, these so-called “Feng Shui professionals” all have one thing in common: This is called wishful thinking.
The Chinese art and science of Feng Shui is based on a complicated set of calculations based on the year of construction of a home, a persons supporting directions, a correct Lopan Compass reading as well as the floor plan we are dealing with. Replacing images of “lone figures” with “pictures showing happy couples” will not do the trick and magically help. As we are working with the Five Elements ( Earth, Water, Wood, Fire and Metal ) you can decide for yourself – Paintings or Pictures do not belong to either one of the Five Elements! It could be best described as a PLACEBO. Placebos have a great impact on the subconscious, though should not be confused with the subject of ancient Feng Shui.
Simply replacing images does not replace the need of a Consultation by an experienced “Feng Shui Consultant. A complete Feng Shui Calculation will offer information if a home is good for people. It is possible that if a building is not so good for people that this is one reason why love and good relationships are harder to find. This aspect plays an integral part which needs to be taken care of in order to be able to raise the chances of attract love.
By creating a cozy seating area it is for sure an attractive design approach. Expressing that single chairs send a message to prospective spouses to “Back Off” is a rather ridiculous statement. And it has never crossed my mind before that anyone who has chairs placed in an angle to each other signals being ready for a relationship. Again, this also has nothing to do with the Feng Shui of a home.
Keeping television sets out of the bedroom is for sure a great idea since late night TV for sure can kill romance as well as magnetic interferences can stop you from enjoying a deep sleep.
Downsizing from a King to a Queen bed also has nothing to do with Feng Shui. Some “Feng Shui Auditors” give the advice that sleeping on an over-sized mattress does not promote intimacy, and instead by investing in a smaller, comfortable queen-sized bed it would easily help people to attract love and a good relationship. And as this explanation on Feng Shui remedies does not already offer enough irrational and false advice it is topped off by saying that if you simply can not make the change from king mattress to queen mattress people should also sleep on 'patterned bed sheets' in order to add some spice to their sex life. It is just out-right flabbergasting what kind of advice can be found on the internet and in most books. If sheets would have anything to do with the outcome of good sleep and good relationships in a bedroom the only thing we can suggest are the colors as they are related to the Five Elements (Water, Wood, Fire, Earth and Metal) to be used in your bedroom after doing a thorough “Feng Shui Audit" of your home.
