Have you lost a big amount of money today? Was your old vase or mirror broken in your apartment? If so, you might not have been practicing Feng Shui. This is the art of arranging things around a house or office or living space in a way that balances the life energies so occupants can enjoy good health and fortune.
The words Feng Shui actually have individual meanings when taken separately. The word Feng means wind while the word Shui means water. In the history of China, the elements water and wind are associated with good health and prosperity. This is why the Chinese believe good Feng Shui brings in good health and fortune while bad Feng Shui does the opposite.

We can can easily understand how Feng Shui can change our lives by just looking at its real meaning. Here are a few tips that you can use so that you can attract good energies in your living space or perhaps in your work station:
The compass and the Ba-Gua are the things used in analyzing. You may have seen an octagonal grid that contains a symbol li Ching. This is actually called Ba-Gua which is an ancient tool of the Chinese. Today however, these is merely used as a home decor. Knowing your home's Ba-Gua lets you understand the different connections between certain Feng Shui points and their effect on your life.
Another great tool used is the mirror. Mirrors are regarded by Chinese as the aspirin of Feng Shui. Properly placing your mirrors in your home shifts the flow of energy and makes it more positive. For example, it is not advisable to put a mirror behind a bed.
Yet another tool is a clock. Contrary to the myth claiming clocks are bad Feng Shui, they are actually good for attracting positive energy.
Nevertheless, you should never put a clock inside your bedroom because it is supposed to be a place where you should relax and the only clock you should be concerned about is your own body clock. One may use a small alarm clock in this room, though, for practical reasons.
Natural crystals are also very popular because of their very characteristics- solid, bright, transparent and naturally inclined to draw energy from the earth. There are many types of natural crystals, including quartz, celestite and obsidian and each brings a different type of good luck or fortune.
Pairing crystals with ceramic rooster is also a great idea since both can bring good vibes in your house and attract wealth for your home and your business.
