Episode 358: Feng Shui Qi Forecast: December 2025

<description>&lt;p class="" data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;"&gt;This week, we explore the theme of gratitude through the lens of Feng Shui, highlighting how cultivating thankfulness—especially during the holiday season—can enrich well-being and strengthen relationships. We share a simple Feng Shui gratitude ritual that involves choosing a meaningful object and writing a note of thanks, then connecting these intentions to specific areas of the Bagua mandala.
