New Year Feng Shui for 2014
Happy New Year!
I hope your Christmas was memorable and bright.
I also hope that you’ve kept up with my post-Halloween thankfulness challenge. If so, consider it a good habit!
2014 is going to bring in good luck for more people. Money will flow in more easily for most, but you’ll have to work for it.
Here are six easy tips for bringing positive Yang energy into your home for the New Year.
Clean Under Rugs & Carpets
Clean under your rugs and carpets. Dust accumulates and energy stagnates in these places.
Vacuum Under the Beds
Vacuum out the area under your beds (except for beds where a pregnant woman is sleeping). Not only will you get rid of allergens, but you’ll also get energy flowing.
If It’s Broke, Fix It!
Do you have any broken items in the house (stairway railing, table, stovetop burner, electrical outlet)? Don’t delay in fixing them, as they can cost you much more in time and money down the road.
Bring Brightness In
Open up your home. If you are in a warm area right now, open the windows and doors occasionally. If not, at least open up the blinds during the day. Invite the sun’s bright energy in.
Fix Those Doors
Be sure that all of your doors, particularly your front door, open easily without creaking or rubbing. Joint problems are common with those who have creaky doors.
Chi flows in from your front door, so for the sake of your Career, Wisdom, Family, Wealth, Fame, Love, Children, Helpful People and Health areas, keep that energy coming in!
Make It Appealing
When was the last time you repainted your home? If it has been more than a couple of years, consider a new coat. If you are a renter, spray down the outside on your next warm day to get rid of cobwebs and dust.
When your home gets run down, its energy begins to fade. This is exactly why major hotel chains and department stores constantly upgrade their properties. They understand the need to keep the energy of their multi-million dollar properties alive and flowing.
Make your own home inviting. If you had to do it all over again, would you want to move in? If not, make it so!
Make 2014 a great year!
Next Steps
If things don’t start out quite right for you, a professional space-clearing or personalized Feng Shui consultation may be needed to get the energy moving again.

3 Christmas Feng Shui Tips
‘Tis the season of greetings and cheer. So, let’s take advantage of it and let it charge our homes with wonderful energy, or “Chi” as we call it in Feng Shui.
While I know that the holidays can be stressful, let’s instead use the holiday spirit to boost our energy.
I love the holiday season for many reasons: family and friends getting together, children’s faces lighting up when they see all the holiday decorations and presents….
But, the best part to me is that I can use holiday decorations to boost the Feng Shui energy in my house.
Here are three tips for getting the best Chi flow during the holidays.
Feng Shui Christmas Tip #1: Make Your Doorway Bright
You don’t have to go crazy with the holiday decorations, but Christmas lights keeping the doorway extra bright not only welcome family and friends, but also new energy for your home.
If possible, keep with the color theme of the Career area of the Bagua by using blue lights around your door.
Feng Shui Christmas Tip #2: Tree Placement
Try placing that plush and tall Christmas tree in the Fame and Reputation area to give you that extra boost of recognition. Remember that the color of Fame and Reputation is red. While you’re at it, add a big shiny star on top.
Alternatively, place your healthy green tree in the Family area of your home to bring the family together.
Feng Shui Christmas Tip #3: Present the Presents
Do you want to feel prosperous? Simply place lots of wrapped Christmas presents under the tree… early, if you can.
This will be one of the few times where I won’t call a pile of boxes “clutter.”
Think of how you felt when you were a child surrounded by holiday cheer and presents.
You never really grow out of that feeling. So don’t even try, Mr. Grinch!

Post-Halloween Chi Roundup
I hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween.
Which part of Halloween do you like better: the cobwebs and spooky decor or pumpkins and sweet candies?
If you answered cobwebs and spooky decor, that’s a Yin energy. If your answer is pumpkins and sweet candies, that’s a Yang energy.
Yin and Yang
Our life is filled with Yin and Yang. There has to be dark to have light.
Typically at Halloween, there’s more Yin energy than Yang energy. So now that Halloween is over, let’s clean out those cobwebs – fake ones as well as real ones. We’re now going to welcome the Yang energy into our homes for the holiday season.
Fall Cleaning
Let’s call this a Fall Cleaning. We’re going to chase away the excess Yin energy by cleaning up the cobwebs, sweeping away the dead leaves and cleaning the windows and door handles.
Be Thankful
While we are busy cleaning, let’s start bringing in the Yang energy by thinking about the things we are thankful for. Thanksgiving is just around the corner, after all.
- I am thankful for this cool weather.
- I am thankful for a place I can call home.
- I am thankful for a warm cup of coffee in the cool Fall morning.
Let’s try to be thankful for at least one thing a day and continue thanking until at least Thanksgiving to see what kind of Yang energy we can call into our homes.
If we can keep this up until Christmas and New Years, maybe our thankfulness will be a habit. Then I can show you how to start being thankful to attract a great career, wonderful people, wealth, good health and positive relationships into your life.
I am thankful for my blog followers!
Next Steps
Leave a comment telling me how you plan to clean out the Yin and thank in the Yang.
