Creating a Feng House

There's more to creating a feng house than just observing the basic principles of feng shui!

Creating a feng house isn't difficult, but it does take a bit of focus and work. While the basic principles of feng shui are necessary to creating a feng house, there's more to it: most of your chi comes from the people in and around your home.

• Given that, there are a few tips you can take to purify your home and create a warm, welcoming, and homey atmosphere for you, your family, and your guests.
  
• Make sure the entrance of your home is particularly welcoming. Never use it for storage and put coats and shoes away as much as possible. Touches like water fountains, green plants, or attractive artwork make a visual welcome when you return home.
  
• Use "air purifiers" to absorb negative chi in your feng house. You can go traditional with this (green plants, candles, incense, a bowl of sea salt) or more modern (a HEPA filter, for example). Small amounts of black in your color scheme also help to absorb negative energy (although too much black creates it).
  
• Observe the old adage "never go to bed angry" to a tee. No matter how mad you are, it's not worth the negative energy that will fester through your house that night. You don't have to resolve the argument, but make sure you give your son/ wife/ husband/ sister a hug and tell them you love them all the same.
  
• Root out and eliminate sources of sha chi in your home. Whether it's an "obligation" item you're keeping around because it was a gift from a rich relative or tokens from failed relationships or their ilk, this sort of negative energy can permeate your entire home, destroying any chance of a feng house.
  
• Balance the elements in your home and your life. Even if you're an overwhelmingly fiery person, you know that you need some water around to keep you balanced. This sort of technique will create a more even energy in your home.
  

Combining these tips with basic feng shui will help you to establish the perfect feng house!
