Feng Shui-y things

One of my favourite astrology pages, Mystic Medusa, posted an entry called The Peach Blossom Remedy a little while back. Apparently it is notorious in Feng Shui in attracting love/lust into your life, although it carries a warning about the 'quality' you might get. Now, I don't know a great deal about Feng Shui apart from the basic theories behind it, and had never really applied any of the principles to my life. Apart from having no clutter under the bed. And having the foot of your bed not facing the door in your bedroom.

Anyway, since the latter half of 2011 was not the finest time in my life with regards to the L words, I thought there would be no harm in giving the Peach Blossom Remedy a shot. Detailed instructions on how to carry it out are here. According to this site, my direction is west, and I am to use 7 flowers of white or yellow, in a white, yellow or metal vase. Done.

And what happened? Nada. So I just left it, kind of forgot about this silly vase of white flowers sitting in the most westerly part of my unit (which is my study). Then I heard from one ex out of the blue. Then another. Then someone I had dated a while back who just disappeared off the radar with no explanation. And then I met someone in a completely random way which I find difficult to define. It may mean something, it may mean absolutely nothing. It's intriguing and unnerving and fantastic and serendipitous? I don't know. But I like it. So I don't really care whether it was as a result of my Feng Shui or simply coincidence.

I looked at the vase today. I had bought the flowers weeks ago. The "7" are still going strong - no petals falling, still healthy looking. The remainder of the bunch died ages ago.
