Hello,
August is shaping up to be a delightful month, compared to July. Mercury turns direct August 1, and after a few days of stillness, it moves forward again by August 4th. You can too.
We have a very nice stretch of excellent energy days with very few long “timeout” periods. September will be an excellent month too. If you’ve been holding off on decisions and getting things done, this is the time to act. August is also a great month for vacation, travel and enjoying yourself before we return to more serious business and endeavors in September.
Have you noticed a seasonal shift in light? I have. The past few evenings I’ve been noticing that dusk is appearing about 8:30pm in NH. Although we still have a solid month of summer remaining
(and about eight weeks according to the calendar), this seasonal shift is a subtle reminder that each day is growing a bit shorter. It’s all the more reason to have some fun this month.
Feng shui-wise, give some attention to the Children and Joy area of your house (center-right), as well as the Center. Remember that whatever happens in the Center permeates the entire space.
Keep the energy in the Center of your home free-flowing and joyful.
Also remember that thoughts create things. Refrain from joining the chaotic pulse of our times by sending out positive thoughts and providing encouragement rather than complaining or reinforcing
what you don’t like or don’t agree with. In The Divine Matrix, Gregg Braden tells us that it only takes the square root of one percent of the population to create the momentum for lasting change (p.116). Given the USA’s 2018 population of 327.2 million, this means that as few as 1,809 people sending pure, positive thought, can begin the process. Send out optimistic thoughts every day and be a vehicle for constructive momentum and progressive change.
Enjoy August!

Your August Feng Shui Forecast
|
- July 31: New Moon in Leo
- August 1: Mercury moves forward
- August 15: Full Moon
- August 30: New Moon in Virgo
Early August Area of Focus: Children, Joy & Creativity Gua
Mid-Late August Area of Focus: Health and the Center of Your Home
We begin and end the month with a new moon. New moon periods are about new beginnings. Mercury also moves forward beginning August 1st, so we get an extra boost after a few days. It’s a good month to reflect on what you’d like to begin or transform in your life. The new moon in Leo, late on July 31 (or early August
1 for those on the West Coast of the USA), correlates with the Children, Joy and Creativity gua. The second new moon, on August 30th, in Virgo, relates to overall health, which is the Center of your space....

August 30: New Moon
in Virgo
|
|

The August 30th new moon in Virgo aligns with the Center of your home or workspace. The energy of this area is about your overall health and well-being.
The quality of energy in the Center of your home or workplace influences your entire life and everyone who spends time there.
Begin preparing for this about two weeks ahead: August 18th or later. Pay attention to the center (or energetic center) of your home and see what you notice. What captures your attention and how does the area feel?...

How to Lay the Bagua Over Your Floor Plan
|
|
|
The feng shui bagua is a symbolic map of life issues that maps your home, every room in your home, your land and your workspace or business, to your life.
For the majority of spaces, you place a grid of nine spaces, similar to a tic-tac-toe board, over the floor plan. Some spaces will be square, others might be a vertical or horizontal rectangle. Many times, an area comes up short and does not fully fill the grid or you have extra rooms and additions that pop out or extend
beyond the basic bagua. This is all OK and quite normal.

Send Positive Thoughts to Water!
It's Essential to Life and Has Memory
|
|
|
We live in a world that pulsates with energy, a life-force that is present in everything. This life-force, also known as chi and prana, can be very dense and slow or light and fast moving. Feng shui is the study of this life force in your environment and its effects on your life. Everything in
your environment contributes to what happens in your life. This is why it’s so important to continually raise the vibration in your home and workplace through positive thoughts, loving emotions, beautiful music, healthy plants and food, objects that you love, and generally everything that helps you to feel lighter, healthier and happier. Water is an essential aspect of this....

Home Feng Shui Tip: Reinforce Feeling Uplifted
|
|
|
The quality of energy in the Center of your home permeates throughout your entire space. You can tap into the positive aspects of this by placing something positive and meaningful in this area. It might be something that brings a smile to your face, something that reinforces health and well-being, something that strengthens family bonds, or anything that has
deep meaning to you.
In the center of my home I have a beautiful bowl of crystals, a variety of family photos and a vase of fresh flowers. Rainbows dance across the room when the sun shines on the crystals. The photos are wonderful reminders of time spent with family and friends and flowers bring a fresh and vibrant energy. What’s in the Center of your home? At minimum, create some open space.

Business Feng Shui Tip:
The Center Reflects Your Business
|
|
|
The Center of your workplace holds a vibration that reflects your entire business. Place things here that reinforce your mission and values. This could include a mission or values statement, examples of your products or services, something that reinforces health and well-being, or something that brings
everyone together or makes you smile.
If the Center feels tired, stagnant or worn, check for clutter or things that have been sitting around for a while. They contribute to stuck energy. Clear out, reduce or shift what you can. If employees sit in this area, schedule an employee cleanup day and encourage everyone to clear out the excess. Doing so goes a long way to uplifting a
space. Fresh plants and flowers can help to raise the vibration.
