Feng Shui Protectors that Back You Up

World Against You?

There are times when it feels like you are thwarted at every turn, that unseen energy is preventing you from accomplishing what you want, or, when it's really bad, that the world is against you.

At times like these it's helpful to have protectors to call upon. As a practice, feng shui should always be practiced with protection first and foremost and ahead of activation.

The simple truth is that there are seen and unseen energies - and both can carry negative intents.

That's why we need protectors.

Like the friend who comes to your aid from the grade school bully, feng shui can be called on for help.

Best of all, feng shui offers a variety of protectors to choose from that range from protecting you from negative people to bodily harm or even business politicking, malicious gossip and backstabbing.

Check out these protectors and see if there isn't one that might be helpful for you.

Kwan Kung, patron saint of police and wealth.

One of the most beloved Chinese deities is the God of War, Kwan Kung (shown above right). He is always shown carrying a spear and is a revered protector of police, politicians and business men. Everyone needs protectors, especially women, and for that reason, I place my Kwan Kung at my Southwest entrance to provide excellent protection for me, my home, and my family.

The more fierce Kwan Kung looks, the greater his protection. He must always be displayed with his sword. To protect the man of the house, place Kwan Kung in the northwest corner for even greater heavenly assistance and protection. He is also a powerful protector as an amulet.

Coins, coin swords and tied coins offer protection.

Chinese prosperity coins with a square hole are another way of creating protective influences. Placing three tied coins above the door to your office or shop helps to ensure wealth coming to you. Carrying coins in your pocket will protect you against negative influences -- especially if you're a feng shui consultant and spend a lot of time in other people's homes. Coin swords are excellent protectors against malicious gossip at work. Put the coin sword behind you to stop detractors.

Fire sword stops gossip.

One of the most malicious forms of personal attacks comes in the form of gossip and hearsay. Arguments and harsh words are the foundation of lawsuits, legal tangles, bad reputations and social isolation. Although this can happen any time, it's especially true wherever the annual 3 Star flies. In 2011 the 3 Star is in the north - the sector of career and business opportunities -- making for backstabbing, politicking, and gossip. Worse still, is the potential for libel and slander. Displaying a fire sword will stop negative talk and harmful, malicious gossip.

Fu Dogs protect against killing chi.

These wonderful pairs of Chinese symbols are always shown as a pair, with one male and one female. The fu dogs should be placed correctly, though, with the male always on the right and the female on the left, as you look at them. They provide protection from intangible forces and people with evil intentions. They are mythical animals, with the male holding a ball in his paw and the female with her paw on a cub. Place them high on a table at the entrance to your home or office for protection against negative types.

Personal security amulets shield you from negativity.

Carrying talismans and amulets on your person is a potent way to protect yourself from a variety of problems, ranging from theft to gossip to accidents and garden-variety bad luck. Amulets often carry special calligraphy or characters that give protection. I carry a variety of amulets myself.

Fans avert bad luck.

Fans have been in use in China for thousands of years. Sandalwood fans are the most popular. Many fans have auspicious symbols and poetry painted on them. Carrying a fan is believed to keep away negative intentions. Many paintings depict court dignitaries holding fans as a way to create a shield of protection around them. Display in a home or office for protection.

6 Tips for Feng Shui Bed Placement

Image
According to Benjamin Franklin, early to bed and early to rise was supposed to make us healthy, wealthy and wise. And Ben Franklin was right. He understood the importance of proper rest and being industrious and productive during our daylight hours. There's no arguing that a good night's sleep makes you feel like you can take on the world. Having enough sleep will make you less prone to disease, more effective in your job, a more pleasant person to be around and in feng shui, more likely to have romance  and wealth. Besides the front door, the second most critical area in feng shui is the bedroom. For the foundation of good health, the bedroom that's arranged well and optimally for sleep is also the bedroom that is also arranged best for romance and has relationship enhancing qualities. Perhaps equally important, a bedroom that's arranged well preserves wealth. A bedroom that isn't often sees the occupants' fortunes drained away, and their health an...

A Feng Shui Color Warning

Image
The peach is a highly symbolic fruit in Chinese society and the Taoist religion. The plant is imbued with immortality and the wood is thought to keep away evil spirits and entities. The peach flower is also believed to be able to entrance men. Its petals were thought to possess the ability to cast a romantic spell on them and as such is seen as a romantic symbol by the Chinese. But peaches are also symbols of long life. The lore of the peach is that a Goddess invited eight people to her garden where a peach tree had borne fruit after 3,000 years. After eating the peaches, each of the Gods became immortal. Thus, peaches became synonymous with long life and longevity in Chinese culture. The peach is also a common symbol of spring time and represents marriage. Peaches in the bedroom are thought to inspire marriage proposals and be a wonderful feng shui enhancer for singles. But there is a danger with peach.... Peach is the color of infidelity. The use of peach colors is not wi...
