Dinner Table Tips
Let’s look at the Feng Shui of setting a festive, balanced, and relaxed Holiday table that ensures your family and guests will feel appreciated, respected, and loved. Use the 5 Elements to achieve this during the holiday season and all throughout the year. Include the Metal Element (shiny service ware, sparkling stemware – you know, the bling) for embracing and receiving. Add the Water Element (a glass vase with water, snowflakes, wavy lines) to ever-flowing and faithful friendship. Remember the Wood Element (flowers in the vase,...

Today celebrates Poinsettia Day, a Fire Element item in Feng Shui. Why Fire and not Wood you ask? Although all plants are intrinsically Wood, Poinsettias embody Fire through their shape (pointy, triangular leaves), and color (red, rose, burgundy). It is the most expression of Yang energy (masculine), consuming in it’s passion, and the best way to make an inspired connection. So enjoy the season with the Fire Element. Love and Light!
read moreMountains and New Moons
International Mountain Day AND the December New Moon all in one day? Whew, we have an amazing day unfolding my peeps! In Feng Shui, the mountain represents stability, someone ‘having your back’, and protection. In addition to this high honor, mountain is also an Earth Element representing grounding, stability, and sheltering. Mountain encompasses and encases us in security; something we all need this time of year. When we add the December New Moon’s energy as it grows over the coming weeks we really need shelter. This month’s moon is...
read moreCeltic Animal Love for the Hawk
The Celtic Animal Zodiac month of Hawk began on November 25th and runs through December 23rd. The Hawk is one of the most celebrated of animal signs; it is sight, insight, meaning, clarity, and seeing the bigger picture. Hawk teaches us to look inside to walk the path of seeking and then sharing wisdom. Hawks may get down easily when others don’t want to hear the wisdom they have found. Hawks are a optimistic, a symphony in balance, have a high standard of integrity that comes from an internal compass pointing them to always do the right...
read moreChristmas Card Day Feng Shui
Christmas Card Day just happens to be the day I am getting my Holiday cards in the mail. Funny how life imitates art. And it really does. Case in point, what we think about is what we bring about. A HUGE Feng Shui concept in that all things vibrate as energy. The table, us humans, plants; all things are energy. Feng Shui suggests to get what we WANT in life, we should vibrate at that level on which we wish to exist. That is to say, we should dress, think, act, live, and love like we already HAVE the life we want. We have the job, the house,...
read morePretend To Be A Time Traveler Day
Pretend To Be A Time Traveler Day is such a interesting thought. Where would you go in time and who would you want to meet? Would you go into the future or into the past? How would you change the world to make it a better place? Or would you simply observe events in order to get a different perspective? Feng Shui is constantly asking us to shift our perspective in order to gain insight. We walk along our path in life seeing things from our point of view. When we open the lens on the ‘movie’ that is our life, we may see a viewpoint we would...
read moreHanukkah and Lights
Happy Hanukkah to all my Jewish friends. This season of love and sharing is a beautiful time to honor the traditional cure of light in Feng Shui along side the traditional lighting of the menorah. Light can bring up energy during the shorter and darker days of fall. Include light in your decor to help get that extra umph needed to get ‘er done in this the Metal Element time of the year. Lights in your outdoor decor should include lining the walkway to your front door, in your potted plants/topiaries, the wreath on your front door, and the...

Happy, happy Sinterklaas. You don’t know Sinterklaas? He’s the traditional holiday figure of the Netherlands who’s jolly, wears white, and is celebrated on Saint Nicholas Eve (can you guess what tomorrow is boys and girls). He’s the guy with the list folks and he’s checking it twice. So how can we help Sinterklaas know we’re merry and bright? Use the tried and true Feng Shui cure of writing out your intentions for a easy, breezy holiday season on red ribbon with gold pen (use glitter glue for some extra umph). Use the energy of...
read moreSanta’s List Feng Shui
Santa’s List Day is celebrated today and I want to help you get to all the things on your list by adding some Metal Element energy to your life. Why? Metal is the detail-oriented, precise, completion energy, ‘get ‘er done’ location in your Feng Shui arsenal. And what better way to get some ‘umph’ into your life than to express gratitude for all your blessings. It’s that Fall gratitude coming around again (and again). So, before you make the list you’ll be checking twice, make a list of gratitude. Thank you neighbor, your...
