Traditionally, the Chinese have used specific art and calligraphic drawings to bring auspicious meaning and energy into their homes. Paintings that are hung in the home will influence it’s energy, and working together with elemental sectors, they can have powerful impact on the quality of the home’s chi. One reader wrote to me about her experience with a painting that didn’t have very good meaning:
My husband (an artist) did a painting of a crying female clown. At all of the places and all the people who have had it there seems to have been bad luck. Is this bad Feng Shui? If it is, would you please advise us on what to do to rid the possible evil spirit. We have disposed of the painting but still have the frame it was in. When the painting was taken out of the frame and was viewed from the back the face had a different expression and looked extremely evil.
Surely when this painting was made, her poor husband must have had a lot of sad emotions to express - so not only did it symbolise sadness, it was embued with very sad energy indeed. I couldn’t stress more that paintings like these should not be passed on, and hung anywhere. The best thing is to burn them so that all the unfavourable chi on it dies with it.
