5 Feng Shui Tips to Start New Year With Good Luck
From CW6 San Diego Living
Purge yourself and your home of all the bad energy of last year with simple to follow Feng Shui tips from Jessie Kim, a third-generation certified Feng Shui consultant known as Ms. Feng Shui. Start the new year with a clean slate and an open door to welcome a happy and healthy New Year.
Here are 5 tips from Ms. Feng Shui to bring in good “luck” and good energy into your life for the new year and say good riddance to last year.
1. Buy New Shoes! – Who doesn’t need an excuse to buy a new pair of shoes? Get yourself a new pair of shoes or if your budget won’t allow it, clean your shoes, and walk into the new year with clean new energy and leave last year behind.
2. Attract Wealth – Buy a new wallet to start off the new year and make sure to “hide” a nice clean $50 bill or $100 bill in your wallet to start attracting more money into your wallet. Clear out your purse and wallet! Pull out all the receipts, coupons, trash, toys, candy wrappers, etc. This is where you will be keeping your wealth, so don’t start with bills and receipts or things from the past. Leave last year’s receipts in the “past” as this will also give you a head start in organizing for your tax returns.
3. Create Positive Energy In Your Home – Move at least 9 things that haven’t been moved around your house in the past year. This will stir up positive energy, and while you’re at it, make sure to dust and vacuum those items you haven’t touched in a whole year.
4. Clean Away Last Year’s Bad Vibes – Make sure to dust, vacuum and wipe down all the dirt out of your home before you welcome in next year as well as wash your sheets and blankets. You want to start with no “dirt” from last year.
5. Move Forward – Buy a new watch, as watches are always moving forward. Buying a new watch means bringing in new and active energy into your life. If someone gifts you a watch, give them a coin or a dollar so you are “buying” the watch from them. You never want to gift someone a watch, especially to elders, as this means they are running out of time.

Celebrate the Year of the Pig with a new piggy bank
By BONNIE MCCARTHY

When the Chinese Lunar New Year begins on Feb. 5, it will usher in the Year of the Pig, the last sign of the 12-year Chinese zodiac cycle and according to Jessie Kim, founder of Los Angeles-based Ms. Feng Shui, an auspicious year for reflecting on the past and preparing for the future.
“This is the perfect time to carry out an in-depth review of the past year and build energy for the next, new cycle in 2020,” said Kim.
It is also believed to be a lucky lunar cycle inclined to bring prosperity and wealth.
“Throughout the year of the Earth Pig, the energy is joyous,” said Kim, “but we need to be more conscious of money management. It’s a good year to keep our friends and family close, and a good time to put an end to any toxic relationships.”
Quick primer: Unlike the 12 zodiac signs in Western astrology that correspond to the month of your birth, Chinese zodiac signs are instead assigned to the year.
People born in the Year of the Pig (1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019) are believed to blessed with a winning personality and good fortune.
Kim said people born under this sign are also usually hard-working, realistic types who get things done with energy and enthusiasm.
Think: work hard, play hard.
To celebrate the piggy promises of the year ahead we have rounded up a passel of swine-inspired style that includes everything from salt and pepper shakers and a pig-shaped credenza to cups, bowls and a charcuterie platter aimed at helping your home go hog wild.
Go ahead, pig out.

Feng Shui Your Holiday Gathering
You may cringe when you think of the arguments that often arise during family gatherings like Christmas. But, know that such holiday events can actually be harmonious.
Here are my simple tips on adding Feng Shui to your home and table for balance and happiness this holiday season.
Power Positions
When family and friends visit you for several days over the holidays, remember not to give up your “power positions.” Your power positions include the master bedroom and any rooms in the back part of the house. By maintaining your power position, you can keep guests from overstaying their welcome or getting overly involved in your life.
You may have to deal with this creatively if your typical guest room is in the back of the house. In this situation, try to swap out the guest room for the home office. Or set up an inviting area that can be used as a temporary guest room toward the front of the home, making sure guests feel welcome.
Table Setting
When setting the table, don’t let guests sit at the head of the table, Rather, always the head of the household should sit there.
Pull out your fancy china since you are gathering with family and friends who are your most prized “possessions.” This is not the time to use paper plates.
Furniture and Decorations
When arranging furniture and decorations, make sure that no sharp corners (poison arrows) point where people sit. Round or oval tables are best to avoid bad energy.
Keep heavy decorative items below the level of people’s heads. Having them high up can create nervous energy and encourage heavy conversations. With all of the recent news, it would probably be best to avoid heavy conversations!
Put all these tips to use and watch your holiday become a lot more harmonious!

Feng Shui Secrets: Fixing Mistakes for Better Feng Shui in the Home
Your home should be your sanctuary. It is a place to escape the daily grind that life brings and relax while spending time with family in a positive space with positive energy. If this is not the case and the only thing you have to look forward to when getting home from work is more conflict, it’s time to make some changes.
Did you know it’s possible for Feng Shui challenges in your home to provoke and strengthen the negative energy of arguments. In fact, bad Feng Shui can attract conflict. By knowing the Feng Shui mistakes in your home, you have the power to find solutions to help calm and balance the energy. Read on to learn more about common Feng Shui mistakes and tips on how to fix them.
Energy Coming In
- Negative Outside Feng Shui: Before you even enter your home, the Feng Shui energy outside your home is important for many reasons. Think of this as the area where the energy which flows into your home comes from. You want it to be vibrant, healthy energy coming in, so it’s important to keep it clutter-free and looking nice. Keep the plants, trees, and grass trimmed and neat. If you’d like to learn more about outside Feng Shui check out our blog titled, The Importance of Home Maintenance in Feng Shui.
- Feng Shui Problems in the Entryway: A lot like the outside, the main entryway of your home determines the quality of energy that comes in. We’re going for bringing in vibrant, fun, healthy, and nourishing energy. The entryway is important for good Feng Shui. It should be neat, clean, and clutter-free. You know how the whole family’s shoes are piled near the door? This is the clutter we’re talking about. Need more tips about decluttering your space? Check out this blog, Declutter to Feng Shui Your Space!
Inside the Home
- Clearing the Negative Energy from Your Space: Avoid keeping the negative energy brought on by negative experiences, or a bad history in a home, by clearing the energy. This is a Feng Shui must, whether you do it before moving in, once a week, or once a month. The good news is there are so many ways to make this happen from clearing the clutter, to burning incense, to opening the windows. Every blog I write has something to teach about keeping the positive energy, but here are a couple to start: Five Tips to Invigorate Your Space Today and Fragrant Feng Shui.
- Give the Basement, Garage, and Attic Some Much Needed TLC: Speaking of clearing the clutter, check the basement, garage, and attic while you’re at it! Just because you don’t spend a lot of time in these areas doesn’t mean they can’t affect your Feng Shui. Read our blog, mentioned above, on decluttering and get to work. You’ll be amazed at what a huge difference it makes on your inner state of mind.
- Chaos in the Bedroom: This is a cause of sleepless nights for sure. Everything makes a difference: from bedroom decor, to electronics, to having plants in the room where you sleep. Everyone knows the price of sleepless nights on your energy, work, attitude, and many other things. Simply put, sleep is critical and having the tools to Feng Shui Your Sleep is just as important.
Common Mistakes in the Bagua Areas
In Feng Shui, the Bagua is a sort of energy map of your space. So, specific areas of your home are connected to specific areas of your life. If you’ve never looked at a Bagua map before, now’s a great time. You can read all about the Bagua on my website. The following is a list of some common mistakes in certain bagua areas of the home.
- A Stressed-Out Love Area: In the Feng Shui Bagua there is an area associated with the energy of love and relationships. Like all areas of your home, the love and relationship area needs to be treated well with the right colors, materials, and images. Learn more about the Love & Relationship Corner and start reaping the rewards of strong relationships.
- A Non-Existent Money Area: Wondering why you’re always broke and have a hard time keeping your finances in order? Taking care of the Feng Shui in this area of the Bagua can greatly enhance your financial future. Want to know more about this area? Learn more about the Wealth & Prosperity Corner.
- An Unhealthy Health Area: Right at the center of the Bagua map, and touching every other area of the home, is the Health Area. The well-being of you and your family is connected to the state of energy in this area. The last thing you want here is the heavy, stagnant energy that clutter holds. Learn how to create vibrant energy in this space by reading our blog, Health: Live Life Without Sickness or read about the Health Area of the bagua.
