Hi all,
I purchased diamond feng shui and have looked through the material a couple of times to get a general feel for the course before starting (it looks like a lot of information).

I live with my boyfriend who has the exact opposite favorable directions than I. We just moved to a new city, gave away all of our furniture (except one bookshelf, many books, and some clothes) so we could start fresh, and are renting a downtown apartment.

I am without many good feng shui essentials such as a solid headboard, favorable colours in the bedrooms, doormat, etc., because I wanted to wait to go through the course and gather these things as I go along, preferably in the 'right' colours etc.

At this point my most pressing questions / concerns are:

1/ When applying information in this course, do I primarily work on what's best for me or do what's best for him and for me (both)? Since my boyfriend has the exact opposite direction, how do I enhance his directions without creating havoc for myself? Or does it work that way at all? (I've looked through the forum and saw stuff about stars, periods, cycles, etc but that's way over my head at this point).

2/ Colours - his or mine?

3/ Cures / Activations - colours in this direction, animals in that direction, stones/gems in another direction... I'm just afraid my apartment is going to start looking like a rainbow with an animal collection wearing jewelry scattered all over the place. Thoughts and suggestions?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I feel a bit overwhelmed, as if I'm standing at the bottom of Mt Everest with all this information. Thank you in advance. Looking forward to hearing from you.
