 FENG
SHUI TIPS FOR ROMANCE |
|
Feng Shui practitioners believe that the best
way to attract love is to adjust your environment accordingly.
Dingy surroundings, piles of clutter, and self-absorbed art
work can actually drive Cupid away from your door. Here, then,
are 10 simple tips for finding your perfect mate... or for increasing
the passion in your long-term relationship or marriage. |
| |
Replace images of lone figures with
pictures of happy couples —
Art work has a tremendous impact on the subconscious. When
you surround yourself with photos, paintings, sculptures,
and knickknacks of solitary figures, you'll carry yourself
accordingly. Replacing such images with representations of
happy couples will make you more receptive to love.

Create cozy seating
arrangements— Single chairs send a loud and clear
message to prospective suitors and spouses: Back off! If you're
looking for love, create cozy seating arrangements from love
seats, sofas, and chairs. Putting chairs at comfortable angles
to each other will signal that you're ready for a relationship. |

| |
Treat
yourself to sensual bedding— That old ratty pillow
from college and those serviceable sheets aren't doing your
sex life any favors. Go ahead and splurge on pillows, blankets,
and sheets that invite you to linger in bed. |
| |
Downsize
from a King to a Queen — Sleeping on a huge mattress
won't cultivate intimacy. Invest in a comfortable queen-sized
bed if you'd like to find the love of your life. If you simply
can't make the switch, make sure to sleep on patterned sheets
to add some zest to your sex life. |
| |
Prepare
for company — If you are single, clear out one
of your dresser drawers, leave some empty hangers in the closet,
and keep an extra toothbrush in the bathroom (just in case!).
When you demonstrate you are willing to share your space with
someone special, your romantic prospects will soar. |
| |
Pull your bed away from the wall
—Pushing your bed against the wall effectively crowds
out any chance for lovers to enter your life. Arrange your
bed so that it has enough space to walk on either side. Before
you know it, you'll be cuddling close with someone special,
instead of hugging your pillow for comfort.

Make your
"Relationship Gua" a shrine to love —
Using a compass, find out where the South West of your home
is located. This corner of your home represents relationships
and is known as the "Relationship Gua" in Feng Shui.
Therefore, you need to keep this area intimate and inviting.
A love seat illuminated with adjustable lighting is ideal for
this special spot. |
| |
Keep
the Family at Bay — Your bedroom
represents your romantic life. Therefore, the last images you
want to see here are photos of dear old Mom and Dad. Children's
art work and toys will also undermine your sex life. Celebrate
these relationships in other areas of your household, but keep
your boudoir a private retreat. |
| |
Think
pink! — Warm colors like pink
and red can enliven your love life considerably. Soft shades
like rose or coral can attract a gentle partner who is attentive
to your needs, while bold colors like scarlet, crimson, and
burgundy will draw a passionate adventurer to your side. |
| |
Keep the television OUT of the bedroom
— Nothing kills romance like the drone of late
night television. If you have trouble falling asleep, try
unwinding by reading love poetry or romantic novels. Your
subconscious will shift accordingly, making you a virtual
love magnet.
