A Note From Katie

If you had a hard time seeing the shiny green blouse that I wrote about last week, it wasn't your computer. Ah, technical glitches abound during Mercury retrogrades -- and my pretty blouse fell prey to one. So, there it is at right. Go shiny girls!

Let's see what else is happening....Leah's little boy is out of the hospital, but still under her careful watch. It's now ten days before school is out and the summer is upon us. I'm excited because we've got some fun plans for the summer -- that we made back in the cold days of January -- and here we are at the doorstep of June ready for them to unfold.

Now that 2009 is HALF OVER, have you taken a little inventory of the year?

It's a good idea to do a quick check to see if you are where you expected to be at this point in 2009. I am further than I expected, truth be told. And, I don't think it happened accidentally...

You need a vision
Many of the things I want to accomplish in my life are symbolized on my vision board. Maybe you have your own vision board. If you don't know what they are, a vision board is a collage of meaningful images of where you want to be, your goals, or things you'd like to have or the person you want to be.

Do a quick Google search and you can find all kinds of images and examples of how to create one. I say go crazy with some pictures, glue and scissors. I'm about to create my third vision board -- and it has LOTS of airplanes on it. You can read today's re-vamped Feature Article to find out why.

Sending you love, success, and great vision --

Your feng shui thought for the week:
"There are two kinds of action: One is outer and the other is inner. But who is to say if one of them is better? The Sage cannot tell."

Feng Shui Your Vision Boards and Make Your Dreams Take Off

A vision board is a powerful way to visually represent the aspirations and goals you have for your life with images. The images can either be pictures of what you would like, a house where you'd like to live, a car you'd like to drive, or can be a title you aspire to, such as writer, actor, president. People respond well to images. They inspire us in ways that words don't. Combining a goals list with a vision board is especially powerful.

In feng shui, when compass feng shui, flying star or another type of feng shui merge together, this is called "compounding" feng shui. The feng shui, because it's multiplied, becomes more powerful.

The simple act of writing out your goals is powerful and then to compound it with a vision board makes it more powerful still. Add feng shui to the equation and you have a vision board that can propel you to a whole new place. Are you ready for that? I mean, really, ready? Many people say they want something new, but new can be scary. Just be ready to move forward if you do this!

Choosing symbols
Feng shui understands that symbols are influencers and important ones at that. When you are selecting symbols for your vision board, select symbols that are meaningful to you. That might include the number "13." Many people think it's a negative number, but if it's meaningful in a positive way to you, then include it. (I predicted that "lucky 13" Rachel Alexandra would win in the Preakness -- and she did!)

Make your dreams take off
Heaven energy is very powerful for helping you manifest your dreams and desires. Heaven can be represented by balloons, airplanes, hot air balloons, rockets, stars, and clouds. The influence of heavenly energy can't be overstated. My own vision board features jets with my particular goals written on the side so I can watch my own dreams "take off." You can also use feng shui energy in the productive form to create your vision board.

Energize your board with productive feng shui placement
These are the principles that feng shui is founded on. Each aspiration is tied to a particular direction. Career is the aspiration of the north, health is the east, travel the northwest. Next, using the directions from the bagua, place the corresponding aspiration in the appropriate corner. Start with the north or career in the bottom middle of your vision board. Then moving in a clockwise direction, add the aspiration symbol for northeast in the lower left corner. This could be a book if you're a student, a deity for spirituality if that's your interest or any symbol of general wisdom.

The next corner is the left, or east corner. Place an image of health, a lush plant, a picture of a woman jogging or any symbol that is meaningful for health for you personally. Continue going around your board in this manner. This clockwise movement adds stimulation to your vision board, going from yin (north/water) to yang (south/fame/reputation) and back to yin again. This follows the productive direction of feng shui.

Spark of life
It's important that you have a spark of life in your vision board. It should appear vibrant, active, interesting. Place your most important image in the center of your vision board. This can be the central theme of your board if you like. You can then use symbols that support that central theme and still follow the directions of the bagua. Lastly, every item must be "energized" in order for it to imbue precious yang energy. To create this, simply add something red on your vision board. You could also loop a piece of red ribbon through your board or glue red paper to the back.

Make sure you place your board where you see it prominently and often. This will help to encourage you and keep you focused on what you want in life and where you want your goals to take you.

Katie Recommends

A Day of Feng Shui

When You're Ready to Move Ahead.... Fast
In just two weeks, it will be June 1st. That means we'll be half way through 2009. Are you where you want to be this year? I can help you get where you want to go.

A personal one-on-one feng shui consultation at your home or office -- or both -- can help you leap frog ahead. If you're ready to make a big step in life and in the quality of your life, a Day of Feng Shui is the answer.

I'll come to your home or office, or both, and we'll spend a full day together one-one-one discovering how your feng shui is influencing you, your family, and your employees. You'll find out how to maximize the good things going for your home and office -- and which areas are holding you back -- and how to fix them without knocking down walls or moving to a new house.

It's a big step and if you're ready, I'm ready to help you move forward in life by helping you create the supportive environment that helps get where you want to go, only faster and easier.

Find out more about a Day of Feng Shui and how to schedule one for yourself -- I only have 4 Days of Feng Shui left until 2010.

After speaking with Katie, I applied the feng shui remedies that she suggested and almost immediately I noticed a difference. My husband and I both felt like a huge weight had been lifted from our shoulders. Our “helpful people” sector was supercharged because we have had incredible people come into our lives bringing support, great advice and funding opportunities for both of our business endeavors. Katie, thank you so much for your easy to understand approach to feng shui!!

Feng Shui Q&A

Do you have a question about feng shui? If so, send it in. Your question may be edited for clarity and length. Your name and personal information will not be used. If possible, I will try to respond to your question personally, but if I can't, I'll try address it in a future Q & A column.

Question:
It's been a rough recession and I have moved twice and sold a lot of my belongings. Right now I sleep on the floor on an air mattress. Is this bad feng shui?

Answer:
I am sorry to hear about your predicament, but the sooner you can get a regular mattress, headboard, and bed frame, the better. I bet you're pretty weary. You need a firm foundation while you sleep. The headboard is also an important part of support. Even if you take an old door and turn it on its side and use that as your headboard, do it. You need a firm foundation so you feel supported and cared for. Put your effort on getting a bed so you can regain a solid footing that can only come when you are supported in your most vulnerable time -- when you sleep.
