About Mariah Herself

Hey there, I’m Mariah. 

​

I believe that our inner and outer worlds reflect and affect one another. Feng Shui helps us connect with both harmoniously. (If you’re wondering how to pronounce Feng Shui… “Fung Shway.”) Feng Shui is an art form, wisdom tradition, and collection of philosophies from China.

​

As a Certified Feng Shui Consultant, I help you analyze and improve the supportive quality of your living or working spaces. 

​

I am just an interested learner and curious, thoughtful observer.  I am continually studying philosophies, arts, and sciences, and exploring them in my life.  I am not a religious figure, therapist, or physician.  I am fellow traveler sharing my knowledge, thoughts and experiences to help guide you and inspire you along your journey.  

​

Feng Shui principles act as language, art, and science, offering understanding about why some places feel good, and some places drain us or have us itching to get out. It is not about having perfect interior design, but rather enriching yourself and your environment.

​

Interpreting the symbols of your space and the art of arrangement, we work collaboratively to uncover valuable insights. We use these philosophies to inform choice making that influences the quality of our environments.

 

Practicing feng shui open up doors of knowledge that inform and empower you to live in connection and harmony to nature, yourself, and your environment. 

​

Are you ready to listen to your environment and inner voice? 

Are you ready to start creating the life you want?

9 Star Ki: 
Your Element Archetypes

​​​​

 

“We are born at a given moment, in a given place, and like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season in which we are born.” - Carl Gustav Jung

​

The 9 Star Ki is a sort of a numerology and astrology from China and Japan. From your birthdate we can ascertain 3 basic energy profiles about you - sort of like a personality test. I like thinking of them as Element Archetypes, representing energy expression styles. 

​

The predominant philosophy informing the 9 Star Ki is an East Asian concept Wu Xing, the 5 movements, commonly called the 5 Elements. They function a bit like the game rock, paper, scissors. The five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water, represent different characteristics of energy, supporting and controlling each other. These are both actual elements, and powerful descriptive symbols.

​

Together, we explore these symbols in your life to uncover and appreciate real truths about you.  

​

I use the The Ki to offer insight and ideas about your inherent element instincts and expression styles. We look to your birthdate to see what basic energies you are prone to expressing as your basic nature, your inner world, and your outer self. 

​

Inspired by the before mentioned Carl Jung quote, what qualities describe the vintage of you? 

​

More important is the unfolding exploration and appreciation of the magic and mystery of you - the unique dimensions you take on and embody.

We can use the Ki to look for clues and keywords, but that flavor is all you. 

​

​

WHAT TO EXPECT:

For your reading, you'll fill out a short form and send me your birthdate (MM/DD/YYYY) to calculate your personal element archetypes. We will meet at our scheduled time to talk about them, and I'll send you a written document for reference.

What's a Feng Shui Consultation Like?

​

After booking, you’ll receive an intake form. Questions are geared to get you thinking about how you’re relating with your space, and what you’re wanting for yourself.  This gives us direction for your session.

​

You’ll need to submit a signed drawing of your floorplan. Get acquainted with your space, and draw your floorplan as accurately to scale as possible.  Photos and videos of your space are welcome! 

 

After that you’ll kick back until your booked online appointment. We will meet at our scheduled time, in person or online, and use your intake form to guide our discussion.  I’ll share my opinions and offer ideas, and we will work together to decide on any adjustments.​
