Sorry this is late. My year has been chaotic. I have sold my house in Draper/ Salt Lake City area and we are moving to Mesquite, Nevada as a main residence. We must be out of our home by June 17th. We will eventually buy a smaller condo here in the valley, probably in the fall, but right now we are focused on getting out of the Draper home.
My home sold in a day. I listed it on the new moon and did a secret feng shui adjustment to help the sale. We listed it one day, got the offer the next day, and accepted it the third day. It was fast and the transformation has been an emotional on. I live and breathe feng shui. I do nothing without consulting the energy of the day and the how it interacts with my four pillar chart. I even plan travel on the good travel days for me. When one understands how feng shui energy of the day affects their inner feng shui chart you can adjust your environment to stay stable and somewhat upright!! Some days though are just destined to be sucky!!
The month of May starts out somewhat stable with the good earth of wealth helping to stabilize the unstable earth energy of the annual star. Put still water and citrine in the middle of your home this month for stabilizing and protecting your wealth.
With the annual star #5 star of instability located in the center of the ba-gua all this year we may still feel lot of earth quaking and instability in our lifestyles throughout the year; thus the Boston Marathon Bombing last month when the #5 was coupled with the expansion energy of the #9 bring forth this instability. The Boston Bombings occurred in a Fire Dragon month and on a Metal Pig Day. Fire and metal are volatile, clashing energies. The bombing occurred during the Wood Sheep hour, thus fueling the fire. READ these monthly aspects to know when to lay low and when to be visible, as they relate to your Eastern Astrology chart.
To offset any unpredictability in your home this year, place beautiful raw clear crystals in the center of the home to remind you of the third eye energy and a knowing of what to do in time of trouble. The clear crystal will also bring clearer energy to the unstable energy of the Yellow star. The crystal energy will brighten the center of your home with hope and optimism and resonate a rainbow of light within the Yellow star, breaking down its harsh energy. May sure your salt water is in place in the center of your home to cool and offset harsh energy. The good news is the month of May will be a better month than April.
The expansion star flies to the NW bringing good luck and fortune to the Pig and Dog and NW facing homes. Everyone can place a ship with 6 gold coins or ingots on it in the NW of the home pointing towards the center of the home to activate this energy and symbolize your ship coming in. Make sure the ship is not sailing out a window or door. You may also place a water feature in the NW. The water and/or the ship will calm some of the fire/metal clash of this sector. We may see men’s egos going overboard this month with the authority star in the NW. Use water to calm ego is males in a household or business start clashing.
Career energy and promotions flies to the West and energizes the Rooster this month. Place extra water in the West this month to activate the energy. Place a Rooster in the West of the home to offset the competition and jealousy within the work place and home. Display a picture of a calm mountain to support and smother the #7 of retribution star.
Place a metal wu-lou, cobalt blue crystal, or Tree of life in the Northeast of your home this month to protect your health. Because the universe speaks in signs and symbols, I recommend every person place the protection sigil decal on your body and in your car. Make sure your water feature is clear and running smoothly in the NE of your home this year to promote wealth with harm to none. The NE sector of the home this month boasts the auspicious combination of 10 making it a sector to place objects and certificates for promotions and money. Very lucky for the Ox, Tiger, and NE facing homes this month.
Conflicts with money are possible for the Horse and South facing homes this month. Place a red crystal, red apple, or red Buddha in the South of your home this month with still water to stabilize the energy. The wood/ fire energy makes the energy high for conflict; use extra water to calm your body energy.
The Lucky Green Star of Literary Success and Romance flies to North meeting up with the Career Star. Success resides in the North and is an active sector for those in writing or the arts, Rat, or North facing home. This month you may see an increase in money for success in writing or direction and intelligence. Place a wish fulfilling crystal in the North with 4 lucky bamboos to bring power and wealth to your writing skills. Children may study in this area this month for increased ability. Place peonies and rose quartz in the North for Romantic luck. Also place a pair of birds to promote longevity and healthy life. This could be a good spot to make babies this month with the big bang spark and the romance star.
Place Salt Water Cure or Salt Lamp in the Southwest of your home this month to stabilize monthly energy for women. Women, Sheep and Monkey should take no risks with health or money. Remove all excess fire energy this month. Because the universe speaks in signs and symbols, I recommend every person place the protection sigil decal on your body and in your car. You may also place Peacock Feathers in the SW to activate Kwan Yin energy for protection and mercy.
Windfall luck and promotion flies to the East bringing luck to the Rabbit and East facing home. Everyone may place 6 coins in the East this month for money luck and fortune. You may also activate a ship with gold ingots in the North facing toward the center of the home.
Karma and Personal Growth aspects in the Southeast this month bring instability to all aspects of our lives. Be careful of striking out too quickly this month. Place a bowl of Blue Detergent in the Southeast of your home to offset this energy. You may also place peacock feathers in this area to symbolize protecting eyes. Place a clear purple crystal or raw clear crystal in this area to promote clear thinking.
Have a fabulous month!! Live long and prosper!! I wish you much wealth, health, and happiness.
Feng Shui Aspects for April 2013

This month you may continue to feel the changing transition of the year. These last few months I have been hearing of so much dizziness, people passing out, eyes, ears, and nose problems. I have not been surprised. REMEMBER: The Snake rules the Kundalini energy and the pineal gland, which is located behind the forehead and between the ears.
The kundalini energy is energy asleep at the base of the spine—root chakra– waiting to be awakened by breath or movement. The root charka serves to bring us good health, a sense of well-being, and connects us to nature and the earth. As the energy of the root chakra travels up our spine, it must flow easily through the spleen, solar plexus, heart, throat, to the third eye chakra. When it finds an energy block it will work and spiral its way through the block releasing unharnessed and unrestrained energy into the nervous system causing muscle twitches, pains, and involuntary reactions throughout the body. All chakras will be affected.
Life may seem out of sorts and as the transformation takes place you may feel foreign in your body. Accept the transformation; don’t fight it. It is the shedding of the old and the imprinting of the new. Of course, always check with your health provider for any concerns you may have.
The energy of the heavens flows into our crown chakra and meet at the third eye chakra and travels on to the heart chakra bringing balance of love, compassion, and understanding. When one or more of these chakras are blocked, dis-ease or dis-comfort of nervous system will be experienced.
This year the snake is automatically awakening this Kundalini in everyone. This energy is so powerful and affects the nervous systems as it opens up your feelers—feelings. Many have no idea what to do with all this emotion so outbursts of anger may be the result. This Kundalini then goes to the pineal glands between the ears causing an increase in vibration, which literally knocks off the balance of the ears.
This year you will be hearing with your third ear or intuitive ear. You will hear things not being said. You will hear things that are not there. Sometimes it may seem as though your ears are humming because the vibration level has risen. You may feel dizzy or light headed. Some may even pass out.
As the vibrational level of the body changes you may notice the throat chakra and voice may go higher or lower. You may feel a hoarseness or scratchy feeling in the throat. Thyroid glands may also act up. (Side note: See you doctor is you have any of these symptoms to rule out something serious….I am not a doctor…just an observer of trends and patterns.) However if nothing is found–drink more water and chalk it up to the pineal gland energy activating.
Find your voice. Don’t stuff your emotions. Deal with your buried emotions!! Start by increasing your conscious awareness by acknowledging what it is you need to do to find your balance again. What is causing the nervous stress in your head, vibrating even more, to get your attention?
Sometimes you will need to de-clutter people, places, and things from your environment that no longer support you. Be strong, be pro-active and get er’ done!!! Make a choice to no longer ignore the inevitable and surrender to the higher powers that guide your life and let it happen easily and effortlessly. No fear. No transition is made easily and without disturbance. Above all…don’t panic… Drink more water, get your rest, and exercise off that extra buzz!!
Side note: However, again, always see your health care provider if you are fearful of any health issues??
With the #5 star of instability located in the center of the ba-gua all this year we may still lot of earth quaking and instability in our lifestyles throughout the year. This month the expansion start gives extra energy to the instability. To offset this unpredictability in your home be sure to place beautiful raw clear crystals in the center of the home to remind you of the third eye energy and a knowing of what to do in time of trouble. The clear crystal will also bring clearer energy to the unstable energy of the Yellow star. The crystal energy will brighten the center of your home with hope and optimism and resonate a rainbow of light within the Yellow star, breaking down its harsh energy. May sure your salt water cure is in place in the center of your home to cool and offset harsh energy. This month the energy unstable earth is energized so stay diligent.
This is an instable time for any business or personal interaction and an unfortunate month for Korea to flex their muscles. Will history repeat itself? As written in the Water Snake book….pg. 10..
General Dwight D. Eisenhower was inaugurated as president in January of 1953 and Nikita
Khrushchev won power in Soviet Union after the death of Josef Stalin. The Soviet Union also
detonated its first hydrogen bomb that same year. In July of 1953, an agreement was signed to ceasefire in the Korean War. East Berliners also rebelled against communist rule, signifying further, a year of change and transformation.
Korea has been flexing their muscles for years and this could be the year the head of the pimple pops and the conflict resolved. They may be the month it could be met with force. I certainly hope it will be solved peacefully.
This month, the Ho-Tu numbers of 1-6 line up in the NW bringing good luck and fortune to the Pig and Dog and NW facing homes. Everyone can place a ship with 6 gold coins or ingots on it in the NW of the home pointing towards the center of the home to activate this energy and symbolize your ship coming in. Make sure the ship is not sailing out a window or door. You may also place a water feature in the NW.
Be careful of health in the West this month. Place a metal wu-lou or cobalt blue crystal in the West with your blue detergent salt water as outline in the Water Snake Book. We may see a rise in lung, eye, ears, throat, and nose again this month, so stay yang, dry, and warm. The Rooster and West facing house should take no unnecessary risks this month with your health. Because the universe speaks in signs and symbols, I recommend every person pack the protection sigil decal on your body and in your car. I have my protection sigil on my front door and the windshield of my car always!! A picture of the sigil can be found on page 52 of the Female Water Snake Book. Also place peacock feathers to bring the protection of the deity Kwan Yin. Limit all red and fire energy in this area this month.
Conflicts with money are possible for the Ox, Tiger and NE facing homes this month. Place a red crystal, red apple, or red Buddha in the NE of your home this month with still water to stabilize the energy.
The Lucky Green Star of Literary Success and Romance flies to South meeting up with the Fame Star. This is a good month for those in writing or the arts, Horse, or South facing home. This month you may see an increase in money for success in writing or direction and intelligence. Place a wish fulfilling crystal in the South with 4 lucky bamboos to bring power and wealth to your writing skills. Children may study in this area this month for increased ability. Place peonies and rose quartz in the South for Romantic luck. Also place a pair of birds to promote longevity and healthy life. This could be a good spot to make babies this month with the big bang spark and the romance star.
Place Salt Water Cure or Salt Lamp in the North of your home this month.
Windfall luck and promotion flies to the Southwest bringing luck to Women, Sheep, and Monkey, as well as a South West facing home. Place 6 coins in the Southwest this month for money luck and fortune.
Karma and Personal Growth aspects in the East this month bring instability, some family units. Be careful of striking too quickly this month. Place a bowl of Blue Detergent in the East of your home to offset this energy. You may also place peacock feathers in this area to symbolize protecting eyes. Place a clear purple crystal or raw clear crystal in this area to promote clear thinking.
The luckiest sector this month is Southeast. Place symbols of wealth, health, and happiness in this sector this month. Place pink peonies for love and happiness, money for wealth, and gourds for good health. You may wish to place the Wealth Gods, Fuk, Luk and Sau in this area to enhance wealth this month. Be sure to have running water in this area with citrine stones or gold ingots in it.
Have a fabulous month!! Live long and prosper!!
Feng Shui Aspects for March 2013
Disclaimer: All aspects and predictions of the flying stars are for fun and entertainment purposes only and should not be used in the place of medical care if you should need it. The monthly adjustments, in addition to the annual flying stars, should be placed in the directional sectors of the property, home, office, or desk.

Another month down in the Snake year….. Already going too quickly. The
Female Snake is already on the move removing the rose glasses we have worn for a lifetime. The energy is vibrating at a higher vibration and people are becoming more pro-active in their own be-ing. People are continuing the trend and more are jumping on board the Spirit wagon—looking internally, instead of externally, for answers.
I posted a controversial blog on www.maryshurtleff.com about How Spiritual are You, Really? The blog got mostly some really good reviews but also got nailed with a couple of hate remarks. However, my job as a coach is to punch up the emotions that are stuck and expose them to not only you, but also others. The Female Water Snake exposes lies, secrets, and deceptions and no one is immune. This is the year you will be called on your stuff and illusions stripped away. If you have been bratty, stubborn, or manipulative in the past- it will come back to haunt you this year. If you have been generous and open in the past, that becomes your karma and good will be returned to you. So, make a decision now to come clean and own your stuff. Don’t hide and watch. Just BE. Show the world that you are– good and bad. And if you don’t like what you see—CHANGE it. No one has a spotless mind and backyard, no matter how hard you try to hide. You created it, you can un-create it.
This year we have already seen some of the illusions stripped away within government, church, and personal relations. The Vatican has had it own surge of problems this month. On February 12th right after the Pope announced his resignation the Vatican was struck by lightening, not once but twice. Issues of past abuses of power by its leaders are now plaguing the Church again. In past it was shoved under the rug, however, the Snake energy will not allow it. She is about awareness and retribution. The new pope will have to address that to stabilize the credibility of the Church to the world.
In the Female Water Snake Book 2013 I said:
Pg. 17–MONTH PILLAR: The Yang Wood over Yang Wood (Thunder) signifies
lots of noise and shake up this year with confusion. This year, the structure
of a business, government, church, or family level may see a lot of noise with
no real action. We will hear of things coming that may never materialize. So
with that said, ‘don’t panic until facts are revealed.’ Dig deeper, get the facts first.
Ironically this has already come to pass with the fiscal cliff scare and sequester with both sides touting their scary stories of ‘WHAT IF?” And the gun control that has everyone scrambling for guns. Both issues have caused pillage and plunder with no real action from the events predicted. The solutions—get the facts before you strike out unnecessarily.
Right now with mercury in retrograde until March 17th, there is a lot of miscommunication and people striking out needlessly. Like last year, this behavior is causing a lot of lost relationships. Be patient and be open to hear. Double check your work, follow up on all communications, and balance the energy of your home and body. If you have to say—“Just to be clear’—then repeat what you needed to clarify– will certainly alleviate a lot of misunderstandings.
This month you may continue to feel the changing transition of the year from the aggressive water dragon to the calmer energy of the water snake. The Snake rules the pineal gland, which is located behind the forehead and between the ears. This year you will be hearing with your third ear. You will hear things not being said. You will hear things that are not there. Sometimes it may seem as though your ears are humming because the vibration level has risen. You may feel dizzy or light headed. Some may even pass out. (Side note: See you doctor is you have any of these symptoms to rule out something serious….I am not a doctor…just an observer of trends and patterns.) However if nothing is found–drink more water and chalk it up to the pineal gland energy activating.
You may also have sudden feelings of nervousness or confusion and periods where you may have felt angry but then calm. It will seems as though there is a lot of movement of energy and activity around your body when no one is there and things are bumping in the night so to speak. The Kundalini energy of the Snake is activating the senses and the spine. No transition is made easily and without disturbance. This energy will continue to vibrate for the next month, so stay diligent of what is occurring around you. Above all…don’t panic… Drink more water, get your rest, and exercise off that extra buzz!!
Side note: However, again, always see your health care provider if you are fearful of any health issues??
With the #5 star of instability located in the center of the ba-gua all this year we may still lot of earth quaking and instability in our lifestyles throughout the year. Just this last month in Florida we saw a house sink into a massive sink hole with others being found in the area. Sometimes we just can’t control Mother Nature when she goes out of balance. We must always seek to rebalance what has been thrown out of balance.
To offset this instability in your home be sure to place beautiful raw clear crystals in the center of the home to remind you of the third eye energy and a knowing of what to do in time of trouble. The clear crystal will also bring clearer energy to the unstable energy of the Yellow star. The crystal energy will brighten the center of your home with hope and optimism and resonate a rainbow of light within the Yellow star, breaking down its harsh energy.
This month, the star of Career flies to the center of the ba-gua and merges with the star of instability bringing some uncertainty to business ventures. Change out all salt water vases located in the center of the home this month to ensure they are in good clear condition. Place a ship with gold on it in the center of the home to subconsciously symbolize your ship coming in.
This month in the Northwest place a metal or wood wu-lou to offset illness and emotions. We may see a rise in lung issues this month, so stay yang, dry, and warm. The dog and pig should take no unnecessary risks this month with your health. Because the universe speaks in signs and symbols, I recommend every person pack the protection sigil decal on your body and in your car. I have my protection sigil on my front door and the windshield of my car always!! A picture of the sigil can be found on page 52 of the Female Water Snake Book.
Conflict meets with instability in the West this month. Place a bowl of blue detergent salt water in this area. (Blue detergent, salt, and water in equal parts). Also peacock feathers to bring the protection of the deity Kwan Yin. Limit all red and fire energy in this area this month.
The Lucky Green Star of Literary Success and Romance flies to Northeast meeting up with the Wealth star, symbolizing an increase in money for success in writing or direction and intelligence. Place a wish fulfilling crystal in the Northeast to bring power and wealth to your writing skills. Children may study in this area this month for increased ability. Place peonies and rose quartz in the Northeast for Romantic luck. Also place a pair of birds to promote longevity and healthy life. This could be a good spot to make babies this month with the womb energy of the earth and the romance star. The Tiger and Ox may be extremely fertile this month so be careful if you do not wish to have a bambino.
Place Salt Water Cure or Salt Lamp in the South of your home this month. Be careful of too much fire energy here this month. Place raw clear crystals in the south to lift the energy of the unstable earth in this sector this month.
Power and Authority flies to the North bringing career luck. Place 6 coins in a vase of water in the North this month. The Rat and North facing homes may especially see career promotions this month.
Karma and Personal Growth aspects in the Southwest this month bring instability, some illness, and emotional outbreaks to women and anyone residing in that area. In addition to the wu-lou in the SW, place a bowl of Blue Detergent in the SW of your home to offset this energy. You may also place peacock feathers in this area to symbolize protecting eyes. Place a clear blue crystal or raw clear crystal in this area to promote clear thinking.
The Wealth star resides in the East this month bringing good money prospects to family endeavors. You may wish to place the Wealth Gods, Fuk, Luk and Sau in this area to enhance wealth this month. Be sure to have running water in this area with citrine stones or gold ingots in it.
Reputation and fame can be found in the Southeast sector this month as the Purple Star of Expansion flies in this month bringing double luck to writing and arts skills. Place 4 bamboos in this area to uplift that creative energy. The energy is also high for romance. If you wish to activate your sex life, place small water vase and your peach blossom animal in this area. Be careful of unwanted pregnancy and extra marital affairs.
Have a fabulous month!! Live long and prosper!!
This Female Water Snake year will make all of us question who we really are?
With the pending release of my The Realm of Spirit book, which speaks of being in Spirit and touching that spiritual part of who we are– I have been asked by the heavens to evaluate what my own ‘spiritual be-ing’ really is? And if I can stand in my own merit about it?
This has been a tough week. I am in a metaphysical field surround by much talk about being spiritual, accepting others, gratitude, and going with the flow. However with that said, there is much judgment that goes with it.
You hear people, who claim to be very spiritual say….’I am spiritual, not religious– I hate religion’. Or I don’t believe in God or I hate God, but I believe in …whatever??? (Fill in the blank.)
Hummm…is that very spiritual– hating religion or people of religious beliefs?? Hating God or higher being? What God means to one person may mean something totally different to another. Life is full of semantics!!
Sadly, it seems the word, spirituality, has become a fad that has to be learned and learned in a certain way to be accepted.
In reality, spirituality is your search for your spirit; your be-ing; your sacred self. It is who you are…this can’t be taught…it must be found. Each journey is different. Your spirit is perfect.
So with that said…what is the difference between the practice of spirituality and religion?
For the sake of not recreating the wheel– Religion, as defined by Wikipedia, is an organized collection of belief systems, cultural systems, and world views that relate humanity to spirituality and, sometimes, to moral values. This definition includes—spirituality.
Your spiritual journey becomes your religious experience for YOUR sacred self that resides deep inside of be-ing. There is no right or wrong on your journey. No one has the right to question your journey and you have no right to question someone else’s.
The lesson here….. I have a story in my Realm of Spirit book about judgment and being spirituality right…take a moment and give it a read and then think about it.
[A devoted man of meditation, after years concentrating on a particular mantra, had attained enough insight to begin teaching. The student's humility was far from perfect but the teachers at the monastery were not worried.
A few years of successful teaching left the proclaimed scholar with no thoughts about learning from anyone. However, upon hearing about a famous hermit living nearby, the opportunity was too exciting to be passed up.
The hermit lived alone on an island at the middle of a lake, so the man hired a man with a boat to row across to the island. The scholar was very respectful of the old hermit. As they shared some tea made with herbs, the scholar asked him about his spiritual practice. The old man said he had no spiritual practice, except for a mantra, which he repeated all the time to himself. The scholar was pleased: the hermit was using the same mantra he used himself -- but when the hermit spoke the mantra aloud, the scholar was horrified!
"What's wrong?" asked the hermit.
"I don't know what to say. I am afraid you have wasted your whole life! You are pronouncing the mantra incorrectly!"
"Oh, Dear! That is terrible. How should I say it?"
The scholar gave the correct pronunciation, and the old hermit was very grateful, asking to be left alone so he could get started right away. On the way back across the lake the scholar, now confirmed as an accomplished teacher, and was pondering the sad fate of the hermit.
"It's so fortunate that I came along. At least he will have a little time to practice correctly before he dies."
Just then, the scholar noticed that the boatman was looking quite shocked, and turned to see the hermit standing respectfully on the water, next to the boat.
"Excuse me, please. I hate to bother you, but I have forgotten the correct pronunciation again. Would you please repeat it for me?"
"You obviously don't need it," stammered the scholar; but the old man persisted in his polite request until the scholar relented and told him again the way he thought the mantra should be pronounced.
The old hermit was saying the mantra very carefully, slowly, over and over, as he walked across the surface of the water back to the island. ] Author Unknown

Feng Shui Aspects for February 2013
Disclaimer: All aspects and predictions of the flying stars are for entertainment purposes only and should not be used in the place of medical care if you should need it. The monthly adjustments, in addition to the annual flying stars, should be placed in the directional sectors of the property, home, office, or desk.
The 2013 Water Snake e-books are available at www.maryshurtleff.com. This year the Snake Book will be available at www.amazon.com.
Finally the Water Dragon is gone but he didn’t leave without bells and whistles.
If you recall, the Water Dragon is the ruler of the heavens and lightening, rain, wind, and thunder and is of the earth element. Between February 4th and the 10th we felt his departure. We felt the earth quake as he stood to fly and the storms howl when he flew away. The East coast was again hit with Nor’easters and the rest of the country was plunged into stormy temperatures as well. Since February 1st, earthquakes have been felt in Japan, Solomon Islands, North Korea, Columbia, Nevada, and Utah and the month is not over yet.
The month you may continue to feel the changing transition of the year from the aggressive water dragon to the calmer energy of the water snake. You may feel a slight dizziness or air-headed feeling; a sudden feeling of nervousness or confusion; periods where you may have felt angry but then calm; lots of movement of energy and activity around your body when no one was there and things bumping in the night so to speak. No transition is made easily and without disturbance. This energy will continue to vibrate into the New Year for a few days and even weeks, so stay diligent of what is occurring around you.
With the #5 in the center of the ba-gua this year we may see a lot of earth quaking and instability in our lifestyles. To offset this in your home be sure to place added metal for foundation and salt water to break down the unstable energy to the center of your home. Also place a beautiful raw clear crystal in the center of the home to remind you of the third eye energy and a knowing of what to do in time of trouble. The clear crystal will also bring clearer energy to the unstable energy of the Yellow star. The crystal energy will brighten the center of your home with hope and optimism and resonate a rainbow of light within the Yellow star, breaking down its harsh energy.
This month, the #2 earth star of illness flying to the center of the ba-gua and merging with the #5 of instability may bring many health issues to many people.
This year has already begun to be an interesting year of accident and injury. In addition to the storms and earthquakes, the year has already seen a police standoff on February 12, 2013 with an ex-LA police officer, Christopher Dorner that ended explosive violence. This confrontation rivaled the Josh Powell incidence, which occurred at the beginning of the Chinese New Year last year on February 5, 2012, in Washington State that resulted in the death of two small children. Adding another layer to this tragedy, Josh Powell’s brother, Michael, committed suicide on February 11, 2013, less than a week after the anniversary of the death of the Josh Powell. I hope this energy is a combination of the dragon leaving and the #5 and #2 meeting in the center of the ba-gua and not the Snake appearing. I am hoping for a quieter year.
To offset this aggressive energy in your home this month, place a BIG metal wu-lou in the middle of the ba-gua this month. If you don’t have a wu-lou, place added metal to the center of the home. Also make sure that salt water adjustment is in place. Take no unnecessary risks this month with your health. This is a universal pattern so no one is immune. You may also place plants in the center of the home this year to control some of the #5 energy. Pack the protection sigil decal on your body and in your car. Also you may put it on your front door. I leave my sigil on my front door always!! A picture of the sigil can be found on page 52 of the Female Water Snake Book.
You may also invite the Medicine Buddha (midnight blue body) or Jesus into your home. Hang a picture of the Medicine Buddha or Jesus in the center of your home and leave it there all year.
If you wish to invite the Medicine Buddha, just say:
‘I invite the Medicine Buddha into my home to protect my family and myself from illness.’
A picture of the Blue Buddha is found on page 33 of the Female Water Snake book found at www.maryshurtleff.com.
OR
If you wish to invite Jesus into your home you may do the following affirmation:
In the name of Jesus I command the illness/affliction of ________________ to be healed. It is done. It is done. It is done. (Say this several times a day)
This month of February, the #3 flies to the Northwest of the home meeting the annual #6 of power and authority. This month, on a universal level, we will again see many conflicts and challenges around government, religions, business, and/or any place where there is a presence of authority. The power will be challenged. In the private home, we may see relationships challenges surrounding father, the Pig, and the Dog people. To keep this to a dull roar, place a red Buddha or red crystal in the North West of your home. Be kind this month.
The #4 Lucky Green Star of Literary Success and Romance flies to West this month, symbolizing an increase for success in writing or direction and intelligence. Since the #4 meets up with the #7, be sure to double-check all paper work for clarity and mistakes. The #4 star is also referred to as the romance star. The Rooster may feel more romantic this month. However, with that said, be careful of extra marital affairs. Everyone may place peonies and rose quartz in the West for Romantic luck.

uh oh….my brain is clicking today…..another Blog!!
I have so many people say to me–I can’t be hypnotized!! We are hypnotized everyday subconsciously by advertising, people’s remarks to us..good and bad, and our past programming from environment, climate, nervous system and family/peers. Heck, my blogs hypnotize you with new ways of thinking. Media and advertising ARE simply a state of waking hypnosis.
Hypnosis is not some deep state of out of control thinking. It is a state of being in which your attention is completely focused on something…whether it be negative thinking in the form of unhappiness and stress resulting in negative behavior such as smoking, over eating, anger, drugs etc; or positive thinking resulting in the form relaxation, happiness, hope, faith, etc. The mind can’t hold opposing ideas and will gravitate to that which is most familiar.
That is where hypnotherapy can help. Hypnotherapy helps you de-hypnotize old beliefs systems and reload new ones on a conscious level. In order to change, you must identify the habits not working for you and why they have imprinted. Hypnotherapy helps you to focus you attention on the positive and what you can do to change your way of thinking.
So next time you have a problem and say to me–I can’t be hypnotized…remember … You already are. You have been hypnotized to believe that you have to be in control of everything in your life so you don’t experience more of what you have in the past. Hypnotherapy results depend your ability to let go of the need to control the future and welcome in a more relaxed way of doing things with faith and hope.
Some do it quickly and others do it more slowly. However, now you know…. the harder you try to hold onto the old habits; the easier it is to let it go and accept a life full of happiness, faith, and hope!! Yep, read that several times for it to sink in and allow you to release. Life is a journey to enjoy.
My book Reconnecting Your Spirit: Seeing the Possibilities have many suggestions of how to adjust your mindset and lifestyle to achieve your dreams. Also available at amazon and Barnes and Noble.
Fun BLOG… Analogy of the last few days following Legend of the zodiac animals. Please share…. let others have your fun!!
Wahoo…. we have made it to the Year of Female Water Snake!! Finally we get to bid the aggressive water dragon ‘adieu’. Last year, he ripped the lids and hearts out of people, places, and things and left a path of chaos in his midst.
The last few day you may have felt the changing transition of the year from the aggressive water dragon to the calmer energy of the water snake. You may have felt a slight dizziness or air-headed feeling. A sudden feeling of nervousness or confusion. Periods where you may have felt angry but then calm. Lots of movement of energy and activity around your body when no one was there. Things bumping in the night so to speak. I have felt all of it and even my level headed, left brained hubby has heard it.
If you recall according to esoteric legend, the dragon, an earth energy in the element zodiac and ruler of the thunder and heavens has to recoiled and leave, opening the path to the Water Snake. As he left his heavenly energy of water, rain, thunder and storms was awakened and the earth shook. This explains the last few days of the storms and the earthquakes. It was a sign the dragon was on the move and returning to a sleep stage. Thank Heavens..literally. May the heavens now calm.
This year, we will be like the snake. We will literally be crawling on our bellies to piece back together all that got shaken and disturbed or broken last year!! Use the earth energy to stabilize your physical body when you feel unsure of yourself and the direction you are to move. Wear stone jewelry on your body and/or meditate with the stones to ground the body. Also sit in large heavy furniture to re-stabilize the body.
Howeverrrrrrr…with that said… a word of caution….piece back together only those things that you wish to fix. If you broke it, you may wish to fix it. If someone else broke, do you really want to fix it?? If you wish, slither off in a new direction to find your new position of power. LIke the snake who slithers on the ground and hides in the grass or climbs and winds up the highest tree to see the world from an advantage point, you have the ability to access your inner intuition this year with magnificent insight and use it appropriately to move your life to places your never thought possible.
Have a fabulous day. Connect with those people who you wish to have in your life this year!! I just did!!
I hope to have the February Feng Shui aspects posted tomorrow. Today set your yearly adjustments as found in the Female Water Snake: Year of Transformation 2013.www.maryshurtleff.com
Take a look for the preparations for the year.
