Moving to the Santa Barbara area in California many different Feng Shui situations arise.
Although we love the ocean being at every turn on the road , we want to balance the water element with some fire element. Having some red accents in a home where water is the main surrounding element is a good idea. In general especially in bathrooms, laundry rooms, and by the kitchen sink where water is even more prevalent.
And of course the Santa Barbara area is very mountainous. When living on a hill as I do, you have to slow down the traffic of the road by putting tiny mirrors by the side of the road facing the downward flow of the traffic. Feng Shui principals say our money goes down the hill with the flow of traffic so the mirrors act as a cure to slow down the flow away from your house.
Santa Barbara residents are generally packed into the city, land being so expensive and space limited.
Sometimes we need cures to take off the edge of noise. Hanging windchimes between your home and the source of noise, be it the freeway or dogs that bark regularily or neighbours boisterous activitisies.
Using our intention to send energy back with love mysteriously help us relax. Try it and see for yourself.
