FEBRUARY, THE MONTH of love, Ithought I would take this opportunity to

address some of the questions many of youhave sent in asking about how Feng Shuican help with romance.

I have been saving your frequentlyasked questions for over a year now, wait-ing for the most opportune time to answer!What better month than February?

So, let’s get started! The principles ofFeng Shui can help you in the romancedepartment also!

A female reader wanted to know how tobring in a new love, she felt she was nowready for romance after a bitter divorce.

The first thing I would recommend is toget rid of all items that remind you of yourformer husband. If at all possible I wouldbuy new bedroom furniture. If financesdon’t allow that to happen right now, then,I would strongly suggest buying a new setof sheets for the bed. Pink sheets are best ifyou want to attract romance into your life.

At the same time, I would advise thatyou start saving money for new bedroomfurniture. The reason for this is: a couplewho has been fighting and arguing, thatenergy stays in the bed. This is after allwhere we spend the most amount of ourdaily lives -- sleeping or having intimate

relations. Buying a new bed will allow youto begin anew with a new partner.

I would urge this reader to get a spraybottle, fill it with purified water, add freshlemon juice with a few drops of lavenderessence and spray the whole house, espe-cially the areas where most of the argu-ments took place. This cure can be used byanyone, any time there is an argument inyour home, you can quickly refresh yourenvironment with this easy remedy.

A male reader wanted to know how tobring that spark back into their romanticlife? He felt he and his wife were the bestof friends and really enjoyed each other’scompany, but the sizzle factor was definite-ly missing!

The first thing you need to do is; makesure your bedroom is an oasis, no workoutequipment or work related items should bepresent in the bedroom. Your bedroomneeds to be inviting so that romance has aplace to bloom! It’s best to keep your bed-

room clear of clutter. Romantic imagery isa must, something where two figures arewalking hand-in-hand near the ocean orlocked in an embrace. This sets the tone foran intimate rendezvous!

Last but certainly not least, go out on adate with your wife! Take the initiative,book a babysitter ahead of time, makereservations at her favorite restaurant, per-haps even ask her to pack an overnight bagand head to a local hotel. Display the “donot disturb” sign and rekindle the fire fromyour early dating days!

Another question that came in was howto equalize a marriage that seemed one per-son had more power in the relationship.This one is easy -- the person who has thelarger nightstand or larger lamp in the bed-room will always have more power in aromantic relationship. Switch out the largerlamp or piece of furniture for comparablesize items and then watch for the relation-ship to become more egalitarian.

I enjoy your questions and apologize if Ididn’t get to yours, send me your questionsto sunita@sunitasitara.com and I would behappy to send you a personal reply! Keepin mind, your bedroom needs to be a sanc-tuary. This is where your romantic relation-ship blossoms!
