Feng Shui Love Tips

Love is a many-splendored thing, as the song goes, but it can also be elusive and complicated. Now I’m not about to go on an anti-Valentine’s rant here, really. I love the various historical accounts of St. Valentine and I particularly like the idea of the holiday being traced back to Roman fertility festivals. Although admittedly I’m not so much seduced by the big, frilly Hallmark-card version of the day. (It’s the green gestures that make me swoon–like e-cards or homemade ones, a sexy organic cocktail or a vegan chocolate dessert.) But I digress.

What I like about the holiday is that it is a celebration of love–that elusive, complicated, many-splendored thing. What better time to try out these feng shui tips to attract and nurture love in your life? These suggestions come courtesy of feng shui expert Angi Ma Wong from her book Feng Shui Do’s and Taboos (Storey, 2000).

• Place geodes in the SW to enhance love, romance, and relationships.
• Create a romance corner in the SW area of your bedroom. Include pictures or figures of happy couples and surround them with hearts, flowers, doves, and lovebirds.
• Add a gold, red, or pink crystal heart to your romance corner.
• Collect heart-shaped containers made of terracotta, china, or porcelain, or take stones from the beach that are shaped like hearts. Place them in groups of two in your romance corner.
• Keep a representation of a bat in a SW area to encourage marital contentment. In China, bats symbolize happiness, good fortune, long life, and protection.
• Place heart-shaped candles and accessories crafted in earth materials, such as stone, tile, terracotta, and clay, in the SW to activate love, romance, relationships, and marriage. Use yellow, pink, red, and white objects.
• Hang a crystal chandelier in the SW area of your home, especially if this area contains your living room, to attract love.

When thinking about existing relationships or the potential of a relationship, consider having a solid headboard that is firmly attached to the bed. This has to do with protection and stability within a relationship. It also impacts the possibility of a relationship.

I think I would be happy with Annie's lonely cowboy. I always did fancy the strong sensitive type and he sounds a 100 times more interesting then the men I usually meet. ;o)

You get back what you put into life. This stuff doese work, I am married to the proof! On top of the Feng Shui helped me sell my house in two days during this recession and I bought a fabulous house within our budget. All due to Feng Shui.
You'll see it when you believe it - not the other way around. If you can't be bothered to make the effort, then neither can the Universe. It's Law of Attraction. You get a vibrational match what whatever energy you are emitting.
Blessings and good luck y'all!

This is hillarious, i'm getting out the ribbon and pairs of hearts as we speak. Plus I am gonna throw out that picture of the lonely cowboy, he's bringing me down. ;p

Gee whiz- why would a man go to all that trouble when a simple special dinner at a quiet restaurant chosen by in my case my wife, a dozen long stemmed roses and to end the evening making passionate love ACCORDING TO THE WISHES AND TURN ONs of in this case my wife of 40 years. When will men become REAL MEN and ask their wives how to make the love experience more passionate and more satisfying and fulfilling to in this case their wives and themselves. Most men are not very good lovers and don't ask their spouses how they wish to be loved. Simple directions from one person to the other can make all the difference in the world. Sorry but I am an incurable romantic and I began this on our wedding night.

Sounds pretty; consider and ponder your intentions as you place your love crystals!

Okay, I have hearts and girly romantic decor all over the house but I draw the line at bats. Good thing I have Cupid in my corner. LOL
