The art of Feng Shui

By on January 31, 2010

The 20th century brought about the explosion of material richness, convenience, and comfort. Excessive materialism created a need for spirituality and culture. In the new millennium, people crave for spiritual “medicine”. This has already manifested itself in the current “New Age” movement, which includes Feng-Shui (or fu-sui in Japanese).  

Lucie Mori was born into a family of psychics. From the age of ten, she started learning oriental healing methods. In addition to learning tarots, she learned the art of fortune-telling and feng-shui with her mother and grandmother, later on adapting Chinese, Japanese, and Indian feng-shui techniques. This method includes “reading” people in terms of their body and mind constitutions, a five-element background, karmic influences, life skills, analyzing these, then applying this to their current problems or dilemma – whether about life purpose, relationships, health, or career.  

Lucie prescribes feng-shui art remedies like energy-focused and feng-shui symbolic paintings (like phoenix, dragons, or tortoises), gemstones, home décor objects, symbol-laden jewelries for the aforementioned dilemmas, depending on the analyses. She has a number of ready-made items and accepts custom-made requests. Lucie’s artwork and accessories are displayed at the Asian Collection Contemporary Art Gallery, and are also available for purchase.  

For example, the living room is where the family meets, eats, and communicates. The best color for this room would be earth colors (natural brown, green, copper bronze, and yellow tones) which represent grounding, stability, and security.  

Also ideal for the living room are large vases (for abundance of all positive aspects) and fruits (genuine or plastic) – namely lemons, oranges, persimmons. Plants are great for the living room, symbolizing growth and fruition. Seashells are also good to place in the south-western corner of the room to fortify relationships. Display photos or paintings that personally invoke positive feelings, such as those of smiling children, happy family moments, and old couples holding hands.  

In the bedroom, the choice of basic colors from pink to strong, fiery red colors should be made according to the couples’ current situation and individual constitution. For example, old couples need more red to increase fire in their relationships, while young couples need a lesser-toned pink to focus more on romance.  

It is no secret that good thoughts and energy attracts good things and people. Feng-shui is the art of changing the environment to create positive emotions, thoughts and energy. By changing the environment, the person absorbs the energy and stimulates him to change inside. 

Applying the right paintings and home decors, and wearing the right jewelries will eventually trigger an internal change that results, in time, to positive energy that changes your life.
