Feng shui tips - Asian Mystery

It was about 12 years ago when I started getting interested in feng shui and Chinese good luck symbols. I had some health issue at that time and went to a hospital.  I had to wait for my turn for more than 2 hours, sitting at the hospital chairs with many other patients. Every time I went there it was always like that.  The chairs and sofas were not enough for all the patients, and most of them were standing in the waiting room for their turn to come. In the front door, there was a dragon head ship made of green color stone, ( I didn’t notice it was jade at that time ), an aquarium, and also on the reception counter there was a mythology creature figurine. I also saw a Happy Buddha statue ( also called laughing Buddha ), and also on the doctor’s desk, there was also another dragon figurine , and the female doctor was wearing a beautiful big jade stone ring on one of her fingers. One of the reasons the doctor was so popular is she used natural herbal medicine...

Most of the reasons why people care for feng shui is to improve their wealth, love life , health, success and have happy life.    Everyone wishes to have a happy life.    Unfortunately, many people I have seen don’t have all of these. If one is wealthy, they have the issue with their health, or family issue or not satisfied with their relationship. If one is healthy, and have good relationship, they have financial issue. Or one doesn’t have strong desire to have some of these, they are satisfied with their life as long as they can survive. However, there are also people who have all of these, wealth, health, love and success with less ups and downs in their lives.  What’s the difference ? It’s all about energy.  When we look at the source of it, Feng shui is about energy and how to well balance your space and mind. How energy around you flows in the space, how your personal energy influences your life wherever you are. Have you eve...

There is a mystery I’ve been wondering about and that is why does it seem that we always get good luck when we were keeping our mouth shut while in the process of doing something. I noticed that while I was doing job hunting, looking for a partner, or going traveling, etc.. And people around me also experienced the same things. Since I noticed that, I started keeping my mouth shut in the process of whatever I planned to do. Let me give you some examples, While I was looking for a job, I tried many companies, also registered in five temporary job centers. And I got some job offers from the temporary job centers. Soon after I got the offer, and before going to the interviews, I told about it to my mother, and my friends who were worried about me. And in that process, when the benefit of the offer was good, I told about it to everyone with excitement and big expectation as if I already got the job. However, it always failed and I could not get those jobs. And when I was n...

No matter how we fix our living places based on feng shui science, if you have a habit to interpret things negative way, or look for negative things, it all becomes your personal energy, and influences your future. Depending on the places where you live, the weather, the scenery, the air, the temperature, these are all influencing our every day feeling.

What is Boar’s character in Eastern astrology ? If you were born in the years 1947, 1959,1971, 1983 or 1995 then you’re a Boar ( Pig ). The boar may be the most generous and honorable Sign of the Chinese Zodiac. Boars are nice to a fault and possess impeccable manners and taste. They are perfectionists and can be perceived them as snobs, but this is a misconception. Boars are simply possessed of a truly luxurious nature, one that delights in finery and nice things (in surroundings, food, lovemaking and otherwise). This Sign believes in the best qualities of mankind and certainly doesn't consider itself to be superior. Boars also care a great deal about friends and family and work hard to keep everyone in their life happy. Helping others is a true pleasure for the Boar, who feels best when everyone else is smiling. A Boar with no one around to appreciate its giving nature is a sad thing indeed. Boars are so magnanimous they can appear almost saintly; this can lead ...

The Dog makes a wonderful, discreet and loyal friend and is an excellent listener. This Sign tends to root for the underdog and its keen sense of right and wrong makes it duty-bound to the core. The Dog's motto seems to be, Live right, look out for the little people and fight injustice whenever possible. Dogs can also be rather dogmatic, too. They don't go in for light social banter; instead, they go straight for home, discoursing on the topics that are most important to them. At these times the Dog's narrow-minded or stubborn side can become apparent; this Sign has trouble sta...

What is Rooster’s character in  Eastern astrology ?   If you were born in the years 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981 or 1993 then you’re a Rooster. The Rooster is described as a pioneer in spirit, devoted to work and the quest for knowledge. It is selfish and eccentric and is best matched with Snakes and Cows. Roosters are quick thinkers and are practical and resourceful , preferring to stick to what is tried and true rather than taking unnecessary risks. Roosters are keenly observers of their surroundings and those around them. It's hard to slip anything past a Rooster, since they seem to have eyes in the backs of their heads. This quality can lead others to think the Rooster is psychic, but that's not generally the case; instead, this Sign enjoys a keen attention to detail that makes it a whiz at anything requiring close analysis. Roosters make great lawyers, brain surgeons and accountants, to name a few of this Sign's possible occupations. Above all else, the...

Sheep needs plenty of love, support and open reassurance from their lovers. If a relationship is marked by conflict, the sheep will often pull away -- either physically or simply by retreating into the safe haven of its imagination. If the romance is going well, however, sheep won't hesitate to tell their partner what they need -- and they can be quite insistent about it. This si gn will definitely return the favor, however; the sheep has a luxurious side that delights in indulging a love...

Snakes are considered to be lucky with money and will generally have more than enough to live life to the fullest, regardless of how important it considers money to be; this may be due to the fact that Snakes tend to be rather tight with cash. They're not stingy; they're simply more mentally than physically active. Snakes tend to hang back a bit in order to analyze a situation before jumping into it. Their charming, seductive quality actually belies a rather retiring nature; this Sign is perfectly happy to spend the whole day curled up with a good book and, thus, can be mislabeled as being lazy. Snakes are somewhat insecure deep down and tend to...

Its compassionate nature leads it to be very protective of those it holds dear, but where romance is concerned, the Rabbit's sentimentality can lead it to idealize relationships. The sweet, sensitive Rabbit often ends up giving more of itself to a partner than is realistic or healthy.
