Feng Shui Front Door

The main door is called "The Mouth of Chi" in feng shui as this is how the house absorbs its much needed Chi, or energy nourishment. The intention of the front door allows money, health, a new job and relationships to come into the home. Energy and opportunity from the Universe comes to us through the front door. Paint the front door an attractive color that is different from the rest of the house. A Feng Shui entrance tip is to paint red to attract good fortune! Have adequate lighting in the front door area so opportunity can find a way in. Use live plants or flowers in the entrance to attract blooming possibilities. Remove unhealthy plants immediately.

Make sure the entrance is free of clutter. Have a bell with an appealing sound.   Spend some time standing at the front door area of the home and ask how does the home feel when it if first entered? That feeling is conveyed to others when they enter. If it feels welcoming and warm then the chi will flow!

Japanese Open Hearth Table

I went to the ICFF show in New York that showcases all kinds of innovative furniture design. I saw this great open hearth table made in Japan for sitting at and drinking a wonderful cup of tea while visiting with family and friends.  It is made of wood which makes it great for family area of the bagua; the element for this area is wood. The Woodcraft Moku products make use of the warmth, innate quality and natural shapes of Japanese solid wood, resulting in products that can be passed down from one generation to the next. The way the quality of wood is achieved  is through a unique and delicate hand-processing and hand finishing method that enhances the beauty of the wood grain. This open hearth table was crafted from a single tree that is over 300 years old.
