Dear @DondeAnnette, Thank you for taking the time to comment. I have had many people that have found my eGuide very helpful and given them results, I am sorry to hear that was not your experience. I wish you would have reached out directly to share your concerns, I am always happy to see if there is any additional assistance or tips I can provide. I did want to address a few inaccuracies in your comments however. First, there is only 1 floorplan in the video that is also in my eGuide. There are various other floorplan sketches in the PDF that each contain insights on how to apply the BAgua to those shapes in order for the reader to then be able to apply it to their own floorplan based on the various shapes of their own home. As for pages that have full size images, my eGuide is only available for sale on my website (fengshuibaguamap.com/feng-shui-bagua-map/ formerly EmpowerYourHomeNow) on which the sales page has clear images of what the inside pages look like which is magazine style, and as one reads through the guide in detail the images I, and others have felt, are reflective of of the material. I will adjust the page count to remove the photo credits, that was from a prior edit, but I always properly provide copyright attributions where required. I do wish you good luck on your Feng Shui endeavors and that you find the assistance you are seeking. I have also reached out via email. Thank you. Sincerely, Heather Melcer Harmony In Motion Feng Shui

There are many different ways, but just to give a few ideas....you can lay the Bagua down on each room individually, so enhancing that area of the BAgua map on each room individually can be beneficial (though being mindful to maintain balance with regards to what is placed there in relation to the overall Bagua with regards to the element cycles); square it off, add a patio or something like that, or even just something to mark the corner with something special. this isn't always possible with apartments and structures like that, so placing a mirror that helps kind of "push" the wall back in those cases is a possibility.

If it is exact, then it is missing. You can also get a sense of confirming this if you evaluate what has been going on in life since living in that house as usually it will reflect the missing parts. But as I stated in my video, just because an area is missing, doesn't mean you won't have that, it just may be a bit of extra effort to have it flowing and/or lessons needed to learn in that area of life which are beneficial for you on a more spiritual level.

Hi Melissa, thanks for watching. If it's exact, it's considered a missing piece. There are many things to do to help to offset the energy of a missing area. One thing is is to focus on enhancing that area/corner in a few individual rooms when laying the bagua over that room individually. You can also lay the Bagua down over the entire lot of a home and make enhancements to the lot as well. Good luck with your Feng Shui endeavors!

Technically you would not include an outdoor balcony on the Bagua itself, but if you lay the Bagua over the lot of your home, that will give you some insight into where the house and thus the balcony so can anchor in a little extra energy if desired. As for hitting a wall part upon entrance, that is a bit more complicated to just advise from a description such as that, I do not know if those are actual doors or just hallways, entryways and how the rest of the house lays out. I do offer virtual consultations for those interested or my eGuide on Bagua Maps. However, what I normally suggest for a DIY method is to try the Bagua map both ways and see what kind of insights you get. In Feng Shui your home is a mirror reflection of who you are and what is going on in you life at any given moment, so very often you will be able to see how the Bagua being layed down reflects life one way vs. the other and can figure that out.

Thanks for sharing, I'll have to give that a try sometime. :-)

Thank you!

In this case you would use the upstairs main door that is direct entrance to just your apartment. :-)

You're welcome!

It is a book from a very long time ago, try eBay and search for the title "Treasured Armenian Recipes". I saw one or two copies on there.

Hi Jael - One way to start is to lay the Bagua Map down over the floorplan of your home (I have another vide on my channel you can watch about it). Then look at what is going on in the Relationship area, Family area and Health. Start there and just notice what is going on, are those areas really messy, start by giving those areas a good cleaning and decluttering to help lift the energy. Then you can research some things to put in those areas to help bring more balance. There are many other things that can effect love relationships and family health, but this is one place you can just start with. Good luck to you!

You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed the video. Good luck with your Feng Shui endeavors!

Hi Tania - It depends on what School of Feng Shui you are following. In the Black Hat/Western philosophy the Bagua is always placed based on the position of your front door, as opposed to the actual compass direction, so the directions would not apply in this case. But if you are following other schools/methods of Feng Shui the southern hemisphere would be different, and yes, NE, N, NW. There is no right/wrong to what style of Feng Shui you connect to or feel connected to. Here is a good overview if you are going to be doing the Bagua using directions and the difference between hemisphere's. www.thespruce.com/apply-feng-shui-bagua-in-southern-hemisphere-1274410 But what I often suggest is to lay the Bagua down based on both styles and then assess each one to see how it relates to your actual life, as our homes are a mirror reflections of what is going on. Often you can see or feel which way resonates with you and your family. I hope that gives you some insights. Good luck with Feng Shui endeavors.

Yes, you can do that, thanks. But it's the part when you export it as a movie file, you would want to makes sure the actual presentation slide is set to the square sizing or else it's just a cropped video/image inside a big white rectangle, so doing it this way allows the creator to see where their crops are exactly. (though I am assuming Powerpoint has measurements so you can actually make the crop square.

Yes, she is a lady full of life, a grand life!! Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you Saya! :-)

You mean different videos on the Bagua Map? It is because there are different schools/methods of Feng Shui. The ultimate goals of harmony and success, and though many have common routes, they all take a slightly different route to get there. There is no right or wrong to what method someone connects to if it helps them in their life. Often if someone is confused about something I suggest to map out the Bagua according to different methods and then look at those areas and then think about those areas of your life. In Feng Shui ones home is a mirror reflection of who they are and what is going on in their life. Once you start mapping out the floorplan and asses how things lay out, sometimes it is clear and naturally makes sense which method one might resonate with. Sometimes it's also just what someone connects to energetically. I hope that answers your questions a little more.

@@HeatherMelcer what about using the feng shui compass in the room ? And can you talk about Feng Shui vision board...

@@ayres6727 If you are looking to use a FEng Shui compass it would be best to consult with compass Feng Shui methods. As for a FEng Shui vision board, do you just mean making a vision board using Feng Shui details? Some people choose to create a vision board and select images for your intentions based on the 9 areas of the BAgua map. Here is an article with a sample of Feng Shui vision board, you can see how each section relates to the BAgua map ( susantarameyer.com/deep-freeze-vision-board-inspiration/)

Thanks, glad it was helpful!

Her dish is slightly different than the recipe book too, and I have seen (and tasted!) a few variations as well. And yes, definitely something to film when you can, it is a great treasure to have someday.

You're welcome, I am glad you found it beneficial.

Thank you! Glad it was insightful.

Hi Ash. I am glad you enjoyed the video. I am not sure I know what you mean by a shared H house. If you mean by shared house you are living with roommates, I would focus first on your own room as you can lay the Bagau down on just one room based on where the door to the room is, so can start with that. If it is the whole house, It depends on where the door is and it may be a bunch of extensions. The Bagua map is just one tool that we use to incorporate Feng Shui into our environments, but there are some situations in Feng Shui depending on the layout where it may be beneficial to work on each room individually or to look at some other aspects of Feng Shui like balance of elements, furniture placement and flow of energy through each room, the outside of the house and many other facets. Hope that gives you a little insight. Thanks again for watching the video.

@@HeatherMelcer Hi Heather, many thanks f ro taking the time to respond. Really appreciate it. I actually meant to say H SHAPED house so sorry about the typo! Many thanks

@@ashvarma2486 Ah, ok, that question now makes sense. It really depends on which way it is 50% and where the front door is. I am planning to do a Q&A video over the next couple of weeks, I'll make a note to include this question as it may take drawing it out to explain. So stay tuned and hopefully that will help. (if you are subscribed to my channel make sure to hit the little bell button next to it and you'll get a notification of my next video upload).

@@HeatherMelcer Hi Heather, many thanks for the feedback. I'll definitely look out for your Q&A video. Cheers

Thank you Melissa!

Hi Amani. Thank you so much for your comment. I am glad the video was helpful with tips, those little details can make a big difference. To answer your question, basically from the Western Feng Shui standpoint, the base front door (location, not direction) and north are in some practices essentially the same thing. If we look at the root of the Bagua map, and the ancient Chinese celestial animals, this is why some people refer to the bottom of the bagua as the "north" for the "career" area. Here are two links below that might help give you some insight into that. I will also say that there are many schools and methods of Feng Shui out there. They all get you to the same place, they all just take a slightly different route to get there. There is no right or wrong way, follow your intuition to be guided to the school and method that feels right for you. Good luck on your Feng Shui endeavors! - Heather en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Symbols www.nationsonline.org/oneworld/Chinese_Customs/bagua.htm

@@HeatherMelcer thank you for your fast answer and for the links too. But how about if I wanna apply the feng shui on only one room. Which the door is not on the north. Shall i go with it? Thank you again. Regards

@@amanis3614 If you are following the Western/Black Hat method, you always lay the Bagua down based on where the front door is located, the bottom of the Bagua being Helpful People, Career, Knowledge), this is the same for whether it is the front door to the whole house or just one room within the house it does not matter what direction it is. Stand at the door to that one room looking into the room, that is the way the Bagua goes. :-)

@@HeatherMelcer yes, i already made this. But i was wondering about the reason of considering the door on the north direction. Appreciate your answer. Have a lovely day

@@amanis3614 The reason is in the links I shared, the reason why career is called north, dates back thousands of years ago to the celestial animal, latter heaven sequence of the bagua, as well as actually being in China. You too have a lovely day.

You're welcome! Glad it was clear and you enjoyed it. Good luck on your Feng Shui endeavors.

You're welcome!

In this method/school of Feng Shui, we lay the Bagua down based on the position of the front door as opposed to the direction of it. So you would stand at your front door and place it down based on how you were standing there looking into your house no matter what direction your door is facing. But there are other forms of Feng Shui that will lay it down differently based on your compass direction, there are some other videos that go over that. Often I suggest to lay the Bagua down based on both styles and then assess each one to see if it is relating to your actual life. You can usually see or feel which way resonates with you :-)

Thank you Michell Dee, I am glad the video inspired to move your desk and that the space feels better. Thanks so much for sharing your experience! Enjoy your Feng Shui endeavors!

Hi. in what context? It would depends on the specific space you need to buffer and/or slow down the energy. If a desk is in line with the door for example, it can be a round faceted Feng Shui type of crystal hanging from the ceiling in-between you/the desk and the door, it could be a little area rug in-between you/the desk and the door, or a little table with a plant on it (soft leaves, not sharp pointed leaves) next to the desk between the desk and the door. Those are some random examples, it depends on your space.

@@HeatherMelcer , thank you for your response. Specifically, I wonder about poison arrows. I have one just inside the entrance of my front door. When you enter my home, there is a hallway at the left and one straight ahead. The hallway straight ahead also has a stairway to the right of it. The entrance is very small, and so there is no room for plants or anything that would sit on the floor.

@@RLSCS A few things, to soften the actual poison arrow corner you can put something on it, like maybe drape a decorative hanging thing or fabric right on it (think of like what a parent of a toddler would do to babyproof the edges of a sharp coffee table, do that vertically). Also, you can protect the energy when walking in the front door. For tight spots like that, think ceiling and floor. Hang a Feng Shui crystal from the ceiling in the center of that entranceway when you walk in and also consider a small round mat/rug on the floor, this can help in a number of ways, to slow the energy down, add protection to the energy from the arrow and also to help get the energy to flow in all directions more easily.

Heather Melcer , thank you so much for these suggestions.

Start with laying the Bagua map down on the WHOLE floorpla and work with that, that is the most important of what is happening in your overall life and you can start making adjustments there for improved energy.. Then after you do that, if you want to lay the Bagua Map down on each room, the key point look at is whatever area you are working on in your life. ---- For example, if someone is working on finances in their life, it is helpful to look at the Wealth corner in the whole house. After that, you could check the wealth corner in each room.

@@HeatherMelcer thank you so much for reply .
