11 Feng Shui Tips To Attract Love

Feng Shui is the Eastern practice of working with chi or the cosmic life force energy along with your desired intention to create a specific environment in your home and or work environment. One of the most popular reasons people use Feng Shui is to either bring in love or spice up their romantic relationships. 


11 Feng Shui Tips To Attract Love 

1. Burn pink, red and or white candles along with your intention. It is best to work with 2 candles at a time because we are working with relationships and traditionally a relationship is between 2 people. 
2. Place rose quartz in your bedroom and or relationship corner. The relationship corner of your home/space is in the far right hand corner of the dwelling. Rose quartz is pure love and vibrates at a high frequency. It is best to work with 2 rose quartzes instead of 1 because we are working with pairs ~ you and a partner.
3. Create room for your partner in your bedroom and make sure there is enough closet space for them to make themselves cozy in the same home.
4. If at all possible, decorate your bedroom and relationship corner with pairs of objects. An example of this would be lamps, photos, end tables etc. 
5. Make sure the photos in your bedroom are a representation of your vision of what a loving and balanced romantic relationship would look for you. Move the family photos that have children and parents into another part of your home. This one makes sense doesn't it? We wouldn't want them in this private area of our space would we? 
6. De-clutter both the bedroom and relationship corner in your home so that the chi flows freely and effectively. Ideally we would not want to have clutter in any area of our home however, the bedroom tends to collect clutter with clothes etc. 
7. Decorate your bedroom with inviting and warm colors with accents of reds, whites, greens and pinks and be sure to keep the bedding clean and crisp.
8. Get rid of extra pillows and or stuffed animals on the bed. These objects are taking up space physically and energetically in your bed. Make room for your companion!
9. Aromatherapy is a very effective approach to creating the ambiance of your choice. To bring romance and balance into your love life use oils such as; ylang ylang, jasmine, clary sage, geranium, rose, and cardamom. To keep your room smelling fantastic I suggest either using an oil diffuser or spraying a mist that has been blended for love. 
10. Limit amount of mirrors that you have in your bedroom and if at all possible, get rid of all mirrors. Mirrors deflect energy and will cancel out all of the Feng Shui cures you have been implementing into your bedroom.
11. Take all work and fitness activities out of the bedroom and into another place in your home. These activities are energetically a romance blocker. The goal is to have your bedroom feel calm and relaxing, not busy. 

All of these Feng Shui tips will help you to create the energetic foundation that is welcoming a healthy, harmonic, and loving relationship into your life. Don't forget to do your part by tending to what is going on within you so that you are emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually ready for your ideal relationship. It is important that we are the partner that we desire for ourselves. 

Much Luck and Love,

What Is Your Strongest Psychic Gift? Find Out By Selecting One Of These Crystals

Do you know which psychic ability of the 4 main psychic senses is your strongest? Learn more about your own natural psychic abilities by selecting the crystal that calls to you. Each crystal helps enhance the corresponding "clair" when the user carries or wears it.

Take a moment to center yourself and then ask your Higher Self which of the following crystals will help enhance your intuitive abilities. ​

1. Clairvoyance/Lapis Lazuli - People that are clairvoyant are able to see psychic energy whether it be through pictures, movies, and or colors. Place your crystal on your 3rd eye to enhance your gift of clairvoyance.

2. Clairaudience/Labradorite - Clairaudience is the ability to hear psychically. You may hear messages, songs and all sorts of different sounds. If at all possible, wear selenite earrings or place a piece of selenite on the throat area while lying down to help fine tune your clairaudient abilities.

3. Claircognizance/Amethyst - With this ability you simply "know" things without trying to focus on the situation at hand. Information flows through the Higher Self and heart chakra effortlessly. Placing an amethyst crystal on your heart chakra will help bring out your claircognizant abilities.

4. Clairsentience/Rose Quartz - If you possess this ability, you are able to feel the energy of people and places that you interact with. Many empaths possess this psychic gift. Place a rose quartz on your solar plexus/stomach area to build your clairsentience abilities. This activity will help prevent you from absorbing the energetic influences that you are feeling.

Blessings and Light,

These 7 Crystals Are All You Really Need In Your Collection

I, like many other crystal junkies, am the proud owner of hundreds of different varieties of

crystals. They are all special to me and yes, I do use them all - for healing, protection, abundance, enhancing my intuition or simply for relaxing and meditating. After working with crystals for over 30 years, I have found that there are 7 basic crystals that pretty much cover all of your needs. These 7 crystals are also easy to attain and are very affordable which make them even more appealing to the metaphysically curious person. 

The 7 Basic Crystals

1. Clear Quartz - This crystal does it all! It enhances, restores, and regulates energy. It helps activate your psychic abilities, amplifies the energy of other crystals, stimulates the immune system, and aligns the chakras. I use clear quartz to energize my other crystals and to give my own energy a boost when I feel a little tired. I also keep a clear quartz in my car to improve my gas mileage.

2. Amethyst - Another crystal that has many useful properties. I use amethyst to help me relax, sleep, meditate, open my crown chakra, overcome unhealthy habits such as; eating too much sugary foods or drinking too much caffeine. Amethyst is great for breaking unhealthy addictions, brings in peace and balance, not only is it a psychic protection stone, but it also protects the user from thieves and it protects travelers.

3. Rose Quartz - Rose quartz is often used for healing emotional trauma and wounding. it has a gentle and loving energy that helps the user connect with unconditional love for self as well as others. Rose quartz has been used in ancient times for physical beautification working on the inner and outer aspects of feeling beautiful. Putting rose quartz by your bedside provides a peaceful and restful sleeping environment. A large piece in your workspace keeps away gossip.

4. Selenite - Selenite connects you with the angelic realm while clearing and cleansing your mind, body and spirit. Selenite brings in mental clarity and helps with decision making. I use selenite in my healing sessions to remove energy blocks in the physical and etheric bodies. I often use a selenite blade to comb the auric field. It clears and seals the aura. Selenite connects you with the energy of the moon. I love using selenite during the full and new moon to help enhance my intention with the moon's energy.

5. Black Tourmaline - I have  black tourmaline strategically placed in the four corners of my home and businesses and by the front door to absorb any stress of negativity from entering into these places. I also use black tourmaline to keep me grounded in my meditation so that I remember my meditation experiences. It guards against the influences of overly emotional and toxic people so that you do not take on their energy empathically. Black tourmaline is a wonderful stone for those who feel and take on other people's energy. It creates a healthy energetic boundary for the user with the outside world.

6. Fluorite - You will always find a piece of fluorite by my computer and printer to help it run smoothly. There is a lot of psychic energy around my computer due to the nature of my business. Fluorite is excellent for shielding the aura from outside psychic manipulation. It absorbs disturbances in your environment so quickly that you do need to clear it often with sage or a crystal cleanse. This crystal works with the upper chakras making it an excellent stone of enhancing psychic abilities.

7. Citrine - Citrine is the most popular abundance crystal that people use to bring in financial stability. I always have a citrine stone in my cash register and in the money corn in my home, the back left corner to keep the abundance flowing. Citrine balances the solar plexus chakra and energizes the will of the user. It is excellent in solving family or group problems bringing in resolution and healing to the group. Citrine is beneficial in sparking creativity of artists, writers and musicians.

As I write this article, many other crystals come to mind such as hematite, moonstone and tiger's eye, but for those who are beginners or if you are purchasing crystals for someone else, these 7 will cover the basic needs of the user.

Be sure to cleanse them often with sage, sea salt, or placing them on a slab of selenite or a cluster of amethyst or clear quartz. Cleansing your crystals will help you receive the benefits that come from working with them.

There is so much information out there to help you learn more about crystals. Some resources are - the internet, books and visiting your favorite crystal shop and learning from the people that work there. Learning how to use crystals can be fun, healing and empowering. 

If you haven't already worked with crystals, I invite you to do so beginning with the 7 I have suggested with an open mind and heart and then decide for yourself if your life has improved for the better.

Blessings and Light,
Laurie
