The ‘official Bagua’ is an octagon shape. Its use was similar to a compass in centuries past, containing information about earth, man and the heavens. This is very auspicious tool that was carried from town to town offering guidance and protection.
For outside protection, use this particular wooden Bagua with a convex mirror. When hung from a doorway or window, it will deflect any negative energy with the mirror and provide balance within the bagua wheel.

Rethinking the Bucket List
Are we happy yet? We have all been working for many years, saving our money, trying to plan for the future… and the unknown. The planning is one thing and life’s surprises are another! I’ve noticed that many people begin talking about their ‘bucket lists’ whenever a ‘big’ birthday rolls around. So, what is wrong with that? Nothing, but perhaps it is the little nudge you need to actually start the list.
Feng shui can help…
The Crystal Speaks!
When purchasing crystals as a ‘cure’, be sure to buy a quality product!
When using a crystal for a cure, it applies energy-enhancing qualities. It can either gather or disperse chi-energy. So, how does that work?
Chi-energy is able to move very quickly through a long hallway. If the intention is to ‘slow down’ the aggressive chi, a crystal can be placed mid-way through the hall. The multi-facets on the crystal will absorb and then disperse…
The Hummingbirds have been most active lately! They are feeding constantly right now to get ready for their long migration. Because of their small size and high degree of activity, they lose body heat rather quickly, and need to digest their food quickly. They will eat for several days straight, storing up food and energy in their tiny bodies ready to make the long journey. I’ve seen them out almost every morning this week!
Did you know there are over…

What is Your Management Style?
Can you find a balance between being a hard-nosed, results-oriented boss and a hovering, nagging mother hen?
Of course you can! Each team manager may have the same goals, but they can take a different route to get there!
We are all unique. When we first become a manager, we try to mirror our most successful example, good or bad. When we’ve tripped up a few times, we recover, and…
BLUE TARP BLUES
How can a blue tarp turn a reasonable adult into a basket case?
Well, you may find this hard to believe. I’ve been held hostage by a blue tarp for several years in a row! I’m finally ready to talk about it!
We moved across the country in 2006 for a two year assignment with my husband’s work as an engineer. We had flown out for a recon, to look for rental housing solutions.
The city was…
The FS Garden and Neighborhood Tour
I usually lead a talk or a seminar in the safe confines of a sheltered building, but this time, the spring energy was calling me outside!
A small group of us met in a Kitsilano neighbourhood (west end of Vancouver) for a feng shui tour of a few blocks. Feng shui in a home starts before one gets in the front door. The goal was to find balance and harmony in the gardens and…
The ‘Royal WE’
It is easy to fall into a routine when we are comfortable in a relationship. I think that is part of the ‘beauty’ of a long term relationship. We already know what to expect, how the chores are divided up, who is in charge of the garbage and who takes care of the laundry. But, after a while, resentment can set in. Someone else can be perceived to have a ‘better deal’ or your work schedule no…
ENERGY FIELDS in Humans and Pets
Energy fields in humans and pets can be detected using the same dowsing tools for geopathic stress.
We all have an energetic field around us. Think of the chi-energy we’ve talked about earlier. It is invisible to the naked eye, but it has enough power to send out our moods and temperaments to the general public. The dowsing rod can assess your energy level by counting each time the arm swings a full circle.…
Victorian Balloon Back Chairs: Can they turn into Clutter?
Built in the 1860’s these chairs support an amazing history of the pre-industrial era. Retracing their history; the tree was grown in England, harvested at its prime and destined for its purpose of being admired and ‘sat-upon’ by the elite.
We believe this set of six chairs served its purpose in England for many decades before immigrating to North America. When Stephen found the set in the early 90’s, several…
Paul and I absolutely LOVED meeting you in person and having the time you so generously gave us and our home! It is such a joy and celebration to connect with a kindred soul, especially when this comes with the great blessing and opportunity to learn and grow from the connection.
Our session on Saturday was the catalyst we needed to break out of our (my!) inertia and get the energy flowing to transform our space and lifestyle. Your presence andguidance are extremely uplifting and… Read more
