Feng Shui and Your Family Life In feng shui, our home is not only our safe harbor, but it is also the space where we regenerate ourselves to restore the energy we may have spent in the hustle and bustle of the outside world. Home is a place for us to get in contact with what is important to us, to remember our commitments and to embrace that which nourishes us.
Perhaps one of the most important areas of anyone's life is that of family. Family can mean different things to different people. At one level, family can refer to our family of origin. That is the family that we grew up in- the family that raised us. Perhaps that was in one location, kindergarten through high school. Perhaps it was in a family that moved numerous times while growing up. Sometimes a family stays consistent in its numbers and members. In a situation such as this, the concept of family of origin may resonate with consistency and status quo. Other times, events, such as divorce, death, remarriage, and blended families may result in the concept of family of origin being about change and adjustment. Memories may be associated with security and warmth, or they may resonate with pain and alienation.
Regardless of the kind of family of origin one experienced growing up, Those Feng Shui Guys can bring about the changes in a home that generates a positive and safe environment that can aid in both healing feelings from the past as well as assist in creating and sustaining the family that one has surrounded oneself in life today.
For many of us, pets are important members of our family as well. Animals can serve important roles in the utilization of feng shui in our life. Dogs provide wonderful yang fire energy, whereas cats provide a more subtle form of yin fire. It is the tropical fish in an aquarium that result in the aquarium being the perfect representation of all five elements in balance. If having pets is an important part of who you are, their moving about your home is a wonderful way to keep the good chi flowing.
The element associated with family is wood, and its attributes of growth and life are vital to the ongoing health of the family. Representations of the wood elements- live plants, woven grass, paper, bamboo curtains, even landscape art- all support and stimulate the healthy energy of family.
In a feng shui consultation, Those Feng Shui Guys take care to thoroughly examine all aspects of the residence to ensure that there is nothing that will cut into the positive energy of family growth, as well as making the recommendations and enhancements to stimulate and generate vitalization in this area.
Whether the family in your life is the family you were born into, or whether you have surrounded yourself with your family of choice, Those Feng Shui Guys can assist you in creating a home environment that attracts and sustains good family energy in your life, no matter what form that family takes.
