Feng Shui for Your Pet
Pets can generate wonderful Feng Shui, but did you also know they are affected by your home’s environment? If you live with a furry, feathery or fuzzy creature, read the following tips to help you and your pets live in harmony.
Do get a pet if you feel tired, depressed or stuck in a rut. Animals represent fire energy. Adding fire energy will make you more passionate about life. If you travel a lot, you can always get a low-maintenance pet, like a reptile or fish. Aquatic animals can live in a fish tank and are ideal for your prosperity sector (the far left corner of your home). Their gentle movement will stimulate new income.
Don’t neglect your pets. When you don’t feed, bathe and nurture your pet properly, your Feng Shui will suffer. A fish tank with dirty, stagnant water can result in financial loss. A dog with a matted coat may prompt you to get overlooked for a promotion. An overweight cat may drive away romance. You may not realize it, but the way you treat people, pets and plants has bearing on your own self-image.
Do set aside an area for your pet. Whether it’s a cage, bed or cushion, this will honor your pet in a way that benefits the whole household. Make sure your pet’s area is clean and well maintained. The best spots for an animal are the near left corner or the center portion of the far wall of your home. When you designate a special spot for your animals, you might find that you are better recognized for your own talents and contributions.
Don’t let your pets sleep on your bed. This can put a real damper on your love life and create intimacy problems for you. Many animal lovers drive romance from their doors by putting their pets first in all circumstances. When it comes to relationships, people should come before pets. That doesn’t mean you should get rid of your cat or dog if you meet someone who dislikes animals, but it does mean that you shouldn’t treat your pet like a substitute lover or child.
