Hi I want to place a mirror in the entry way (perpendicular to door/on the wall). The reflection is my kitchen cabinet and some part of my fridge. Is this ok?
How do the colours and compass directions work in the Southern Hemisphere? Is it the same as the Northern Hemisphere or are they all reversed (e.g. red= south becoming red= north in the Southern Hemisphere)?
My front door on the west side is not used. Neither is my side door on the north side of the house on the west side of the porch... The only door we use is the back door by the garage, on the east side of the porch.
It's fine if you don't use your west door this year (2024), but north door has good energy this year. in general, if you never use your doors energy stagnates. It's good to open them once in a while, clean them and the area around them and let the fresh energy in.
This video is so helpful! Moving to new apt. I am figuring out if I should put master bedroom in SE room or NE room but after this.. now I'm leaning towards NE room. Although NE is less private and the bed would have to be parallel to door. What should I prioritize - bed placement or not being in the illness area lol 😂?
I would prioritize a better form and your home's natal Flying Star chart and only then apply a yearly Flying Star. Especially now since there are only 4 months left in this year. The next year the annual stars will be different. A quieter room where you can place your bed in a command position probably your best option. If you can also do your home's natal Flying Star chart based on a building's facing direction and the year it was built or substantially remodeled, it will give you more clues.
My front door faces east. What color should I use for prosperity, joy, and health? The color that would make me happy to come home to would be bright yellow
Hmmm, it looks like you have to choose between what you like and what Feng Shui suggests. That's a tough choice. I would probably choose the color that would make you happy and goes well with the exterior. You can support prosperity and health aspects (Wood and Water Elements) by adding green plants around your front door and dark blue door mat.
This episode really resonates with me. About 14 years ago my husband and I purchased the most stunning timber bed that incorporated built-in floating side tables - made from extremely beautiful Rimu timber. The headboard and bed frame are sleek and incredibly well made. We were told at the time of purchase that Rimu timber is from New Zealand and considered to be quite rare to source. Our bed was made in NZ from recycled Rimu timber which we later found out was created from the original ceiling beams in an old hospital. I can now join the dots back to delivery of this bed and a noticeable decline in our health, in particular my health. My husband broke his leg, and I took time out to help his recovery, then never returned to my job. He made a full recovery, but I have suffered so many health setbacks ever since, such as developing Type II Diabetes, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, IBS - and more recently, chronic arthritis through the lower back, hips and knees. Having always enjoyed an active life prior to the onset of these conditions, to now be living with so much pain on a daily basis, is so debilitating! I’m now of the opinion that it’s our bed’s history that is the root cause of my ongoing decline in health. I am extremely grateful to you for raising the topic of furniture and its connection to the past. While our bed is not antique by any means, the timber’s origin has a very dark history. I think it’s time to go bed shopping! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful to see your home again : ) Happy to hear you have found your way to a warmer area. All the best to finding the perfect new house for you and A <3 Sending Love
You need to use southern hemisphere Bagua where south relates to career, northeast to wealth, northwest to relatioships, etc . It's not quite the opposite; east and west are the same energy. I should probably do a video on it :)
Thank you Natalia, for sharing this wonderful tour of your lovely home. But of course, every room holds your excellent Feng shui practices. I wish you and your husband much happiness in your new home. I believe you are moving closer to the sea...always a wonderful thing! I love the wonders of the sea... it is so restorative!!! Again, thank you!
Thank you, Diana, for your heartfelt wishes! Yes, I can feel how ocean washes away stress and fatigue restoring peace, joy and balance. Sending good wishes your way ❤
😓I rent and am desperate to find a better place to live.. preferably to buy.. 😓The front door is white and ugly, and facing east. I like red doors, but it really depends on the color and style of house what color I would choose for a home. Black, dark blue, red or dark green are my favourites
Thank you, Diana! The home was sold very quickly. It was on the marker five days. The closing was at the beginning of September. Lots of love to you and all the best wishes!
@@nataliakaylin Of course it did. It's gorgeous and well Feng Shei'd ..... I wish you all the happiness in the world and hope to find you on this channel soon.
Natalia. Your lovely home exudes serenity and happiness…but of course…as you are such an amazing feng shui master. I love your channel and thank you so very much for sharing such helpful ideas. I also have your book which is equally inspiring. I believe you are relocating closer to the sea which I know you and your husband will enjoy! Best wishes!
@@dianaw248 Your beautiful and thoughtful words, Diana, touched deeply into my soul. We keep finding light in our hearts and sharing it with each other ❤
@@nataliakaylin good morning Natalia…I am not dianarichards2817 but I did receive your reply.. I am dianaw248. Isn’t RU-vid strange at times! I receive your emails as well. I also bought your book some time ago and it is wonderful. In your email you said that you will be househunting in Virginia Beach. Oh, being near the sea is so wonderful and restorative. We live in Pennsylvania but stay on the Eastern Shore of Virginia ( at Chincoteague Island) very often. My husband spent part of his childhood there. We hear that Virginia Beach is a good place..there is a Botanical Garden in Norfolk so you may enjoy that. Thank you again for your wonderful feng shui inspiration!
What a stunning house! I am sure anyone would be glad to be the next owner :D Good luck on your new house-hunting adventures, being closer to family or be it a warmer climate, the change is really is worth it <3
Congratulations on selling your gorgeous home! I can see you have taken very good care of it and it will be a blessing to the next family who bought it. Loved the video!
@@nataliakaylin thanks, yes My door is exactly at the North when I look at it from inside de Home, so I am going to paint it black following your video about door color
@@adrianabermudez6426 Cobalt, royal or navy blue (dark blue) might be a better choice than black. Blue is rich and beautiful and goes well with many neutral exterior colors.
So...since I replaced my garage door with a mahogany colored door which goes well with the roof, my front door look awful. The siding is medium light gray. The door us set in 10 feet. I have painted the door to look like drift wood. Nit everyone's taste. It was drab looking. So put royal blue rug with a runner leading to the door. There are chairs with cozy afghans and a blue chest with a blue and white lamp which is on all the time. Plus a basket with orange pillows. And a couple plants. It turned out to be fun and inviting. Would that work for an east facing door?
Besides a waterfall, which type of fountain is good? Right now i have a foamy spay that goes up. The pond is in SE and is in the back right corner of the house.
I described some of what I think good fountains for energy activation in this video. The pond in the SE sounds great. The spray that goes up sounds about right to make your water feature more active. The rest is your personal sense of aesthetics and satisfaction.
God, Jehovah Jireh is our provider. He alone is worthy. Jesus alone is worthy to be praised. He paid for our sins on Calvary’s Cross. He paid our debt. He took the curse that was due to us and set us free to be with God and eternity. The evil one wants to keep you bound in New Age, religion and darkness. You were created for more than this superstition. Jesus Christ is king and the whole universe was made by the breath of his mouth. Repent and be born again Jesus says. John 3:3 Amen.
Great tips. I am only able to fit one wall light outside my door and one plant. There is no space for the balance of two. When I put the plant outside I made sure it was a taller pot and nice green plant. The door is subject to HOA rule colors so I added a new light fixture and house numbers to be more modern. I added a small peep hole and later I will change the door handle to match. There is a nice mat and I always sweep away any tree leaves that fall in front. I do need to wipe down the front door and make sure it doesn’t stay dusty. So I keep things neat and presentable to the eye. I think the wreath is also a perfect idea to balance the look of the area. I will find the 9 coins to hang from the door know😊
The front door of the building matters but it is not in your control, therefore, it is your apartment front door that you can do something about. And since you cannot do as much as if you would for the house, the entryway is important for you to arrange well. You can find some ideas in this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NiuW66mITfs.html
I have front door facing south and backdoor facing north. Is this ok? What is best for decor on the front porch? I have a large water fountain across from backdoor with sound flowing into house. Is this ok?
If it really works, then why is China in such economic and financial danger, why are floods and resource losses of all kinds possible? Stop propagandizing nonsense
Good point. But modern Chinese people are not using Feng Shui much. It is out of China and practiced all over the world for a long time now. It is not about saving the world from floods and other problems, but making our homes more comfortable to live in.
@@nataliakaylin It's a pity that you need a "trick" to feel good, try cleaning and tidying your home and you'll feel good without any artifice, it's incredible how some people find things to attract unnecessary expense.
I would use the Bagua for the Southern hemisphere where north relates to the Fire Element and Fame and northeast relates to the Wood Element and Wealth, etc.
I have a wall of living room and bedroom in the South East part of the home , can you tell me please- is the mirror is ok in that area in a Nort East wall direction side Thank you!
I am not sure I can advise you without seeing a space. Mirror placement is not that simple. You may want to watch my video on mirror placement ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GlF6onKnZd8.html
@nataliakaylin can someone believe in God and still follow fenghui? I have crystals and other things i believe create good energy like candles and dream catcherS etc. Can we still believe in energy And fengshui ?
Thank you for this question. Feng Shui is not a religion. It is a science that addresses the subtle energy of the environment and an art of placement. Because Feng Shui is an ancient Chinese discipline, some talismans do have a cultural and religious connotation. I rarely use in my practice traditional Chinese talismans. Crystals, wind chimes or coins are universally appealing items, but to achieve a good results you don't even need to use any of this: you can work with colors, fabrics and furniture placement. About energy: you don't need to believe in it, it is physics. Everything is energy. So the answer is yes, absolutely, you can believe in God and work with Feng Shui to improve the energy of your home!
My front door is not visible from the street because it’s an MCM inspired home. The entryway/breezeway is inviting but it’s still feels like walking down a hallway and the front door is to the right at the end of hall. Got any tips for that reclusive entry?
@@es-hs9fd Recommendations for specific cases are always individual. I would have to see pictures, etc. but general suggestion: if you can't do much around your front door you can always boost it with color and put some extra attention to make sure your entryway is super inviting, warm, uncluttered, and with a good energy flow. I have videos on both topics.
Great advice, I feel ready to tackle giving my home office an overhaul now. Oh & where can I get some artwork like your beautiful mountain artwork behind your desk, I absolutely LOVE that. x
There are no specific talismans for selling a car, at least I am not aware of any. However, it is in a wealth category, so my suggestions in this video apply well. Use the one or two that resonate with you. Also make sure energy flows well at the entrance and southeast of your home.
I would actually clean the energy INSIDE the car, clean it really well, also inside and outside of it fix all boken things for good energy flow And then I would maybe take a Bell and make that high note inside the car while thinking positive thoughts and setting the intention to clear all old energy out and create space for new fresh energy clear energy Imagine white Light but do t think negative just say this car will make someone happy when buying it ❤@@s989.
