I love April! Signs of spring are all around. The snow is melting, the days are growing longer, the trees are beginning to bud, and more birds and woodland animals are showing up. A shift is in the
air.
Are you sensing the need for a change too? I am. I’m anxious for a steady stream of warm, sunny days and spending more time outdoors. In the meantime, I’m shifting my indoor environment from winter to spring. I’m lightening up, putting winter items away, rearranging furniture and plants.
Recently we restored our back porch from being a winter mudroom to a pleasant sitting area for the warmer months. It felt great to remove boots and snow shovels. This blog post about decluttering has some suggestions that you may find helpful.
The annual World Happiness Report was published in March. I included a blog post about it this month. Norway topped the list for the fourth consecutive year. The USA improved to number 14 on the list. Social networks are an important happiness factor and social distancing has been taking its toll on
everyone. Some of the patterns associated with social distancing are increased anxiety, stress, and an overall decline in mental health. Getting outside in nature, regular exercise, safely connecting with family and friends, and doing your own “release work” are excellent ways to get back on track if you’ve been feeling out of sorts.
This month, the feng shui area for focus is your Career gua. If you’re retired, energize this area for things you love to do and activities that bring you joy.
Happy Passover and Happy Easter to all who celebrate!
Enjoy April.

Create a Calm and Relaxed Environment with Focused Life Force Energy
|
|
A focus on your Career and Life Path is the primary theme for this month and Focused Life Force Energy (FLFE) is a service that can help you achieve your goal!
FLFE raises the consciousness of your environment. When consciousness is high, you’re apt to be more in tune with your intuition, you’re likely to take a more optimistic view of things, your resilience is strong, and life moves along relatively easily. When problems occur, they are solved with minimal effort. More helpful people and resources may simply show up too.

Prosperity Tip of the Month:
Water Energy Represent Money!
|
|
|
|
|
The April 11, 2021 new moon in Aries is associated with the Career gua. This is the center-front of your home, all the rooms in your home, your workspace and your yard. The Career gua relates to Water energy in the Five Element system. In feng shui, water represents money. Water flowing toward you brings financial blessings. Water flowing away from you, carries money away. Be sure that your plumbing is working well. Repair any leaks to help attract, retain and strengthen
money and financial blessings in your life. If you have a water feature in your yard or garden, have the water circulate 360 degrees outward or have it flow towards your home.
For more tips like this, check out my book with Madeline Gerwick, Money Is an Energy Game. If you’ve read the book, we’d love your review! You can place it directly on Amazon for Kindle copies (scroll to the bottom of the page) or send it to Peg and Madeline via email. Thank you!

Feng Shui Tip:
Create a Soothing Backdrop for Online Gatherings
|
|
After more than a year of increased Zoom, WebEx, and other online meetings and family gatherings, it’s time to pay attention to the message you’re sending out to the world via your backdrop. What do people see in your background when you’re online? Is it pleasing? What do you see that you like in other people’s backgrounds?
Clutter-free backgrounds project a sense of calm and well-being. Plants and flowers add an element of nature. Color adds energy. Blues and greens are calming. Yellow is cheerful. Reds and orange are energizing. Brown and beige bring stability. White is cleansing. It can also feel sterile.
If your background is cluttered, I encourage you to thin it out. You’ll improve the energy of your space. In turn this helps to create more balance and harmony.
You can play with your background by uploading favorite photos to Zoom. You can also select a Zoom virtual screen, or you can add a screen or room divider behind you.
