11 May 26 So there I was talking today with a girlfriend about houses and Feng Shui. Mostly because when you are Tiny house-ing it and living out of a suitcase, it is a very popular subject. Anyway, I had mentioned this house was calling me. I had seen it about 4 ish months ago, it wasn't even on the market, but the Real Estate guy said, I think this is what you are looking for... Well, I (we were in separate cars) drove up, and it literally took my breath away. Like when I haven't seen Liam in ages, this house sucker-punched me in my DNA. Called me home, wrung me out, then breathed life back into me. Due to multiple reasons like: no shedding/garaging, paddocks not how I want, a bit of land out front which is of no fucking use to anyone and going to be a pain in the ass to keep, and one of us having ideals of 2020 house market highs and the other one being financially right-here-right-now-physically-in-my-account delusional, it was a no-go. Until last weekend, when I was looking at another *sigh* Open Home. I'm not even going to mention the Open Home. However, I found myself driving down this street, looking for this house, which you can't see from the road, nor could I remember it's exact address. I was muttering to myself, reminding myself of market ideals and delusions, yet I kept hearing this house call. So I kept on driving...and driving...and just when I thought I would stop and turn around, there it was. So I drove down the driveway of the house that I don't own, ...and again, I found myself, not-in-this-place-but-right-in-this-place Energy. Thinking: the land is good, and big, lots of space, I can put a shed here, garden there, Mummas bear would be happy here, Cappy (with a little shelter) would be happy there, possibly I could keep the mini's here... And here I am, same but different, and I swear to Spirit this house is calling me as if we belong to each other. As if it won't let anyone else in, 'cause it's waiting and holding itself for us. I felt like this in our previous home - No, no, no, absolutely fucking not.... then I kept seeing Cappy standing on the hill by the French Doors, and I knew we would be ok. I see the same thing here. It is going to need a little bit of work to make it perfect for us, but I can see us here. Literally and physically. I can see my stuff in there. Hear the conversations of my friends. Picture me working. Anyhou, enough about me, we need to stop talking about this, because whatever happens next is Spirits Will. But while we're waiting though, here are my top 3 Feng Shui tips for you: 1) Mountains/hills need to be behind you, not in front of you. Behind is protection - Physically, Spiritually, Financially and Emotionally, while In-front brings feelings of over-whelmedness, exhaustion and never ending problems in those same areas. 2) Water in front, not behind the house. In front brings in Abundance on a financial and emotional level, behind means a lack-of. 3) Know your houses history. If the four couples before you have ended up in Divorce court, you'll be the fifth. Guaranteed. ...but the same goes for happy families with an abundance of love and money. Pick your Feng Shui battles, baby. Love always, T and Spirit, and dino_the_dinosaur_kettle and the tribe. ** I respect the Elders of the Land where I work, live, laugh, love and play - Past, Present and Future.
