Here are our tips for better feng shui this Lunar New Year (CONTEST)

Jan 22 2019, 8:18 am

The Lunar New Year is fast approaching (February 5), and with that comes the opportunity to welcome the new year with a fresh, clean slate.

Whether it’s creating more space in your home or office so you have more time to focus on hobbies or clearing clutter in your home so you can entertain your friends and family, we’ve got some simple feng shui tips that you can apply to your home to bring you good luck and harmony in your life going forward.

One thing to remember is that it is okay to experiment when applying feng shui — it’s a guideline, not a harsh set of rules. It is not a religion, nor is it superstition; it is simply a tool to help you improve the chi of a room (or the invisible force of energy in any space) and in turn, improve the energy of people who live and work in that space.

Remove any clutter from your home.

First of all, you need to start with a blank slate. Do not apply any feng shui cures if your house has chaotic energy created by clutter and a lack of order and cleanliness. Getting rid of old and unused items creates a more peaceful environment, opening up space, making us feel lighter and less burdened.

Keep the main entrance clear.

The main entrance of your home is an important location and should be kept as clear of clutter and blockages where possible. Clutter can block the flow of chi, creating obstacles.

Honour the element of water.

In 2019, the year of the pig in the Chinese Zodiac, hanging images or paintings of water, such as the beach, lakes, or rivers, will help bring blessings to you and your guests each time you enter or leave your home. Place a running fountain or an aquarium in the front section of your home to bring you good fortune this year.

Add something new and red to your home.

Red symbolizes prosperity, so add something new and red to your home for some good luck going forward into the new year.
