Using the Bagua for Setting Intentions
In the past few days as I have meditated about my intentions and goals for the next year and beyond, I have captured my thoughts in a list format. My next step is to take a big piece of posterboard and divide it into 9 squares. Then I label the squares according to the bagua: Creativity and Children, Helpful People and Travel, Career, Wisdom and Knowledge, Family, Prosperity, Fame and Reputation, Love and Relationship, and Health (Center).
After my posterboard is ready, I write each goal/intention on a sticky note. I put the sticky note in the most appropriate square. For example, my trip to Florida in March will go in the Helpful People and Travel square, my financial goals end up in the Prosperity square and the new projects I’m starting this year go in the Creativity and Children square.
When I am finished, I can see how many goals I have in each area. If there is an area that has no goals in it, I will usually create one. If there’s an area with *lots* of goals, I consider this my hotspot. I look at that area of my home with a critical eye. Is it set up to suppport my new goals and intentions? If not, I know this area needs clutter clearing, a check-up on the balance of the five elements and a review of what everything in the space is symbolizing.
