Holistic Path

When you work with your personal bagua, the area directly to your right as you walk into a room is the travel gua. This is most commonly known as the area of helping people. It works both ways – people who pass through your life and aid you in one way or another, but also people you help in the journeys through their lives.
By paying special attention to the travel guas in your home, you will inadvertently attract chi in a number of different areas that are intertwined. Feng shui can affect your life even when you don’t know why. That's one reason it's nice to know the possibilities that can happen so you can be somewhat prepared. (You wouldn't want to know exactly how your life will unfold. That would defeat the whole purpose of living.)
Feng Shui Literally
The workings of the bagua can be as literal as your needs dictate. Perhaps you are in the market for a new car. That would definitely be travel. You may need help to decide what type of car to buy or in obtaining a loan. You would need to spruce up your travel/helping people area in hopes that the right people come into your life to assist you with financing and lead you to the car for you.
If you don’t want a loan, maybe you just need to be guided to the people who will have a car that will fit your budget without the help of any outside sources. To bring the right car for you into your life, you could make a collage with pictures of you, the type of car you want, and pictures and words that tell a story of how you will feel when you get your car. Hang the collage in your travel gua and wait!
Be Open
One of the most exciting (and sometimes frustrating) aspects of feng shui is that, although it can improve your life in so many ways, it is not 100%. There is always the chance that you won’t get your wish. Sometimes what you get is even better than you asked for, even if it doesn’t look like it at first.
Part of the miracle of feng shui is that many times the changes that occur in your life are not literal at all, but symbolic. Keep your heart and mind open to the intricacies of feng shui. It’s little things that get you through life, little helping hands, little miracles that you often don’t notice in your busy life. Be open to them in your work with feng shui, and always.
