~ Celebrate the Season of Change ~

The transition from late Summer into early Autumn is known as the season of "fluctuation." Fluctuation provides the opportunity for change because the universal energies are in the process of shifting. When energy is in a state of movement and flow you can use the momentum to release the things that aren't working in your life, while you open the door for new opportunities to enter. In fact, some Feng Shui Masters see fluctuation as a bridge that connects your past with your future.

Water = Winter
Wood = Spring
Fire = Summer
Earth = Fluctuation
Metal = Autumn/Fall

There are two periods of fluctuation per calendar year:

• Summer into Autumn
• Winter into Spring.

The transition (and movement) of energy also applies to your home . . .

Hallways:

Hallways are conduits for energy. They help to guide energy from one part of the house to other areas, giving a home a sense of flow. Hallways can also be used to connect, shift and, in some cases, separate the function of one space from another. For instance, the main living areas (kitchen, family room, living room) from the bedrooms.

It's important to treat hallways as rooms rather than non-rooms to keep a sense of connectivity. This can be accomplished through the use of artwork or photographs (creating a photo gallery), color, plants, area rugs/runners, furniture and windows. The secret is creating balance---Empty hallways cause energy to move too quickly and harshly which can have a destablizing effect. Hallways with too much furniture or clutter will cause the energy to become stagnant which can make you feel blocked or stuck in life.
