Feng Shui Definitions
Ch’i means “vital energy.” Everything is alive with Ch’i, connected by Ch’i, and the Ch’i in everything is always changing. Seeing the world as a dynamic, ever-changing “Sea of Ch’i” helps us understand why Feng Shui promotes the building and enhancing of vital Ch’i flow in our homes. We do this by arranging our furniture and possessions in specific ways, living with what we love, and adopting designs that promote safety and comfort. We also simplify and thoroughly organize our environment to encourage clarity and creative self-expression. We know we’ve struck the ideal Ch’i chord in our homes when we are experiencing happy, healthy, and prosperous lives.

Feng Shui Definitions
These suggestions are for single women who want romance in their lives:
- Stuffed animals and dolls on the bed “whisper” to a new lover that the bed is already taken. Make room for romance by giving them a home somewhere else.
- Romantic spontaneity is hampered by a wall of pillows on the bed. Cull the pillow herd, especially “fussy” pillows that need special care. Design a sensuous, unencumbered bed that you can fall into without a “single” care.
- Change art portraying companionless figures, solitary flowers, and other “onesome” subjects to “twosome” art: two people, animals, flowers, or two of anything that inspires you.
- Place pairs of items, such as candlesticks, vases, and books in the Love and Marriage area of your home and your bedroom (see Bagua Map).
- Act as if you already have a partner! Put inviting nightstands and lamps on both sides of your bed.
- Set the stage for receiving your new love by giving yourself the same loving care that you would a lover. Your loving relationship with yourself will strengthen your Ch’i and make you more attractive as a partner. Create a romantic atmosphere for yourself. Enjoy your own company, and find out what it’s like to really love you.
