What Is the Feng Shui Bagua?
Readers, please enjoy this guest blog post by Julie Ann Segal, author of the new Change Your Space to Change Your Life.
One of the key tools in both classical and modern Feng Shui interior design is the Bagua. The Bagua is a mapping of the nine life energy areas over the home or workspace.
The nine energies are: Abundance and Prosperity; Fame and Reputation; Love, Relationships, Marriage, and Partnerships; Family; Health; Children and Creativity; Wisdom, Knowledge, and Skills; Career and Life Path; and Helpful People and Travel.
In looking at these areas, you can see how they depict all the aspects of your life, and you can probably identify which of these aspects are not as fulfilling, abundant, or balanced as you would like them to be. Your current reality—and the reality of all inhabitants of the space—is reflected in each of these areas. This is where the use of the Bagua and Feng Shui is a powerful and transformational tool—not just to enhance your home or office—to enhance and balance your life. The Feng Shui Bagua is an accurate representation of how your life and your home go hand in hand.
Using the Bagua is not only valuable for designing your current home or workspace, but also for selecting a new home or workspace. By using the map on the blueprint of the home, work, or other space that you are choosing from, you can easily identify the one that has the best layout for the energy(ies) that you are needing and wanting to elevate.
The Feng Shui Bagua provides clarity on where to make adjustments in your physical space, as well as your inner mental space, to save you time, money, emotion, and energy. Applying the Bagua in designing or choosing your space is unlike any other method or modality and will alter your life in the direction that you are desiring.
To learn more on how to lay out the Bagua in your own space and make changes in your life, read Chapter 8 in my book, Change Your Space to Change Your Life.
