Harnessing the Stars: Navigating Life Transitions with Astrology
The energy of our house plays an important role in our life; it is believed that the way we feel throughout the day depends on the vibe that our house emits. It is very rightly said that we attract what we feel. So the best way to avoid negative energy from entering our homes is to think and stay positive.
Another great way to avoid any kind of negative energy from entering our homes is the traditional ritual of “Feng Shui”. It has been in practice since ages and has proved to be highly effective, here are a few techniques from the Feng Shui which can help you keep away all negative energy at bay.
Go Clutter-free
It won’t be wrong to say that cleaning is therapeutic; it is the best way to de-stress. Another added benefit of cleaning out the clutter at your home is it keeps all negative energy away. Objects are said to have their own energy and these energies affect your life. Depending on the energy, it may lead to obstacles or hindrances in your way.
Learned men say that we should only keep the objects that we need and throw away all unwanted items so that the vibe of the homestays calm and positive. Keep the stuff that brings you joy and throw the rest away.
No mirrors in the bedroom
Feng Shui masters advise that you should never keep a mirror in your bedroom. They are said to hamper the emotional health of the people staying in the room. It is believed that mirrors double the energy in the room, now which may sound good but just imagine if there is negative energy in the room, having a mirror would double your troubles.
It is said that it brings in more loneliness for singles, and brings more people in the room if you are a couple. It is not a hidden fact, that when we go to bed we have the emotional baggage of the entire day, so having a mirror would mean that during the night, this energy will double. So even if you can’t remove the mirror, be sure to cover it during the night.
