Christmas 2023, candles and fragrances for the environment, the perfect gift
They are among the most classic, and very often appreciated, gifts that can be given at Christmas: candles and room perfumes in general are always popular. Even more so the winter ones, often in limited editions, with tailor-made packs and joyful notes that immediately create an atmosphere.
But, inside a room, where to place candles and air fresheners? If you have any doubts, Feng Shui comes to the rescue. The ancient Chinese philosophy of energy harmonization has been “used” for centuries to furnish one’s home and essences are an imported part according to this philosophy.
The basic concept of Feng Shui is to focus on the energy present in every environment and improve it thanks to the particular arrangement of the objects, thus having a positive impact on health and the well-being of those who live in the house.
Candles, according to Chinese philosophy, are not only light bearers but they positively influence the environment and personal mood thanks to their aroma. Because of this they must be placed in very specific points in space.
Where to place Christmas candles, and more, according to Feng Shui
Chinese philosophy divides the home into specific areas that are linked to a different and important part of our lives. Placing candles, and essences in general, in these specific areas activates positive energies that will influence your life. For example, to stimulate wealth and prosperitycandles and essences should be arranged in the south-east corner of the house, or the room, and they should smell like cinnamon, sandalwood or jasmine that attract abundance.
Rose, ylang-ylang and vanilla instead, they are the three ideal notes for those who, in the new year, want a bit of romance and a more harmonious life. They are located in the south-west corner of the House. To attract positive energies regarding health and family, the most “auspicious” notes are eucalyptus and lemon because they create a healthy and clean atmosphere, and must be placed towards the east.
North candles to stimulate career and personal growth
Support for work in the new year? Candles facing north, giving off energizing aromas such as rosemary and peppermint which increase mental concentration. Lavender and patchouli, on the other hand, are suitable for stimulating imagination and creativityespecially if the aromas come from the north-east.
A final tip not to be underestimated in Feng Shui: the candles must be arranged in groups of threea number associated with fulfillment and abundance, and placed on a saucer for a complete idea of positive energy and wholeness.
