Every individual and culture is deeply influenced by the structures they inhabit to live and work in. A history of the world which tracks the effects of indigenous
architecture design – from the individual dwelling to community and nation planning – and all these influences over time would describe most of the scope of human experiences
This is not about what we usually think of as sacred sites or power places, those singular spots on the planet where pyramids, You-Are-here-300x199pilgrimage routes and healing waters are found. This is an invitation to look at “sacred” from a very different angle of vision: the sacred life of every person, every day and in every place, thru the reflective lens of feng shui.
In the world of interior design there are so many concepts and trends, it’s all too easy to get lost in someone else’s idea of the best way to create an interior. How does one choose what will create a home that really feels like home?
entrance (noun):
An opening, such as a door, passage, or gate, that allows access to a place.

the coming of an actor or performer onto a stage
the right, means, or opportunity to enter somewhere or be a member of an institution, society, or other body
“De-clutter, expand, de-clutter, expand, de-clutter, expand …”, these were the words used by a friend in a conversation we had a few days ago about how we move forward authentically in our lives. The “de-clutter, expand” notion captured my attention because it describes so much of the cycles in life, and a lot of what really defines the experience of living from one phase to the next.
Coherence sounds like something rather dry and academic, but what it means is an underlying unifying whole. We see it everywhere in the natural world – it’s responsible for the seasons, the beauty of the rose and regularity of the ocean tides.
Throughout our day from when our feet first touch the floor in the morning, until we climb into bed at night, we move from one place to another along various well-worn pathways throughout our homes and where we work. The degree of ease of moving from Point A to Point B adds to physical and also psychological ease of getting where we want to go to.
At the beginning of a feng shui assessment, or an annual update, I like to ask people, “What do you want? What do you want feng shui to support for you?”
What I’ve observed after working with many different homes is that the feeling of what is placed at the center, or how the center area is treated, sends out a ripple effect to the rest of the entire home.
A while back a friend sent me a card with a drawing on the front of it of a woman dressed in a business suit addressing several other business people gathered round a meeting table, her pointer aimed emphatically at a downward spiking graph behind her.
