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...💛

First invoice folder cover from 25 years ago...
I’ve bought 2 red folders. Just need to get the coins now.

Thank you for sending pictures of your toads. They are beauties. Where have you put them please
My FSM advised I put mine on the stairs at pocket height (part of my stairs face the front door). You can also put them in your wealth corners to activate the energy there. When you place yours (since you say retaining money can be a little hard for you) tell him you particularly need help with keeping your money as you set your intention to activate him. You might also want to put some imagery of a turtle at your back door facing inwards towards the door. He’s a great protector. I bought a stone tortoise from the garden centre. I’ll try to take a photo of him later and put it up here. Since your house is built on Feng Shui principles it may be likely that all you need is a bit of tweaking here and there. I’m so fascinated to hear how it goes for you. 💛

I am thinking of painting my front door black however I always struggle to make decisions regarding decorating so thought I would come here for some guidance and... here you are @Oops :m . I have missed you 🥰 I just wanted to say a big thank you for all your "poems and daft escapades", they always made me smile. Sending you lots of love and light ❤
🥁Sophie!!🥁 YASSSSSS! So good to see you 🤗

I’m so glad to see you right here
The energy here it is clear
Is much better suited
For one who uprooted
Reluctantly, prompted by fear...


A few Fur Baby poems on Vignettes and Pets if you fancy a top up ;). The love and light you send me 🎁 are VERY much appreciated and I have unboxed them and put them in a very prominent and safe place! Thank you 💛

Mine is on my laptop on a word document. I just googled pictures I wanted and pasted them onto the document. I made sure to open it and look at it at least once a day. But that's a great idea to put on music while creating it.

I was feeling extremely low last week too. And low in general for entire 2020. It was a not so great year, but I am doing my best to learn from it and move on to create a better version of myself. But I believe things will get better. 💕 Reading this thread and learning about all these different techniques to rid of all the negative energy definitely helped me.
That’s a great idea! never thought of a word doc 😁
Me too, I’ve never felt so low as I did since lockdown and I’m generally a positive person. I was working and traveling before covid and I’m finding it hard to adapt to being home full time but I try to think that every thing happens for a reason and maybe needed a break to go spend time with my family and take time out ❤
This definitely is a very useful and positive thread I’m so grateful I found it 😇

@Oops... @Milking Keynes @namina @happyforest
Girls, so pleased I tracked you down. How are you? What on earth happened? I feel completely discombobulated. I apologise if I said anything offensive. I wanted to step away but I felt I should start the new thread. There was so much I wanted to write about our lovely group and how we are all different but respect each other's opinions but I ended up not being able to express it.... 😣
Oh SO good to see you here!! 💛 You have NEVER said anything offensive! When I was a lurker it was YOUR posts that finally made me join! This is the thing that hacks me off the most; people who haven’t caused the problem worry it might be them! I think I have clicked appreciation of every post you have ever made since I joined. The ‘receipts’ are on the site as far as the problems and I am just so sorry if that’s made you question yourself. I think your opening post there was was perfect! I would have wanted to end that thread as soon as possible too and guessed that was why you had closed it off early. We have lost so many of our OG’s since last November. Morest, Gusber, Pounamouheart, Pixel, Red, Amalia I could go on and on about those we have lost. It’s such a pain that the DM button isn‘t there any more. I couldn’t hold you in any higher esteem than I do. I hope you know that.🤗. The chances of you upsetting anyone are about the same as Alitex giving every member of that forum a free top of the range greenhouse. Here endeth the sermon - (call me preachy;))

I am having a problem with my energy theorems :love:. Can anyone help me please? (You know who you are ;)) I saw you liking some posts...(she said happily..)

I'm so excited for the arrival of my toad today! So am I correct in placing him on the 2nd/3rd step of the stairs facing towards the house and not towards the front door?

And to turn him towards the wall at the weekends to give him a break?

*****POSITIVITY****

You asked earlier if it was a possibility I could move. Well, as said my life went into serious turmoil after escaping my 2nd husband. I ran 250 miles away from domestic violence. I was stabbed, tortured in a Marsh land and held over a quarry infront of my children. I don't want to spoil the positivity with my past but I just wanted to give you a small insight of just why I'm so grateful!!!! An exchange felt like an impossibility to me until today, as after ending up a drug addict my arrears ended up over £2000, I was so scatty and didn't realise until I got my life back into order last year. But I'm in so much other debt... I was struggling to pay everything off. And decorate and carpet this house, it still isn't all floored. I checked on my arrears today, because the amount has always scared me, depressed me.

I thought it would still be at least £900, it was £36 in arrears!!! Oh my. I can exchange now! Because I'm in a rock and a hard place. My children either want me to move 300 miles where they are with my first ex mother in law or... they are allowed to come home if I do move!! As my children have stated they don't want to come back to this particular house and would need their own rooms because of what they have suffered they need their own space.

I thought it would take another 2 years to pay off! I thought of this thread straight away! I can be reunited with my older children. My baby boy with his older brothers much sooner.

There is a whole weight gone. 🥰 thankyou all my love.

The lady trying for a baby... I've sent lots of hope to you. When I did, I just pictured a little baby boy. You will be a mum soon! ❤
This @ChloChlo is the best news ever, I am so happy for you xx

Yay, you're back !!!! ❤ ❤ ❤ We missed you, my friend !!! I think all our Feng Shui was off track for a bit lol 🤪
I feel I have to find a place to fit. I don't believe in the spiritual side of Feng Shui, but it surely is aesthetically pleasing and also in a way comforting. Like the thing with the bed opposite to the door. In my new place I am able to have the bed positioned not directly opposite of a door, and it's so much nicer and feels better.

I have read your post carefully.
I would not presume to make a reply without REALLY thinking hard about it because I am hearing you very well.
I will get back to you when I feel I have had a good think. With your case I think we need to find the right starting point as SO much is happening or has happened.
Get back to you soon x


GREAT! I got my Toad on eBay and he is glass (crystal). He is at pocket height on my staircase facing front door. At one time I had a decoupage screen placed in front of my front door (stairs are facing front door but are not in front of front door) but a delivery man knocked it over and broke the hinges when he was delivering a table. I took that as a sign not to have it there as it never felt right. My FSM said put the toad on the stairs so I did. He liked the screen but although it looked beautiful it didn’t feel right. The screen now lives in a different house. For anyone else if you can live with a folded screen in front of your front door I thought I should just mention it as it may work for others. It’s just a bit fiddly constantly moving it side to side when you need to open the front door though.♥


I can give you a quick reply to this one! This is what you do...

You get a box
You decorate the box yourself where he can see you decorating it
Hopefully he will ask you what you are doing
You give him your biggest smile and tell him you wanted to make him something and so you thought something like a decorated cardboard box would be very personal for him.
When you have painted it (or however you have chosen to decorate it) you place all the old hardware in the box. This is now HIS box. His SPECIAL box that you have made for him.
Hopefully he will be quick on the uptake and start using it...

Have had a little think about your first post and I think the best place to start is with light.
Clean ALL your windows inside and out. Make them gleam and keep them clean...
Draw back all curtains or window coverings and in daylight house it is imperative to have all your rooms as full of light as possible.
Open your windows and start getting the energy moving. Just an hour a day can make quite a difference.
Loo seat down always and as @Pixel Girl says keep doors to bathrooms closed.
For the time being use your back door (I am assuming its a communal front door?)
Don't have ANYTHING blocking the approach to your back door and if you can get a dark coloured tortoise (Stone or metal) online please do so and position it facing your back door. Make sure ALL your doors are scrupulously clean and in good repair so wash the front door inside and out and the back door and internal doors.
If you can face doing a huge Spring clean throughout do it and start now. Start with cleaning ceilings and walls and skirtings. Pull everything out and clean underneath furniture.
I would say that is your starting point although EVERY inch of me is screaming to say put your intention and focus into inviting a property exchange into your life. Put notices on line and do all you can to find a place with a better bathroom placement. My fear for you is that every time you seem to be getting somewhere something drops on you from a height and spoils it. I sense that is the problem in your home at the moment. Can you face moving and doing all you can to make that happen (I ask because you have said this isn't possible). When you focus on something it becomes your dominant thought and your mind follows your dominant thought.
If you can fill bowls with fresh fruit and have fresh flowers where you can see them. You need to get a balance with wood, metal, air and light at the moment. If you don’t like something or haven’t used it for ages give it away. Do as much space clearing as you can but start with light, clean windows and air. PLEASE let us know how you progress. Deep breath and start now...x I have held my hand on the screen of my iPad as I press send and am sending you kind thought and light energy btw.
Thankyou so much and to others who have given advice! I really do love this thread. Its so lovely. Such beautiful people taking their time to help ❤ sending you all my good vibes too.

I do get to see my older children. But they are settled with their grandmother (my first husbands mother) who took it upon herself to take them from the care system (two brothers and one isn't their blood relative at all so we are so lucky to have such a wonderful woman in our lives.) I see them often but I'm not yet granted overnights at my own house yet - Covid got in the way of assessments which were positive and glowing! So you are very right once I get somewhere, it seems something comes from nowhere and spoils it!

I'm so very grateful for your advice! I ordered myself some beautiful colour paint today in nice cool neutrals. I will look online for a tortoise now 🥰

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 💛 EDIT. (As you always are, have been and will be - there I’ve said it).
Oh thank you - it means the world - last thing I want to do is make matters worse for Miscanthus right now - things are off-key just as you predicted, and you second guess. I think everyone is coming from the right place, actually, it’s the energy that’s off so there are misunderstandings and then mistrust. It’s 100% as you said it would be.

We have eachother’s core support so if we keep sprinkling good intention can we halt the bad energy do you think?

Eta Twice I tried to bring the subject back, in fairness, once by referencing her mother and secondly by referencing the chickens!! To no avail though...

I received an advert for a kind of lottery raffle. Should I give it a go and buy it? Maybe the little toad sent it?

Or does Feng Shui not go with lottery?
Short answer - yes! It goes very well with opening up to all sources either expected or unexpected. 👏

I am sooooo looking forward to the post where you will say;

‘I know this might sound a bit ridiculous - BUT...’ ;)

I’ve just been on a little hunt through my extensive book shelves so that I could show you a book that helped me a lot in 1993. It helped me to become brave enough to set up my own company just a few years later. (The company has now evolved into a well respected (within our industry) national company. It started with a girl with an idea ;) . I found it so useful for actively focussing on what I wanted to draw to myself...I thought putting it here may help. My Feng Shui journey began as a result of this book because it opened me up to the idea of the infinity of solution. In other words - just because I haven’t thought of something doesn’t mean it isn’t available to help

How did you cleanse the house?
When I knew he wasn't returning again to pick any more things up, I made sure all his belongings were gone. Then I opened all the windows and set the intention that I would be clearing the house of negative energy and asked that energy to leave my home. I have a singing bowl which I used and struck the bowl in each corner of each room until the sound was clear. You don't need a bowl at all and can do this using your hands. You stand facing each corner and clap, if the energy is flat then the sound the clap makes will sound dead, believe me, you'll know what I mean when you try it. I continued to clap in each corner until the energy/sound was right, it has a ring to it. I also used Sage, which I burnt in each of the rooms, starting at the top and working my way down, having the doors open so the negative energy could leave. Once I felt satisfied that it was okay, I then ran a thin line of salt on the ground outside of every door (including the garage as you could get into the house via that route) to keep the negative energy at bay. While I was doing all this I played some music, no lyrics, I can't remember what it was, but will have been a CD that I bought from one of the 'Hippy Shops' that I love. I also burn Nag Champa incense sticks from time to time, also bought from the same shop, although I tend to buy mine online now.

Here’s my talisman.
Photographed it next to my donor card to show scale (donor card is same size as a credit card and driving license but obvs didn’t want to photograph those!)
It’s made of thin metal so not too heavy.
I’ve just slotted it into my mobile phone case.
Edit: eek the photo is huge!! :eek:

Can money frogs from amazon really work? Do they need to be from a more "pure", less mass produced source?
I'm so confused. Help?
Brass, gemstone, ceramic... anything over plastic really. I have a pair of jade Chi Lin and a metal stamp with my name on top of 'lucky money' in my home office.

(My family use old school Taoist FS masters. So I'm only giving examples of what I have, I'm not a strict FS'er but a little extra luck never hurt anyone ;))

NO! Beams are bad? I pine for beams, and dream of moving to England and having an old house dripping with beams. Curiously, my English MIL always says she would never buy a house that had beams in the bedrooms, or sloped ceilings, and I just thought her eccentric.

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...
I am really enjoying reading all of the posts on here. I like your idea of doing a clap in our corners as a group and would love to join in ❤

I guess. It's the best place for my love of sardonic commentary.
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 ❤
