24 The Piper & Feng Shui

What, you may be wondering, does the Piper have to do with Feng Shui? I have to admit that it isn't a connection I'd ever made before. He is about making your own music, singing your own song. Of course, that presupposes that you know what your theme is...

Tonight, I drew a card with the rather open-ended question of "what would the fae like me to know just now?" The Piper looked thoughtful, and allowed as how I wasn't paying attention to my "theme"—the melody of my life. He said, "You're trying so hard not to sing the blues that you aren't singing anything. You need to think about what you want to be singing. "

I hadn't thought of it that way, but he's right. And he was also right when he looked at me thoughtfully and said, "You know, everything is song—it's the basis of life. One of the ways you sing is through Feng Shui. It's how you create a visual energy song around you."

I'm moving house just now, reluctantly, and doing all the things I have to do to make that happen. But what I haven't done at all is to consider the feng shui of the place I'm moving into. Well, it faces south—that's a good start. But the theme? I haven't thought yet what I'd like to accomplish while I'm there. How do I want the balance to be? What is important to do, to be, to live for these next months to come?

He suggests that I go there, sit quietly for a while, and just sing. Now, he and I both know that singing isn't something I do well at all, but it is something I enjoy doing as long as no one is there to listen except the fae, who are more interested in the energy and the message than in my lack of tunefulness. So, tomorrow (it's too late tonight) I shall go down to the new place in the morning and sing and, hopefully, I'll find my theme.

I always get more done when I know where I'm trying to go. It isn't about chosing a direction so much as it is about recognizing the direction that is best for me at this moment. I'll see if I can sing my eyes open and see the path...
