Water has it’s own Healing Qualities
Water is a formless substance that contains endless possibilities. It is the residence of emotions, intuition and inspiration, and, it can be a symbol for birth, death and creativity. Wow!
Yin and yang extremes are easy to explain when referring to water.
Water in an aggressive form (yang), can cause a lot of damage. It can wash out dams and piers, swamp boats, erode the coastline, and has taken many to their deaths.…
The Messenger
Flowers have always been great sources of energy and inspiration. We use them to express love, sympathy, friendship and more. Flowers can raise the energy on any occasion. The fragrances, the herbal qualities, the colour and imagery serve as powerful sources of energy. All plants and trees that flower are recognized as ‘enhancements’, as they are symbolic of hidden wisdom and joys that can be brought into the individual’s life.

Q: I was given my favourite grandmother’s old oval mirror. It has some fancy carvings along the edge of the glass and some of the silver has been scraped on the back. Can I use this mirror for feng shui cures?
A: I love the fact that you have a mirror from your grandmother! Anytime you accept a used item from anyone, be sure that YOU LOVE THE ITEM, and second, that the item comes from a person you respect…
Survival During Construction
I’ve always counselled my clients to find a ‘Safe Spot’ for themselves when tackling a renovation in their home. Think of it as a ‘nest’, just for you; a space that is not part of the reno where you can breathe, think and rest.
Well, the latest home reno for us was the roof! So, where does one go to ‘hide’ and seek solitude while this is going on? There is pounding on the roof in every…
The Dark Side
Some people have an impression of dark or black as being mysterious, eerie or scary. Not so, according to Feng Shui.
The darkness actually represents yin energy: a slower pace. It can help calm the mind, and allow you to rest when needed. Dark coloured things can be ‘grounding’ and can suggest calmness in order for you to pay attention and make sound decisions. Wearing dark coloured clothing can reinforce a sober mood when dealing with finances,…
Q: Kathryn, I want to know more about the outside of the house. My lot is irregularly shaped and so is my house. Is there a cure out there to line things up and secure my wealth area?
A: There is nothing wrong with an irregular shaped lot, as long as it doesn’t funnel energy off the property or hold bad energy where you need strength. Feng shui talks about a command position that everyone needs in order to be…

Q: Which pictures or prints are appropriate to decorate a home office? I have a very small alcove for my desk, computer and hobbies. I‘m trying to find something that is colourful and simple, yet everything seems to be overpowering!
A: We are all challenged for space and it sounds like you might already have too much going on in your home office. Make sure your space is clutter-free before adding pictures. Your décor choices will differ depending on whether…

Lucky Bamboo
The Bamboo is often referred to as ‘lucky’ in Chinese Cultures. It is fast growing, hearty and has a mulitple of uses. When gathered in groups, the number of stalks can have different meanings and bring strength to different situations.
One of my favorites is the ‘group of three’, also discussed in the latest newsletter. Three is for the trinity, the family and cooperation. The arrangement here has three bamboo stalks. If you are familiar with the…
