Everything has
an equal and exact opposite. Think in
terms of Yin and Yang, black and white.
JFK popularized the translation of Chinese characters signifying
‘crisis’ as “within every danger there exists opportunity.” In the Law of Polarity what this means is to
look for the good in every situation.
“No-one saves us but ourselves.
No-one can and no-one may.
We, ourselves must walk the path.”
Buddha
The Law of Polarity exists to allow
you to fully encompass all that this world has to offer. However, to experience everything this vast
and unlimited Universe has to offer you first have to understand both ends of
the spectrum of life.
Without knowing bad you would be
unable to experience or even know what good is.
Without understanding poverty, you would be unable to experience wealth. Without indifference you would be unable to
experience the beauty that is love. In Feng Shui the contrast exists as yin and
yang, dark and light, hard and soft and to create harmony balance these two
opposing but complementary forces in your living and working lives.
These opposites are sometimes also
referred to as ‘contrast.’ You are
contrasting, or comparing one thing against another.
In your day to day life it can be so
easy to perceive something that is happening as bad, however just as can be
seen in the yin/yang symbol, within every seed of ‘bad’ there is an element of good,
and vice versa. The challenge can be to
seek the good and focus on that rather than magnifying the bad, that is when
you can begin to take complete control of your life and your life experience.
We all have the potential to
manipulate each experience and turn it to our advantage. Doing this allows us to experience harmony
and a fulfilling, happy and abundant life.
Law
of Rhythm
This is flow; the ebb and flow of the energetic
universe. When it is resisted it causes negative blocks making the
attraction process stagnate. In Feng Shui, translated as wind and water,
the wind and the water move through and around anything they come into contact
with, they ‘go with the flow’ of the natural and man-made world. This is
the way to approach your life experience. Rather than resisting what is,
accept it and if changes are required make them with no resistance.
The easiest way to interpret
the Law of Rhythm is with the seasons of the year and what you see and
experience in each of them. Springtime
is the season for planting seeds, seeds that are nurtured through the summer
and harvested in the autumn, with winter allowing the land to rest after its
seasonal labours.
From a personal point of view,
if you are going through what you identify as a ‘bad time’ by the Law of Rhythm
this will be replaced by a ‘good time.’
Let go of attachment to the negative and the positive will replace it
much quicker. The longer you hold onto
something as though it is a lifeline, the longer it will stay with you.
The key is to relax, know with
absolute certainty that things will work out well, and get on with your
life. Identify the part of your life that is currently being
negatively affected, use one of the Feng Shui formulas, such as the Eight
Aspirations, to rectify it on a physical level in your home or your work
environment and sit back and relax in utter faith that the unseen is working on
your behalf to resolve whatever situation you feel you are experiencing.
To the
fulfillment of your dreams
