When I read it @Milking Keynes I saw it as you trying to pour oil on troubled water not the other way round! You were the complete voice of reason and comfort IMHO 💛
I agree...nothing to apologise for 💛

I'm so sorry I was not there for you @Miscanthus ... But your response was 100% on point, you brought tears to my eyes. I am sending you virtual hugs for making such a brave brave post ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 💛. Hugs welcome ❤

Question re Feng Shui and business;

Husband is self employed. I file his invoices to customers in a blue A4 ring binder. I also file his bank statements and VAT return in another blue A4 binder.
Would a different colour binder be more auspicious or a patterned binder or attach coins, etc?
Would appreciate any thoughts please.
Deffo change to RED! Put 3 coins tried with red ribbon on front of both! Can’t tell you how important this is. In my company we kept the first invoice book as a memento. It became so battered over the years and then we changed to paperless. Anyway do please try it. BTW my company grew into a national company so it worked for me...💛

My money toad is presently relaxing. Weekends off, ya know? ;)

I received the red string (thank you, Amazon), and hopefully gave him a nice scarf effect. I hope he doesn't feel choked by my clumsy sartorial efforts. I was worried my family was thinking me a lunatic, and yet, my husband has been checking to see if he is back at work every Monday morning. I'm finding the money toad is good at his job. Because otherwise I don't think my very analytical, not remotely spiritual, innately skeptical, yet perfect husband would take such care to keep tabs on the little labouring toad's work hours. So read into that what you will. LOL

(OT and not to pressure you at all, but I do so hope you return to the kitchen door-less bungalow thread. You are sorely missed.💔)
My heart sang when you described your husband!💛 I just love to hear stuff like that!! You have always described him in the loveliest terms and I love that he’s there with you on your avatar. It always makes me smile (along with the dog-less dog lead...). He’s more on the page than he knows you know ;).

It doesn’t feel right for me to do that at the moment at all but I’m giving it a lot of thought. My energy doesn’t feel right for it any more. However, I’m trying to shift the energy (in me) and trying to think hard how to navigate it. If you do something that doesn’t feel right; on a quantum level you are damaging yourself. I stopped doing that many years ago and saw a massive change for the better. Compromise is always a good thing but when you compromise on your truth it’s completely different. (If that males sense :rolleyes:).

@Oops... please don’t leave thread... your posts were the most beautiful posts there... unfortunately I switched phones (old one broke beyond repair) were I saved one of your poems you wrote, it was that beautiful. I am devastated that i cannot find it anymore in threads (they are so many of them). You made so many tattlers happy with your posts, me included. Please, don’t leave
🤗 Hellooooo! So lovely to see you! What was the poem about? I can write it again here for you and put it back up. I am so touched to hear you saved it.! Truly. Don’t tell anyone but I have ALL the cats and dogs from Fur Babies saved on my phone and I look at them often.🐕

Thanks so much, I will ensure to follow all of these guidelines. Will any frog/ toad ornament do? The hallway is actually quite dark even though it's big so I will try and make it more light in there.
Also, my other half keeps shoving stuff under the beds and I HATE it! I can't stand things under the bed (I don't like much clutter in general) and it makes me feel all panicky. Is this something to do with the energy flow?? Thanks again @Oops... I really appreciate you taking the time to advise me xxxx
It sounds to me like you have a natural feel for the energy in your home anyway if you already don’t do clutter - which is brilliant. If you OH is putting anything under beds decorate a lovely box for them ( one you won’t mind looking at) and put all the under bed stuff in the nicely decorated box. A thick cardboard box decorated with decoupage that you like and glued on...a) it’s a nice project, b) shows you care, c) you hav3 created a nice solution. The energy under a bed is very important to keep unhindered because that’s where you rest. Just to say that your front door is the mouth of your house so it’s very important to keep it very clean and fresh and to have live plants if it’s possible. If you don’t mind having an ornament as opposed to a picture you could buy a money toad and sit him on the stairs. This will enhance your finances too. Here’s a photo of mine ( from eBay). He’s crystal glass but you can get other toads made from different fibres such as metal etc if you like the look of them more. My feng shui master told me to have him facing the wrong way at weekends to give him a rest and also to give him 4 weeks holiday a year. I thought that was a bit daft ( actually I always forget is more the truth) so mine works all the time! He’s on the fifth stair up (pocket height).

Totally. It's now made me think twice about commenting. Or having to put a disclaimer with my comment. Fingers crossed our darling Oops will be back soon.
I feel the same and I don't even post as much. I am clapping away all the negative energy (especially since I forgot to do it this month) and manifesting/visualising/hoping for oops.

I would say it would be perfect if your girls do the clapping yes! Make a family fun day out of it :m .

Hopefully we can agree a time suitable for all soon - Great you can do any of the times mentioned x
So happy you agreed as the girls are keen to get involved.

I have enjoyed reading your comments so much and especially in light of the Lydia situation and our ongoing concern regarding little Porter and the chaos in the house. It is v interesting that you mention, for example, that Teddy Bear and, in my case, Gem, should not be in the house during our smudging and clapping for energy day. It has come up a few times on this thread of a dog’s sensitivity, ie in light of bad energy the dog may cower from those perceived areas.

In Lydia’s case, I don’t think she has given Porter a single thought. I think, as a puppy only recently introduced to a new home, the complete gutting - not minor refurb, but gutting of the living areas and the outside, is unforgiveable. It is so frightening for him to be faced with all these changes and scents and smells and disruption in such an important transition time, I just feel sick. It’s really gone beyond cruelty now.

Actually and weirdly, Amalia - I am getting great joy out of the Aldi and Lidl thread - very tongue in cheek humour. I seem to recall that you don’t like to cook but you might enjoy ❤
Is that a real thread or are you joking? I have atm problems with the tattle page on both of my browsers (Firefox, Chrome on Win10). Sometimes I have a search tool and then again not, sometimes I have to repeat the wanted action again and again etc. So I can't look it up myself. Guess I could google it 🤪
Because the Lidl thread I know of, has nothing to do with cooking 😂😂😂😂😂 (despise 1200 kniFes)

Unequivocally yes! 💛 It can be diverted by good intent and steadfastness. What’s happened there possibly is a portal got opened and the bad energy whooshed in. So jointly you can ’put the door back up’. This should stop it happening :giggle: (If you get my drift...)
Yay!! What a relief... and there’s a few of us, so hopefully we can grab it by it’s door furniture and slam it shut. Thank God we have you, @Oops ❤❤

You are such a supportive rock to all of us @Namima 🤗. You are a 🌟.

As soon as I saw @Miscanthus ‘s post I went to look but it was a few hours too late. She has spoken her truth and dealt with it well. I really feel for her too. As ever @Milking Keynes saw it as it was happening and went in with exactly the right post giving reassurance about how everything went back to normal quickly for her. Then it kicked off again...I read so much sadness and heartbreak there last night😥 . My heart really went out to those who so bravely posted. I do agree with scrolling past as @Miscanthus says (I used to scroll past the dehumanising posts about women’s anatomy because I learned to know who was most likely to make them) but sometimes you have read the post you wish you’d scrolled past and the damage has been done. It’s a hard one. I think it’s so comforting that we support each other though 💛 .
I have no idea what is going on on that thread. Some bad karma is there for a while.
And last night was such a sesitive subject. IMO the poster got offended, and while giving voice for it, posted such an offensive post it was hard to ignore.
The thread has fear all over it. Fear of posting and get banned or loosing other members.
Sending love to everybody! Life is an absolute challenge, and everybody is a hero on their own to deal with it! ❤

They’ve been dispatched so I’ll let you know when they arrive.
Tbh I chose that website because it’s run by a Feng Shui master and they say they ensure that all items are cleansed of negative energy before they post them out.
I was too inspired by it to wait for your review. I've got my "Rat" card ordered and now waiting for its shipment. Great site, IMO!

Is there anything you can do with Feng Shui to improve health, mental and physical?
I might have a think about your health area and try to activate as much as possible there. It is essential to do this with as much kindness as possible because it is one of the greatest kindnesses you can give yourself. You may (in your mind) go back to a time when you were aware of receiving kindness and remember that nice warm feeling and hold that thought uppermost. This can help others too if you can get them to talk about times when they have had those warm feelings caused by kindness. Then maybe do a search on all the things you can do to in your central health area. I won’t list them because it’s so important that the ‘cures’ resonates with you when you do your research. When you find the things that feel right to you that’s the time to apply focus and make any improvements or changes you feel appropriate. I do hope this reply doesn’t come across as too esoteric and that I have described it in a helpful way for you. There is a lot of info out there on the centre of the bagua btw. 🌹

Quick question @Oops...

Although you can’t see my back door from my front door, you can see part of one of my back windows (a small one), but I never open that window and I keep the blind down.

Is this considered bad chi and if so what can I do to fix it? 🤔
Absolutely nothing to worry about 🤗 In the event you have the tiniest nag about it you could always clap in front of that window to shift the energy if you sense any stagnancy/heaviness in that little part.😍

Anyone heard from our girl ?
She has liked a few posts so she is definitely around x

I love that post! I love the idea of your dear father building you all a house he designed and I love the idea of you all enjoying it. I remember well you telling me about him and the song that spoke to you that he loved. There are some very good reasons why you loved the seaside house more than the Georgian one...
First of all not only was it designed by your lovely father but it was NEW! Therefore it carried no energy from the past. Secondly, it was filled with light - this is SO important! Thirdly you had views of moving water. Combine them all and you had all the ingredients for a perfect environment!
I have a passion for Georgian properties because of the scale of the rooms and the light and the symmetry. I love symmetry. However, FSM said houses with history are anathema to Feng Shui. He actually told me I have a family of French people living in my wine cellar and they play cards all day. They moved in in late 1700’s he said...He told me to move them on I have to have children playing noisily in the wine cellar. I thought long and hard about that but since I have never seen or heard them and since they don’t bother me at all or cause anything to go wrong (that I am aware of) I would rather they remained; as I hate the thought of displacing them and would worry where they would go. I must say I thought he was a bit bonkers when he said that. Also, the wine cellar and the gym next to it feels lovely (to me). I like the energy of it as it is.

Just to say, energetically - when someone else passes responsibility on to you it is very natural to feel resentment of the extra responsibility - so I get what you say about your mother. I don’t think you resented your mother I think maybe you resented the fact that it put pressure on you. I also understand what you say about the upkeep of old property. It is never ending. My dream at the moment is to have an architect design me a new house of Georgian proportions with everything built into it. It might be hard for me to leave my garden though. If it had sea views and a beach to walk Teddy Bear on I would be delirious. I have been really thinking about this lately. I found a house recently that would be perfect just outside Bath. It’s described in the blurb as a modern masterpiece and it looks Georgian from the outside. However, it is opposite a church and a graveyard. The Church is a poison arrow in FS because of its shape and a graveyard view is a big no no. I lived in Bath years ago and loved it and the house was in a Crescent and had 101 stairs. If I left my phone at the top of the house it might stay there for days because it was such a fag to go back up for it :eek:. That house had a sizeable Feng Shui story to it which I may refer to from time to time as we go along. Eventually and reluctantly I had to move. It was my perfect home but my energy and its energy didn’t always agree...despite my very best efforts. At the same time I had a London flat which was bright, ultra modern, overlooked the river and I LOVED it too. There I had my minimalist life. Everything was white and linear and if you put a newspaper down it made the place look untidy. I loved the simplicity of it and always felt very centred when I stayed in town.

Talking about corners (this is the second time corners have been mentioned) I thought maybe we could all get our heads together as a group and nominate a day when we could all clap our corners to activate the energy. I haven’t done that in the house I live in now but always used to years ago. In addition we could all get sage and smudge sage in our homes and then if we all did it on the same day we would have a very interesting topic to discuss together. If anyone would like to do that as a group endeavour do say. It might be really good fun and we may all experience some very good energy from it at the same time. 😍 Just a little idea, no pressure though...

Thank you so much for your response, @Oops. I actually went over to my sister’s house today to discuss this with her. It is so fascinating to me that the energy of your home can disagree with your own energy. I have learnt so much from your comments with regard to the house my father built aligning so perfectly with my own energy and vision for my own home. I felt a weight lifted off me when we moved into this house in 2018. The difference in my outlook, moods and stress levels was unbelievable. The only thing in my life that changed significantly was the house move so it must have been that.

I just looked at the five elements as I was also very interested in what you said on the other thread earlier today about the changes Lydia is making to her house at a manic speed. The chart clearly illustrates the point you made about fire and wood not being in close proximity. It will be interesting to see that play out as well as the removal of the kitchen door.

I’m also very appreciative of all the other posts and everyone’s stories. Money toad due to be delivered soon. x

Oh I love this! Some of these things are hard for me to adjust so I’ll need to find remedies. For instance, the mirrors in the bedroom & coffin style sleeping. Not sure I can change the position of the bed, and we are saving to get the wardrobes remodeled. They’re from the previous owners who, by the way, had A LOT of bad luck. Interestingly, we’ve had a lot of good luck since we moved into this house. When I’ve some time, def reading up on remedies.

One question about front door / back door. We have a door in between the two separating the rooms. The front & back door are not perfect in line, and there are stairs blocking a 100% view, but the back doors are also the whole lengthy (mostly) of the back side of the house, if this all makes sense.

Does the middle door “make up” fir possibly being able to see partway through the house. It’s so hard to explain
