Feng Shui Cures
Red envelopes, wind chimes, crystals, coins, bamboo flutes and special mirrors are among the most popular and best sold feng shui cures available. The market has been flooded by a whole range of products derived from traditional feng shui and advertised as wonder remedies. What many people remain ignorant of is the fact that feng shui cures work when they are placed in the proper section of the octagonal grid called the Ba-Gua. Thus, if you buy a crystal for energizing a room, you need to place it in the right section of the room in order to achieve the wanted result.
Therefore, one has to learn a few basic things about the use and the reading of the Ba-Gua before bringing any feng shui cures in a room or office. Moreover, if you take the time to study a little bit you'll be surprised to discover that your home could be full of objects that meet the purposes of feng shui cures and therefore can be used as such. For instance, hallways are often the parts of the house where positive chi is broken. To test if this is happening to your home, think of whether you like spending time in the hallway or you simply consider it a functional access way to the other rooms.
Feng shui cures work in the direction of making all of your home full of happy chi. A simple crystal hung somewhere from the ceiling in an area of the house that you don't perceive as friendly will disperse the chi in a most beautiful way. The corners of the houses, the straight angles that doors and furniture make are often harmful for ones health if we speak in energetic terms. Sometimes, the bad feng shui is the result of a faulty house architecture. A relevant example here is the indoor steps that descend down in front of the house door. The Chinese consider that such a steps-into-door position brings bad luck, and they hang crystals between the bottom step and the door as feng shui cures.
The demand for feng shui cures would be lower if people knew how to avoid common mistakes in the arrangement of their homes and offices. Cemeteries, noisy streets, land fills or disharmonious neighbors bring a bad energy on the house; one of the many feng shui cures for such cases consists in the use of mirrors that reflect the negative energies away from you; the mirror should be placed between you and the element you want to deflect, in this case the house windows that are the entrance gates for the noise, pollution or bad vibes.
