Welcome to the Coral edition and the second season of the United Colours of Design Magazine.
In this article we will explore how to use feng shui and the energy of coral to—harness and attract auspicious chi and good luck into your life.
The colour of coral is a combination of pink and yellow. Pink is associated with feelings of love and nurturing, and yellow is associated with wisdom and joy. Coral is sometimes referred to as peach, salmon, or apricot. In feng shui the color of red and pink are associated with the fire element. Pink is a yin (lighter) shade of red. The earth element is associated with the color of yellow and earth tones.
Feng shui theory equates the five elements (fire, earth, metal, water, and wood) with a form of chi (universal energy). For example, the fire element is associated with an upward-rising chi that is strong, expansive, and fanning out in many directions.
The earth element is associated with wise and grounding chi to the core of Mother Gaia. Earth chi is protective and associated with the center of our home and the center of the Bagua.
How is the energy of coral utilized in feng shui to create a balanced environment? Coral energy is recommended for enhancing and expanding a business, finding love, meeting new friends, and accepting and loving ourselves. Coral energy also reflects a sensitive and delicate energy to our environment like living coral growing on the reefs in the oceans. Coral is struggling to survive in today’s world.
In feng shui and Chinese culture, coral is the colour of choice for promoting longevity, prosperity, attracting partners, friendships and business associates. Peach blossom luck is a calculation and formula originating from the Four Pillars of Destiny, a branch of feng shui practice. The peach blossom luck is associated with the
twelve animal signs of the Chinese zodiac. The zodiac animal signs are grouped together and each animal sign has a dedicated peach blossom direction (north, south, east, or west) which, when activated, can harness and collect chi (universal lifeforce energy) for attracting love interests, friendships, business partnerships, and increasing the overall likability of an individual.
Feng shui, auspicious chi, five elements, colour, setting intentions, and implementing the law of attraction are the catalysts behind the mystery and magic of the peach blossom luck remedy.
PEACH BLOSSOM LUCK INSTRUCTIONS
You will need to know your Chinese zodiac (animal) sign before performing this ritual. To find your Chinese animal sign, see the chart below. If you were born between January 1st and February 5th, please subtract one year from your birth year. For example, if you were born on January 9, 1940, then please find “1939” in the chart below. The chart is based on the Chinese lunar calendar.
Chinese Zodiac Chart
Use flowers that are fresh and preferably just starting to bloom. You may also use blooming houseplants like orchids. Once the blooms are wilted the chi is no longer active and the flowers or flowering plants must be replaced. Change the water in your vase or bowl frequently to keep it clean and fresh. Use a vase or planter bowl with a large opening rather than a small one as the chi needs to be harnessed and collected here to activate the remedy in your specific peach blossom direction.
You can use the center of your house or the center of a room such as your living room to find your corresponding direction for the activation of attracting a partner or increasing your social life and likability status. You may use your cell phone’s compass app although I prefer an actual compass. You may also place the vase in your office on your desk in the stated direction of your peach blossom direction to activate partnerships for marketing and improving sales and business relationships.
*If you are in a relationship or married, be careful as this may bring in a third party. Use this remedy only for the highest good. I have seen it take up to three months for peach blossom luck to manifest. I also have had clients who have found life-long partnerships using feng shui’s peach blossom luck.
CHINESE ZODIAC ANIMAL SIGNS:
SNAKE, OX, ROOSTER
Stand in the center of your home with a compass and find your peach blossom direction.
For ox, rooster, and snake your peach blossom direction is south between 172.5—187.5 degrees.
Add water to a green or red-coloured vase with a large opening and place it in the southern area of your house, living room, bedroom, or office. Place three, four, or nine flowers (green, red, or purple) in the vase. Keep the vase clean and change the water frequently. I suggest using a wooden bowl or vase for the south direction.
PIG (Boar), SHEEP (Goat), RABBIT
Stand in the center of your home with a compass and find your peach blossom direction. For rabbit, sheep, and pig your peach blossom direction is north between 352.0—357.5 degrees. Choose a white, gold, blue, or black vase of water and place one, six, or seven flowers (blue or white) in the vase. Keep the vase clean and change the water frequently. I suggest using a glass or metal vase or bowl for the north direction.
RAT, DRAGON, MONKEY
Stand in the center of your home with a compass and find your peach blossom direction. For rat, dragon, and monkey your peach blossom direction is west between 262.0—277.5 degrees. Add a yellow or beige-coloured vase of water in the west area of your house, living room, bedroom, or office. Place two, five, or eight flowers (yellow or white) in the vase. Keep the vase clean and change the water frequently. I suggest using a ceramic or stoneware vase or bowl for the west direction.
HORSE, DOG, TIGER
Stand in the center of your home with a compass and find your peach blossom direction. For tiger, dog, and horse your peach blossom direction is east between 82.5—97.5 degrees.
Add a blue or black-coloured vase of water and place one, three, or four flowers (green or blue) in the vase. I suggest using a glass or wooden vase (bamboo) or bowl for the east direction.
Good luck to everyone that activates their peach blossom remedy.
