Tidy bags for free energy flow

Have you ever thought that the principles of feng shui can be applied to almost anything? This week let us do the feng shui of your handbag or briefcase. One of the most important principles is to have a clutter-free bag to allow a good flow of energy. Try to minimise your belongings inside the handbag because if you have too many things it is almost impossible to be tidy and well organised. While purchasing handbags you should select several matching or complimentary smaller bags for things you might carry in. Segregate your belongings according to their requirement and utility. Keep your money in a red wallet along with three Chinese coins that are tied together with a red thread. There is a special way to create trinity — luck of heaven, earth and human —by tying these coins in a triangular pattern. Important documents, papers and tickets should be placed in a yellow small bag. Yellow is the colour of earth element that will help to keep these important papers safe. Zip pocket within the bag should contain only two things like a little white coloured notebook and a pen so that you do not have to scribble around. White symbolises clarity and can help you to totally focus on the day’s agenda. Ideally you need more than one handbag but never keep too many as one tends to accumulate clutter. Hence, one should have a small size bag for daily use, because the bigger the bag the more tempted you are to stuff in. Choice of colours influences one’s personality. According to Chinese astrology, each colour has a significant influence on each individual depending on their date of birth, but as a general rule different colours are connected with different elements. The colours black and white are perhaps the only two colours that are used universally in handbags. Black belongs to the water element and represents power and money. It absorbs all the negative energy and gives you the much-required power. The colour white has an essence of purity. It is believed that a person using white handbag is always open to new suggestions as white is a non-colour, which simply radiates all the other colours. On the contrary a person using a red handbag will be looking for excitement and adventure in life. Red and orange are the colours of love and passion. Only vibrant and lively natured people can afford to carry such a strong coloured bag. The colour green in a handbag has an accent of evolution. The green handbag represents travel and growth. Someone carrying a green handbag is looking for a relationship that involves a lot of outdoor activity. On the other hand a person looking for a long lasting traditional relationship based on truth and honesty should use a blue coloured handbag. Blue is the colour that represents truth, sincerity and support.
