I named this blogspot "fengshui-to-go", so I could share a few things with you; show you a few paintings to soothe and relax you and maybe even entertain you. I know that we look out at the world and wonder how to proceed, how to go about this process referred to as life.

In learning my craft, I came to know my inner artist, and then I came to know that we are all "inner artists". We are creative beings dealing in thoughtforms; encoded energy. We are constantly thoughtforming, creating aspects of our lives...and therein lies the rub.

Movies and tv entertain us, but they also entrain us, offering models of life expression. We sit down with popcorn in front of a screen and tune in to a brief, but total submersion into another flavor of reality. Of course, we come back to our own life when the theatrics end, but we absorbed the drama, we took it into our imagination. And duality marches on. Now we use various clips to fuel our next steps forward. The movie, for example, is drawn on a timeline of consequences, and if the movie works, we are left with a new nuance of imperative; a sharpening of direction. We have been mesmerized. We can wash off the butter from popcorn, but our fictional focus goes into the mix. Within the movie we are further conditioned to thrive on embedded elements like urgency. "Everything depends on it". We steel ourselves to ward off attacks. This all to the good, if you want your "creation" to run ahead of you, a virtual trainwreck.

In these instances, you set yourself up. You make an equation of "conditional" circumstances. Such "adventures" can be stimulating if you are alert to the "process" and utilizing it to your own avails. The problem in adopting a script that enchants you is your lack of thoroughness. Beneath it all, if you don't believe in your own happy ending, you really are changing the script. There's another element underneath; a subplot.

And so, from a "virtual" flow of images and sounds, we assemble a slideshow and then the "world" seems to happen to us. We may not question the actual process... that act of consciousness that got us there. And it may not be important that we do. What is important, is that the input is, more often than not, haphazard, unexamined material, that we take in and blend.

That is why Feng Shui is a gift to us. Once you realize that your perception shapes your reality, you can begin to be "intentional". You can design your life. You can take the world input and filter it, through affirmations.

But where to start?
Stepping back, you can see the primary "supports" to your picture, such as your home, your relationships, your "employment" of energy. Feng Shui helps us harmonize the elements of your life, not necessarily change them outright.

And, just as an artist goes to a resource file to breathe in inspiration, so the inner artist has all of the images and sound needed for drama, but they are often old mental templates. "Ah, gee! What I have to go through...", "Why does this always happen to me?", "It can't be very good, if it's that easy!" Life must always be a morality play. There are millions of such rejoinders to remind us that Life is not supposed to be good or fun or lovely. These old mental templates self-activate, but with clearing, you begin to see these subprograms that are running in the background and in recognizing these "limiters", they lose their power. Again, though, you have to know they are there.

So, Feng Shui clearing is to re-establish your true autonomy and ready your canvas. You are always coloring on your canvas. You are sketching out your own ideas about yourself. Like the light and dark interplay of chiaroscuro, you can only see the design on the paper because of the contrasting tones. You are limiting your own ideas about yourself, in order to understand and/or appreciate what I AM. At some level, keeping your perspective, your judgment, has value as an exercise in polarity. Your position lets you experience emotional depths. Tasting the depths of tragedy has given birth to more than one great opera. You're on one side and somebody else is on the other. Duality has its own set of rewards, but it also has pain and, given a choice, you might decide to forego it.

Perhaps even more important, on a subliminal level when your mental flow hits a "boulder", you experience a "divided" sense, as part of your attention splits off to deal with an unresolved issue. So to unify yourself, you clear unresolved energy; your misperceptions...first and foremost...about life, itself. It is practical. When you clear unproductive mental patterns -- the clutter -- you feel uplift. Now there is wind in your sails. You are less inclined to predict or project misery. You begin to attract happy "coincidences". And soon you find you really are the one in control. You find new energy and you experience glimpses of joy.
