Finding a lover
Tired of meeting Mr. Wrong, Mr. Boring and the Mr. No Way? Give some of these Faux Shui tips a try and change your *ch'i to meet your he (or she). We don't guarantee you'll find your one true love after implementing these ideas, but it ain't gonna hurt either. If anything, you'll build plenty of ammo for next year's Valentine's Day.
Watch your step!
Clearing the clutter in and around your bedroom allows the ch'i to move about freely and invites love to flow effortlessly into your life. Besides you don't want him to trip as he sweeps you off your feet!
What a pane!
Ch'i gets in through the windows, so wash those dirty panes to allow as much positive love and life force in as possible. No, your mother did not put us up to this.
Dust everything.
Dust signifies neglect and laziness! Get rid of the grime and cobwebs and any opportunity for him pen a "Dear Jane" letter in the dust on your dresser.
Wind songs stay on your mind.
Hang a wooden wind chime in your bedroom window to stir things up and activate the ch'i. A wooden one will attract a new love. Hang a glass one if you're already in a relationship. If you want an extra boost, make your own from bamboo. Bamboo brings good luck for getting lucky!
Smudge your bedroom.
Burn some sage or sage incense in your bedroom to get rid of bad vibes and let your good vibrations fill your aura.
Love LIFE.
Put a live plant (as opposed to a dead one) in your room. Plants represent growth and life. Red flowery plants are good. And for added measure, plant it in a red pot. Make the color of love your new favorite color.
