![]() Why is the front entrance so, well, front and center in Feng Shui?
Here are some clues to divining the mystery of this all important area to critically review, enhance, and improve for vibrant and nourishing Feng Shui to be attracted to your home. Our external world is full of uncertainty and Feng Shui continues to offer an elegant, nature –infused, time- tested design approach for enhancing what we do have control over, our personal environments. The front entrance of our homes establish first impressions and the first subliminal messages about you, your home, and the quality of life lived at that home. The repetitive subliminal messages of our front entrances reinforce either an uplifting or draining energy. The design system of Feng Shui stems from the ancient philosophy of the TAO meaning everything is inter-connected, so that naturally, our living spaces especially influence us far more than westerners may realize. As you preview your elegant front yard gazing upon the front entrance, here’s a checklist to help you prioritize and purge the negative to attract auspiciousness to your home and own the front entrance energy flowing towards your home. Start with bagging up and disposing any debris in yard Place toys & other items in garage (organize garage for needed additional storage) Trim back plants that block pathways to door Remove all cactuses Fresh coat of red, black or dark green (best FS entrance colors) paint for front door WB40 joints of creaking doors Repair/replace rusting door jambs Update with fresh house numbers that are clearly visible to all Flank front entrance door with sized-to-scale potted Nandina evergreens or red flowers Working and clean front entrance lighting Place a colorful, cheery silk or real seasonal round wreath on your front door Broom cobwebs away from entranceway Fresh new stylish welcome mat Bubbling, to-scale water fountain to right of front door Place a grounding statute for stability in the home Soften straight walkways to front door with colorful potted plants that ease rushing chi Actually use front door daily to continually bring healthy chi into home Try to tackle a few things on this list each day or each week and be mindful to put a ‘love my home’ intention into your tasks so what’s created is a positive thread you can from that day forward, weave into the layers of what home means to you. Welcome spring with a refreshed spruced up front entrance and see what come to your door!
