Living the Feng Shui Way

More Feng Shui Myths Exposed
By: Kartar Diamond

If you have heard that you should never put a fountain or an aquarium in the kitchen, this is incorrect. This misinterpretation of the elements is that the presence of water will extinguish the fire that a kitchen symbolically represents and somehow this will destroy your prosperity.

Sometimes the kitchen ends of being a good location of the house for water and it can benefit the whole house. Remember, any advice which says "always do this" or "never do that" is going to be general advice at best, and sometimes totally irrelevant to your unique space.

Another Myth:

"When your fish die in your aquarium, it means that they absorbed something negative that would have happened to you." I doubt this! I think it means that you didn’t take care of them properly.

And Another Myth:

"Don’t keep books in your bedroom; they are too stimulating." This is another pseudo-FENG SHUI nonsense theory.

And Yet Another Myth:

"Don’t place your bed’s headboard against a wall shared with a bathroom." This is another New-Age pseudo-FENG SHUI recommendation. Don’t take seriously.

Myth #345:

"Don’t have a skylight in your office as it provides a way for wealth to leak out of the room." Not true. Why would a skylight leak wealth any more than a window? Chi actually glides along all surfaces: floors, ceilings, and walls. Skylights can be great additions to spaces that would otherwise be too dark (yin). That in and of itself is counter-productive to creativity and prosperity.

The preceding FENG SHUI myths came directly from a little book which was written by a well-known FENG SHUI practitioner in Southern California. It is a veritable gold mine of trash FENG SHUI and I am so grateful to the author for putting so much bad advice all in one organized book from A-Z. As I write my own book, which will expose all the fake FENG SHUI being perpetuated, I don’t have to rack my brain to remember all the myths I have heard over the last ten years. This little book has helped me enormously in my research! Stay tuned in future newsletters for MORE MYTHS EXPOSED
