Timing is everything and August promises to be a month filled with all the Astrological signatures of Divine Timing & Intervention so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to introduce how Astrology & Feng Shui are complementary tools.

In Feng Shui we have 3 Kinds of Luck that we work with and each represents 33.3% of our cumulative luck. The good news is that 2 out of three or 66.6% of our good fortune we actually have agency over!

SPIRITUAL & DIVINE LUCK

The first kind of luck is referred to as Spiritual or Divine luck. Some refer to it as divine timing or destiny. This kind of luck we don’t have agency over but we do have a tool to gage it and that is (Astrology) which helps us determine when our most fortunate times to implement things might be. Listen folks, I’m an Astrology enthusiast and student but not an expert. I do however pay strong attention to the trends because they influence us and since this is such an astrologically pivotal month, I’m going to share this month’s highlights for you to consider. We have a plethora of astrological activity starting with a new moon in Leo on 8/4/24; what’s a new trend starting for you here? Mercury the planet of communication and technology goes Retrograde from 8/5/24 to 8/28/24; what old projects, friends, ideas and trends are returning to your consciousness? Then we have the Lions-gate Portal on 8/8/24, what new aspect of yourself and your life is completely transforming? And finally the full “blue” moon on 8/19/24 when something comes to a dramatic culmination, what’s that look like for you? The whole month we will be navigating the retrograde! This will color everything from our communication, to technology creating a need to double check, reassess, and refine everything. Sounds like fun right?! That’s my synopsis for August but believe me there’s way more, these are just the highlights. Now on to the other kinds of luck we work with in Feng Shui.

HUMAN LUCK

Human Luck is the next and second kind of luck we talk about in Feng Shui. It is essentially our Attitude or Energy and our Intention and Attention. This kind of luck we absolutely have agency over however, many of us struggle with maintaining and cultivating a positive attitude and directing our energy towards productive things. It helps to ponder on what our desired outcome is and how we want to feel as a result. Meditation, journaling, studying the law of attraction and folks like Esther Hicks, Dr. Joe Dispenza, and Developmental Biologist Bruce Lipton can really help with tools for upgrading our attitudes and what we give our attention to.

EARTHLY LUCK

The 3rd and final kind of luck we talk about in Feng Shui is Earthly Luck! My favorite because it is everything we can physically do that is actionable and specifically refers to Feng Shui. So everything from feng shui cures, adjustments and actions you take physically in the world towards your goals is Earthly Luck! Earthly Luck also includes all kinds of actions we take in the physical world towards our goals like classes, exercise, networking, me
