ENERGY OF A HOME

[Golden_Angel_K]

The Dwelling Pulse

Our homes are filled with energy that we create and allow to flourish.
In many cases, our relationship with the pulse of our homes is passive
...rather than active because we do not pay particular heed to the energy
that has been established. It is only when we regard these spaces as
unique entities that we begin to understand why it is necessary to take
charge of the energy that fills our homes. Stagnant, inharmonious energy
can find its way into our dwellings through many avenues. Previous
occupants, builders, visitors, and the individuals who maintain a home
leave a strong energy imprint behind. Objects and symbols can also have
an effect on the energy of a residence. When we are aware of all that
can influence the energy of our spaces, we are empowered to create
harmonious homes that do more than meet our need for shelter.

Exercising care with regard to who and what we invite into our homes is
one of the easiest ways we can ensure that the energy within remains
loving and supportive. It is not always possible to keep potentially
harmful people and possessions from entering our homes, but we can take
precautions. Individuals can be kept from private spaces like bedrooms
and meditation areas, while property can be purified through cleansing
or smudging. During periods of remodeling or construction, Reiki symbols
and other positive imagery can be printed on surfaces that will later
be covered by walls or flooring. Though hidden, these will continue to
attract good energy and cleanse the existent energy. Blessings can also
be drawn in plain sight, where they remind us of how potently our home's
energy can affect our own.

A home can appear beautiful, comfortable, and stable while still serving
as a dwelling place for negative or otherwise offensive energy. If you
care for your home conscientiously and with great care, you will
instinctively look beyond the surface qualities of your home when
assessing how it feels. Since you actively guard your home against the
intrusion of unwelcome energy, you will have the time and vigor
necessary to cope with it constructively when should it appear in your
midst. The spirit of your spaces will respond to your thoughtful
ministrations, nurturing and supporting you for as long as you choose to
reside within her walls.
