Golden Prosperity & Animal Magnetism
On my 61st birthday in January I decided to give myself a boost of energies in my bedroom. I made a quick trip to the Dollar General store just to see how little I could spend for my Power Feng Shui project and what interesting things I might achieve.
There I found a set of golden (Prosperity & Good Health) sheets and also a set of leopard skin satin sheets along with a leopard skin set of shams and a comforter. They were so inexpensive I bought all of them. The leopard skin fabric brings an energy of being more aggressive, which is exactly what I want for my career. As I look at my bed each day I will be receiving the energies the leopard skin radiates into the room. Perfect!
I also bought a pot of yellow (Prosperity & Health) tulips in a terra cotta (Earth Element for being more grounded) for new growth.
When I arrived home I dressed the bed in the golden sheets, using the flat leopard skin sheet atop the bed, then placing the comforter on top of it all for a finished faux Neimans/Horchow look. I used the leopard skin shams to pin up on top of the draperies so it looked like I had bought them to match the look as well.
The fitted leopard skin sheet I used to cover an end table, tucking the elastic band underneath so it would not be noticed. I replaced all of my icons and lamp on top of it. It made my bedroom look even more exotic. At 61 having led a mostly conservative life I figured I could use a little animal magnetism in my life. One never knows how much time is left and I want to enjoy every single day of it.
Buddha sits on my other bedside table but just for the photo I placed him in the bed with the tulips. In contemporary and traditional Feng Shui, Buddhas are used as a respectful icon in homes to bless spirituality, raising the vibration of the deity, and showing honor from those that dwell there. It is a way to bring blessing to that home from the Heavens.
Even if you are not Buddhist, offering a blessing of Buddha, no matter how small, sends a message out to the Universe that you are thankful for the Feng Shui customs you are using to create more Prosperity, Abundance, Empowerment and Good Health, plus all of the other blessings that come with Feng Shui.
As soon as I had dressed my bed and table, hung the shams, and rearranged the Buddha and the tulips three wonderful Feng Shui consultations showed up for me within a week. Talk about aggressive….I loved it.
Certainly my clients and I have been inspired by the Home and Garden channel to get busy and reinvent our lives with color, fabric and icons for fresh, fun, and fascinating new looks for our sacred space. HGTV is huge on saving money and even the Dollar General can provide looks you have never thought possible before.
A trip through Neiman Marcus revealed a pricey look I loved but I thought could be reproduced on a budget. The shopping trip to the Dollar General Store made it fun and affordable. Besides having a fun and fulfilling adventure on your birthday it is always great and I got a new Power Feng Shui look for not just myself, but my clients to consider as well. All of us can benefit.
Get out and look around and see what appeals to you. Don’t wait for your birthday. Do it now. Take a friend and having a grand adventure. Life after all is a grand adventure, if only you make it so.
Fun and Feng Shui. It cannot get any better for any of us.
Let me know at my email Iconalex@aol.com what results you see when you step out of your comfort zone and use a little Power Feng Shui to change and rearrange your life. I would love to hear about it.
Make your Prosperity Drawing Power Feng Shui fun!
May your blessings be auspicious (lucky) always.
