Hey, so I was really inspired today is I was driving a home from dropping my son off at school.

I noticed there's always a gentleman that parks alongside the highway and he sells the coolest outdoor ornaments. And one of the things that I kind of want to talk about today is how to activate the external environment of your home. So activating the external environment of your home is going to activate the energy or cheat around your home. And it's going to be able to bring in a key or energy to that area of your home. So the thing I noticed was he had those really cool wind spinners.

And that is my number one tip on activating the energy outside your home is putting those little spinny things in your garden. Anything that kind of moves kind of you know has that movement to it is a really good activator of key for that area. Another way to activate the area and your external environment is to place a pool outside. So you know most people you know the average American probably doesn't have a in-ground swimming pool which are amazing. And you know my life goals are right.

I have a love a pool in my yard. But generally what we do is we'll set up a small, relatable pool for the year. We'll stick our feet in kind of splash around. My kids are big. They're not really into the tiny pools.

But we'd like to stick our feet in and you know maybe I'll have a margarita or something while I sit out there with them. But the water in the external environment is actually one of the best activators of Chi. So what are these saying from the ancient text you know one of the original Feng Shui texts says that she is dispersed or carried by the wind and it gathers at the boundaries of water. And having a large amount of water outside of your home is really the best way to activate Chi. It's actually recommended be outside of your home rather than inside of your home because it conforms to something called direct ninderic spirit meaning water that needs to be external to your space.

And that's based on a little bit of an advanced Feng Shui concept so I'm not going to go too much into that. But you really actually have to be careful where you place water at for the year. So looking at the location of where you're placing water. You want to make sure you don't place water in the north this year. The northeast.

How does the Grand Duke we don't want to do that. And also the southeast southeast is particularly negative because it has what is called that five flying star there, which is generally associated with bad luck and you know just misfortune. Another area that you generally would be able to place water would be the east. But guess what it also has an annual affliction. So if you must place water out be careful and I would consult a Feng Shui professional.

And I have something I do also I could help you place a pull out. But the west area is a okay spot for to temporarily place a pool for the summer. I would not leave the water there long term because it could potentially cause health issues. Wind Chimes. Wind Chimes are not a Feng Shui item.

There's not actually any Feng Shui item if you've listed the podcast for any length of time you'll know that I don't place any Feng Shui items out. And I don't, I just don't practice that I practice classical Feng Shui which brings Qi in from your natural environment. And but wind Chimes are a good activator because they move in the wind and of course they make that really soft. Pretty noise. So you want to make sure you're also actually cautious of where you're placing it.

Wind Chimes for the year. I place someone in the south area of my home so they can activate the good energy that is there for the year. Any sort of earth works you do outside your home digging construction all of that activates energy in a really big way especially the digging because it's disturbing the ground in that location or that sector of your home. So you do need to be careful again with ground digging and stuff like that. But it's a really good way to activate the energy or cheese to you know do some gardening move the area around.

You know and digging. But again be cautious and make sure you start on a good day using date selection. Another good way to activate the area in your external environment is just cleaning and sweeping you know generally cleaning up around the area. I talk about this also when I talk about the external environment but you want to go out and you want to make sure you're cleaning the area that's directly in front of your door your entrance. Make sure there's no stagnant to you there and just by like sweeping shaking the rugs out and all that that activates and brings in a good energy.

Just a quick reminder that a date selection is very important in Feng Shui and if you want to learn more about date selection for like renovations activating an area things like that.
