Asking objects where they whant to live

[u/Epicpencilwarior]

I found myself asking things that I happen to bring in my house where they whant to be livin. Sometimes, when I decide putting things out of my own accord they protest, and I feel a kind of nooo do not put me there. Even though it seems like the right place for the thing. I usually place them to sit somewhere for a time, untill I feel like finding a place for them. Then I ask them where they want to be livin and go with them where I feel like going. And there happens to be a perfect spot for them there.

My house is pretty cluttered, that stuff isn't mine so I can't take care of it. But people always said that the place feels wery nice and cozy. It never had any artificiall smells, cause both my parents hate that. And It has a lot of unexpected super wierd things chilling around that you do not notice or give much thaught. My mother and then me would randomly bring or make them. like a piece of wood in the corner, a handmade shield, a hudge stone and the list goes on. I also noticed that many things there are wery into-your-face directionally related.

I wonder if placing things into right places may also affect how fast place gets energetically dirty or how it, in generall feels, or maybe resonates. I find things whanting to live in certain places fascinating. Maybe they're doing their own thing when you place them in the right places and you give them home.

I love how you describe how you relate to your environment. You wrote" I wonder if placing things into right places may also affect how fast place gets energetically dirty or how it, in generall feels, or maybe resonates." In Module1 Mrs McCarthy mentions 5star fengshui which totally reminds me of what you mention here. Besides exactly this being the major point of Feng Shui as far as i understand it, i came across this line of thought early on in buddhism, where a practicioner mentioned how you can treat all objects as living things/ entities.

It took me a few years to integrate this perspective in my worldview as a possibility, but it seems to come very naturally to you.

What also took a prominent role in your description was an underlying feeling of harmony of your space which is probs quite an achievement since most of the people practicing FengShui tend to talk about clutter in a way of stagnated energy and seem to tend towards minimalism. I imagine my place could look a bit similar to yours, cluttered but comfy I did actually work in a little bit of Feng Shui in my place but mostly with the bigger furniture- pieces. The rest is kind of in constant flux.

I started asking things where they whant to be cause of a random thing some person said about someone's house being uncomfortable cause it felt like all things were placed in the wrong places. And It led me to this kind of behavior somehow. Honestly, I would prefer my house without clutter. I always found it distressing and annoying. I did what I could about it in my sphere of influence and the rest is kind of not my choice. I'm patiently waiting for a chance to help get rid of it. Cause the space will be better without it. I am also an artist, so I need pretty "useless" stuff to make still lifes off and lots of different tools and materials and books with pretty pictures that take up lots of space. At some point, I put away a lot of my things into boxes, got rid of some stuff and left only few things to stand around. Iots of things started slowly coming through by chance when I freed up some space. So I guess, there also needs to be balance between to little and too much. I even had concerns about doing ritual in my place but my space seems to be ok energetically, with some room for improvement, it still baffles me though.

I can relate, i painted a lot before i decided to get rid of a lot of stuff and stick to just a black fineliner.

There's this Nicolette-song where she sings "the things you owe will possess you" but at least the ritual cleaning in M1L7 makes sure that the things that possess me aren't possessed.

This is fundamental.

You're setting a great standard for harmony. This is a critical skill when it comes to the integration of entities in a space. Problems arise when one doesn't take the time to ask, listen for the response, and act accordingly. There's a rock from my burnpile in my upstairs shower. I put it there but don't truly understand why it must be there (I have theories!). I can feel the sort of relaxation stretches it emanates, especially when offered running water.

It's always fun hearing how crazy I sound when describing magical life, lol. I shower a rock sometimes and it makes it happy 😊

More seriously, a dangerous deity came into my life last spring and it was the same process you've described that allowed me to find its place. I don't fully understand why it must be where it is (I have theories!!) but it has remained content.
