Feng Shui Without a Home
We recently received this question from one of our alumni, and thought it was great information to share with the group:
“I would be so pleased to have your opinion upon this question; how does Feng Shui work for a homeless person? How can Feng Shui be applied to someone without their own space? And what does it mean not having a home?
I really appreciate sharing your point of view on this.”
When a person doesn’t have a home, she can focus her attention on embodying the inner work of the Bagua, which is covered gua by gua in my Western Guide to Feng Shui, Room by Room book. In doing so, she will speed her way to creating a more abundant life, including having a physical roof over her head.
The inner work of the guas is essential! I recently had a client who came to my house and we sat and did the circle of the Bagua on paper, contemplating where he was "at" with regard to each of the guas' ideal energies. We asked–was he stable internally with each, or did he have some unresolved issues with various ones? With the help of the Unseen Helpers and the I Ching, messages for balancing himself in each gua came to mind, with inspirations on lifestyle changes to do for each. He felt transformed and harmonized at the conclusion of our session, and was able to make some major decisions and choices to move forward into a more excellent situation, leading to better housing for him and his family. I would recommend this inner feng shui Bagua process for anyone, regardless of housing.
Thanks Karen for the insight on using the bagua to help clients really give thought to the key areas of their life. I often find people are stuck in their preconceived idea of where their life challenges are (usually 'outward' issues). Your method is a useful short-cut for both myself and my client to identify (inner) blocked areas leading to a more satisfying Feng Shui outcome. A win-win for all of us.
