We are constantly being encouraged to watch what we eat, regularly exercise and generally be aware of our health. What about the way the things we surround ourselves with affect our health?
The Bureau of Labor and Statistics tells us, on average, men and women spend a total of about four to five hours doing leisure, household and eating and drinking activities at home out of their average work day. Wouldn’t you want this time spent at home to be as comfortable and healthy as possible?
An ancient Chinese art and science developed over three-thousand years can be just the answer you’re looking for.
Feng Shui, at its most basic form, reveals how to balance the energies of any given space to assure the health and good fortune for people inhabiting it – with the core resting in the power of light.
Light, as being the number one nutrient in replenishing our bodies, is the strongest manifestation of energy and directly influences the quality of your home’s feng shui.
Chandeliers, which are commonly used as ornate lighting fixtures, can contribute toward a very fruitful feng shui arrangement when incorporated it to your home’s overall aesthetic design and appearance. By making sure the position of your lighting is correctly placed and designed, it can help create a more harmonious mood that will have an effect not only on the home’s design, but also upon the occupants of the space.
It is important to keep in mind the mood you’re trying to set when choosing the perfect chandelier. Many options are to be considered such as color of light bulbs as well as shape and color of crystals. The right color will produce the ideal environment. Such as pink shades for romance, purple shades for wealth or red shades for fame.
Placing these chandeliers in areas that need lighting can help encourage positive energy flow. The location of the chandeliers can also become a factor in how chi flows in the space; for example, if you place your fixture in the middle of a narrow hallway you will slow down fast-moving chi.

Chandeliers enhance the look and feel of your home lighting. When it comes to buying and hanging chandeliers, it is important to familiarize yourself with the different terms used to describe aspects of a chandelier. This will help you to determine the best chandelier for your home. Acquaint yourself with the following terms when buying your new chandelier to increase your buying experience.
Arm
The branches of crystal light fixtures are also known as arms. This is the portion of the chandelier that extends out and looks like the chandelier is reaching to all sides of the room. The light-bearing section of the light fixture is found on the arm. Each arm is placed into an arm plate, which is a block that keeps it held in place.
Finial
As the name suggests, a finial is the finishing touch of any crystal light fixture. Located at the bottom of the stem, the finial offers an attractive accent to the rest of the fixture. A finial is the ideal addition to any crystal chandelier and brings the appeal to the next level.
Tent
Tents are placed on the upper portion of a glass chandelier to anchor glass sections that hang down below the light fixture. These canopy-shaped features add elegance and design to glass chandeliers.
Waterfall
This term describes a chandelier style that provides an amazing aesthetic appeal. These crystal chandeliers have icicle drops that are hung beneath the light fixture. Waterfalls give an amazing visual effect that is enhanced when the chandelier is illuminated.
