Feng Shui & Fertility
|
|
There are many factors in our surroundings that can affect our
health and well being in both a positive and/or negative way. More
specifically, there are several areas of Feng Shui that can be explored when
there are fertility issues. In some cases there are medical
conditions that have been diagnosed however there are also many instances where
the medical profession has found nothing wrong and the source of infertility
remains a mystery.
Regardless of whether you are treating fertility using natural methods such
as nutrition or more radical methods such as fertility drugs or in vitro
fertilization, Feng Shui can support and increase the results of whatever
action is already being taken. There are many important environmental
factors to consider especially if you are experiencing any type of health
problems.
Geopathic Stress (GS) is a naturally occurring energetic earth line that is
toxic to many life forms including humans. These lines form a grid like
pattern and their intensity is increased at crossing points. It is very common
for someone sleeping on a GS line to experience compromised sleep quality,
leading to a lowered immune system, and eventually manifesting into health
problems. More specifically, in most cases this will cause decreased
fertility and an increased potential for miscarriage.
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) are manmade and result from the presence of
electricity in our environment. Like GS, EMF also effects quality of
sleep, immune system, etc. Our bodies carry an electric current which is
DC or direct current while our homes electrical systems and appliances use AC
or alternating current. These two types of current are not compatible as
you will have experienced if you ever plugged a battery driven device into an
electrical outlet. The resulting smoke, sparks, and inability to operate
are similar to how our bodies react to sleeping in an Electromagnetic Field.
Be aware that we may be exposed to GS and EMF energy in our daily
surroundings. The goal is to avoid them while sleeping as this is when we
are most vulnerable. A good rule of thumb is to keep all electrical
appliances unplugged or at least three feet from your body while sleeping.
There are specific areas of your home that can be examined in relation to
fertility. The area of a building that is related to Children is the
western sector. This area can be enhanced using the Metal element.
Be sure the rooms in this part of your home are used on a regular basis.
Also they should be uncluttered. This means no physical clutter as well
as unfinished projects, things that are broken or unloved. Another area
to pay close attention to is the bedroom which can be balanced using elements
based on your four pillars. The element related to the reproductive
system is water. In essence this means the plumbing in your home needs to
be in good working order.
There are several advanced methods of analysis used by the Feng Shui expert
and many of these can reveal additional factors that effect fertility.
These systems identify specific directions, sectors, or elements that are
related to health as well as other aspects of life. Examples of these
include:
Ming Kua calculations, based on gender and date of birth, provide
information regarding your auspicious and inauspicious directions. These
are specific to each individual regardless of where they live or work.
Ba Zai provides information about the auspicious and inauspicious sectors of a
building based on Lo Pan Compass and analysis of the trigrams, five phases,
etc. This information is specific to each building regardless to who
lives or works there.
Flying Star is based on a buildings Lo Pan reading and age. These
calculations are made using the elements of both time and space which makes it
possible to examine the fortune of a building throughout different ages.
In this system the area related to health moves according to cycles of
time.
Four Pillars charts are calculated using time of birth, yin/yang, five elements
and a variety of other tools. This provides information on your
constitution and character regarding strengths, weaknesses, and helpful
elements. Using Chinese medicine an imbalance of elements could be treated
using herbs. Using Feng Shui the balancing or supporting elements are
introduced into your environment. Elements vary based on your personal
needs. For instance wearing metal jewelry may enhance or decrease your
ability to become pregnant depending on your chart. Similarly the
presence of certain elements in your bedroom can have positive or negative
effects for each individual.
Anyone trying to conceive wants to do every thing possible to become
pregnant. While they may pay close attention to monthly cycles,
nutrition, etc., these are internal aspects. By also examining the Feng
Shui of their surroundings, an external environment can be created to support
and enhance their efforts.
