Creating That Loving Feeling
A
nother approach might be to look at your existing home to see how you can change its energy, to attract more love into your life. According to the ancient art of Feng Shui, if you want love in your life, you must create space for it in your home. For example, if you are looking for a partner, a welcoming and uncluttered front door invites in good energy and good relationships, but, if it is piled up with shoes, you block and push away new people who will likely sense the ‘running away’ energy represented in the shoes. Clearing wardrobes, freeing up empty hangers, making space on the coat rack, and leaving room at the table, are all said to create new space and intention for new love. Even hanging pictures and paintings that represent love and organising objects into pairs can raise and attract love energy into your home and life.
Heart Filled Home
W
ith love definitely in the air this month, I’ve been looking at what makes a love-filled home. After all, a house is just a building, but a home conjures up something so much more personal. So, what does it take to go from a house to a heart-filled home? Well, one starting point might be the building itself with many people ‘sensing’ that houses have ‘souls’. Indeed, we’ve probably all been in a house that feels ‘soulless’ and it feels pretty uncomfortable. Somehow though, our houses do seem to absorb our energy. The walls soak up our spirit, and, for good or bad, we leave an impression on the spaces we inhabit. Choosing a home with the ‘right feel’ from the start is an important first step in creating a home that not only suits us, but also reflects something personal about us.
However, for lots of us, decisions made about our homes and interiors are based on whether they work practically, aesthetically, are within budget, or are limited to what’s available. The whims of fashion can sway us and we end up with a mish-mash of disparate objects that have no plan or meaning.
