2012 North - Eliminate Sickness Energy
2012 Challenging Feng Shui Areas in Your Home (or Office) (c) Donna Karan for Neiman Marcus
The North bagua area in 2012 is hosting the so-called illness star # 2. The feng shui element of the visiting star is Earth and the element of the North bagua area is Water. In the five feng shui elements theory Water, Wood and Metal elements are used to weaken the Earth, so the choice of best cures for North in 2012 are based on these elements.

Here's how to neutralize the challenging 2012 North feng shui energies:
  • Introduce Metal element decor cures here to support the Water of the North area and to weaken the Earth element of the challenging annual star. You can go for a metal singing bowl, for example, a metal Wu Lou gourd, six Chinese coins, or any metal decor item, preferably with round/circular shapes.

  • North area in 2012 is also a good bagua area to place your salt water cure or just a bowl of clean water (be sure to keep it fresh and clean).

  • Avoid Fire element decor items here because Fire energy only strengthens the challenging 2012 star that you want to weaken (Fire feeds the Earth element of this star.) Avoid strong bright lights here, prominent triangular shape decor items, as well as candles.

  • Feel free to decorate your North area with the colours of Water and Metal elements (blue, black, white, tray and all metallic finishes.)
