Salome Waterhouse, Feng Shui practitioner
and the protagonist in The Feng Shui
Mysteries, helps solve crimes and
household misdemeanors (like a cracked
walkway and steps leading to the front
door). Here’s what she has to say about
Helpful People/Travel:
Some of you will have the entrance to your
house in this position. Since chi (energy)
enters through the front door (even if you
use other doors more frequently) create a
welcoming aspect here.
Before having any work done on your
dwelling, stimulate this gua. You will be
aligning your contractors with positive,
timely results. The same goes for
automobile repair. Create a special wish
box with silvery paper (or just use a silver
box) and, at the new moon, write down
three wishes then place the box in this gua.
If you’re planning a trip, include a St.
Christopher medal or any icon you feel
attached to that represents travel. At any
time, place the name of someone whose
help you need in the silver box (say, a real
estate agent to sell your house). Religious
icons placed in this gua will strengthen your
spiritual bonds.
Want to travel to a special locale? Place
pictures and books here about your desired
location. The more detail you add, the more
positive energy you will attract for achieving
your goal.
To prosper, we need the help of others and
opposite this gua is Prosperity. When the
energies in these two guas are balanced
and in harmony, we experience success. If
you are in business, the helpful people gua
represents your associates and customers.
If you are a writer, the gua represents
readers and the places where your work is
sold. (An agent, however, is represented in
the Relationship gua. That particular
professional relationship is like a marriage.)
Be your own helpful person as in the
adage, “the Lord helps those who help
themselves.” Be a steward for a cleaner,
healthier environment. And always
remember to be grateful to those who help
you in life. This includes all those people
we never see who work to get food to
market, who work on our roads, who
provide electricity, and so on.
Feng Shui Tip
Inside or outside your dwelling, hang a wind
chime here. Swat it whenever you see it
while envisioning the help you want and/or
a specific person to help you. The sound
will carry your positive thoughts and
intentions out into the world.
