9 October 2016 Is Chong Yang Festival -- Step 2: Crystal Mountain

Chong Yang festival 重阳节 is coming this 9 October! Not as widely celebrated as its counterparts like Mid-Autumn or Winter Solstice, but it is no less significant, especially in terms of Chinese culture and fengshui.

What you need to know first is that Chong Yang is an extremely auspicious occasion. And you can prosper along with it. 3 things that you can do: 1st thing, have yourself a piece of Lotus agarwood, we talked about this; 2nd thing, place your crystal mountain.


If you haven't worked on your house or office fengshui, or you are on your way to make it even better, this is the occasion. Place your crystal mountain, at a specific advised spot, as the core pillar of your fengshui. 

But what has this got to do with Chong Yang? 

There's a folk practice. To celebrate Chong Yang, the ancients used to climb mountains 登高. There are many reasons to it, beautiful tales of vanquishing evil and recovering the light too, you can read more about it online. But what I think is this: Chong Yang is double "9", it's the ultimate yang. There are 9 fengshui numbers, and number 9 is the highest. To climb a mountain during Chong Yang festival might be a symbolic activity of attainment, of reaching the highest. Also, ultimate yang is tai-yang 太阳, literally meaning the sun as well. To reach the peak of a mountain might just be the closest one can get to the sun... 


Yes, Chong Yang is a season of attainment, of reaching out for the highest standards...but we can surely do better than a symbolic act of climbing a mountain. Let's do something that has genuine fengshui energy effect. Like, strengthening your mountain star.

The Lotus has series of crystal mountains. The basic category takes the exact form of a mountain, with steps and ladders, pine tree and houses...have one of them in your house to attain progression, benefactors and fulfilling relationships.
 

Something better, especially for those who own the Lotus Heaven and Earth jadeite rings. An upgrade from the basic category of crystal mountains, have either the Lotus Pineapple Dragon crystal charger or the Lotus crystal incense pot. While these also strengthen your mountain energy, you can also charge your Lotus Rings with them.


And since this is the double yang festival, might as well double your prosperity. Prosper both your mountain energy, and charge your Lotus Rings.

Huat double! Huat more!
