Funky Fu Home Tips
Here's what to do to make your home Funky Fu.
1. Above the outside of any entrance door (front door, back door, sliding door, etc.) hang an actual Ba-Gua. Make sure it is a flat Ba-Gua. There are 3 different Ba-Gua's, flat, concave and convex. The concave and convex are for temporary use in certain circumstances. The flat can be put above the doors permanently. If you cannot put it above the doors then put it on the doors.
2. Fu Dogs are very important as they guard the home and/or business. And they look so cute! Purchase a pair and place them on either side of the front door, preferably outside. If you cannot place them outside then put the right inside on either side of the front door.
3. Tie Chinese coins with a red ribbon and hang or place them in the wealth corner. If you do this make sure the coins are in increments of 3, 6 or 8. The 8 being the most powerful money manifesting number.
4. Keep the kitchen well stocked with food. When we have our cupboards filled with food, we feel more abundant. Add mirrors to increase the size of a small room. You will create a feeling of more space and bring endless opportunities. Use bright lights-spotlights, crystal chandeliers and twinkling lights.
5. Add fire elements in your home ambience with in the south corner of your home. Use objects like candles, incense, diyas, etc. Hang a painting with red as the dominant colour or a photograph frame made of wood in the corner. They would be excellent supplements to the fire element since wood produces fire.
