For most people, January is a big month. Fuelled by strong determination to follow a fresh new direction in life, any good info that helps one get closer to the desired goals is welcomed.

In feng shui, the best direction is the one where you flow with the cosmic/universal energy, rather than against it. This means there are days and times to do things, and then there are days and times when it is better to wait.

So, we are continuing the already established tradition of checking the monthly feng shui almanac for advice on best dates for any major (or even minor, if you so desire) activities ? from starting a new job to moving houses or placing your feng shui cures.

As I usually do not select the best days by checking the feng shui almanac, I direct you to an on-line source that offers good feng shui info.

If you are following the flying stars school of feng shui, January 2013 is also the time when you are getting ready to apply your annual 2013 feng shui cures for home or office.

In 2013, the Chinese New Year (Lunar New Year) will be celebrated on February 10, 2013, the annual feng shui cures are placed on the Solar Chinese New Year ? the beginning of Spring ? which in 2013 is on February 4th. So, you can sure start preparing your 2013 annual feng shui cures in January.

That makes it for one very busy month, doesn?t it?

As you are preparing your home (or office) for 2013 energies with new feng shui cures (which should be in place by February 4, 2013), do not forget to look at one of the main feng shui principles ? the flow of Chi, or energy.

Is the Chi running smoothly in your place? Is it nourishing your home (or office); or is it mostly ignoring it on its way out?

Be sure you know how to attract strong Chi into your home or office, and then, equally important, be sure you know how to make the best of the incoming Chi.

Easy feng shui tips for a good energy flow in your home

By Rodika Tchi, About.com Guide

With all the emphasis on good Chi for good feng shui, it is really important to get into the habit of regularly checking the energy flow in your home. Be especially mindful about creating a good flow of Chi whenever you are redecorating, renovating, or just want to reposition the existing furniture for better feng shui.

One of the basic ways to check the energy flow in your home is to imagine Chi, or energy, as water. If water where to flow into your home from the main door, where would it stagnate?

Would the water harmoniously and smoothly flow to all areas of your space, gently refreshing them, or would it rush right out the back door?

Would it encounter blockages as soon as it enters your home, such as, for example, a wall or a closet facing (and in very close proximity to) the main door?

Other feng shui scenarios that can contribute to the leakage of Chi are:

Be sure to position your furniture in a way that allows for a smooth flow to all areas of your home and avoid any blockages and stagnant areas, such as stuffed closets, for example, that create bad feng shui energy, or si chi.

Learn how to use fountains, mirrors, art, wall murals, colors, and many other popular feng shui cures to improve the flow of Chi and benefit from a good, healthy energy in your home.

Easy feng shui tips to remedy the direct alignment of doors in your home

By Rodika Tchi, About.com Guide

One of the most frequent feng shui questions I receive is about the alignment of doors (both interior and exterior) and the influence of such door alignment on the feng shui energy of your home. The topic of doors alignment in feng shui has also been briefly discussed in the feng shui forum. As this is a concern with numerous houses, let?s look into some easy feng shui solutions.

First, let?s see why the direct alignment of two or more doors is considered bad feng shui. As feng shui is all about creating a balanced and harmonious flow of energy in your home, the direct alignment of two or more doors will create a harsh quality of feng shui energy resembling Sha Chi.

Imagine Chi, or energy, as water flowing into your space. You will see that water will rush very fast through the two or more directly aligned doors without actually slowing down and nourishing the space.

It is especially important to avoid a direct alignment of the front door with the back door. The reason you want to avoid this situation is because all good feng shui energy coming through the main door will easily escape through the back door without having a chance to circulate and nourish your home. Take this into consideration when you plan to renovate or remodel your home.

Your house needs good energy just like you need good quality air. It is important to be aware of the quality of feng shui energy created by your floor plan, and see what you can do to create better energy.

Now, what easy feng shui solutions are available to you if you live in a house with a direct alignment of doors? Depending on your floor plan, your budget and your decor style, here are some practical feng shui tips:

• Place a round table in the direct pathway of energy. This will redirect the energy and slow it down. A vase with fresh flowers on the table will improve the energy even further.

• Work with color to change the relationship between doors. Choose the right feng shui color for the area and strengthen one door more than the other. This will change the relationship between the two directly aligned doors and slow down the energy.

• Place a plant with a strong presence in the direct pathway of energy. The feng shui use of a plant, ideally tall and wide, in a visually strong pot, will achieve the similar effect of redirecting the energy.

• Reposition the existing furniture pieces to create a redirection of flow. If there is enough space in between the directly aligned doors, create a nice grouping, or a conversation area in the direct pathway. Ground the energy even more with a colorful rug.

Basically, what you need to do is redirect and soften the harsh energy flow created by two or more directly aligned doors. Going back to the feng shui energy flow check-up where you visualize Chi, or energy, as water, think of what would slow down and redirect the flow of water. Experiment till you find what works best for you.

Be sure to choose a way that is esthetically pleasing and works for you on a practical level. Improving the feng shui energy in your home with items appropriate for your decor and lifestyle is the best and most powerful application of feng shui. You just have to know how to use what you have.

Keep learning about feng shui, it is a fascinating and life-changing body of knowledge.

Question: Why is a Mirror Facing the Main Door Bad Feng Shui?

Answer: Mirrors are called the aspirin of feng shui for a good reason. With the proper placement of mirrors, you can considerably shift the feng shui energy flow and create better feng shui in a home or office.

A mirror facing the main door is one of the two big taboos in feng shui (second one being a mirror facing a bed.)

The reason it is not recommended to have a mirror facing the main door is because the mirror pushes away all the good feng shui energy that is about to enter the house.

In feng shui it is considered that the house absorbs energy (Chi) through the main door, similar to a human face absorbing nutrition through the mouth. This is why the main door is often called the mouth of a house in feng shui.

Distance will only slightly change the effect of the mirror facing the main door, so if you have a mirror directly facing the main door, best feng shui advice is to remove it.

If you cannot remove the mirror, for example if the mirror is built-in and you are renting the place, or if you have mirrored closet doors facing the main door, then you have to look for creative solutions.

Feng shui always works best when it is applied in a creative and subtle way. So, cover the mirror with some creative applique, for example, or paint over it with a washable paint in a great color.

Other suitable feng shui solutions:

• Have a lush, big plant in front of the mirror.

• Tastefully hang a suitable size piece of art over the mirror, be absolutely sure it looks good.

• Have a tall enough piece of furniture centered on the mirrored wall. Again, you have to be sure it looks good.

• Have applique, or decorative stickers on the mirror (Ikea has some great wall or mirror stickers.)

Look for creative ideas to solve your problems, and you will attract good feng shui.
