Living amongst your stuff

Heh,
Just wanted to share some anecdotal evidence for the validity of FS. I'm undergoing a move right now. I'm leaving behind an older townhouse with its mixture of pluses and minuses like worn, weathered hardwood (not parkay), a gas stove, a smalll yard, but a moldy basement, single pane glass windows, old furnace, old paint (of course now covered with low VOC) and moving to a brand new condominium with carpet... new paint.... but thermal windows, good efficient plumbing, open concept etc. In this week or two of the transition I find myself feeling more apathetic or lethargic, also going through old things of course stirs up old memories, but is a necessary clearing of old ways.
I would encourage any of you reading this to conduct a brief experiment- if you are already orderly and free of clutter, congratulations-but perhaps your satisfaction lies on a deeper more spiritual level. For those of you struggling to live in an orderly environment simply clear one corner of one room, observe this and focus on it- I am sure it will radiate outwards to the rest of the room and beyond in your life.
I will post again when I am in my new abode. I am curious to see whether a place which I chose based on intrinsically good Feng Shui will ripple into other areas of my life.
Positive energy to all.

For the Skeptics

I have not actually charged money for my Feng Shui services at this point but merely volunteered them for friends and family. I will give you three examples of successful FS cures and solutions.
Case Study#1:
A friend of a guitar student of mine had for months been trying to get pregnant, I asked them to decribe their bedroom to me- there were many problems in there, I suggested several changes and they excitedly said "why not". No more than a month later she called my student to inform her they were pregnant.
Case Study#2:
This one involves my sister and her husband who was just starting a new business. Naturally, I wanted to jack up the abundance area, and fame reputation. Within weeks- actaully the first week within implementing the changes he received plenty of work, and soon had to book as much as a year in advance.
Case study#3:
This one is similiar to the last one except it was more invovled. It consisted not just of more work but debt reduction(somewhat related). In a quick 20 minute session, we managed to effect change that brought about debt consolidation and again, advance bookings for services.

The secret is to act on the change/opportunity once you see it has presented itself. If you don't really want what you're asking for, why ask?
Be thankfull.
