Applying Feng Shui Principles to Your Car

<h1>Applying Feng Shui Principles to Your Car</h1>Author: <a title="Guile Canencia" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/guile-canencia/87153.htm">Guile Canencia</a> Feng shui may be an ancient practice but it doesn’t mean you can’t use its core principles and apply them to your favorite set of wheels.  And come to think of it, it does make perfect sense to optimize the positive energy inside something you spend some time in everyday. Here’s a brief rundown of some simple things you can do: The Way of the Water. Water is pure and free-flowing. Adapt these qualities by keeping a bottle of water inside your car. Plus, you’ll never go thirsty! Tidy Up! Get rid of all the unwanted stuff — candy wrappers, cigarette cases, old receipts, empty bottles, etc — and make your car spic-and-span! Doing so will give you more freedom of movement and more space. Purge Negativity! Of course, you can always start by thinking positively. Then you can make use of certain time-tested agents and tokens of positivity like sweet grass, seasalt or you could hang a crystal on a blue ribbon on your rearview mirror. Heaven Scent! Keep the air inside your car fresh and clean. Lemon is a good choice, so is rosemary. Always go for organic instead of artificial. Get by with a little help from your animal friends. Dragons are supposed to be good protectors against evil elements. Of course, finding a real dragon may not be that easy, you can choose to put a cute dragon stuffed toy on the dashboard instead. Affirm! Never underestimate the power of affirmation. Scribble an affirmation phrase on a piece of paper, e.g. “I got the coolest ride in town!”, and put it in your glove compartment or better yet, glue it on your steering wheel. And before you know it, you already have the coolest car in town! Know your color! Go red if you’re ambitious. Pick silver or gold if you hunger for adventure. If you’re constantly afflicted with wanderlust, paint your car violet or green. If you’re the type who likes to get down to business all the time, then blue or black is the color for you.
