New year, new luck!
There are many ways to attract luck into our homes this coming new year and in Wednesday's episode of "Unang Hirit," Feng Shui expert Jean Chua shared five things we can do to ensure we welcome 2023 in a positive note.
1. Keep your home clean
While it's advisable to keep your homes clean all year round, Chua said it's more than necessary to deep clean the house before welcoming the new year.
"Declutter all the mess so new energy will come up," the Feng Shui expert advised.
2. Use blue, green, or yellow curtains
When it comes to home curtains, Chua said that the simpler, the better. For 2023, green, blue, and yellow are the lucky colors.
“Iwasan natin [yung] maraming designs, masyado kasing magulo. It will attract negative [vibes],” she said.
[Avoid curtains with complicated designs as they will attract negative vibes.]
In Feng Shui, blue stands for wisdom, knowledge, and intelligence and is particularly lucky this 2023 because it's the year of the Water Rabbit.
3. Don't keep the dining table empty
To attract abundance in the kitchen, don't keep the dining table empty. Chua advised keeping fruits like apples on the table, which signifies peace and harmony.
"Always put something [on the table] like candies, fruits [to attract more blessings and abundance," she added.
4. Add metallic accents in the living room
Given that the living room is where families spend time the most and where they entertain guests, Chua suggested adding metallic accents on the sala, especially on the throw pillows.
"For the throw pillows, you can use metallic or shiny colors for bright energy," she said.
5. Use pastel colors for bedsheets, comforters
Contrary to the bright colors suggested in the living area, pastel or earth colors in the bedroom are a must, to attract good rest and sleep.
“Kailangan din may headboard for good support, and pastel and earth colors for bedsheet and comforter para makatulog nang maayos,” she said.

Meanwhile, Feng Shui expert Johnson Chua also shared tips for attracting luck into your wallets, such as using a red purse and keeping lucky charms inside your wallet, among others.

I've got a knack for Feng Shui, and I can tell you that these tips from Jean Chua are spot-on. Keeping your home clean is not just a mundane chore—it's an essential practice to invite positive energy. Decluttering is like making space for good vibes to flow freely.
Now, let's talk about those curtains. Jean Chua is right on the money. Blue, green, and yellow curtains are not just a visual delight; they carry auspicious meanings. Blue, especially, represents wisdom, knowledge, and intelligence. And in 2023, being the year of the Water Rabbit, it holds even more significance.
The dining table tip is a gem. Keeping it empty is like leaving opportunities on the table, literally. Fruits like apples symbolizing peace and harmony? That's not just a tasty addition; it's a recipe for attracting blessings and abundance.
Metallic accents in the living room—brilliant. The living room is the heart of a home, and adding shiny colors with throw pillows brings a vibrant energy. It's like a visual feast for positive vibes.
And when it comes to the bedroom, the advice on using pastel or earth colors is a game-changer. Contrasting the lively living room, the bedroom should be a haven for serene rest and sleep. The emphasis on a headboard for good support is a practical touch, too.
Lastly, Johnson Chua's tips for luck in wallets are intriguing. A red purse and lucky charms inside? It's like carrying a little bag of fortune wherever you go. Here's to a brighter and luckier 2023 for all of us, indeed!
