Can Flowering Trees Be Bad Feng Shui??

Hey guys welcome to the Learn Feng Shui podcast where you'll Learn Feng Shui from a classical point of view taking out the myth and Superstition if you like weekly tips as well as fun folklore Tales you'll enjoy learning funu with me hey guys today I wanted to talk a little bit about flowering trees and some things like that um outside your home so the theory says that if you plant you a certain flowering trees in certain areas outside your home that you will activate what is called The house's um Peach Blossom or um a romance flower and so I what happens is that if you negatively um activate this area it's said that it can cause problems with adultery in the home and I thought this was a good juicy topic to kind of look at um so this is one of the ones that I it kind of borderlines on Superstition for me I don't know um previously in other podcasts and videos I've made I always address the fact that you know putting plants out you don't have to be worried about it um most plants don't activate an area unless you're dealing with something like a a plant that sits in water like maybe like a lotus flower or bamboo or sitting in a large um amount of water and so usually that's I've used this to act an area before um more specifically areas that do correspond with what is known as a romance flower or a peach blossom and so I'm going to kind of get into where those areas are in a minute but um again I'm always open to learning new things and so I've been taking some classes this summer with a master in um Singapore and this is one of the things that he taught us um and I just thought I would share it because I found it interesting so I'm always open to like learning new things and and being open um I will say as a consultant um it does take some testing out and so it'll be one of the things that I'll really have to kind of pay attention to now um but as the uh you know each case presents itself and so you don't always get to do every funu formula or test every Theory um as a consultant because you know every home is different and every home requires a different amount of like calculations and um formulas that can be applied to it and you know and that's based on a lot of different factors and so if somebody doesn't have a flowering tree in the area that I'm you know looking at and they haven't had a problem with adultery in their home there's really no way for me to gauge it and so it'll definitely be something that I'm opened to um kind of researching and finding out just as I have this Funway Journey so if you have experienced um an issue in your home and you feel like uh hey I have this flowering tree in the specific area um I I would like to talk to you so you could you could email me and I I'll put every all the links below um yeah I really would like to include it in some case studies so um let's get to the specifics of it in this episode and um the second part is going to be um a folklore tale so let's get to the first assignment all right guys so to kind of clarify and help you understand uh when your house would be affected I'm going to try and explain a little bit of funu theory to you okay so some of you may know or you may have been familiar with the concept of what is called the 24 mountains within funu and it's just a template that's laid over your space and it has 24 separate sectors on there so most people know um you know the eight directions within their home so there you know they know north south east west um this breaks it down a little bit further so um what happens is you know you have your north south east and west you know Southwest Southeast Northeast Northwest but it is actually broken down into three um sub sectors within the direction so you'll end up with something labeled like North one North 2 and North 3 um I do have a really good blog uh post on my website which I'll link to and I do have a video it was one of the uh workshops that I did earlier this year where I talked about finding the animal signs within your home um if you would like a free floor plan mapping please message me um which I'll put a link below all you have to seriously do is upload a floor plan I'll stick my template over it and I'll be like here's the sub sectors it's super easy okay um but for this all you have to know is that um as a function way consultant when when uh anyone comes to your home you know a funu professional comes to your home um it's one of the first things I do is measure the direction your house faces it the direction your house faces tells a lot about the type of Cheer Energy that's coming into your home and when your um house is directly facing one of the sub sectors that is associated with an animal sign um which it'll just be like a small 15 degree increment um that is associated with that animal sign so you have your animal signs and in between that you have all the elements okay so the animal signs are called the Earth branches and the um elements you know you'll have all the five elements in N polarity will be labeled um and they're called The Heavenly stems so if your house faces a Heavenly stem it is said that this uh peach blossom star the the romance flower star is not uh impactful on your home so it actually depends on what you know degree your house faces if it's associated with one of the animal signs you know if it's in the degree with one of the animal signs that means your house is more likely to be impacted and so for for example my house faces around 180° so that is labeled as South to and that is associated with the animal sign of the horse so if it were in the sub sector of South 1 or South 3 then it would be considered you know one of the fire elements but you know sitting directly with that you know degree the type of energy that I'm getting it's more impactful and it faces what is called the Earth Branch so hopefully that made sense and you're still awake so if your house faces the animal sign of pig rabbit or goat that that means that the rat is the spot in your home you want to avoid placing a flowering tree um and you want to actually avoid placing water in that spot too there's other areas you can use but you want to avoid the animal sign that's associated with rat if your house faces snake rooster or Ox you want to avoid the flowering trees in the South two area so that would be the area associated with the horse if your house faces the tiger horse or dog that means you don't want to have a flowering tree in the area that's associated with the rabbit which would be East if your house faces a rat dragon or monkey that means that you don't want to have a flowering tree in the areas associated with rooster so that would be West too so again it's said to not have water or plant a flowering tree in one of these areas um and the specific examples that were given were pomegranate trees peach trees plum trees cherry blossom trees which I have thankfully it is not in the North cuz that would be I think the romance area um and an almond tree but I've also heard like no banana trees and I think one of the funnier things that I heard like they were saying don't plant a Chili Peppers um in in the area because if you do that means um the wife will be like you know like spicy she'll be having you know like a bad temper and um all I could think of was that I had planted Jalapenos in my yard this year and I had a lot of them come out and I think that's kind of funny but um again there weren't in my uh romance flower areas so um maybe my husband dodged a bullet on that one so one other thing that I wanted to kind of add is that um these trees aren't always bad again just really for a rule of thumb to make it easy on yourself unless you know it's really specifically a concern is to really just avoid putting trees in the north south and east west of your home you know there's other areas you could plant the trees um you don't want to put like a f a fountain or a water Pond right in these areas um it is said though one one thing I was a little bit unclear on is there is times that it's actually very positive for your home and act it could actually mean that your um children can have a chance to get married that year and so um you know that that one was a little bit unclear to me in exactly uh when it was positive and when it was negative a lot of times with fun um Mo well most of the time um when you look at your external um environment so look at where sharp roof lines are in relation to your home look at where like light poles you know power lines um those 5G Towers radio towers if you have one of those in closer proximity to your home that is the time you'll usually get a negative impact from uh the bad function way in that area um because what happens is a bad Flying Star will come in or more negative energy will come in and there's a bad external feature and that therefore impacts your home and makes that area of your home negative even when it had never been negative before so again just a theory on the trees um and yeah always look for bad external features uh before you you know try to activate areas of your home again if you place a fountain out or you know but even the actively digging and planting a tree definitely activates an area because you're groundbreaking and breaking up the Earth you know and so anytime you do that you do want to consult a fun professional have them do some date selection things have them um you know look at what area you're putting things in and um and you should have a easy you know easy go of it so again you don't have to be terrified of flowering trees or flowering bushes um I put a lovely flower garden up this year and um I was really happy with the way it came out and I really feel like it impacted my space and held the China in a really posi POS way I love seeing all the butterflies and everything come and visit so again don't be paranoid about it um but uh just avoid planting trees in um north south and east and west so for today's folklore tale I'm going to be reading from Chinese fairy tales and legends and and this book again is by Richard wellham and Frederick Martins and it will be uh you know referenced and linked below today's story is called the flower elves and what I really like about this book is that they actually include um you know a little bit of um the history or a little bit of like you know the symbolism and stuff like that um before or after each story it'll have a little side note and this here is a to unlock the heavy symbolism of this Fable it might help to knowe that the Willow and Peach both represent immortality and the plum means renewal and pomegranate promises Prosperity so today is going to be a story called The Flower elves once upon a time there was a scholar who lived retired from the world in order to gain hidden wisdom he lived alone in a secret place all about his little house in which he dwelt he planted every kind of flower bamboo and other trees there his house lay quite concealed in its thick Grove of flowers with only him and a boy servant who dwelt in a separate Hut and carried out his orders he was not allowed to appear before his master unless he was summoned The Scholar loved his flowers as he did himself never did he set foot beyond the boundaries of his garden it chanced that once there was a lovely spring evening it chance that once came a lovely spring evening flowers and trees stood in full bloom and a fresh Breeze was blowing the moon Shone clearly and the scholar sat over his goblet grateful for the gift of Life suddenly he saw a maiden in dark garments come tripping in the Moonlight she made a deep ctsy greeted him and said I am your neighbor we are in the company of young Maids who are on our way to visit the 18 ants we would like to rest in this court for a while and ask your permission to do so the scholar saw that this was something quite uncommon and he gladly gave his consent the maiden thanked him and went away but in a short time she brought back a whole crowd of mates carrying flowers and Willow branches they all greeted the SK and they were Charming with delicate and slender uh features and they were very graceful when they moved their sleeves uh exhaled a delightful fragrance and there is no fragrance known to human world to compare it with the scholar invited them to sit down for a while and then he asked whom have I really have the honor of entertaining have you come from the lady of the castle in the moon or the Jade spring of the Queen Mother of the West how could we claim such a high descent said the maiden in green with a smile my name is salex I'm GNA try and pronounce these names guys then she presented another clad in white and said this is the mistress prora the one in Rose is perc persa and finally in the dark red gown this is Puna we are all sisters and we want to visit the 18 zepher ants today the moon shines so beautifully this evening and it is so a Charming here in your garden we are most grateful to you for taking pity on us yes yes said the scholar embarrassed suddenly the sober Cloud servant announced the Zephyr ants have already arrived at once the girls Rose and went to the door to meet them we were just about to visit you ants they said smiling this gentleman here has just invited us to sit for a moment what a pleasant Co coincidence that you ants have come to this is such a lovely night that we must drink the Goblet of nectar in honor of you they ordered the servant to bring what was needed may we sit down here asked the ants the Master of the House is most kind replied the maids and the spot is quiet and hidden when they presented the ants to The Scholar he spoke kindly words to the 18 ants they had somewhat careless Airy Manner and their words fairly gushed out and from them came a frosty chill so um I will say I'm reading this verbatim and um I think in the translation it's just very literal so I'm I'll try to interpret a little bit um uh apparently they it seemed like they kind of were dismissive and a little bit uh mean to him so meanwhile the servant had already brought up a table and chairs and the 18 ants sat in the upper end of the board and the maids followed the scholar sat down with him at the lowest place soon the entire table was covered with delicious foods magnificent fruits and the goblets were filled with a fragrant nectar these were Delights such as the world of man has never known the moon shined brightly and the flowers exhaled intoxicating fragrances after they were shared uh food and drink the Mage Rose danced and sung and the sound of their singing echoed sweetly through the falling gloam and their dance uh was like butterflies fluttering about the flowers The Scholar no longer knew whether he was in heaven or on Earth when the dance had ended the girl sat down at the table again and drank to the health of the ants in flowering nectar The Scholar too was remembered with a toast to which he replied wellt phrases but the 18 ants were somewhat careless one of them raised a goblet accidentally poured some Nector around pun's dress punika was a young and fiery and very neat young woman and seeing the spot on her red dress she stood up very angrily and said you are very careless my other sister sisters may be afraid of you but I am not this angered the ants too who said how dare you young I don't know what this word is it says how dare you young chit I don't know uh insult Us in such a man maybe it's supposed to be a a slur there or bad word I don't know with all of that they gathered their garments and Rose all the maids crowded about them and said Puna is so young and unexperienced experienced you must not bear her any ill will tomorrow she shall go uh to you switch in hand and receive her punishment but the 18 ants would not listen and left and thereupon the maids also said farewell and they scattered among the flower beds and disappeared the scholars have for a long time lost in his dreams and longing we live in your garden they told him every year we have been tormented with naughty wins not sure what what that means so we have always asked the 18 ants to protect us but yesterday a Punic insulted them and now we fear no one will help us anymore we know that you have always been well disposed towards us and we are heartily grateful and now we have a great favor to ask that every New Year's Day you make a small Scarlet flag paint the Sun and the Moon and the five planets on it and set it up in the eastern part of the garden then we sisters will be left in peace and we will be protected from all evil but since New Year's Day has passed for this year we beg you to set up a flag on the 21st of this month for the East Wind is coming and the flag will protect us against him so I'm just going to say it if they're scared of the wind they probably live here in West Texas with me cuz I'm scared of this wi too it's crazy y'all um it'll uproot trees is crazy okay so the scholar readily promised to do as they wished and the maids all said with their single voice we thank you for your kindness and we will repay it then they departed with a sweet fragrance and it filled the entire Garden The Scholar made the red flag and early in the morning of the day in question the East Wind really did begin to blow and he quickly set it up in the garden s suddenly a windstorm broke out one that caused the forest to bend and broke the trees but only the flowers in his garden did not move the scholar noticed that asix was the willow prora was the plum persa was the peach and the Saucy punika was the pomegranate who a powerful blossoms the wind cannot tear the 18 Zephyr ants however were the spirits of the wind and in the evening the flower elves all came and brought the skolar radiant flowers as gifts of thanks you saved us they said and we will never have uh anything else to worry about if you eat these flowers you will live long and avoid old age and if you in turn will protect us every year then we sisters too will live long The Scholar did as they told him and ate the flowers and uh his figure changed and he grew young again just like the Youth of 20 and in the course of time he attained hidden wisdom and was placed Among The Immortals to support the podcast be
