What’s Your Space Telling You? Unlocking the Hidden Power of Symbolism and Feng Shui in Your Home

Your space speaks louder than you think—what is it saying about your energy?

It’s amazing how often we don’t realize how much our space is influencing us—until we stop to pay attention. Have you ever felt drained or stuck and wondered why? The truth is, the objects and images surrounding us are constantly communicating with our energy, whether we’re aware of it or not. Every single thing you see in your home or office carries meaning, and that meaning can either uplift or deplete your chi. 

Take a moment to really look around your space. Are there objects that inspire you, bring you comfort, or empower you to move toward your goals? Or are there things that feel heavy, stagnant, or draining? 

We want our environment to move us, inspire us, comfort us, or empower us. But what if your space is unconsciously reinforcing the very struggles you’re trying to overcome?

Notice the words and phrases you often use to describe your struggles – 

"I'm hitting a wall” 

Check your bed—does one side press against a wall, or do you walk into your home and face a wall right away?

“Not having enough energy” 

Clutter and random tchotchkes can block the flow of chi, making everything feel stagnant. A mattress directly on the floor can drain your life force. And if your home is filled with dim lighting, it could be adding to that ongoing sense of low energy.

"I can't see an important issue clearly" 

Take a look at your windows. In Feng Shui, windows represent the eyes. Make sure that your windows are clear and sparkling clean.

"Life feels like it's passing me by” 

Take a close look at your organization—or lack of it. Piles of unpaid bills, chaotic closets, or an overflowing junk drawer might be mirroring that overwhelmed, rushed feeling.

Recognizing these symbolic challenges is the first step. The mind recognizes the patterns, while adjusting your surroundings is the action—the physical aspect that the body takes. The spirit, in turn, visualizes the desired outcome, and in this case, it’s about recognizing the energetic power of words and their influence. When we make intentional design choices, it’s not just about aesthetics—it’s about energy. A small shift in your environment can create a massive shift in your mindset, your emotions, and ultimately, your life.

Take a moment. Look around. What messages is your space sending you? And more importantly—what messages are you ready to receive?
