The fourth nine houses of the bagua: wind (fortunate blessings)
The house of Wind, or Fortunate Blessings, is to do with our experience of blessings and good fortune. Although the energy here does manifest itself in the world as money (which explains why it is often referred to as the "wealth corner"), it is worth noting that our blessings often come to us in other currencies - opportunities, invitations, our children and friends.
The I Ching trigram for Wind carries the image of a flexible tree which bends in the wind. It represents growth, maturing, our sensitivity and assimilation of ideas brought to us like seeds on the winds of change. Because movement is associated with Wind, mobiles, fans and kinetic sculptures all stimulate Wind energy.
- Do you feel blessed with what you have in life right now, however much or however little?
- Do you feel fortunate or do you feel dogged by bad luck?
- Have your bills increased since you moved into your current home?
- Do you have enough money? Or does it go as soon as it comes in?
The energetic association with wealth means that having a bathroom and toilet in this area can be financially challenging. Energy is constantly being depleted by being dragged down the drains and basins, and the downward movement of energy when the toilet is flushed sucks away the positive Chi energy which has gathered in your home, making it difficult for it to manifest itself as hard currency in your life. Take heart, there is a remedy that does not involve major repumbling. Healthy, upward growing plants, pictures of plants (for interior rooms without natural light) and small stones from a river bed acting as anchors can reverse the flow of Chi. The toilet seat should be kept down at all times, plugs left in the drains and a small mirror hung on the outside of the bathroom door (which should also be kept closed).
When this area is missing in a house, accidents and misfortune generally follow. Adjustments involve tree energy again: plants and the colour green. And wood likes to be nourished by water, so this is an ideal place for an indoor fountain or fishtank. Pictures of moving water can also be used, for throughout time, water has been associated with life-giving properties, nourishment and the generation of wealth. If the missing area is contained in your garden, it is worth investing in exterior lighting, a bird bath and attractive plantings for even though it is outside, the space is activated by these, and positive energy is still generated. When there is a projection in this area, on the other hand, the household prospers and everything the inhabitants put their energy into will be more successful.
