Feng Shui Christmas Wreaths
Feng Shui, the art of object arrangement has been hot for years now. Did you know you can make Christmas wreathes that can bring good energy to your place. Here are some ideas for some Feng Shui Friendly Christmas wreathes that can help boost good vibes during the season.
Place a wreathe around a candle placed in the center of your dining room table or on the table that is closest to the true center of your home. The center of the home means health and happiness. Buy some fake peaches, pears, cherries or apples and place them on a wreathe of juniper or pine that circles a candle. You can also buy gold or red versions of this fruit that are powdered with glitter to give the centerpiece wreath an extra festive look. According to Feng Shui lore this will bring you luck and health.
For the front door you want to choose a wreath that is in a fortuitous color which is red. If you can find an all red wreath in a Christmas store than you are well on your way. You can sometimes get wreathes made entirely of red feathers which would be very lucky in terms of feng shui. In fact you can make your own simple wreath out of red feathers by going to a millinery shop and buying a red boa (a long one made of feathers like the strippers use.) You can then wrap the boa around a circular armature to bring you good fortune. For additional blessing try decorating this type of wreathe with gold apples and golden bells. Every time you open the door the bells will ring and clear your home of any negative chi.
If you like you can make a very simple good luck wreath for your front door entirely out of bells. Gold and silver bells strung together or pinned on an armatures tied with a big red bow would be excellent Feng Shun.
If you are a performer or if you career depends on your reputation you can also make a wonderful Christmas wreath by wrapping red Christmas lights around a star shape and placing this glowing star on the Southern wall of your home. The star shape brings fame and recognition and this is doubled if you place that star on your South wall.
If you want to abide by the rules of Feng Shui then there are some wreathes that you should stay away from. An all white wreath would be said to attract bad luck in Feng Shui and by the same reasoning you should not spray your wreathes with fake snow. It is also a bad idea to make a homemade wreath that has any kind of needles or pins sticking out of it as that could also attract bad luck.
