Feng Shui Helpful People and Travel Take a deep breath. A full inhale of playful summertime! We’re enjoying clear, blue skies in northern California, and warmer temperatures day-by-day. With summer officially here, let’s explore the Feng Shui Helpful People and Travel life area. Standing at the entry door facing in finds Helpful People and Travel to the right and front of your dwelling or space. What to do first? Absolutely: clear clutter and clean. That said, we move on - I choose nag-less-ness. Who are helpful people and what do they have to do with travel? Helpful People and Travel in the same life area? Let’s consider ‘outer’ helpful people and travel first. Outer helpful people are those that lift us up in some way in our daily goings-on; from a gesture as simple as a friendly smile to those committed through love to walking along, hand-in-hand, on our journey. These helpful people foster our well-being and success. We link with these people in matters of health, family, relationship, finance, and more. In knowing loving acts and thoughts are the flavor of this life, we flourish. When life thrives and our world feels safe we look to expand and we look to travel. Take a trip, go and see, smell, eat, and feel the contrast. Communicate with people whose customs are extraordinary – practice being open. It is from diverse cultures we learn to make our lives bigger, better, and brighter. Now look at ‘inner’ helpful people and travel. Here we live real adventure, true expansion. Helpful people of the ‘inner’ realm hold our Truth in their hearts. They inspire us with their deeds, words, uplifting thoughts, and insight. We are gifted by these spiritual beings with a taste for inner discovery. Travel tickets not required – just a comfortable place to sit; some deep, cleansing breaths; and eyes gently closed – Voilà! We arrive! Our desire to travel leads us within to seek out our Light. Exploring the thoughts of our Higher Selves also makes our lives bigger, better, and brighter. How do we activate this area using Feng Shui? Use a silver box (real, painted or covered with aluminum foil) and in it place pieces of paper with the names of people helpful to you – whether you actually know them or not (an author or poet you’ve read might be one). Set an intention of gratitude for the blessings these Beings bring to you. If you have a photo or personal item that recalls someone you are grateful for, place it there. From time to time review the names and update. Remember, Feng Shui requires tending to; you’re never ‘done’. If you have a desire to travel this summer, place a map of the city or country you would like to visit in this life area; hang a picture of that place on your wall. Write an affirmation with gratitude (on gray paper or with silver ink) for each day growing into a more helpful person. To further activate the Chi, place five gray or silver candles there setting an intention to light the path of every traveler, every journey. Be it climbing Yosemite’s Half Dome, waltzing in Vienna, sipping vodka in St. Petersburg, sunbathing in Rio, or meditating to bask in the Light of All-There-Is… regardless of your chosen journey, set your intention to be an enthusiastic helpful person to other travelers and that blessing will return multiplied. Bon Voyage! Bagua Life Areas In gratitude and with an intention to serve. |
