Feng Shui to help rebuild New Orleans?

The FENG SHUI MOVEMENT
PRE and POST the International Feng Shui COnference
San Diego, CA are two different species.

Before this HISTORIC LANDMARK CONFERENCE,
many of us in Feng Shui defined ourselves as practitioners of an energy model of Cures that had applications to energy within a home, landscape, some applicationsof healthy buildings, real estate, architecture, design, etc.

POST Aug 8, many more of us saw that we were involved in an Umbrella Movement inconsciousness drawing from many, many traditions, each with a Vital Energy model that went as deep inside as you can go to as far outside as you could go...Feng Shui has vital applications to relationship, to agriculture, to the rebuilding of cities, and nations wanting to come into alignment with peace on earth.

The Conference redefined and EXPANDED what it is to BE a Feng Shui Practitioners today and alerted many to the realizing that the ENCHANTED GARDEN is a name for our RENEWED EARTH itself that that we can each help with this renewal as we literally connect our Seeds--the seeds under our belts, with our deepest Seed Dreams and the growth of garden Seeds planted with deep intention.

Post Conference '05, We are each NOW Sustainable Living Innovators. A wholenew world awaits our service.

While the Conference was going on, The state of California was having a meeting at the Hilton San Diego Resort where the President of the chain was responding to the invite from Rosario Marin of the Waste Management Board to welcome the spending of $50 Million per year in State travel dollars at their hotels because they are willing to go GREEN. There is an extensive list of resources recommended on links from the State of CA site. This is an auspicious time in the history of Feng Shui as a career and a movement. We can each See ourselves as resources to the States, and to federal agencies who will be involved rebuilding the South Post Katrina. Any State that does not have Feng Shui experts on its team directing people like the Army Corps of Engineers, or working along side the Habitat for Humanity is negligent in planning. Any Feng Shui Practitioner who does not see opportunity here, is shortsighted and cutting themselves off from Fortunate Blessings that want to come our way. Acts of generous giving are called for this time from all of us who understand Feng Shui and its many applications.

If Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville, the founder of
New Orleans, had some Feng Shui Practitioners on his team
there would be a happier Mississippi River Delta region today
and about 10,000 lives saved. If current planners do not
take into account the kinds of expertise you have, we are
setting ourselves up to be further natural disasters waiting to happen.
I look forward to seeing Feng Shui Practitioners volunteering to be part
of the Habitat for Humanity project (see article below).

I will personally be recommending to the State of California a list of
Feng Shui Resources from the many who helped Co-sponsor
the Enchanted Garden Activities at the Recent Feng Shui Conference.

Subject: Habitat for Humanity to build homes in the Gulf

Habitat for Humanity

Habitat for Humanity is one of my favorite charities. The organization is planning a blitz building of new homes for those who have lost theirs in the Gulf region due to Hurricane Katrina.

KATRINA'S AFTERMATH
A Quick Delivery of Homes
Habitat for Humanity will build of thousands of houses for victims of the hurricane.

From Associated Press


COLUMBUS, Ga. ˜ Habitat for Humanity is laying the groundwork for its largest construction project yet, a blitz build of thousands of homes along the Gulf Coast for people left homeless by Hurricane Katrina.

Operation Home Delivery is expected to start later this month in Jackson, Miss., where volunteers will assemble housing frames and put them on trucks bound for Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi, the organization said.

About 30 volunteers per house will then do a blitz build, constructing each house in about a week.

More than $450,000 in donations has already poured in for the project, and more is expected.

Former President Carter, a Georgia native who has volunteered as a builder with Habitat for Humanity for more than 20 years, said this was the nonprofit organization's most important mission yet in the United States.

"Hurricane Katrina may be second only to the Asian tsunami in the amount of devastation, destruction and human suffering," Carter said.

"And just as with the tsunami, unprecedented destruction and suffering calls for an outpouring of generous response," Carter said.

Typically, Habitat for Humanity builds 1,200-square-foot homes with three bedrooms and one bathroom.

Costs for Operation Home Delivery are expected to average $66,000 per home, the organization said.

"These are not mansions by any means, but to the homeowners, they will be palaces," said Jonathan Reckford, Habitat's chief executive officer.
