Daily Feng Shui Tip for Saturday, April 10

'Brothers and Sisters' ain't just a Sunday night TV show! In fact it's the energy celebrated today on 'National Sibling Day.' If you've read these tips you already know that both of my brothers and my sister mean the world to me. They're my family and my very best friends. However, thinking back on days gone by, I can recall times when blood wasn't thicker than water, but in fact often flowed freely after one of our family free for alls. There were times where rivalry ruled and the four of us would go at it like we were competing for a WWF belt, right before my father would threaten the four of us with his leather one. But it was my mother who was always the voice of reason during those testy times, which makes sense since most of the time we were only vying for her undivided attention anyway. I find it funny and ironic that even though my son is an only child, whenever his close friends come to call, they seem to inevitably start some tussle that brings me back to the future since I usually have to break them up. But calm can only occur after one of them breaks out a sob story aimed at garnering my sympathy and full attention. And all but one of them doesn't even belong to me! Sibling rivalry is as old as Cain and Abel and can bring anxiety into anyone's Garden of Eden. Feng Shui says that you can take action steps to prevent or even annihilate the energies associated with this state simply by placing a smooth and rounded crystal under the beds of all the kids who routinely sleep at home. One crystal per child should be placed on the floor at the foot of the bed on the same side the child sleeps on. Leave this 'cure' in place for at least 27 days or even as long as the kids find their own sweet dreams under your roof. It might not make every day a holiday, but it'll go a long way towards making sibling relationships more loving while also kicking ribald rivalries in the, um, 'buttocks.' Yeah, that's what I meant to say -- buttocks! At least rivalry will, for a while anyway, be the only thing getting kicked around! And so it is!
