Moving Spaces

When moving to a new space, we need to ensure the process is smooth and energising. The perception of auspiciousness of a space can be influence by the events happening during the move. This is why a good moving date is chosen for this important activity.

There are 2 types of moving:

1. Personal space
2. Working space

There are some key elements for both types of moving that are same, we shall understand this first.

1. Fire. Fire is prepared in a stove to represent purification of everything that crosses it.
2. Coins. Coins from different countries to be rolled into usher in abundance and income from them.
3. Oranges. The word orange has a meaning of gold in the mandarin language. To roll in gold is to bring abundance and wealth.
4. Pineapple. To symbolise luck and prosperity rolling into the space. It is also represented by the mandarin word.
5. Rice Pot. This represents food and luck. There are 2 scenarios that the client need to choose: 
   • If the client wants to have fresh and a new beginning, then the rice pot should be filled with a few cups of raw uncooked grains of rice. This pot will be cooked at the new space during the moving process.
   • If the client wants to bring forward his luck and continue with his success, then the rice pot needs to be cooked at the current space, and brought over to the new space, and kept warm for consumption after the moving process.
6. Clothing. Represent the members of household or office staff.
   • For home, clothing of each member need to be prepared if this person is not attending the event.
   • For office, the staff should be present to celebrate this joyous occasion.
7. Pillow or Working Equipment.
   • For home, the pillow represents the place of rest, recovery, and wellbeing.
   • For office, working equipment represent productivity, motivation, and goodwill.
8. Sweet Desserts. Represent the condition of happiness and sweet conversation. When the dessert is shared during the moving, it represents the relationship and bond as everyone working together moving into this new space. The sweetness of the dessert represents the sweetness of words said now and in the future.
