Very soon the New Year will come - a time of new achievements, ideas and achievements. Everything old must be left in the past year, and the new one must be met exclusively with positive thoughts, without any burden on the soul, joyfully and cheerfully.
The Chinese teaching of Feng Shui professes the ideals of positivity, pure thoughts and harmony of the soul. Celebrating the New Year in a good mood, in a good mood, with a pleasant thrill of anticipation will bring success, happiness and health.
We begin to prepare for the upcoming New Year's Eve in advance. We buy and hide gifts, decorate rooms, install and decorate the Christmas tree, prepare a festive dinner and set the New Year's table. All this creates a festive atmosphere and positive energy around us.

How to decorate a Christmas tree in 2020 according to Feng Shui
The place where the green beauty will stand depends on what you want to receive in the coming year. Which area of life needs activation the most?
For example:
- South-East of the room - wealth
- South - glory
- South-West – love, marriage
- East - family
- West – children, creativity
- Northeast – wisdom, knowledge
- North - career
- North-West – helpers, travel
After the place for the Christmas tree has been determined, we begin to decorate.
Mandatory Feng Shui decorations on the Christmas tree should be:
- Red flashlight with tassel
- Coin with a hole on a red ribbon
- Rat figurine
- To attract love, you need to hang a lot of hearts and paired figures.
- To improve your financial situation, you need to hang something in gold with the image of banknotes
There is one simple way to fulfill wishes in the New Year according to Feng Shui. It is believed that if you hang a picture on the Christmas tree depicting what you want to receive in the new year, your wish will come true.
For example, I really want to have the opportunity to buy my own house. When drawing a house on a piece of paper, you need to imagine how you choose it, move in, and celebrate the housewarming. Then hang the picture on the Christmas tree.
Or another desire is to have your own car. In this case, you need to draw a car and imagine yourself driving it.
Then we hang it on the Christmas tree and wait for a miracle.
The main condition for fulfilling desires in this way is to sincerely believe in success, to desire it strongly, and Feng Shui will definitely help with this.
And one more important point. There must be tangerines hanging on the Christmas tree. If you have guests, treat everyone to a couple of tangerines. Why a couple? So that relatives and friends are not alone.
Where to put a Christmas tree according to Feng Shui
Now it’s worth thinking about where to put the Christmas tree in the house so that it becomes a working talisman. According to the teachings of Feng Shui, depending on which sector the tree is located in, it attracts different benefits.
- So, if you want your personal life to improve and love to come, a beautiful Christmas tree should be placed in the far right corner of the house. The left corner of the house is for those who dream of finding financial well-being.
- The near right corner is especially suitable for installing a New Year tree if the New Year is a children's holiday and there will be a lot of children in the house.
- But if you are planning to celebrate the holiday in the company of friends, then place the Christmas tree in the near left corner - this part of the house is responsible for friendships.
- A Christmas tree installed right in the center is an excellent talisman for improving health. The Christmas tree located in the middle of the wall activates the travel zone, and directly opposite the entrance to the room - for career growth.
- The fashionable trend of installing a Christmas tree “upside down”, hanging it from the ceiling, is actually a message into the ether of the Universe that you are tired of your old life and want to completely change it.
The cardinal directions also matter.
- To achieve career success in the coming year, to earn fame and honor, install a Christmas tree in the south. To improve love relationships and harmony in marriage, place a tree in the southwest.
- Herringbone in the southeast is for those who plan to improve their financial situation.
- Those who dream of children should install the green beauty in the west. By the way, this same “fruitful” direction is also suitable for creative people.
- A Christmas tree in the east is the key to family happiness, and in the north it will contribute to career growth and good luck.
- The northeast is ideal for those who seek knowledge and self-development, and the northwest is ideal for those who love travel and friendly communication.
- If the situation in the apartment does not allow you to install the Christmas tree in the desired corner, simply weave a festive wreath from spruce branches, decorate it in the same way as a Christmas tree, and the magic will work.
New Year tree for children 2020
For children and older children, it is the New Year that becomes the main holiday of the year, even their birthday pales in comparison. An incomparable expectation of a miracle has reigned in the house since mid-December. To turn the Christmas tree into a big surprise, you need to replace some toys with wrappers with sweets, caramel sticks, and hide a few pieces with autonomous lighting among the rest of the toys.
Of course, the beauty won’t last long like this, but you can agree in advance that several sweets are removed per day, and the rest continue to create a festive look. As the branches become “bald,” they are slowly replaced with inedible decorations.
About the Christmas tree and place for the New Year's table...
If you are NOT planning a stormy feast with firecrackers and choral singing, then you can place the New Year's table where it is convenient for you.
If you are planning a mega-active party, it makes sense to use good places in the house from the point of view of Feng Shui to set up the New Year's table, and, if possible, ignore the bad ones.
December 31 in the south and southwest
It will be, to put it mildly, not a very comfortable zone.
Try not to place not only a table there, but also any devices that generate light, heat, or vibration. And most importantly - do not light candles!
Also, if you live in a private house, you should not launch fireworks from this side of the house.
It is equally important where the tree will stand if it is decorated with glowing garlands.
A Christmas tree with glowing garlands or any other New Year's illuminations are a kind of activators that can affect the energy in the house and our luck.
If the tree is without garlands, then it doesn’t really matter where it will stand.
If you decide to decorate the Christmas tree according to all the rules, with garlands, then the most important condition is NOT to use the southern and southwestern sectors
your
home
or
a separate room
for these purposes.
The most correct place is the eastern sector of the house or the room where you will celebrate the New Year.
In the eastern sector in December there is a very good combination of annual and monthly Flying Stars, which will affect us until January 6th. Why not take advantage of this?
Just do not forget that in order to find the sector in which the beneficial energies of interest to us will live, you need to make the correct compass measurements for the Flying Stars. More details about this are in the instructions.
If for some reason you cannot use the eastern sector, you can put the tree in the west
.
You can also hang luminous garlands on the windows or on the outside of the house on the east or west side , or light candles here on New Year's Eve.
And one more piece of advice. If you place a Christmas tree in the east or west, or hang luminous New Year's accessories in these sectors, you can get a very good activation if you choose the appropriate time for turning on the garlands.
Here are some dates for putting up the tree and turning on the lights for the first time (use these if the geographic directions match the LZ measurements):
| Place for Christmas tree (illuminations) | Time to turn on the garlands | Not suitable for |
| East | December 4, Hour of the Dog | Snakes |
| December 5, hour of the Pig | Horses | |
| December 19, hour of the Rat late. | Monkey | |
| December 20, hour of the Goat | Rooster | |
| December 21, hour of the Pig | Dogs | |
| December 31st, hour of the Pig | Monkey | |
| West | December 6, hour of the Pig | Goats |
| December 12, hour of the Rooster | Bull | |
| December 13, hour of the Goat | Tiger | |
| December 25, Hour of the Dog | Tiger | |
| December 29, hour of the Pig | Horses | |
| December 31st, hour of the Pig | Monkey |
If one of your relatives was born in the year from the right column, and it’s convenient for you to do the Christmas tree at this time, send him for a walk for an hour and turn on the New Year’s mood!
If the geographical measurements do not coincide with the LZ measurements, then you don’t have to bother and put up a Christmas tree on any good day according to eastern forecasting practices. (See the forecast for each day).
New Year tree in the style of 2020 “Defiant minimalism”
When you want to enjoy the natural beauty of a coniferous tree, or you don’t want to spend a lot of time choosing a New Year’s outfit, you feel sorry for time, or you want to match the latest fashion trends in your interior, then you should turn to the laconicism of minimalism. His idea is to convey the most important things with the help of schematic images. Indeed, much less - a few bows and a garland. But elegant and fashionable.
To create this style, any materials and shapes are used; the main requirement is not to clutter the object being decorated, leaving room for imagination.

Where to put a Christmas tree according to Feng Shui to attract good luck in 2020
More and more often I am asked questions regarding the New Year: how to spend 2020, how to celebrate 2020, how to make wishes correctly, how to dress on New Year’s Eve and where to put the Christmas tree...
And today I would like to say a few words about the Christmas tree.
The topic of placing a Christmas tree is always the most popular. A lot has already been written and said on this topic. The location of the Christmas tree is most often chosen based on the annual and monthly energies, which in Feng Shui are called Flying Stars. There are bad stars, and it’s better not to put a Christmas tree there, but there are good ones, and if you put a Christmas tree in them, you can increase your luck.
The best sector for a Christmas tree in December is the East; you can also place the Christmas tree in the center of your apartment or room in order to capture the strongest and most positive energies. And it’s better to put the Christmas tree there.
The remaining sectors, unfortunately, are not the most successful. Does this mean that you can’t put a Christmas tree in them at all? No, that doesn't mean it. This only means that there should not be a lot of activity on the tree in these sectors, namely garlands and lanterns. The Christmas tree itself will not be able to activate negative energies; it is static. But if there are different firecrackers on the tree, lights blinking 24 hours a day, then in theory there could be problems...
Although, to be honest, I don’t know of a single case when a New Year’s garland in a bad sector caused any problems... But I do know a story about when a tree stood in the best sector, but the garland shorted out and caught fire, burning the entire tree Fortunately, the fire was noticed in time. So everything is relative...
To be honest, I don’t look at good or bad sectors at all when I put up a Christmas tree, because I always put it in the same place. And my Christmas tree is always decorated with garlands.

Feng Shui is important, necessary, strong... But I am first and foremost an esotericist, and also the daughter of parapsychologists and psychics... Therefore, my attitude towards energies is a little different. With all my love for Feng Shui (I really love and respect Feng Shui and never cease to be amazed at its power), I cannot deny that there are other forces and influences.
New Year's holidays, especially the period from December 24 to January 7, carry very strong energies. This is a truly magical period, and the energies at this moment are also magical and very strong. And during this period, our connection with the Higher powers becomes very strong.
And the Christmas tree is the main sacred element of the New Year, its main symbol. The itself is very powerful. And completely different laws and energies act on it, which cannot be calculated, they can only be seen or felt...
Feng Shui can enhance the energy of a Christmas tree, making it even more powerful and magical. But he will not be able to worsen it and force it to work against his masters. Most likely, a tree in a bad sector simply will not receive additional support.
For a tree in a bad sector with garlands to cause problems, a lot of negative factors must come together... a lot... very, very, very... And this is very rare.
As for my Christmas tree, I always put it in one room - in the living room. And for me this is the right approach.
I believe that the Christmas tree should always stand in the same place in the house, in the same room... from year to year... The Christmas tree should stand where we often visit or where we will celebrate the holiday... Then a very strong energy will indeed be concentrated there, even after we remove the tree. It’s not for nothing that the country’s main Christmas tree is placed in the same place.

If we put the tree in the best sector, but it will be a room that we hardly go into... hmm... It’s unlikely that she will be happy.
This is my approach.
But! Despite the fact that I don’t look at the sector of the tree’s location, what I ALWAYS take into account is the choice of dates.
I always decorate the tree ONLY on a good day and a good hour. And I highly advise you to also use my experience. Here are the best dates in December to put up a Christmas tree:
December 17. Time: 01:00-03:00, 07:00-09:00, 15:00-17:00; December 19th. Time: 07:00-09:00 (best time), 13:00-15:00, 21:00-23:00; 21 December. Time: 07:00-11:00, 17:00-19:00 (best time); December 25th. Time: 13:00-19:00; December 29th. Time: 01:00-05:00, 17:00-19:00; 31th of December. Time: 00:00-03:00, 13:00-15:00 (best time), 19:00-23:00.
Setting the festive table in 2020 according to Feng Shui
One of the main attributes when celebrating the New Year is a properly set festive table, in which the symbolism of the totem animal is combined with Christmas decor and an abundance of dishes. It is recommended to celebrate the onset of 2020 at the oval table. The tablecloth and napkins should be painted in the colors of the coming year. According to the rules of Feng Shui, the Rat prefers porcelain dishes, so make sure that they are available on the table.
Dishes must be served strictly according to schedule, because the Rat loves order in everything. Salads, poultry (duck, goose, chicken), fish dishes (fur coat), as well as vegetables - this is the menu for the perfect holiday table! As for drinks, it is best to celebrate the New Year with a glass of homemade compote, and for alcoholic beverages it is preferable to drink cognac or whiskey.
About the food on the New Year's table...
It is generally accepted that on New Year's Eve you need to put food on the table that might please the animal that rules the year. Surely you will read somewhere that there should be a lot of cheese and sausage on the table)))
Frankly speaking, this is also a myth.
As mentioned earlier, the new year according to the eastern calendar begins in February, and on December 31st we are still under the influence of the energies of the previous year.
Moreover, the Metal Rat is not real, and it does not wear rings and bracelets made of silver and gold, and does not eat cheese. It’s
just that the energy of the year was compared with this animal, so that it would be clearer what to expect from it.
Therefore, on New Year's Eve you can allow yourself to eat whatever you love!
Treat yourself and your loved ones! No restrictions! Allow yourself to enjoy food and eat to your heart's content! You can have cheese, Olivier salad and a huge cake with butter cream! Diets can wait
Of course, it is important that the table is elegant and beautiful. Be sure to pay attention to table setting and food decoration. This is always important, but on New Year's Eve it is doubly important. The New Year's table should be different from the usual. Therefore, a beautiful tablecloth, candles and all sorts of New Year's things on the table are a must!
Energy Center
Where do we usually put the Christmas tree? That's right, in some corner where it won't interfere. The approach is wrong. More precisely, only partially true. Of course, since few people live in a palace, a New Year's tree in the center of the room will look somewhat extravagant.
But before you put it somewhere, perform a simple ritual. Light a candle and walk with it through those places that are potentially suitable for installing a Christmas tree. Where the candle begins to crackle and the flame is uneven, there will be a “Christmas tree” angle.
As a rule, this place in the house is a “storage” of bad energy. And the tree will absorb the bad. Moreover, this tree has the ability to harmonize the space around it. Therefore, it will get rid of the bad and add good, positive things.
By the way, if you do not put up a large Christmas tree, but prefer a small one or even a bouquet of twigs, choose the place for them in the same way.
