Feng Shui began over 3000 years ago and means “Wind and Water”. Feng Shui examines how energy or “chi” flows through a particular space and without this natural flow we begin to face obstacles in our lives. It is a way of life that helps us live in harmony with the environment. Today it has become a method for living respectfully in the natural world. If you are in the mood for a home makeover, but you don’t have the money to spend on big items like furniture or kitchen cabinets, you might want to consider improving the atmosphere inside your home using feng shui. Basically, the five elements of nature – wood, fire, water, earth, and metal – will come into play as you make changes, including items in your home such as crystals that refract light, water elements like fountains, plants in good health, and mobiles that dance in the air, can help the energy move through your home in positive ways. By applying the principles of Feng Shui in your home or office you can reduce negativity and as a result bring more balance and harmony into your life. This will translate into better health, more energy, and more success in your endeavors. The best way to decide whether or not a feng shui home makeover works for you is to try it. Pick one room in your home, and begin applying feng shui elements. You don’t have to do a complete overhaul at one time. Make a few small changes, and if you find yourself feeling better in the space after the makeover, you might want to consider making some feng shui upgrades in other areas of your home. The most famous feng shui wealth fish is the arowana or dragon fish.
