Color is a big factor when it comes to interior decorating, more so with feng shui in mind. Not only can it evoke particular moods, it can also tie different parts of the home together and create visual illusions that modify the size of a space and its brightness, and positively (or negatively) affect your luck as well.

The use of color in feng shui is closely linked to many formulas involving the five elements, namely Fire, Wood, Water, Metal and Earth. Each element is represented by a color, and according to the Eight Aspirations formula, certain colors have a dominant influence over particular sectors of the home, bringing specific types of luck you can leverage to create a well-rounded, happy and prosperous life for yourself and those you live with.

The NORTH is a Water sector that governs career matters, and activating this sector brings upward mobility and income luck. Colors that represent Water are black and all shades of blue. Since the North hosts the Victory Star in 2022, a number that is also fueled by the Water element, decorating this sector with “Water” colors boosts competitive luck and success as well. But be careful not to overwhelm this sector with too much black and blue, as too much water signifies “drowning”. Accents are much better, through the use of scatter cushions, curtains, carpets and rugs. If you want to use blue wallpaper or paint a whole wall blue, best to pick a light shade of blue reminiscent of the sky.

You can also use the Blue Mongoose carpet or Bejeweled Blue Dragon here as effective activators.

The NORTHEAST & SOUTHWEST are both Earth sectors bringing different kinds of luck. Lucky colors for these sectors are yellow, light brown, beige and cream. The NE influences education and study luck, and activating this sector helps ensure academic excellence. This is a good sector to enhance if you have school-going children living with you. It is also where the Prosperity Star resides in 2022 so you can expect wealth luck to follow suit.

The SW meanwhile influences the luck of the Matriarch. It is also the sector that governs all matters to do with love, romance and marriage. You can decorate this sector with Earth element colors to safeguard the luck of the matriarch and to attract loving energies into your relationships. It is important, however, to note that the SW also powers up the Earthly chi of the Illness Star in 2022, so while you energize for good fortune here, you must also place strong cures to counter this affliction. We suggest displaying the White Wu Lou with Joyous Cranes here.

The EAST & SOUTHEAST of the home are influenced by the Wood element, whose colors are all shades of green. Plants are also a wonderful source of Wood chi. Just make sure they are thriving, as there is nothing worse than wilted or unhealthy plants, which would end up having the opposite effect. The East and SE are excellent for energizing health and money luck, respectively. You can also display the Green Wealth Cabinet in the SE and fill it with money given to you by someone wealthy to attract wealth luck for yourself, and the Green Wu Lou with Joyous Cranes in the East to boost health.

Note that the East plays host to the Quarrelsome Star in 2022, so make sure its hostile energies are not equally enhanced by any activating you do in this sector. You can suppress the argumentative energies here with the Magical Cosmic Apple.

The SOUTH brings fame and recognition and is represented by the element of Fire. Keep this sector brightly lit and tastefully decorated with maroons, reds and oranges. An excellent placement enhancer is the Rising Phoenix. Since the South is ruled by the Star of Future Prosperity in 2022, activating this sector also boosts completion luck and improves your long-term prospects.

The NORTHWEST & WEST are of the Metal element and they the luck of mentors and descendants respectively. Boost the energies here with the colors white, silver and gold. Any kind of metal furnishings make fabulous enhancers as well. Display the Jade Emperor Windchime or Heavenly Star Windchime in the NW to attract wise mentors and benefactors, and the Happy Marriage Comb in the West to attract the luck of filial children, as well as a harmonious and successful marriage.

Because the West is afflicted by the Loss Star in 2022, activating this sector can increase risk of robbery and betrayals. Subdue this affliction by placing the Armored Elephant and Rhinoceros here.

When using colors to activate a sector, remember, there is no need to paint every wall or have all the furnishings in the same color. That would be both garish AND unlucky! Play with different shades, pair them with complementary colors, or spread them out in the little details to fill your home with auspicious energies. Remember. Balance is the key in feng shui!

FENG SHUI 2022

GETTING THE MOST OUT OF THE #9 STAR

The #9 star, often referred to as the Magnification Star, enhances all the energies around it, whether good or bad. In the presence of the #9, lucky stars become luckier and afflictive ones become even more so. This makes it extremely important to keep a close watch over the South this year, where the #9 star has flown. To avoid de-stabling fluctuations of luck, one should activate this sector in months when auspicious stars fly in and keep things quiet when unlucky stars appear. When the monthly flying stars indicate danger, risk or misfortune, tone things down significantly and make sure to always have the necessary cures in place to prevent malicious energies from reaching you.

DEALING WITH ANNUAL AFFLICTIONS

This year’s charts show the #9 star sharing the SOUTH sector with the Yin House and Facing Three Killings. Under its influence, these stars can manifest great degrees of misfortune, so they must never be taken lightly. The Yin House drains a space and its inhabitants of vital Yang energy. Those who fall under its influence lose drive and vitality and become more vulnerable to spiritual disturbances. If you already have weak personal chi, you must do what you can to raise the Yang energies with the Yang Energy Enhancer.

The Facing Three Killings meanwhile manifests 3 kinds of bad luck – loss of loved ones, loss of money and loss of one’s good name. It is the result of an indirect affliction originating from the Three Killings in the North. Hence countering it requires a two-pronged approach. Display the Three Killings Protection Shield in the North, and place the Three Celestial Guardians the Chi Lin, Fu Dog and Pi Yao in the South.

MANY LUCKY FACETS TO THE #9

Despite its bias to extremes, the #9 star remains one of the luckiest numbers to activate. Also the Star of Future Prosperity, it holds the kind of good fortune that smiles down on one’s long-term plans and manifests greater health, wealth and happiness. It is the original number of the South, so activating it brings fame and fortune, rank and recognition, as well as promotion to high office.

It is also the magical number of Completion. It is the last single digit number, after which everything comes back full circle, and the only one where every multiple adds back to itself. Unlocking its auspicious energies churns up the luck of successful endings, happy outcomes and new opportunities… very useful in a year filled with all kinds of unprecedented challenges.

The #9 is a star that shines ever brighter the closer we get to Period of 9. When 4th Feb 2024 arrives, not so long away now, the #9 will rival #8 for its auspiciousness. This date being less than two years away suggests that harnessing its luck now favors not only a strong foundation for future success, but the speedy culmination of one’s goals and efforts as well.

Being a Fire element star in a Fire sector boosts it further, so imagine how close it is to its full potential!

ENHANCE WITH FIRE ENERGY

One of the best ways to bring the #9 Star to life is with Fire energy. Keep the South brightly lit or use RED colour furnishings like carpets, lampshades and soft furnishings. What is even better is to energize the SOUTH sector with the 9 Rainbow Horses. Horse are the soul of the South. They are potent sources of Yang energy and having the image of 9 horses in the South magnifies the great good fortune of the South further. We have designed 9 horses in all shades of colour, each to symbolise something a little different, to activate the great power of the number 9.

Here are the horses, each with matching auspicious rhyming couplet:

This red horse signifies successes and victories that stretch far and wide. Ensures plans progress smoothly and helps in expanding one’s market and extending one’s reach.

This Horse symbolizes scholastic brilliance, graduating through the Golden Gates and climbing up the ranks of society.

This horse personifies the vitality of the Dragon Horse, boosting strength and resilience. Boosts energies and improves one’s inner vigour.

Brings the luck of grand momentum, giving one the strength to push past one’s limits, and to reach new heights of success.

Manifests fast-track promotion and puts the boss, and those who matter, firmly on your side. Immensely lucky if you have ambitions to rise quickly and high up the career ladder.

Brings resource luck, so every good idea you have can be put into motion.

Brings leadership luck, denoting the ability to build an effective and loyal team. It boosts personal wisdom, charisma and conviction.

This is a horse enjoying the fruits of its labor, representing celebration, joyfulness, success and contentment.

This black horse is a warrior horse, ready for battle. Its lucky vibrations signify victory over rivals, prevailing over competition, and achieving causes close to one’s heart.

Display these nine horses together in the South, for the most effective activation of the powerful number 9 star in the SOUTH.

The Rat should display the Dragon, Monkey and Ox to always garner help and support from your secret friend and allies. As the Ox is also your soulmate in the House of Creativity and Cleverness, surrounding yourself with its image activates this very special cosmic bond.

The Ox attracts supportive friends, family and colleagues by having the Snake, Rooster and Rat by its side.

Auspicious activities to carry out during this time of the year are:

• Making offerings to household deities.
• Wearing new clothes, particularly in red.
• Hosting a large banquet for family and friends.
• Taking part in lion and dragon dances, as well as festive parades featuring beating gongs and clashing cymbals.

Many children receive “lucky money” in red envelopes and household doors are open to let good luck enter on Chinese New Year Day. It is believed that whatever happens during Chinese New Year, and whatever mood you set, will have an impact on how things go for you for the rest of the year. It is thus important to be happy and cheerful during these 15 days, to hold your temper and not get angry unnecessarily. Surround yourself with people who put you in a good mood.

It is also important to choose good dates for certain activities. For good business luck for the coming year, it is vital to pick a good day to “re-open” the office after the Chinese New Year break. When you re-open your office or business premises, it is good to make some noise with a lion dance. If you can, it is also auspicious to have the lions roll in buckets full of mandarin oranges, Chinese coins and ingots into your office – as this symbolizes the rolling in of gold, wealth and prosperity, and bodes well for your luck in the coming year.

PICK THE RIGHT DAY TO RE-START WORK

Here’s a list of the best days to re-start work. If you cannot re-start on one of these dates, then pick an average day. Try to avoid returning to work on a day that conflicts your animal sign.

AVERAGE DAYS TO START WORK

If you have travel plans during the 15 days of Chinese New Year, whether for holiday or for work, be sure to pick a good date. Again, this will have a bearing on your luck for the rest of the year. However, avoid travelling during days that “conflict” with your animal sign.

Chinese New Year is round the corner and we are busy spring-cleaning and working through our list of feng shui updates, checking directions, moving furniture around and making sure all our new cures and enhancers are in their rightful locations. It is something we look forward to every year, as it is a wonderful opportunity to redecorate and prepare for the arrival of fresh new energies.

One of the areas we pay special attention to every year is our workspace, i.e. our desk.

It is an important extension of our careers and aspirations, so we like to keep this area in harmony with the changing chi. Since the pandemic started, we now have quite a few workspaces set up. We are sure many of you are the same!

Take the time to ensure all your designated desks enjoy good feng shui next year. Whether at home or in the office, here are some useful steps to getting your desk prepped and ready for a smooth and auspicious working year ahead.

1) CHECK YOUR DESK LOCATION

Compass sectors that are lucky in one year can become unlucky in the next, depending on which Flying Stars take up residence. Seeing as we spend a big bulk of our working hours at our desks, it only makes sense to locate it in a sector blessed with uplifting and inspiring energies.

The best sectors to place your desk in 2022 are the Northeast, North and Northwest. Check the compass directions of your big and small tai chi spaces to see if you need to make any changes.

If your desk is already in a good sector, make sure to activate it with appropriate enhancers. Display a Rooster to counter office politics and a crystal sphere to absorb any negative chi.

However, should your current location turn unlucky in 2022, best if you can move your desk to a more auspicious sector, failing which, strong cures should be employed to subdue any afflictive energies and to keep you safe from harm.

Remember to also take note of these important feng shui rules when determining your desk’s new location:

• Place your desk diagonally opposite the room door so you are not being constantly disturbed by the flow of chi.
• Make sure you have a good view of the door at all times, as having your back to the door encourages acts of betrayal and backstabbing.
• Try not to sit facing a blank wall. This signifies big obstacles in your career and can hinder your advancement. If there is no other choice, hang artwork depicting wide open fields to open you up to new opportunities again.
• Pick a location where you can sit with a solid wall behind you to attract strong support luck. Strengthen further with an artwork of rolling golden mountains.

2) CHECK YOUR SITTING POSITION

As a general rule, you should always face your Sheng Chi direction if you want to tap career and business luck. The exceptions are when it clashes with the Tai Sui or it has you with your back towards the annual Three Killings. When your Sheng Chi is afflicted like this, pick one of your other lucky directions instead.

In 2022, the Tai Sui settles in the Northeast, while the Three Killings flies to the North. Hence you MUST NOT sit with your desk facing NORTHEAST or SOUTH next year. This is understandably much easier to do at home than in the office, which is why we have created the remedies to help you counter these afflictions.

If you have no choice but to face Northeast, it is vital you keep the Tai Sui firmly on your side all through the year. Pay homage to the Tai Sui by displaying the Tai Sui 2022 Plaque on your desk and carrying the Tai Sui Amulet at all times. You can further appease him by wearing Pi Yao jewelry.

If facing South is your only option, you must make sure the vicious energies of the Three Killings do not reach you. Stay protected by displaying the Three Killings Protection Shield on your desk and keeping the 3 Celestials Protection Shield Amulet close.

3) ENERGISE YOUR DESK WITH FRESH CHI

When your desk is a source of joy, you will be more likely to stay focused and productive. Once you have your desk location and sitting position sorted out, don’t forget to refresh the chi around it.Start by giving it a good spring clean and declutter session. Clutter takes up precious space and subconsciously causes the mind a lot of stress. If you have allowed things to get out of hand, now is a good time to put things away, throw out unwanted junk and replace what does not function anymore.

A desk that is clean and clear helps you stay focused and productive for longer, which is why keeping the clutter at bay on a permanent basis is just as important. Make use of desktop organisers and drawer units to store things away neatly, at least till you find the time to sort them out again.

Finally, spruce it up! Create an inviting and zen workspace for yourself with things that make you feel good. A small, healthy plant, aromatherapy or even new stationery.

Step into 2022 on the right footing by starting work on these auspicious dates:

BEST DAY TO START WORK

The post How to Feng Shui Your Work Desk for 2022 appeared first on WOFS.com.

Based on detailed calculation, this year is a good year to receive the God of Wealth on the first day of Chinese New Year. The God of Wealth this year brings immense wealth and abundance of good fortune.

This year, the direction the God of Wealth comes from is the SOUTHEAST.

On the first day, the daily Lo Shu number 8 shines in the South sector. This brings immense good luck to homes that face South, or that have main entrances located In the South sector. Homes that face South will thus enjoy plenty of wealth, prosperity, and unexpected career advancements if they invite the God of Wealth to come into their home.

Inviting in the God of Wealth brings plenty of prosperity, and unexpected career advancements coupled with salary increase for household occupants.

But note that just because your home does not face South does not mean you cannot greet the God of Wealth. All you need is to have an open space in your garden that allows you to face Southeast when setting up the offering table.

THE RECEIVING RITUAL

To receive the God of Wealth, select an auspicious hour according to your animal sign of birth. The table below provides time guides for the welcoming ritual. (Note: those born in the Year of Rabbit, you are advised NOT to receive the God of Wealth as this day is your conflict animal sign day.)

Firstly, take a shower. It is important to receive God of Wealth with a clean body and new clothes.

Secondly, use the compass to locate the Southeast direction. Turn your altar table to face the Southeast direction. Place an incense burner in the center of the table. Place all ingredients on a red-colored plate behind the incense burner. Place two sets of three small cups in front of the incense burner. Make two rows. Pour the tea into the first row of cups and white rice wine into the second row of cups.

When you are ready, you can start to receive the God of Wealth at the auspicious time selected. Light the candles on the altar in your home and turn on all the lights, and open all doors and windows. Make three prostrations to the Deities on your altar, then light the candle and 3 large incense sticks on the small table set up outside the house.

The Patriarch of the family should hold the large incense sticks and prostrate to the God of Wealth. When making prayers, he should hold the incense stick in both hands and kneel down. He must invite the God of Wealth to come to the house, and make the request on behalf of the family members. Then he should place the large incense sticks in the incense burner. Light the medium incense sticks and distribute to the rest of family members. Everyone should pray to the God of Wealth and invite him into the home.

When incense sticks are burnt half way, focus your mind on inviting the God of Wealth into your home. After that, make a toast. Pour 3 cups of tea (about 80%) to the floor. Then you make the second toast of the wine. Pour 80% of the wine of the 3 cups onto the floor.

Light three incense sticks and hold both hands. As you do so, visualize the God of Wealth walking in front of you and entering your house, bringing your home all kinds of wealth luck.

Let the God of Wealth enter your house first before your foot enters your house. Go straight to your altar at home. Place the incense sticks on the incense burner. Now inform the Deities on your altar that you have invited in the God of Wealth into your home. If you have previously purchased the Trio of Wealth Gods sitting on Tiger Plaque or figurines, you should place them in the Northeast corner of your living room to symbolize the Gods of Wealth taking up residence in your home. Place 3 cups of rice wine as offering to your Gods of Wealth as well as 3 freshly-lit joss sticks.

If you want to optimize the energies surrounding you, the first thing to do is to keep track of their annual locations. Then, place suitable enhancers where auspicious stars rule to concentrate and boost your good fortune luck. Remember to also stay protected against the ill effects emanating from inauspicious stars by engaging the help of powerful cures and you should be well on your way to a smoother and luckier 2022!

BIG AND SMALL AUSPICIOUS STARS

Begin by considering where the Big and Small Auspicious Stars have landed. These very lucky stars bring abundance, good news, prosperity and success..and the more of them you activate, the more good fortune luck you can actualize for yourself.

Big Auspicious luck often manifests in the form of grand windfalls. From lottery wins to big promotions, the benefits are obvious, at times even life-changing. The effects of Small Auspicious, on the other hand, are more subtle but just as meaningful. Tapping into its fabulous energies invites the kind of victories that prove you are on the right track and motivate you to keep on pushing forward.

In 2022, we are fortunate to enjoy 9 such stars and they are scattered all around the compass wheel in the locations NE2, E1, E3, SE1, SE2, SW1, SW2, W1 and W3.

Seeing as there are so many, it would be a waste to simply let them pass you by. Display the Big Auspicious Mirror or Activating Prosperity Tree in these subsectors to capture their lucky vibrations and enhance your success luck. You should also carry the Big Auspicious Amulet whenever attending important interviews, meetings or negotiations to boost your chances at a favourable outcome.

GOLDEN DEITY STAR

When you have the heavens looking out for you, there is much you can accomplish and this year, the 24 Mountains ushers in not one, but two Golden Deity Stars. These take position in East 2 and Northwest 1 respectively, showering residents of the home with heavenly protection, enhanced wealth and robust health. Celestial luck also keeps you out of harm’s way and ensures you are never short of helpful mentors and benefactors. Activate with the Kuan Yin Plaque or Amitabha Gau.

HEAVEN SEAL STAR

Another celestial star sending out great heavenly energies is the Heaven Seal Star. In 2022, it makes itself comfortable in Southeast 3, benefiting the Snake, as well as those living in Southeast facing homes and Southeast bedrooms. If you are looking to boost your mentor and Gui Ren luck, energize this wonderful star with the Teapot Completion Horse.

TAI SUI

Northeast 3 plays host to the Tai Sui of the year. Keep him firmly on your side by displaying the Tai Sui 2022 Plaque in this subsector and carrying the Tai Sui Amulet wherever you go to bolster his support. As you must never anger the Tai Sui, check that seating arrangements in the dining and living areas do not face Northeast and avoid undertaking any renovations, knocking or drilling here this year.

NATURAL DISASTER STAR

The Star brings danger of natural calamities often categorized as “acts of God” like floods, fires and earthquakes. These cause big scale material destruction, physical injuries and emotional distress so it is extremely vital that this star’s vicious energies are properly subdued. In 2022, it flies into North 2. Display the White Umbrella Goddess with her 100 protective parasols in this subsector to remedy.

YEARLY KILLINGS

Northeast 1 plays host to the Yearly Killings, a star bringing strong yin energies which weaken your inner chi and create conflicts in your relationships. To bring the energies back into balance, we recommend displaying the Yang Energy Enhancer here.

YIN HOUSE STAR

The Yin House Star is another star that saps yang energy. It brings about a lack of motivation, puts a spotlight on negative emotions and can cause residents to fall into a state of depression. This lights switched on in these locations to elevate the yang energy. If this is your front door or bedroom, make sure you also have Yang Energy Enhancers placed in these sectors to keep the energy continuously revitalized.

THE THREE KILLINGS

The Three Killings takes position in the North. It threatens three types of misfortune – loss of wealth, loss of a loved one and loss of reputation and cannot be taken lightly. Display the Three Celestial Guardians Protection Shield in the North to keep the 3 Killings under control. If your home faces North or your bedroom is located North, you should also carry the portable version whenever you leave home. Note that you must never have the Three Killings coming at you from behind so make it a point not to sit facing South this year.

SUI PO STAR

The Sui Po star sits directly opposite the Tai Sui on the 24 Mountains compass and in 2022, this location is Southwest 3. To calm the energies and to avoid incurring the wrath of the Tai Sui, place the Tai Sui 2022 Plaque here. You can also display the Dragon Pi Xie, a well known favourite of his and an excellent wealth enhancer, to keep him appeased.

YI DUO STAR

The Yi Duo star is a magnification star, much like the Completion Star #9. Combined with auspicious stars, it brings extremely good fortune but in the presence of unlucky stars, it worsens their afflictions even more. As such, always be mindful of the stars in its vicinity and be extra vigilant during the months in which bad monthly stars fly in.

In 2022, the Yi Duo star makes its way to West 2, which also plays host to the annual #7 Loss Star. While everyone should ensure the afflictive energies of this sector are kept under control, residents of West facing homes, West sector bedrooms and those born in Rooster years are most at risk. Deflect this star’s harmful projections by displaying the Armored Rhino and Elephant and carrying the portable version when out and about.

ROBBERY STAR

The Robbery Star lands in Northwest 3, bringing loss of wealth and assets by attracting snatch thieves, robbers and scammers. Those of you with Northwest facing homes and Northwest sector bedrooms must enhance security measures and take extra precautions when going away for holidays or long trips. To keep your money and belongings safe, subdue it with the Anti-Robbery Plaque placed in NW3.

But be mindful that the art you hang, as well as evoking emotions that make you feel good, should harmonise nicely with the changing energies of the year.
