Lesson 34. Feng Shui and wish fulfillment

Feng Shui elements

are the five types of energy (also known as wu-shin) - wood, fire, earth, metal and water. The system of five elements explains how different types of wu-shin interact with each other and how they move within nature. A tree is similar to plants that grow from the ground and go up and to the sides. Fire is like a hot flame that also moves upward. The earth is a stabilizer that develops and is located in four directions. Metal weakens when water interacts with it.

Most popular Feng Shui books explain these types of energy as simple physical forms. However, these categories are beyond the tangible. This theory is also used to describe changes in seasons, colors, numbers, and more.

Below are diagrams that summarize some of the associations with each of the five elements:

Five elements in feng shui

The interaction between the five elements of Feng Shui is one of the key principles of creating a balanced environment. Since the principles of Feng Shui explain living in harmony with nature, you need to be able to simulate how these five elements interact with each other.

feng shui circles

There are three circles that exist between these five principles: creation, destruction, control.

Circle of Creation

This diagram demonstrates the Circle of Creation between the five elements.

Circle of Creation in Feng Shui

In this cycle, the five principles shape each other:

  • WATER creates TREE (plants cannot survive without water);
  • WOOD creates FIRE (wood and coal ignite the flame);
  • FIRE creates EARTH (the ashes that remain after the fire will eventually turn into soil);
  • EARTH creates METAL (when the earth is compressed for a long time, it turns into stone, which forms metal);
  • METAL creates WATER (cold material causes water to condense).

When there is a shortage of a certain element or is absent altogether, we can turn to the accompanying or reinforcing element to strengthen it. For example, if there is a lack of fire, you can use this element in greater quantities, although this is dangerous. There is a better way - add the element of wood. Since it feeds the fire, the power of the missing element will increase.

Sometimes a certain element can be in abundance. In order to weaken it, you need to look at the Circle of Control or Destruction.

Circle of Destruction

Circle of Destruction in Feng Shui

In the Circle of Destruction, five principles destroy each other:

  • WATER extinguishes FIRE;
  • FIRE melts METAL;
  • METAL cuts WOOD;
  • TREE depletes the EARTH (it takes nutrients from the soil);
  • EARTH pollutes WATER.

We use the cycle of destruction to control the amount of energy of a certain element.

Circle of Control

Circle of Control in Feng Shui

Some Feng Shui practitioners also address another phenomenon called the Circle of Control. It is sometimes called the Dissolution, Weakening or Restoration Cycle. It is similar to the Circle of Creation, except that its cycle moves in the opposite direction.

In the Circle of Control:

  • A TREE absorbs WATER through its roots, which allows it to grow;
  • WATER corrodes METAL, turning it into rust;
  • METAL makes the EARTH weak, using its energy for its formation;
  • EARTH reduces FIRE;
  • FIRE burns WOOD to ashes.

Practitioners use the Circle of Weakening to reduce the power of a dominant element without completely destroying it, unlike the Circle of Destruction.

Feng Shui interior and Ba Zi birth chart

The interior of the house can be used to correct your Ba Zi birth chart. Knowing which elements are useful, you can enhance them with the interior of your home. For example, it is fashionable to warm up a cold birth card with warm shades of flowers, orange decorative items, etc.

Those who do not know Ba Zi and Feng Shui usually choose those colors that are already strong in the birth chart. The dominant element manifests itself in the interior according to Feng Shui through the desire to surround oneself with objects of the corresponding color.

My relative, who has a strong, unhealthy Metal in her chart, talks about her plans for renovations in her new apartment:

  • — I want white wallpaper, I don’t like any colored ones. I saw such a beautiful kitchen on a friend’s Instagram!
  • - White, perhaps?
  • - Yes, but how did you guess?

She is directly drawn to surround herself with the colors of Metal, although she knows that this element is not useful to her, that the apartment was designed according to Feng Shui for her personal benefit. Every time she needs to be reminded that she should add something useful to the apartment.

A client with strong, unhealthy Water in her chart chose an apartment with huge windows facing the North. At the same time, she allocated this particular northern room for herself (and this would be an unhealthy interior for her according to Feng Shui), and placed the children in the southern room.

And there are many such examples. Using the dominant element in the environment, a person realizes what is contained in the map, no matter whether it is useful or not. By strengthening your beneficial elements and weakening your unfavorable ones, using the interior according to Feng Shui, you correct your birth chart and improve your luck.

Five elements

So, the time has come to figure out what the five elements are in Feng Shui, the embodiment and influence of their energy in various objects and symbols.

Water

Water is one of the main elements of Feng Shui.

If you need this element to correct an imbalance in the house, then you need to use real water, and not its image. Clean circulating water is much more effective than standing water. This is why it is recommended to use fountains and aquariums in every Feng Shui school. This is a good way of placing water in a place where there is usually none.

Blue or black in large quantities can replace the energy of water on a vibrational level. So if you paint the walls in a room, for example, blue, it will create the energy of that element.

Tree

This is a feng shui element that is somewhat misunderstood. Wooden furniture, for example, is mostly passive, so it won't cause any harm even if it is placed throughout the apartment, including the floors.

If you want to use wood as a balancing element, then a live plant is quite suitable. A painting or carpet in green tones will not only decorate the room, but will also become a source of energy for the tree.

Fire

This is a contradictory element, and its location can bring either a lot of benefit or harm.

Most people from Western countries who have not thoroughly studied the art of Feng Shui do not know how to properly use this element. In Chinese culture, the color red symbolizes happiness, wealth and success.

Beyond any cultural or psychological associations, fire vibrations produce more heat. Painting doors red to make up for the lack of this element is a common myth in Feng Shui - such actions will not bring any benefit.

Fire colors that are used in the wrong places can cause accidents, divorces and other unwanted occurrences. This element can be represented by a large object in red, burgundy, hot pink or cranberry color.

Earth

This feng shui element is found in any object that is made using earth or stone. Things made of clay, ceramics, brick, marble, concrete also emit vibrations of the elements. Rose quartz and amethyst crystals also represent the element of Earth. This beginning is symbolized by the colors yellow, orange and brown. Artificial crystals do not have healing powers, although their use is very popular in some modern schools of feng shui.

Metal

Things made of copper, brass, bronze, tin, steel, silver and gold carry the energy of the metal. White or gray can improve the atmosphere where this element is not enough, but it is still better to use real metal. Furniture and decor in the room often have details made from this material, which will have the corresponding energy.

Metal file cabinets in the workplace can also be used to restore the strength of metal. Simply put, there is no need to buy special Chinese attributes. Even a set of metal golf clubs in an appropriate location can have as much of a positive impact as special copper coins and mandarin duck figurines.

I like people who have a raw piece of copper or brass and feel free to use it, thereby capturing the energy of the metal. 11-13 kilograms of this element is enough to improve the vibration of a room measuring 3 m2. Larger rooms therefore require more metal.

Quote from Dancing_in_the Light

Read in full In your quotation book or community!
The feng shui circle of power (Creation) will fulfill a wish. Envelopes of desires and the angle of power. It doesn't matter whether you believe in Feng Shui or not, it still works.
This is especially true for landscape features, apartment layout and furniture arrangement. Sometimes you don’t even need to specifically activate the Bagua grid in order for the Qi energy to actively move in space. It is enough to take into account the characteristics of the main elements - Fire, Water, Metal, Wood and Earth when designing a house design. These five elements have great power; they are able to direct a powerful flow of abundance from the Universe into your reality. That is why it is better to use their energy in Feng Shui to fulfill desires.

The effectiveness of the following ritual has long admired all masters, but when performing it, it is not enough to follow the instructions and honor each element. You will need to independently discover another, “sixth element” in yourself - faith. Feng Shui for fulfilling desires This method of realizing dreams is considered the most powerful in the entire practice of Feng Shui. So before you get started, please read the rules:

First, take your desires apart..

You must make sure that it passes the environmental test. To do this, think about whether you really need to materialize this desire, whether it is sincere and only yours, and whether it will harm others.

Secondly, do not perform the ritual out of idle curiosity or for any reason.

Don't worry, you won't get negative influence, but when you really need help, you won't get it. Masters claim that Fire, Water, Metal, Wood and Earth are living elements, and they do not like it when they are played with.

Thirdly, wait for the waxing moon.

Circle of Creation

1. A great Feng Shui tool for fulfilling desires!! Once you decide on a desire , refer to the Bagua grid and determine which sector it belongs to.

Wealth (Southeast): Associated with all your material possessions.

Fame (south): fame and reputation, a reflection of public opinion and your plans.

Love, marriage (southwest): connected with husband/wife, if not, it means the sector is not activated.

Family (east): your family, immediate circle, relatives, ancestors.

Health (center): unity and harmony of all things, and other areas not included in the general Ba Gua grid.

Children, creativity (West): spiritual or physical creativity; children; tendency to communicate.

Wisdom, knowledge (northeast): intelligence, experience, clarity of thought, self-improvement.

Career (north): work, professional activity, earnings.

Travel, helpers (northwest): associated with those who help you (teachers, mentors, guardian angel), and are also responsible for travel.

For example, you have long and passionately dreamed of opening your own business. In this case, you need the north, which is responsible for the career. It is there that the ritual will need to be performed.

2. Formulate your desire in the present tense and without the word “I want.”

You probably know that the word “I want” slows down the implementation of your plans and responds in the subconscious in a negative way. Those. if you say “I want to lose weight,” the unconscious calms down with satisfaction, since the dream has already been fulfilled. You already “want”, why work further? It’s the same here: since one of the conditions of the ritual is Faith , it means that you need to put your desire into a favorable form for an unspoken “agreement” with the subconscious.

According to the example, your request will sound something like this: “I open my own business with ease and pleasure.”

3.As you may have guessed, we will use the energy of the five elements, or rather the power of their interaction, which is reflected by the Circle of Creation. This is what needs to be created.

Take the symbols of the five elements, for example:

Wood is a piece of wood. Water – a glass of water. Metal is a metal object. Fire - a candle. Earth is a clay object, earth.

Arrange items according to the Circle of Creation

(Water-Wood-Fire-Earth-Metal):

4)Before you begin, be sure to light a candle to activate the energy of Fire.

5)Once you are done, sit comfortably next to your Circle of Creation and repeat out loud or mentally your prepared wish statement.

Don't be surprised if you suddenly feel a strong warmth coming from him or if an unfamiliar shiver appears in your body.

The power of the circle is very great.

6)After five to ten minutes, thank the forces and put out the candle. You can devote more time to the ritual.

7) Feng Shui masters do not recommend immediately removing the circle after the procedure described above. Leave it for at least a week in your sector, and do not forget to change the water daily.

8)Also – while you have it, repeat the ritual every day for at least five minutes.

Feng Shui: envelopes of desires and angle of power.


After using any technology, it takes a certain time to translate our desires into reality. Is it possible to speed up the process?

Incredibly, many Feng Shui masters answer this question in the affirmative. If you have already activated all the Bagua sectors in at least one room in your apartment, you can speed up the materialization of your dreams by doing the following:

Envelopes of wishes Today, almost all specialized Feng Shui shops sell bright multi-colored envelopes. Usually, they come in sets of eight pieces each. If you don't find anything like this, take colored paper, glue, scissors and make them yourself. Only during manufacturing adhere to favorable imperial dimensions in length and width.

In each envelope, put a small piece of paper on which you write your desire or affirmation (don’t forget: we formulate them in the present tense and without the word “I want”). There will be eight in total, according to the number of envelopes, and each intention is written for a specific area of ​​the Bagua grid.

After you are done with creating the envelopes and putting the sheets of wishes into them, place your creations according to the cardinal directions as written in the table:

SE (WEALTH)

Envelope color: purple , green (optional)

South (GLORY) Color: red YUZ (LOVE, MARRIAGE)

Color: pink , beige (optional)

East (FAMILY)

Color: green , brown (optional)

Center (HEALTH)

Color: yellow, orange

(we didn’t talk about this envelope, since it’s difficult to place something in the center, but if you have the opportunity, then make the ninth one)

West (CHILDREN, CREATIVITY)

Color: white, silver (optional)

SV (WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE)

Color: blue , sand (optional)

North (CAREER)

Color: black, blue, light blue (optional)

SZ (ASSISTANTS, TRAVEL)

Color: gray, yellow (optional)

Envelopes can be placed under the carpet, closet, bedside table. In general, in a way that is convenient for you. They are designed to additionally activate Qi energy, which will attract those same dreams into your reality.

Force Angle


The uniqueness of the angle of force is that to determine it you do not need a compass, compliance with the Bagua grid area, and it is in every room.

Stand at the entrance to the room near the doorway. How is the door located?

If it is slightly to the right, then your power angle is on the opposite side to the left. If the door is to the left , then to the right. (i-angle of force on the right )

What should be in this corner?

Any symbol of ONE wish. For example, if you dream of wealth, then place coins or images of money there. Do you want to attract love? Place paired items there or hang a small picture with two doves. Dreaming of traveling? One view of the desired country will be quite enough. It is believed that the angle of force can bring the fulfillment of your cherished desire much faster than you plan. Well, let's try...

Water

Represents water signs in any of their formations, from a small drop to a huge storm. This is a mystical element that reflects a person’s inner energy, his creative potential, peace, and tranquility. However, an excess of this symbol gives rise to indecision, stress, and fear.

For the male half, water gives a sense of the integrity of the world and diversity.

Earth

It is an integral part of all living things, from which everything appears and into which everything comes back. Earth is a manifestation of wisdom, knowledge, openness, but at the same time its reverse feature is tension, anxiety, and irritability.

Men with a predominance of this element personify calmness and balance. Such people will not act rashly without thinking through all the options. Leisurely and unhurried - these are the qualities that do not give them the opportunity to succumb to risky adventures. They love to act for their own pleasure and take everything from life. These are strong personalities, they cope well in emergency situations, and always get things done to the end. They will not leave you in trouble, they are true to their word.

For women, this element brings harmony, sensual sexuality and naturalness in behavior. This woman captivates with her individuality and sense of style. But at the same time, she is jealous, distrustful, and can limit the freedom of her chosen one.

Fire

Fire represents summer, gives light and warmth on the one hand, but has a destructive force, which is associated with explosive action, determines aggression.

If this element predominates in a man, then he is characterized by adventures and risks. Such a person is distinguished by leadership qualities, active action, and strong, contagious energy.

In relationships, he does not tolerate obligations or being pushed around. He views intimate relationships as a game, with constant further continuation. Movement is more important than the result, but when difficulties arise, he prefers avoidance.

The female gender is also characterized by these features, but with a certain twist that is inherent only to women. She is ruled by an active principle, boundless energy and impulsiveness. Such a woman will remain in memory for a long time as a charismatic, independent person for whom victories and success are important. In relationships, she is distinguished by fidelity, but only if she meets a person worthy of her.

Tree

Men of this element are characterized by increased emotionality and sensitivity. They believe in the power of love and seek it consciously. In relationships, they take control and are responsible for their development. They need to find allies in a commonality of views, both in love relationships and in social and friendly ones. They are natural humanists and liberals. If contradictions or difficulties arise, they abandon the work they have started and avoid the situation.

She is willful and imperturbable, ready to undertake new experiments. He prefers to act rather than wait for the right opportunity, while maintaining calm and self-control.

Colors in the interior and Ba Zhai

Color correction is used in the Ba Zhai system. Ba Zhai is the foundation of Feng Shui, its basis. This method is also compared to homeopathy - it eliminates the causes of illness in the body (meaning the room), unlike Flying Stars, which eliminate the problem, but not the cause of its occurrence.

In Ba Zhai there are favorable and unfavorable sectors, their strength and auspiciousness are determined in Feng Shui audit . Knowing such sectors, you can enhance the useful and weaken the unhealthy with the help of certain colors and interior items.

You don't have to repaint the walls or change the furniture to add some color. Add bright decorative items in the desired shade.

Metal

Represents power, strength, steadfastness and high conductivity. He is responsible for mental activity, firmness of thinking, justice and ideology. Its excess can lead to destructive actions and danger.

Men of this element believe in the persistence of their ideas and charge those around them with them. They extol their importance and are confident in their impeccability. These traits often lead to rigidity in achieving one's ambitious goals. Thanks to this, they often achieve their goals, sweeping away all obstacles along the way.
