Fengshui and Pets

Pets are considered positive (yang) in Fengshui because they add activity to our homes. The love we put into caring for our pets also generate positive energy to our living environment. But when pets dominate your life, the result can be an upset in the natural balance that is critical to good Fengshui. Please take note of the following , if you own a pet at home.

1. Never Allow Your Pets ON FURNITURE – unless the furniture is meant for them.  

2. Never Allow Your Pets ON THE BED, particularly for newlywed couples. This divides the couple and sometimes affects the relationship. It would be better if you can keep your pet out from the bedroom.

3. Never Allow your Animals BE THE FIRST THING YOUR GUEST SEE When ENTERING THE HOUSE. Use Pets to enhance a home, not dominate it.  If your hamster cage is the first thing your guest can see – or smell – when he/she entering your home, it’s a Fengshui problem.

4. YOUR Pets Should Never COME BEFORE ANYONE ELSE. Feng shui is all about balance.  If pets are completely superior, then balance doesn’t exist. For example , if you paste pictures of your pets all over the house, you may have difficulties in finding a life partner . 

5. Avoid Having Pets If You Have HEALTH PROBLEMS. People, who suffer from all kinds of health complaints, should not keep pets to bothering them.  If the animals fur is all the house, this is not healthy.

6.  USE YOUR PETS TO STRENGHTEN YOUR FENG SHUI. Have a loving pet is good for you.  But, the pet must also be good for the entire family or even neighbourhood. Make sure the pet is friendly, clean, and do not bother your relationships or people around you. 

If you don’t feed, bathe and nurture your pet properly, the Fengshui of your house will suffer. You may not realize it, the way you treat people, pets and plants is very important for your own self-image and well being.
