10 Tips to Feng Shui Your Bedroom

 
 

your-bedroom-is-your-most-personal-space

The bedroom is where you get your rest and the importance of this part of the home cannot be stressed enough. While the living room is the go-to room to activate the small tai chi of your Home Feng Shui, most of us co-habitate; i.e we are not the only ones living in the house we live in. So unless you’re the head of the household with a free hand to design and decorate as you wish, chances are you’re not in a position to simply move furniture around.

Placing cures and enhancers perhaps is more doable, but completely overhauling your layout each month when the stars change position, for instance, may not be so straight forward. Your personal bedroom however is your own space for you to do with as you please.

Learning to achieve near perfect feng shui in your bedroom is especially useful for college or boarding school students who may be living most of the year in a room away from home, where the feng shui of that room may affect them more than the feng shui of their “family home”, where they spend only the holiday part of their year.

Here then are 10 useful things to remember when planning the feng shui for your bedroom.

1. POSITION OF BED IS MOST IMPORTANT

The first thing to remember is that in your bedroom, the positioning of your bed is THE most important. If there is one thing you can improve, it would be this – to make sure you sleep with your head pointed to one of your four good directions. Check your auspicious directions with our Kua Calculator and have your head point to a direction that’s good for you.

If you’re working, best to tap your Sheng Chi direction. If you’re a student, tap your Fu Wei direction. If you’re a full-time homemaker, your Nien Yen is best for you. Those with health issues should have their head point to their Tien Yi direction.

If you’re a student and having to pick smallish rooms where you have limited freedom to move the furniture within about, the first thing to do when picking your dorm room is to try to go for one where the bed position satisfies the good direction rule according to your personalized Kua.

2. COLOUR SCHEMES MATTER

Your bedroom colour scheme is the other important factor to take into consideration. The safest colour for the bedroom is white, or some other neutral colour like cream or beige which is soothing on your eyes. Remember that the bedroom is firstly your place where you recharge, so avoid large blocks of bright primary colours. If you want edgy, use your soft bedding like pillows, cushions or beanbags to give yourself a splash of colour. Don’t do it with the colours of your walls or other big surfaces such as wall-to-wall carpets or curtains.

3. HAVE A SOLID WALL BEHIND YOUR HEADBOARD

Don’t let your bed float in the middle of the room just to tap into a good direction positioning. Beds should also always have proper headboards, and these should be aligned with a solid wall. If you want to position your bed where there are windows instead of a solid wall behind the headboard of the bed, best if you can cover up the window with heavy enough drapes while you are sleeping, so you cannot “see” the window. Otherwise you will lack stability and support in your life.

4. WATER FEATURES IN BEDROOM CAN CAUSE “LOSS” ENERGIES

Avoid water features of any kind in the bedroom. This includes art featuring water like scenes of ponds, pools, the sea or waterfalls. No matter how restful such paintings may look to you, water of any kind in the bedroom can lead to money loss energies. And definitely avoid tabletop fountains, waterfalls and the like in the bedroom.

5. AVOID “DEATH POSITION”

Never ever have the foot of your bed directly facing the door. Better if your bed is placed diagonal to the door into your bedroom. Do not have your feet aligned with the door into your bedroom as this is the “Death position” and is extremely dangerous from a Feng Shui viewpoint.

 

6. STAY AWARE OF MONTHLY INFLUENCES

Check which sector your bedroom is located in, in relation to the whole house. Then stay aware firstly of the yearly flying star that occupies that sector, and also by monthly stars that fly in each month. When the month flying stars change position, the new stars of the month that have the greatest impact on you after your own animal sign sector will be the sector in which you reside. Whenever your bedroom gets afflicted by the negative stars of #5, #7 or #2, it is a warning to be careful. Such months, minimize the risks you take, and if possible, install the relevant feng shui cures to counter any ill effects of such stars.

your-bedroom-is-your-most-personal-space7. ELIMINATE POISON ARROWS

Poison arrows are the other thing you always need to watch out for, everywhere in the home but especially in your bedroom, as this is where you are most vulnerable, since this is your place of sleep. Make sure there are no poison arrows aimed where you are positioned when you’re in bed.

This includes overhead beams, protruding corners or edges from structural beams, sharp corners of cabinets etc. If there are such poison arrows pointed at your bed, look how you can camouflage them or better still, move your bed out of the line of fire.

8. NO MIRRORS IN BEDROOM

Avoid exposed mirrors in your bedroom. Keep these within cabinets where you can hide the mirror when you sleep by shutting the door. Exposed mirrors can cause sleeplessness and will definitely hamper a restful night’s sleep.

9. KEEP TVs IN THE TV ROOM

Keep TVs and computers out of your bedroom. If you’re a student and your bedroom doubles up as your study, try to keep your sleep and study areas distinct if possible. If not, then in such cases, a laptop you can close during sleep hours is preferable to a desktop monitor which you cannot cover up during sleep time.

your-bedroom-is-your-most-personal-space10. REMEMBER TO DECLUTTER REGULARLY

Lastly, and this point is important, remember to declutter from time to time! Really, clutter builds up so quickly and if you don’t make it a habit to schedule in periodic spring cleans, before long, such a lot of junk will have accumulated and this is definitely not good feng shui. If you find yourself scatter-brained, forgetful, stressed out or disorganized, a good way to snap out of that mindset is to clear and clean out your bedroom.

Clear out your closet of tee shirts that have gone grubby with too many washes, give away clothes that no longer fit you, clear out your desk of old receipts, clothes labels and outdated correspondence, dispose of old makeup and creams that are probably expired.

The mere act of spring cleaning is therapeutic and symbolically representative of making new space in your life for new things and new opportunities to enter.

Small Changes Make a Big Difference to Your Feng Shui When You Know What to Do

 
 

small-changes-big-difference-feng-shui-0

Sometimes, all you need to do to turn your luck around is to make very minor adjustments to your feng shui. In this month’s case study, we share with you a great story about our student from Singapore who completely turned his business around just by making simple configuration changes to his office layout in order to benefit from his best directions.

James* owns a recruitment firm in Singapore, which he started four years ago. Things had gone so well that James needed to expand his firm and take on four extra consultants to service his growing client base. The problem was that he had outgrown the existing office premise and it was simply too small to house his newly-hired consultants. Coincidently, a larger suite in the same office building became available; so James rented the space and moved everyone into the building.

This was when things started to go awry for his firm. As soon as they moved into the building, his most senior consultant – a man named Mark – decided to leave his firm for a competitor. In leaving the firm, he also took along with him one of James’ biggest clients! Having lost his biggest account, some of his staff was left with no work and they began competing with each other for client work. At various moments, things got very heated between two of his staff, and some of them threatened to leave and join the same firm that had poached Mark away from his firm.

Within three months, James had to face the prospect of closing down his previously thriving business! He was saddled with rental for larger office space, a very unhappy set of staff, and not enough work to keep his business afloat. His cash flow dwindled very quickly, and James was now very worried he might have to remortgage his apartment to pay for his overheads!

 

Meanwhile, James had already signed up to attend Lillian’s MPC course a year ago – based on a recommendation from one of his friends. With things being so stressful, he decided that he needed a break, and there was nothing to lose by attending the Course, since it had already been paid for.

At Lillian’s course, James discovered why his luck had changed so dramatically after moving into his new office space. Here are two of the main problems he had with his new office plan:

small-changes-big-difference-feng-shui-0 Click to enlarge

1. His Main Entrance Was Facing His Total Loss Direction

At the course, James learnt how to calculate his Kua number and discovered that he was a West Group person with Kua number 2. The problem was that his main entrance into his office suite was facing NORTH – his Chueh Ming direction! The Chueh Ming is also known as the direction of total loss and it is considered the very worst direction. According to classical texts, the Chueh Ming brings very serious misfortune and can even be fatal when it coincides with a year when a person is hit by bad flying stars! On this particular year, the Five Yellow had also entered his zodiac palace. And by using this Chueh Ming as the entrance to his business, James lost his biggest client, which was causing him serious financial stress.

2. His Office Desk was facing his 6 KILLINGS Direction

To make things worse, James’ office desk was orientated to face SOUTH, which was his Six Killings direction. Also known as the Lui Shar, facing this direction caused James to suffer difficulties arising from problems managing his staff. His most senior consultant not only left him, but was making moves to poach his other senior staff!

James waited till the last day of the Course to consult me about his case. He was feeling so depressed as he simply could not see how he could tap his good directions. “There is simply no way I can change my entrance and I wish I had known about my Kua Number before taking this office space!” he said despondently. But there is a way, I assured him; all that was required was for him to sacrifice a little bit of office space to make it work!

Here is the solution to his problem and the changes we recommended:

small-changes-big-difference-feng-shui-0 Click to enlarge
New Main Entrance to face NE

Only a minor adjustment was made to his layout so that James could tap the Northeast direction, which was his Sheng Chi Direction. The Sheng Chi is the best direction for success and business growth. We advised him to hang a painting of a waterfall feature directly facing his entrance to bring good business luck for him.

 
Install a BIG Signboard with Bright Lights

The other thing we advised him to do was to hang a large signboard of his company name outside his office and shine bright lights onto it. This would make his business more prominent and restore the confidence of his clients.

Re-orientate Office Desk

Finally, we advised him to re-orientate his desk to face his Sheng Chi direction. To do this correctly, he also needed to build a solid wall behind him. We advised him to hang a painting of a large mountain (with no water) behind him as this would help him secure the support of his staff, his bankers and his clients.

James did exactly as recommended, and his business recovered tremendously! A year later, he returned to take the MCC class with Lillian, and he shared this wonderful story with the class!

James explained that after changing his entrance and re-orientating his desk position, things really improved and business took a big turn upwards! James was able to secure two new large accounts, which actually saved his company. His big client eventually came back to him because Mark was not able to deliver the same level of quality service in his rival’s firm! That year became his best business year as James’ firm was also given industry recognition for being the “Most Innovative Recruitment Firm” of the year!

We are so thrilled that it worked out so well for James. In our experience, we have found time and again, that students and clients who listen carefully to our advice and follow our recommendations exactly as prescribed really benefit from a turn-around of whatever predicament they are experiencing.

“I can’t believe that all I did was change my entrance door; it made such a big difference!” said James when he came back to see us. “Thank you for this amazing advice… I owe you guys big time!”

Feng Shui 2020:
Your Luck in the Coming Year of the Metal Rat

 
 

fengshui2020.jpgThe year of the Metal Rat begins on 25th January 2020. This is followed by the Lap Chun on February 4th which means that the coming year has ample growth energy to help the economies of the world. This is going to be an exciting year with both good and bad news, enabling those who are well-informed to come out of the year much better off.

The feng shui 2020 charts indicate a challenging year filled with many potential pitfalls and traps that can lead to loss. This is mainly due to the powerful Robbery Star which enters every home in 2020 – this affliction needs strong feng shui remedies. Fortunately, there are also positive stars that indicate big success for those empowered to succeed.

Quarrelsome energies also afflict the world; so the more patient and calmer you are, the higher your chances of doing well.

According to the feng shui chart of the year, the cardinal directions of the South, East and North are not so lucky save for the West corner. This means that people that belong to the East group need to be more careful in the coming year, while West group people have more luck on their side.

 

LUCK SUMMARY FOR THE 12 SIGNS

The RAT in 2020 is the ruling animal sign of the year, thus enjoys the support of the Tai Sui. The Rat has good Life Force but weak Spirit Essence, which indicates it needs to work on boosting self-confidence. While the Rat may be short on vigour and vitality, which should be corrected with the correct cures, there is excellent wealth luck. The good news is the Rat is a highly resilient sign, and challenges are what spurs the Rat on to become the most successful version of itself.

The OX in 2020 is blessed with the auspicious Victory Star with winning luck strongly on its side. The Ox can easily beat the competition and come out triumphant in any endeavour it chooses to pursue. It should endeavour to always keep good luck on its side by getting its timing right, and by using suitable placements and enhancers to activate the good fortune that comes its way in 2020. Ths Ox also enjoys Small Auspicious, which can be converted into BIG success! For the Ox, this is a year full of great potential!

The TIGER in 2020 enjoys excellent prospects with the confidence, impetus and drive to go after whatever it is it wants. It should harness good fortune luck by activating the Victory Star, and by energizing personal success energies with the power of the Windhorse. The Tiger person can rise up very high in whatever field it focuses its attentions on. Blessed with leadership luck and a great deal of influence, the Tiger should make use of its natural charisma to get ahead. Wealth prospects are also promising.

The RABBIT in 2020 is feeling strong with the inner drive to succeed. But it needs to watch out for the Five Yellow affliction, which threatens to manifest obstacles that dent its confidence and slows it down. For the Rabbit, the most important thing this year is to suppress the wu wang affliction, and then pursue its ambitions with single-minded determination. So much potential for the Rabbit-born in 2020. But it must make use of its high success indicators by keeping active, ambitious and motivated.

The DRAGON in 2020 has so many exceptional indications! This is a year to go after whatever it wants because luck is on its side in a BIG way! The Dragon has Big Auspicious luck coming from the direction of its soulmate the Snake. All its Element Luck indicators are promising. The Dragon also enjoys heaven luck from the feng shui winds. As long the Dragon can match its lofty ambitions with short term achievable goals, this is a year when it can leapfrog into the big leagues! The Dragon’s instincts are good so this is a year it can follow its heart. Those with good discipline can achieve brilliant results this year!

The SNAKE in 2020 has outstanding Flying Star and 24 Mountains indications! This sign is blessed with the luck of helpful people and mentors guiding you. Big Auspicious comes from the direction of the Dragon, so working with anyone of this sign is good for the Snake. But it needs to watch the Robbery Star, which can cause money loss. The Snake’s element luck also needs boosting. The year ahead looks promising as long as steps are taken to activate its strengths and suppress its afflictions.

The HORSE in 2020 has some serious afflictions, so its first priority should be to cure these. The Illness Star brings a warning to avoid dangerous physical pursuits, while the Reducing Energy Star encourages the Horse to put more attention to leading a healthy lifestyle. The Horse also has the Tai Sui Conflict to contend with. Apart from these afflictions, the Horse enjoys good success luck. It can pursue dreams to good levels but needs to be careful not to push too hard.

 

The SHEEP in 2020 can look forward to an year when you can attain increasingly higher goals as the year unfolds! You have superior element luck which brings determination of spirit. Efforts meet with results quickly, which spurs on the Sheep’s inner drive. There is much love and romance for Sheep people looking for this kind of happiness. The Scholastic Star brings accolades to the young Sheep, and makes it easy to learn new skills. A satisfying year for those who know how to harness their good fortune luck!

The MONKEY in 2020 has not one or two, but THREE AUSPICIOUS STARS! It has the added benefit of the ruling sign of the year the Rat as its astrological ally! Feng shui winds bring relationship luck, so help comes from all directions. Friendships flourish and doors are held wide open. The #4 star attracts mentor luck, so the Monkey should listen to advice given by elders. The student Monkey is also blessed this year and can achieve great success! The Monkey just needs to watch its element luck indicators; it must not allow envious rivals to dent its self-assuredness.

The ROOSTER in 2020 has immense good fortune coming its way! It has TWO BIG AUSPICIOUS, which get magnified by the #9 Future Prosperity Star. This is a year to build on a growing fortune that lasts well into the future! The Rooster should think long-term when making plans. Success will be the kind that brings results in the long term, which can be de-motivating if short-term results seem slow in manifesting; but remember that when success comes, it comes in a BIG way. The Rooster needs to fire up its inner energy, because there is big wealth to tap.

The DOG in 2020 has prosperity luck on its side and a whole host of fabulous indications from the 24 Mountains Constellations. It has Small and Big Auspicious coming from the direction of the Rooster, so working with Rooster people bodes well for the Dog. The Dog should not dismiss new opportunities to make money – wealth luck is promising but only if actively pursued. Those who go after what they want can achieve success.

The BOAR in 2020 enjoys excellent money luck! The #8 star brings great potential for amassing wealth, while element luck indicators gives it the drive to go after whatever it is it wants. But to jumpstart this good fortune, the Boar needs to set clear goals. For the Boar, the most important thing this year is to surround itself with people who boost its confidence. It should avoid peer pressure that leads to bad decisions. Success this year depends on determination levels, but also on the company it keeps.

Lucky Colours for the Year of the Rat 2020

 
 

What Lucky Colours Should I Wear in 2020?

NEW YEAR COLOURS & SYMBOLS

lucky colors 2020

To greet in the New Year, there are several colours and symbols that simply MUST be brought into the home, as these are the decorative enhancers that will ensure everything auspicious comes to you.

Red lanterns are one most easily identifiable as auspicious symbols of the New Year. Here, their colour red resonates with everyone as it is universally acknowledged as the most auspicious colour of the New Year. Thus red is always the principle colour used in restaurants and temples and on clothes worn by everyone to reflect the good energy it represents. For good luck, everyone wears red, or at least try to, during the first day of the Lunar New Year festivities.

chrysanthemum flowerYellow Chrysanthemums bring increasing luck during the New Year. This is the time of year when the colour yellow – the kind almost bordering on gold – brings auspicious increasing prosperity luck. The flower itself is also auspicious as it is usually filled with an abundance of petals. If there is an altar in your home, placing these yellow blooms as offerings to your Gods and Buddhas through the fifteen days of the Lunar New Year is very auspicious.

Kam Kuat Orange Plants bring the symbol of gold into the home and in 2020, these bushy plants studded with bright juicy Kam Kuats ensure that wealth luck gets attracted into the home. Place a pair of these plants flanking your door inside or outside your home. The orange colour here can be closer to red or yellow, but both colours are considered to be auspicious, especially during the first 15 days of the New Year.

gold on red calligraphyGold on Red Calligraphy done on plaques or on rice paper art in auspicious rhyming couplets with master brush strokes are also very welcome during the New Year. The gold ink is considered very special as this signifies the colour of accumulated wealth. When the calligraphy has a red background, it is more auspicious. The use of auspicious words has been popular in China for centuries. They may remind readers of the strongly worded single word affirmations, which in recent years have become very popular as well.

To the Chinese, the word Double Happiness or Hei “喜喜” is considered very powerful for attracting good marriage luck, but it should always have red in the background to infuse it with the needed yang chi to activate its energy.

pink and white blossomPink and White Blossoms to indicate the coming of spring. This is one of the most important and colourful of auspicious symbols, as it has multi-layers of lucky meanings. They are known by the Chinese as the Three Friends of Winter – Plum, Pine and Bamboo; together, they symbolize steadfastness, perseverance, and resilience. They continue to live through the cold winter months and as soon as spring comes, they send out glorious blooms that signifies the growth energy of the Springtime Wood element – all extremely auspicious as they welcome a bright new year filled with blossoming chi energy.

red packetsRed Packets filled with Money This is one of the most important rituals of the Lunar New Year. This is when money is placed inside an auspiciously designed red packet to be given to all children and unmarried relatives in the family who visit your home to wish you a prosperous new year. In the old days, it was deemed very auspicious for the recipient to receive a red money packet from the elder members of the family and from the boss, but it was considered equally auspicious for the older relative or boss when they give the red packet.

The amount placed inside the packet is not as important as the sentiments behind the giving. It is advisable to place an even-numbered amount inside the red packet and even more auspicious when meaningful words are printed in gold and the packet itself is a bright vermillion red. You can use any lucky symbol to decorate your lucky money packet, as long as the packet is red in colour.

Using any other colour is considered very unlucky, even when the year deems the other colour to be auspicious. Remember that during the Lunar New Year, use red as background colour and gold as secondary colour and you will have a fortunate year!

 

LUCKY COLOURS FOR 2020

The Chinese believe that colours resonate with particular frequencies that have different strengths and affinities from year to year. In Chinese metaphysics, there are five main colours which signify the five elements, the five planets and the five directions – North, South, East, West and Center. Different homes have different colour affinities, and different personalities vibrate better with certain colours in different years. This dynamic aspect of the use of colours to ensure good fortune is a fascinating study in itself, but for the purposes of the TUNG SING, what is needed is a basic knowledge of colour affinities plus their resonance in the Year of the Metal Rat 2020.

For 2020, the colour green is very auspicious, as this symbolizes the colour that strengthens the WINDHORSE of the year, thereby bringing strong success luck. For almost all the animal signs, the colour green will be very auspicious in 2020.

Note that the colour green signifies the season of spring and it stands for steady and healthy growth chi energy. This is very important, as the year of 2020 starts before the beginning of LAP CHUN, the first day of spring. Green is the colour of Wood and because Wood is the element of resource in 2020, green is also the colour of success. If you are unwell, sit by a window overlooking fields of green. There is nothing more therapeutic than this. Green also signifies action and wearing green makes one feel energized and action-oriented.

The lucky gemstone associated with green is the FEI CUI GREEN JADE, probably the most expensive of this beautiful translucent stone so loved by the Chinese. Green Jade brings great good fortune to those who wear it close to their bodies, especially when worn as hand bangles near the pulse point at the hand.

Do note that because green is so auspicious in 2020, it is extremely beneficial to wear jade in 2020.

The colour RED

For 2020, the colour red is lucky as it brings friendship and networking luck; and is neither a colour that is in excess nor is the year short of Fire. Note that red is the colour associated with the planet MARS.

While the colour red is universally acknowledged as a very important and auspicious colour, it is important not to overuse this colour. Thus while wearing red is very lucky indeed, painting the whole house red is quite another matter. When Fire energy becomes excessive, it can turn destructive.

Red is always favoured for the New Year, for weddings and for the celebration of happiness events such as the month-old celebration of a new-born baby and birthdays for patriarchs and matriarchs. During such events, the yang chi of the colour red gets activated, attracting good fortune!

Red is also the favourite colour of temples and restaurants, as it is believed to be the most powerful colour for attracting customers and clients. Again, one should not overdo the use of red even in these public places.

The colour YELLOW

yellow emperorIn 2020, the colour yellow represents intelligence and creativity. This is the colour of Earth which brings stability and patience; and makes one grounded and realistic. Because Earth is in excess this year, too much of this colour will cause excessive worrying and self-induced stress.

Yellow has always been a noble and high-class colour associated with the mandarins at court. The Chinese have always revered this colour, associating it with Imperial Authority, yellow being the colour of the Son of Heaven. Yellow is also the Emperor’s colour. It is also the colour of the Yellow River, which brings the much-needed water to the fields of rice and grain, and it is also the colour of the great nation China itself.

The colour WHITE

gold barWhite is the colour associated with the element Metal, which in 2020 is the element that signifies Wealth and Financial success. The other colours associated with the Metal element are silvery grey and gold. Both of these metallic colours represent money, so they are always regarded as auspicious. The metal planet is Venus.

The colour BLUE or BLACK

Both colours blue as well as black signify flowing water, which brings change and swift communication. The flow of news moves as fast as the waters that flow down the great rivers of the world. Wearing black or blue in 2020 strengthens recognition and promotion luck!

Black is not the evil colour many suppose it to be. It is also not a mourning colour. Nevertheless, it is not favoured during festivities and celebration occasions. Do avoid wearing black to someone’s wedding or birthday dinner, as it is simply not a nice thing to do. This is not because black brings bad luck. It is because the colour black is associated with the dark wandering spirits of the night.

When you enter a celebration occasion in black, the fear is that the wandering spirits are able to merge with you and enter to spoil the occasion. In Chinese, we call this causing the colour black to clash with someone in the dinner whose Spirit Essence is low. This can be the host or the host’s parents.

Blue is less of a danger, although many Chinese associate this colour with losing, and failure. Light blue however does not have the same connotations as black or a darker blue. If you need to enhance the Water element therefore, and need to wear blue, it is a good idea to wear lighter shades such as sky blue or the colour of aquamarine.

TWO COLOUR COMBINATIONS

There are several dimensions to the effect which colour combinations have on one’s luck. The first has to do with the combination of planetary forces, while the second has to do with the combination of elements. In many instances, two colours tend to make a stronger statement and have a stronger good luck effect than just wearing either separately as a single colour.

The LUCKY COMBINATIONS

 
 

GREEN & BLACK is a very lucky combination, as black Water replenishes the fast-growing green Wood. Here, the Wood of our earth is being nourished, causing it to generate great good fortune and life-giving energies. This combination is always auspicious. The meaning generated here is one of good health and continuous victory.

This is an excellent combination for 2020. You can use it for your corporate logo, your posters and your calling cards, as the hidden message of this combination is excellent.

 
 

GREEN & RED is likewise a favourable combination, as the hidden meaning generated with these two colours side by side is indicative of having ample resources to fuel your wishes and improves success. Here, the green of Wood is being used in a clever way, but it is the bright brilliance of the Fire element that will bring success luck. In 2020, this is a good combination that brings mentors and helpful people.

 
 

RED & YELLOW is a stable combination that brings good activity, favourable results and harmonious effects. Anyone wishing to work as a team and to foster goodwill between team players will benefit from this combination. So if you are looking for a good colour scheme for your sports team, this can be a winning combination.

 
 

YELLOW & WHITE is an excellent colour combination. This denotes the creation of wealth, the successful transformation of resources into a sustainable business and the making of good profits. But this is not favoured for flags and corporate logos, as here, the elements indicated are Earth producing Metal. These are elements best used in a grounding capacity. Thus they are great for house or office décor colours e.g. the combination of white walls with yellow highlights or light cream yellow walls with metal of any kind.

 
 

BLACK & WHITE is a good productive-type combination. Here, the Water element of black, which signifies wealth luck, is produced by the Metal white, which also signifies the creation of sustainable prosperity. This is thus a wealth-creating combination. It is excellent for sports teams and corporate logos. Black and white also signifies the unity of yin and yang.

 
 
 

YELLOW, WHITE & BLUE brings wealth. This is an excellent combination for those doing business or commerce. You can use gold instead of yellow, and black instead of blue, to achieve the same effect. The elements at work here are Earth producing Metal producing Water. Very auspicious.

 
 
 

RED, YELLOW & WHITE creates harmony and peace. The elements here are Fire producing Earth producing Metal, so ultimately, this is combination of three colours that also brings wealth. More importantly, it brings stability and harmony.

 
 
 

BLUE, GREEN & RED brings success, fame and recognition. This is an excellent combination for those wanting to climb the career ladder, as it is a success-bringing combination of colours. Here, the elements are Water producing Wood producing Fire. You can substitute black for blue, and brown for green as well.

The UNLUCKY COMBINATIONS

 
 

GREEN & YELLOW connects Wood with Earth element, which is a single-sided combination. Here the dominant colour is green, which soaks up everything the Earth element of yellow has to offer. The green colour in this combination causes yellow to lose its lustre and brilliance, causing the light to get dimmed and resources to be reduced.

This is not a good colour combination when two separate colours green and yellow are placed next to each other. But when the colours are mingled and mixed to create a lighter less green shade of green, the effect is neutral and may even be lucky.

 
 

WHITE & GREEN is definitely not lucky. Here the elements are clashing in a destructive way, with growth energy halted. The combination thus brings disaster and even violence. Metal destroys the energy of Wood and can also decrease immunity to illness. Only in exceptional cases would such a combination be beneficial, but that too only intermittently. It is safer to avoid it. If you want to use this combination, it is advisable to increase the green and reduce the white.

 
 

RED & WHITE is likewise a combination that denotes war, as the Fire of red devours the Metal of white. This combination is not recommended unless the white is so prominent as to render the red harmless.

 
 

BLACK & RED signifies the presence of Fire and Water, two opposing elements with black destroying red. This makes this combination potentially dangerous to the power of red, and in fact, the two elements represented become aggressive when paired together. Better to avoid this combination as it only brings discord and problems even though it may initially bring good results. Ultimately, this combination does not lead to sustainable good fortune.

A relation of the red/black combination is the red/blue combination which when mixed, creates the colour purple. This is a special colour which has a special meaning to the Chinese, as purple is the ultimate colour of perfection. It is also the colour of heaven, and when combined with yellow, becomes a combination denoting the harmonious and very auspicious union of heaven and earth.

 
 

YELLOW & BLACK represent the elements of Earth with Water – a destructive combination. The insects and animal worlds are full of poisonous examples of this combination and they signify danger to humans. Stinging insects and bees, tigers and other reptiles carry this colour combination. The yellow and black combination can also be seen on many road signs as warning signs of danger. But as a protective colour scheme, this is an excellent combination, as it creates a natural shield against those who would do you harm. Hence the popularity of Tiger amulets!

10 Tips to Feng Shui Your Bedroom

 
 

your-bedroom-is-your-most-personal-space

The bedroom is where you get your rest and the importance of this part of the home cannot be stressed enough. While the living room is the go-to room to activate the small tai chi of your Home Feng Shui, most of us co-habitate; i.e we are not the only ones living in the house we live in. So unless you’re the head of the household with a free hand to design and decorate as you wish, chances are you’re not in a position to simply move furniture around.

Placing cures and enhancers perhaps is more doable, but completely overhauling your layout each month when the stars change position, for instance, may not be so straight forward. Your personal bedroom however is your own space for you to do with as you please.

Learning to achieve near perfect feng shui in your bedroom is especially useful for college or boarding school students who may be living most of the year in a room away from home, where the feng shui of that room may affect them more than the feng shui of their “family home”, where they spend only the holiday part of their year.

Here then are 10 useful things to remember when planning the feng shui for your bedroom.

1. POSITION OF BED IS MOST IMPORTANT

The first thing to remember is that in your bedroom, the positioning of your bed is THE most important. If there is one thing you can improve, it would be this – to make sure you sleep with your head pointed to one of your four good directions. Check your auspicious directions with our Kua Calculator and have your head point to a direction that’s good for you.

If you’re working, best to tap your Sheng Chi direction. If you’re a student, tap your Fu Wei direction. If you’re a full-time homemaker, your Nien Yen is best for you. Those with health issues should have their head point to their Tien Yi direction.

If you’re a student and having to pick smallish rooms where you have limited freedom to move the furniture within about, the first thing to do when picking your dorm room is to try to go for one where the bed position satisfies the good direction rule according to your personalized Kua.

2. COLOUR SCHEMES MATTER

Your bedroom colour scheme is the other important factor to take into consideration. The safest colour for the bedroom is white, or some other neutral colour like cream or beige which is soothing on your eyes. Remember that the bedroom is firstly your place where you recharge, so avoid large blocks of bright primary colours. If you want edgy, use your soft bedding like pillows, cushions or beanbags to give yourself a splash of colour. Don’t do it with the colours of your walls or other big surfaces such as wall-to-wall carpets or curtains.

your-bedroom-is-your-most-personal-space

3. HAVE A SOLID WALL BEHIND YOUR HEADBOARD

Don’t let your bed float in the middle of the room just to tap into a good direction positioning. Beds should also always have proper headboards, and these should be aligned with a solid wall. If you want to position your bed where there are windows instead of a solid wall behind the headboard of the bed, best if you can cover up the window with heavy enough drapes while you are sleeping, so you cannot “see” the window. Otherwise you will lack stability and support in your life.

4. WATER FEATURES IN BEDROOM CAN CAUSE “LOSS” ENERGIES

Avoid water features of any kind in the bedroom. This includes art featuring water like scenes of ponds, pools, the sea or waterfalls. No matter how restful such paintings may look to you, water of any kind in the bedroom can lead to money loss energies. And definitely avoid tabletop fountains, waterfalls and the like in the bedroom.

your-bedroom-is-your-most-personal-space

5. AVOID “DEATH POSITION”

Never ever have the foot of your bed directly facing the door. Better if your bed is placed diagonal to the door into your bedroom. Do not have your feet aligned with the door into your bedroom as this is the “Death position” and is extremely dangerous from a Feng Shui viewpoint.

 

6. STAY AWARE OF MONTHLY INFLUENCES

Check which sector your bedroom is located in, in relation to the whole house. Then stay aware firstly of the yearly flying star that occupies that sector, and also by monthly stars that fly in each month. When the month flying stars change position, the new stars of the month that have the greatest impact on you after your own animal sign sector will be the sector in which you reside. Whenever your bedroom gets afflicted by the negative stars of #5, #7 or #2, it is a warning to be careful. Such months, minimize the risks you take, and if possible, install the relevant feng shui cures to counter any ill effects of such stars.

your-bedroom-is-your-most-personal-space7. ELIMINATE POISON ARROWS

Poison arrows are the other thing you always need to watch out for, everywhere in the home but especially in your bedroom, as this is where you are most vulnerable, since this is your place of sleep. Make sure there are no poison arrows aimed where you are positioned when you’re in bed.

This includes overhead beams, protruding corners or edges from structural beams, sharp corners of cabinets etc. If there are such poison arrows pointed at your bed, look how you can camouflage them or better still, move your bed out of the line of fire.

8. NO MIRRORS IN BEDROOM

Avoid exposed mirrors in your bedroom. Keep these within cabinets where you can hide the mirror when you sleep by shutting the door. Exposed mirrors can cause sleeplessness and will definitely hamper a restful night’s sleep.

9. KEEP TVs IN THE TV ROOM

Keep TVs and computers out of your bedroom. If you’re a student and your bedroom doubles up as your study, try to keep your sleep and study areas distinct if possible. If not, then in such cases, a laptop you can close during sleep hours is preferable to a desktop monitor which you cannot cover up during sleep time.

your-bedroom-is-your-most-personal-space10. REMEMBER TO DECLUTTER REGULARLY

Lastly, and this point is important, remember to declutter from time to time! Really, clutter builds up so quickly and if you don’t make it a habit to schedule in periodic spring cleans, before long, such a lot of junk will have accumulated and this is definitely not good feng shui. If you find yourself scatter-brained, forgetful, stressed out or disorganized, a good way to snap out of that mindset is to clear and clean out your bedroom.

Clear out your closet of tee shirts that have gone grubby with too many washes, give away clothes that no longer fit you, clear out your desk of old receipts, clothes labels and outdated correspondence, dispose of old makeup and creams that are probably expired.

The mere act of spring cleaning is therapeutic and symbolically representative of making new space in your life for new things and new opportunities to enter.

Discover Wealth Lines on Your Palm

wealth-hands01.jpg

 

The Chinese believe that face reading should be supplemented by studying the extremities of the human body, more specifically looking for signs of wealth on your hands. Lines, marks and indentations reflect a person’s mind, body and spirit. Thus the appearance of hands, feet and head – the five extremities – offer clues to the destiny of any individual.

Lines on your hands reveal much about how successful you can be, including when success comes. Hands show timing of career changes, when you will ride high and when hard times come. The Chinese believe there is direct communication between your hands and your mind, body and spirit, so the lines and symbols on the palm offer remarkably accurate clues to your fortune.

As with face reading, feng shui and other astrological practices, the principles of hand analysis are related to the Five Elements. All hands are thus classified according to the elements of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. Knowing your hand element gives insights into your personality and attitudes.

Slender Palms
The WOOD ELEMENT HAND
If you have slender palms, you will thrive in professions that require you to work near water. These are industries that enhance your chances of success. Thus they suit you best. WATER Industries include banking and financial services, consumer goods, import/export, trading, insurance, fishing and everything related to shipping, transport, forwarding and commerce.

Square Palms
The METAL ELEMENT HAND
wealth-hands02.jpgIf you have square palms, professions that require you to be in contact with earth suit you best. EARTH related professions include architecture and engineering and anything to do with real estate and property development. Road and infrastructure construction and building-related businesses such as factories to manufacture cement, floor tiles, wall tiles and roof tiles all fall within the earth category.

Heavy Palms
The EARTH ELEMENT HAND
If you have heavy palms, working in Fire-element industries is suitable. Thus restaurants and all entertainment type work would do just fine. Acting, show business, advertising, the food industry and electronics would all fall within the category that would harmonize with this kind hand type.

Elongated Palms
The FIRE ELEMENT HAND
wealth-hands03.jpgPeople with elongated palms will do well in professions which bring them in close proximity with Wood energy. All agricultural-based ventures such as garden nurseries, plantations, furniture businesses, publishing, textiles, writing and so forth. Being near Wood will enhance the Fire energy of your hands, adding to your success potential.

Fleshy Palms
The WATER ELEMENT HAND
wealth-hands04.jpgIf you have fleshy palms, you will thrive in Metal-type professions. These include computer and electronic components, engineering and other hi-tech businesses. You can also find potential for advancement in IT, the legal profession, mining, as well as in the automobile industries. Working in a factory environment is also an excellent option.

LINES ON THE PALM
The three principle lines on your palm – the heart, head and life lines – are regarded as heaven, mankind and earth lines. When these main lines are deep, clear and have no interruptions, it is a sure sign of a smooth and successful life.

All secondary lines branching off these main lines are good when they run upwards and bad when they cross the main lines. Joining lines (also known as root lines) mean you have helpful people coming to assist you.

There are also distinct symbols of success to be found on palms. If your palms reveal tridents, fishes, temples… these are all very lucky indications. Roots and islands on the other hand are unlucky signs.

AUSPICIOUS INDICATORS OF WEALTH ON YOUR PALM

wealth-hands14.jpg

wealth-hands05.jpgTRIDENTS are symbols of power and great good luck. When a trident falls along the fate line, it indicates a promotion or unexpected windfall in that period of your life. The presence of a trident on your hand is a sure indication that you will always be in a position of some power, and that you will become a very influential person. The trident indicates three types of luck – wealth, power and influence. When it appears as shown in the illustration, the trident indicates the fulfillment of your ambitions.

 

wealth-hands06.jpgISLANDS on your career line usually mean a dismissal, or a severe illness that cuts short your career. Or you could be a victim of vicious politics. The “island” is always regarded a very inauspicious symbol. Wherever it appears on the hand it always suggests some kind of obstacle during that period of your life.

wealth-hands07.jpgThe FISH is a sign of great prosperity and wealth. When this is found along your career line, it indicates that massive wealth comes from your work or business. The fish sign can also be seen in other parts of the hand and wherever it appears, it is an indicator of expanding wealth. The fish stands for abundance and in the old days, experts in palmistry would advise keeping fish to activate the signs of abundance shown in the palm. If you keep lively gold fish, this would activate the fish signs on your palms.

wealth-hands08.jpgTRIANGLES are signs of achievement and success. On your fate line, they also signify a turning point in your career, something that changes your work direction for the better. Triangles always signify recognition of some kind, and if you are fortunate enough to have a triangle sign, you should feel very blessed.

wealth-hands09.jpgGRID LINES are signs of being stagnant or stifled. When found along the career line, they could symbolize a jealous colleague politicking against you, a middle manager stifling your creativity, or an unfulfilling job.

wealth-hands10.jpgSMALL LINES THAT CROSS signify obstacles and difficulties, especially when they cross the main lines.

wealth-hands11.jpgTHE TEMPLE is a symbol of great influence that relates to your own spiritual nature. The temple is quite a rare symbol and when it appears, it suggests a state of blissful realizations.

wealth-hands12.jpgFEATHERY LINES indicate angst and worry. It warns that something may be on its way to causing you much torment in your job.

wealth-hands13.jpgJOINING LINES also known as root lines symbolize helpful people entering your life.

TOILET IN THE SOUTHEAST

QIn my SE there is a toilet and bathroom, with a window. How is that good or bad? And how to fix?

AIt’s neither good nor bad unless it occupies the whole of the SE. And that is bad because the SE is the sector that represents wealth luck. But if your bathroom and toilet is in the whole of your SE, I’d say either move it to another sector, or close the door to it when not in use, and activate the SE corner of your living room with wealth enhancers.

There’s no need to fix it per se, as every sector represents something.

Toilets however that need to be urgently moved are those directly above the main door to the home. These are bad – and I have seen so many cases where this causes the family’s fortunes to literally turn on its head – and in such cases, I’d say renovate, move out, or use another door as the main door.

10 Ways to Tap Into Your Inner Spiritual Power

 

1. Engage your inner spiritual power and tune in mentally

Meditate daily to gain inner awareness. Close your eyes to shut out distractions, breathe normally, stay relaxed and then direct your mind to go deep inside yourself. Do this for a few moments each day until you become familiar with the exercise. It will soon help you rest your mind, increase your clarity of thinking, and open the inner depths of your own thought processes to you.

 

2. Unlock inner wisdom with pure motivation

Set yourself simple goals and establish the correct motivation for becoming spiritual. It must pure and devoid of hidden negative agenda. The key to using mental power is to be able to establish and maintain this purity, so always check your motives before you begin.

 

3. Think rich! Discard poverty programming

10-ways-to-tap-into-your-inner-spiritual

You must guard strongly against poverty programming. Stop worrying about a rainy day. People who are generous are programming themselves for a life of prosperity. Don’t let simple things such as saving money on electricity take over your life. The more relaxed you are about money, and everything that is connected with spending, the more likely you are to make your finances grow. Feng shui to attract wealth rarely works well for stingy people with closed minds. It works beautifully for people who are expansive and generous. Adjust your attitudes as well as your motivations.

4. Visualize and actualize – accessing your inner subconscious

10-ways-to-tap-into-your-inner-spiritual

Using mental visualizations to bring power to your intentions lies in using the mind to create pictures that have a canny way of becoming reality. Think of all the outcomes you are wishing for as you feng shui the rooms of your home. It is this visualization that will cause you to actualize all your wishes into reality.

 

5. Clear your inner channels of energy

Spend ten minutes each day mentally going through the rooms of your house in which you live and spend time. Meditate on your space and imagine a gust of fresh air sweeping away the cobwebs and the clutter that tends to stick in the mind after a hard day’s work. Try to create a situation in which you actually feel a gush of fresh cold air so that you can recreate its refreshing feeling in your mind.

 

6. Stimulate the mind to dream

10-ways-to-tap-into-your-inner-spiritual

Encourage your subconscious mind to dream and to retain the memories of your dreaming by placing “kusha grass” underneath your pillow. Over time, your dreams will become more and more auspicious. Pleasant dreams always lead to happy outcomes.

 

7. Create mental magic

Unlocking mental magic lies in your ability to focus your mind on a goal and to visualize yourself achieving that goal. Visualize successful scenarios for yourself and your family, and combine these mental exercises with good physical feng shui in the home.

 

8. Use White Light meditation to cocoon your home

Create a mental picture of a gentle white light embracing your home each night just before you go to sleep. By doing this, you are creating protection for everyone living in your home. If you make this visualization part of your nightly routine, you will over time also be strengthening your mind’s ability to focus.

 

9. Supplement your feng shui with positive expectations

10-ways-to-tap-into-your-inner-spiritual

Every morning, while you are still in the half-asleep mode, focus your mind on the happiness of waking up to a brand new day, alive and well. Focus on the positive outcomes you would like to achieve today. Visualize only good news coming to you, and only good people entering your life. This way, only good results will come from all your actions.

 

10. Tap the power within you

Regularly activate for good luck by developing the habit of practising mental feng shui each day. Walk through the rooms of your home and around your garden and think about what you would like to change, replace or improve. Daily exercises in awareness help to stimulate new ideas that will allow you to enhance your home’s energy. By increasing your awareness of your home, you are enhancing it with the vital essence of your own energy.

Tuning Into The Universe To Improve Your Life

 

Taoist feng shui engages the inner chi, using secret techniques that unite heaven, earth and mankind to create awareness of shifts in subtle energy. These movements affect our well being, facilitating direct communication with nature, and with the winds and waters. It enables us to read signals from the environment and from the realms of animals, from weather changes, from cloud formations, from signs sent from the cosmos – all seen within the context of time and space.

 

Birds are powerful symbols of new opportunity. Having the bird image in the home is said to attract prosperity, opportunities and abundance. A hundred birds would be a hundred times more opportunities. Birds signify protection for those who take financial and business risks. When placed in the South, birds ward off bad business luck. Birds bring wealth, and bird feathers protect from accidents during travel. In Taoist feng shui, birds are regarded as cosmic messengers.

 

Birds flying towards you are the best signals. Birds flying away from you suggest a missed opportunity. A bird flying upwards is a good sign. Birds singing in the morning bring good news. When birds build nests in you garden, it is a very good sign heralding prosperity or increased income.

11 Feng Shui Tips for Creating the Perfect Kitchen

 

When we analyze the Feng Shui of a home, one of the key areas to look at is the kitchen. The kitchen is believed to be the source of a family’s wealth due to its function of producing food. This is where food is prepared and is often also where family and friends gather. As such, the energies within this space have an important bearing on the overall luck of the family and household.

Here are some guidelines to follow when designing your kitchen.

 

1. BACK OF THE HOME IS BEST

It is best for kitchens to be situated at the back of the home, as those located in front are believed to weaken the family’s wealth luck. You need to avoid the SW or NW of the home as well. When a kitchen is located in the SW, it negatively impacts the luck of the Mother; while in the NW, it badly afflicts the luck of the Father. If your kitchen happens to be in one of these sectors, make sure that, at the least,your stove is not located in the SW or NW sectors of the kitchen itself.

 

2. AVOID HAVING STOVE UNDER A BEDROOM OR TOILET

When planning the layout of your kitchen, the location of the cooking stove is very important. Having the cooking stove located under a bedroom or worse, directly under a bed, brings bad luck to its occupants as it signifies being burnt by extreme Fire chi. Apart from repositioning the bed, you can also place a piece of natural crystal (Yang Earth) under the bed to weaken the shar chi.

The toilet is where unwanted waste and dirt is washed away, thus having your cooking stove below it severely impacts the health of your family. This also holds the symbolic meaning of flushing your wealth away.

 

3. BEDROOM & TOILET DOORS SHOULD NOT FACE KITCHEN

Bedroom and toilet doors should never open out directly into the kitchen as this feature puts you in the line of shar chi, weakening everyone’s health. When it comes to toilet doors, the reasoning is as much about feng shui as it is about practicality. After all, it is a terrible idea to have a toilet in the same vicinity as your food preparation!

 

4. DON’T HAVE MAIN DOOR FACING KITCHEN ENTRANCE

The main door of your home should never face the entrance to the kitchen as this leads to unnecessary bills and expenditures. This is also why having an open concept home where the kitchen shares the same space as the living room is not considered lucky.

 

5. AVOID EXPOSED OVERHEAD BEAMS

Exposed overhead beams are not encouraged in any part of the home because they bring “pressing down” chi, creating undue pressure and emotional stress in those who spend time beneath them. If you are feeling down all the time and unmotivated, have a look up at your ceiling. There just may be some exposed beams causing problems. This can be fixed by installing a false ceiling.

 

6. SEPARATE YOUR STOVE & SINK

Placing your stove right next to the kitchen sink leads to disharmony within the family, not to mention risk of injury due to splashing of hot oil when you cook. There should be at least a 3-ft gap. This also applies to ovens, electric kettles, rice cookers and deep fryers in relation to the sink.

 

7. KEEP STOVE & FRIDGE APART

The refrigerator represents Yin chi as it helps preserve food; the stove emits strong Yang chi which we use for cooking. There is thus a clash of Yin and Yang when they are placed right next to each other. Keep them apart for a more harmonious flow of chi.

 

8. MAINTAIN A CLEAN & WORKING KITCHEN

Declutter regularly. Keep the kitchen clean and organized. Broken countertops, leaking faucets and cabinets in disrepair bring obstacles. Fix them as soon as they get broken or stop working. Drinking and eating from chipped plates, bowls and cups likewise impacts very negatively on the luck of the user, so make it a point to get rid of broken dinnerware immediately. Kitchen knives and cutlery should be kept in drawers when not in use.

 

9. THE MORE BURNERS ON THE STOVE, THE BETTER

When deciding on a stove, go for those with more than one burner, as a single burner means having only one source of income. Chinese families always emphasize the importance of having many sources of income, so the more burners on the stove, the better!

 

10. BEWARE MIRRORS

While mirrors signify abundance when they reflect food on your table and multiply happiness when family members eat together, do not have mirrors reflect the stove or oven. Doing so generates excess Fire chi, which brings danger of accidents and disasters.

11. AVOID PLANTS IN THE KITCHEN

Never decorate your kitchen exclusively in green or place too many plants or flowers there. This introduces too much Wood chi, which can overly strengthen the Fire chi of the kitchen.

How You Sleep Can Reveal Your Innermost Desires!!

 

How you sleep says more about you than you realize – your dreams, your hopes, and most of all your yearning for loving and touching. How you sleep reveals what you are really looking for in a soul mate. Remember that often what we feel and what we think we want may be quite the opposite of what our inner consciousness wants.

 

Here we highlight the six most common sleeping postures – check these out and see what your sleeping position is telling you about what you really want in a guy… or a gal.

 

 

THE BABY

how-you-sleep-reveal-innermost-desires-0This is the foetus position, when one sleeps curled up like a baby in the womb. The hands can be held together at the neck or between the legs. This is reportedly the most common sleep position and is also indicative of the most normal type personality. Such men and women are generally secure and well-balanced individuals.

 

FOR HER Women who sleep like a baby in the womb are described as being incredibly loving and sweet. They are very tough ladies who run their homes with firm hands, but they are also warm and sensitive individuals. Women who sleep like babies tend to be shy and do not trust others easily. They like men who are sensitive and caring of others. Not for them the arrogant, know-it-all type of guy. They value humility, decency and honesty. If you are the flamboyant, show-off type, you can forget about this lady. She has little time for the dramatic and grand flourish.

 

FOR HIM Men who sleep like a baby just love being mothered. In a sense, they have never grown up, so they like “big mama”. If you tend to be on the plump side, you will appeal to his need for the warmth of the womb. He likes women who can take charge of situations and he will seldom allow himself to be unfaithful. To him, the family unit offers an irresistible sense of well-being. So such men usually make faithful husbands.

 

 

THE ROMANTIC

how-you-sleep-reveal-innermost-desires-0

These people sleep on their stomachs with their hands in the surrender position flat on the bed. Their heads can be turned to the left or right. They rest easy and are pretty well balanced. Their sleep posture suggests they are in dreamland, visualizing the scenes that make their hearts sing and their eyes smile with joyousness.

 

FOR HER Women who sleep this way are incurable romantics. They dream always of the knight in shining armour and are seldom disappointed, even when their knight turns out to be less than expected. This is because they are eternal optimists – always ready for the next guy that will come into their life and sweep them off their feet. They can be practical and down-to-earth, but they know they want a romantic to share their life. Married women who sleep this way are usually very much in love with their spouses. This is a happy sleep posture.

 

FOR HIM Men who sleep on their stomachs will usually make excellent husband material. They are romantic, but also down-to-earth and practical. They usually fall for women who are sweet and non-intimidating – preferring the ladylike types to the flirtatious or forward sirens. In love, they like to take their time and it is a bad idea to hurry them into marriage.

 

 

THE WILD THING

how-you-sleep-reveal-innermost-desires-0This is the freedom personified sleep posture, with both legs and hands flung out in wild abandonment. It is an indication of their free spirit. Here is a person who does not feel shackled either by society’s norms or their own cultural or family restrictions. Such people are usually adventurous and courageous. But they can also be brash and thin-skinned. They do not take kindly to criticism.

 

FOR HER Women who sleep with abandonment tend to be very adventurous and they are willing to give everything a chance. They make good friends and are often generous with their time and money. Many men will find them irresistible and respond easily to their love of life and their non-judgmental outlook. They are free spirits not bound by convention.

 

FOR HIM Men who sleep this way have a secret yearning to run away and do their own thing. Many often do – sail around the world, climb Mount Everest or swim the English Channel. They respond to women who share their appreciation of the environment, and their love of adventure and travel. Men who sleep this way make wonderful friends and in their more mature years are incredibly reassuring to have around

 

 

THE STRAITJACKET

how-you-sleep-reveal-innermost-desires-0Lying by one’s side with both arms by the side, like a log. This is a posture of inner constraint and invisible chains binding you to a set of principles. You do not feel free and your psyche is ruled by powerful subconscious rules, which may be cultural, religious or traditional. Such people are generally quiet and reserved and they often set the moral high ground for others.

 

FOR HER This is a sleep position that is suggestive of someone very decorous and correct in the way they interact with others. Women who sleep this way are usually afraid to take risks in love and are reluctant to be adventurous. They need a man who is strong enough to reassure their hidden fears. Usually they respond to a father figure – someone used to authority and leadership. Women who sleep this way tend to trust people easily and may be naïve to the point of being gullible. When in love, they can be very “needy”, often clinging to their loved one. So the men in their lives could find them too possessive. Learn to relax and let go of the tension. You will be more successful in your love life then.

 

FOR HIM The guy who sleeps this way has probably been through some kind of regimental discipline – so he could be from the army or from a strict private school. His life is well ordered and he finds comfort in tradition and the norms of behavior. Men who sleep this way are usually easy to please, as long as you follow the traditional way of doing things and responding to people. You know what to expect from them. They are drawn to sweet young things who come from sheltered homes. Fussy and aggressive women usually turn them off.

 

 

THE SEDUCER

how-you-sleep-reveal-innermost-desires-0These people sleep on their side with both arms flung out in front of them, resting on a pillow. Their legs are stretched out straight and their faces are seldom buried in the pillow – instead the face is often averted upwards. This is the seductive sleep posture.

 

FOR HER Women who sleep this way are the seductress sirens of the sleep spectrum. They are unconscious flirts, often sending out unexpected “come on” gestures, yet seldom making it easy for the man. Such women tend to be enticing and sexy. What they love most is the chase. They do not like men who give up too easily and they love being seduced. Flirt with her if your lady sleeps this way. Pamper her also and play hard to get – all at the same time. If you do not, she could well get bored with you and look for someone more exciting. This lady loves to be surprised and she has a very open mind about a lot of things. But never take her for granted, because then she will simply run away.

 

FOR HIM Men who sleep this way tend to be rather effeminate and could prefer the company of their own gender. If they do not, then it is likely they are drawn to women who are bossy, and who take a leading role in their love life. Seductress type men are not necessarily the romantic or flirtatious type, but they are very touchy, feely types. They like the foreplay better than the real thing, but they prefer women who initiate the big moves.

 

 

THE SOCIALITE

how-you-sleep-reveal-innermost-desires-0

These people sleep on their sides with both arms resting lightly by their side, and their heads resting gently on the pillow. All through the night, they will maintain this position of sleep, and in the mornings, they awaken with hair pretty much in place. This is often the sleep position of the narcissistic person.

 

FOR HER She is easy-going and very sociable. Women who sleep this way get along with most people and are usually very popular. Such women however tend to be too trusting so they often fall for the wrong kind of guy and allow themselves to be taken advantage of. They prefer good-looking men. Appearances are important to them.

 

FOR HIM This can be described as the gregarious male – flamboyant, charming and sociable. They love glamorous women and can often be depended upon to be at all the fun parties. They move easily with the in-crowd. Men who sleep with on their sides with arms pressed close to their bodies also tend to be egotistical and have a rather inflated view of themselves. They will usually go for the woman who is a suitable trophy for their social climbing ambitions.

 

how-you-sleep-reveal-innermost-desires-0COUPLES WHO SLEEP FACING EACH OTHER are said to reflect their mutual respect for each other. These are two independent individuals, probably with their own careers. This is the sleep of the power couple. If they are covered by a single duvet cover or blanket, it shows a greater closeness between them. If they sleep each with their own blankets, it indicates distinct and separate lives..

how-you-sleep-reveal-innermost-desires-0

WHEN COUPLES SLEEP CLOSE TOGETHER on their stomachs, it suggests a depth of relationship between the two. When the woman sleeps this way facing her spouse it suggests a subconscious dependence on him. If he sleeps with his arm over her back, he is manifesting possessiveness.
