The Three Secrets

Feng Shui offers a method to make changes through our intentions. This was secret knowledge for thousands of years and is called the "Three Secerets." Now this knowledge is available to all of us.Some find the principle of the “Three Secrets” esoteric or confusing. However, it is just a technique to clarify and focus intention. And to overcome skepticism and negative thoughts that can weaken your energy. The “Three Secrets” build your energy and focus it on a specific issue. Although Feng Shui gives us a specific ritual to perform, sometimes we get so caught up in performing an unfamiliar ritual perfectly that our focus is diverted from what we hope to accomplish. In my practice, my clients and I have had very good results using the basic principle of the "Three Secrets” but using it in terms of our own cultural heritage. The “Three Secrets” basic components are 1st, mind, 2nd, body, and 3rd, speech or visualization, touching and words. “The “Three Secrets” are generally used in conjunction with placing enhancements or adjustments but they also can be used alone.  Just write down your intention on a piece of paper and then proceed with the applying the “Three Secrets.”

A calm and peaceful frame of mind is very important. Take some deep breaths and clear your mind. Then focus your mind on your intention. Try to “see” as clear a picture of what you hope to accomplish as possible. This is not always easy for everyone to do. If you cannot visualize clearly, don’t worry about it. Just do the best you can. The second step is to connect the vision to the material world by using touch. The purpose here is to clear away the old energy where the new intentions or thoughts are being formed. In Feng Shui this is called the Mudra and has a specific form. But it is just as effective to use a hand motion that means clearing away to you. The next step is to say an affirmation out loud. In Feng Shui a common affirmation is Om Ma Ni Pad Me Hum or the “six true words” sometimes called the Mantra of Compassion. The purpose of the affirmation is to connect creative power to the conscious visualization process.  If the “six true words” do not have meaning to you, pick an affirmation that does. Using the “Three Secrets” technique imprints our intention on ourselves and on the universe.
