Down at the LA Mart checking out Trends...Fur Shui and Judy (designer / illustrator "wonder") and I are finding out what is the new happening designs for folks to enjoy. White is the color of the Creativity gua or lifespace in the bagua map of energies in your home. Creativity also includes children...so amp up the section with all sorts of play toys for your fur folks to enjoy. Keep toys handy in a box or container for them in this section! Soft white beds and fluffy white throw pillows will comfort your fur kids in this area. In the meantime, you can also amp up your creative juices by playing with your naturally curious fur folks in this region. Get into what is "trending", have some fun, find your creativity and joy in life!

Fur Shui recently visited Austin, Texas. Was a wild and crazy time with folks like Jim and the Lonesome Doves. All loved its bright red color which stands for fame. What type of fame did the Wild Wild West call for? Courage, co-operation, building a great foundation for newcomers. It's "rules" for getting along created some pretty famous folks like Sam Houston who was a key figure in the history of Texas. Wear red and activate some FAME! Great for fur folk's collar color when you want to spark their energy and activity. The Fame section of the Bagua has the element of Fire...so "Fire up" your fur folks and go for a new active adventure!

Back in LA...and Fur Shui now is in a LARGER size and paperback format. Visited Aum & Garden and enjoyed their Energy Expo! The book's red matches the vivid enthusiasm that Stanford (to my right) has for what she is doing for the folks at the Expo. Lots of "fame" energy to all who attended!!!

 

Saying farewell to Maui and Napili Bay, with a flurry of clouds and some rain showers visible over on the island of Molokai. Fur Shui is re-charged to come home and be published in a larger fun format for its 2nd edition! Success and good vibes from Maui, the island of "heart"...just like the unconditional love our pets give us everday. Aloha and Mahalo from Fur Shui to all who explore the magical energies of nature.

Great lunch at Kula Lodge in Maui. Under the red shade umbrellas you can see out to the ocean for miles and miles. The "fire" element just above Kula is the Volcano, so the red umbrellas are appropriate for the fire influence, bringing fame to the name of Kula lodge. A great example of going along with the natural energies of one's environment. Just like fur folks, who naturally use what nature already has in place for us FREE of charge to bring balance and harmony to our lives. The book seems right at home snuggled in the gardens of ginger and lava stone...red and "fire"!

At the base of Haleakala rests the Kula Lodge. Time to balance out...get healthy, enjoy good food in a beautiful hillside garden setting. The opposite element to the book's "fame" element of fire is water...which meanders down the garden and lunch spots. Go with the flow with water to recharge for all those career and life path choices one has to make upon return from vacation. The book found some cheerful bright red poinsettias to snuggle into for "red" company. A good balance of "water and fire" at the Kula Lodge with its brick oven pizza offerings and cool ice tea drinks!

Aloha from Maui! Time to re-charge, relax, and smell the orchids. Red is the color of energy...and Fur Shui was written here in Maui, good energy! Now, visiting just before its 2nd edition is released.

The book recently found itself on a foggy hike in Palos Verdes, CA. The Pacific Ocean is out there somewhere. Get your environment in order for the new year...don't remain in the "fog", get things cleared up, cleaned out and in order all set for the upcoming Chinese New Year of the Snake in February! Chi does not like clutter...ready set, get organized.

And now for a bit of "Hollywood" in Culver City Ca. at Sony studios. Fur Shui took a tour and found the land of "OZ" rainbow to enjoy as well as rubbed shoulders with Jeopardy host Alex Trebek...fame and fortune is the winning double jeopardy for your home's feng shui. All the "stars" feel very at home in the Fame life space with the color red and the number "1" being powerful energy movers for all who place them in this gua. The official car for "Ghostbusters" was also a favored site by Fur Shui. Feng Shui your auto with the passenger seat behind the driver being "helpful people". And of course, follow the "yellow brick road" to good health and balance! Oh my.

Fur Shui is really at home on the trails of "Tree People" along with a lot of responsible pet owners who walk the organization's trails in Los Angeles' Coldwater Canyon daily. Green is the color for family and community, this is a great reason to plant a tree so community can have shade, beauty and fresh air! Go Green, plant a tree and enjoy the good vibes of nature.
