Feng-Shui in your place of business is as important as in your home. The most important determinant is to try to protect your back from either an open door, other desk or a window. Try to place your desk in a commanding position, but not aiming at colleagues because this could create an unconscious feeling of hostility.

The area around your immediate work space should be neat and free from clutter. Especially at floor level it is helpful to group together wires to that they don’t create a mass of crossed and conflicting energies.

“Desk clutter” might be near impossible to avoid, but you should try to guard against semipermanent piles of paper. Try to sort through it at least once every few days. Any pile of paper that is consistently ignored will accumulate a negative chi.

If you have an office to yourself, you have opportunity to work in northern sector to enhance your career or south east sector to enhance your wealth. Try to avoid sharp angled desk lights. A curved neck banker’s lamp is better. Book cases should be kept neat or be cover by doors to avoid cutting Sha,

The attractiveness of entrance to place of business cannot be over -stressed. The reception area just inside door should be welcoming and free of clutter.

Since Valentine’s Day will be here in less than a week, I thought it’d be a good idea to talk about love in this newsletter.

Many years ago, Joseph defined love this way:

“The choice to see divinity in all beings.”

At time that didn’t make much sense to me. In fact, it made almost no sense. But over years I’ve come to see wisdom and power in that definition.

The very word, “love,” often conjures up so many confusing and conflicting images and feelings in our human minds. Especially in seemingly chaotic and trying times our planet is experiencing today.

So I asked Joseph to revisit that earlier definition of love from so long ago.

Chief Joseph

We have often used term “All That Is” to mean what many of you call God -- Goddess -- Great Spirit -- etc. We prefer term “All That Is” because it really says it all.

Whatever word or image you have of that divine creative energy, it doesn’t really matter. What does matter is that energy created every being, entire universe, and every minute particle of that universe.

And that divine creative energy is part of -- is essence of -- everything that exists, has ever existed, or will ever exist. In other words, all that is.

God is all that is. It’s that simple.
