Manifesting Using Feng Shui and Crystals
with Nancy Canestaro and Nancy Val Verde
Date/Time:  TBA
Cost:  $40

Many of us have read the books on setting intentions for a better life. One of the toughest tasks, though, can be how to remain focused on what you want. There are many books that guide you in initially framing your aspirations. But few counsel as to how to stay focused over time. What’s really needed are props or cues in the right places as a constant reminder of what you want. Natural energy patterns in a house in combination with crystal remedies can help you focus on a goal. But how do you determine what the objects for manifesting should be and where they should be located? That’s where Feng Shui in conjunction with hermetic astrology can make a difference.

Typical life aspirations include wealth, health, career, fame, creativity, relationships, family, and knowledge. Feng Shui uses a nine square grid (bagua) that is laid over a floor plan of a home. Crystals are a powerful stimulus for manifesting what you want when used in the right place. But how do you know which crystals to use and where? Hermetic astrology is a tool for generating your own personal chart and includes information on which crystals could help you focus on your goal and where in your home to place them. Crystals act as a bridge between your personal energy (astrology) and the energy of the space (Feng Shui.)

Call the Rhama Center, 865-357-9642, to register for this workshop with Nancy Canestaro and Nancy Val Verde. If possible, before the workshop, email Nancy Val Verde at nanval2@hotmail.com with your birth time, date, and place for a copy of your astrology chart and list of relevant crystals to use in the process. Also send a drawing of the outline of the outside walls of your home, with the front door, the entry you use, and most important, the direction out the back of your house (S, SW, W, NW, N, NE, E, or SE) noted on the drawing. We will have the crystals and Feng Shui information you need at the workshop to set up the process. Also, there are many, many wonderful crystals at Rhama  for purchase to aid in the process.
