Hawaii is an archipelago and according to various surveys it is the most preferred holiday destination among vacationers. Hawaii is popular because of its waters, clean beaches, and general holiday spirit.

Because of the influx of tourists in Hawaii every year, residents and hotel owners continue to modify their vacation property options to attract customers.

Tourists usually like staying close to the beach, which is why one of the prospering businesses in the Hawaii are beach house rentals. Homes in Hawaii, whether in the beach or not, are considered residential real estate. People who own beach houses in Hawaii only use them during special holidays and rent out their beach houses when they are not using them.

This not only helps them save on taxes, but also generates additional income. Guests like Hawaiian houses for rent because it gives them more privacy and freedom while on vacation in Hawaii.

Renting a house is also cheaper for the guest if he is staying in Hawaii for a long period of time. The prices vary depending on the amenities, number of rooms, and location of the house. The cheaper houses can range from $200 to $1000 a night, while large houses with many amenities may cost around $6000 per night.

In general, renting a house means that the guests will have to do their own cleaning and cooking. It is also cheaper if there are many people renting the house. The prices for renting houses in Hawaii are negotiable, so it is possible to find cheap houses with good features if you look hard enough.

Depending on what kind of vacation you want to have, there are many kinds of residential structures for rent that you can choose from. If you want to stay on the Island for a few months look into working for room and board. If you get the opportunity to share a house with someone who is already on the Island and you’re up for adventure.

Knowing people from the area will give you a head start on finding out what to do and where to go. Who better to hang out with then fellow travelers? By using a site like Craig’s List you’ll be able to check out your compatibility before you go!

Staying in a home with a kitchen will also save you tons of money on your vacation. Visit the Farmer’s Markets in Hilo and Kona, and take advantage of the cheap and plentiful seafood, then cook yourself. This is a lifesaver for families with children. And, contrary to popular belief, food isn’t expensive in Hawaii. There are discount grocery stores in all the major towns!

HOUSE ENERGY CORRECTION, HOROSCOPES, KARMA & CRYSTAL ENERGY FIELDS : PART II

House Energy Correction is the concept of controlling the 8 Directional Energies; 7 Chakras and 7 Energy Bodies of the People; Boosting and Balancing the 5 Elements of the Lands & Buildings. Simply stated, it is the Total Energy Rectification of Horoscopes of the Family Members and Business Partners; Vaastu and Fengshui Energy Correction for their Lands & Buildings. Read the revealing FAQs about unique Crystal Energy Fields based on the Ancient Siddha Programming Techniques for Karma Correction. This is the second of a series of 3 parts of FAQs.

Question 9 : Can you describe a Special Feature or a Special Crystal Energy Field ?

Oh yes. There are 3 high end CEF series called Crystal Karma Gate, Crystal Karma Galaxy and Universal Crystal Galaxy (Rainbow Series). There are many special features in these models, eventhough one aspect really stands out. It is that they have a built-in Energy Ball Generator : all of your morally and ethically correct positive thoughts, wishes and tasks - whether personal or professional - are assigned to individually created (invisible) Energy Balls. The Energy Balls are programmed and energised accordingly and automatically, so that they maintain the right level of energy push and energy pressure until the event happens or the wish realises, fully. Fantastic, isn’t it ? To learn more about the newly launched Crystal Energy Fields, browse http://www.crystal-vaastu.com/whatisnew.htm

Question 10 : How long does it take you to create a Crystal Energy Field (CEF) and then for results ?

My CEFs are custom built from the scratch. They are not to be compared with market-ready Reiki Grids and the like. Depending upon the model, anywhere between 4 to 12 weeks will be needed. The results start coming after the first 3 months of installation of the Crystal Energy Fields.

Question 11 : What happens when the client shifts his house or office - does he have to redo the House Energy Correction once again ?

I am glad you asked this question. Unlike other remedies which are place-oriented, mine is customer-oriented. All my CEFs are programmed to re-tune themselves to any new house or office, automatically. Which means when a client shifts to a new building, his CEF auto-tunes itself for this new place. It cleanses, boosts and balances the 5 Elements of the new land and building and integrates it to the client’s family karma. In fact the CEF is safely installed inside a box that is comfortably portable.

Question 12 : And if there are any Vaastu or Feng Shui defects in the building ?

Any negative energy arising out of defects in Vaastu (Indian Vedic Vastu Vaastu Vasthu Vaasthu Shastra) or Fengshui (Chinese Feng Shui) are fully nullified by the CEF. There is no need for any alteration or demolition. Similarly the Geopathic Stress Levels as per the European Bau Biologie (Building Biology) are also totally corrected.

Question 13 : What about the people who live in rented house or shared apartments ?

It does not make any difference whether the native is living in own house or rented house or is sharing a flat with several other occupants. The House Energy Correction is done for a particular family or individual in the specific context of their currently residing living space. When the native shifts to another rented or own building, the CEF automatically does Energy Correction for this new living space. All other occupants continue to exist as per their Karma. There is no clash of interests here.

Question 14 : What if the different members of the same family live in different homes ?

Even if different members of the same family live in different homes or even different countries, still my CEF will reach out to them with ease. Only thing is that the CEF used for House Energy Correction will be of a different category with some high end Crystal Programming.

Question 15 : What you are saying is that your House Energy Correction takes into account the Horoscopes of the Family as well as the Vaastu/ Feng Shui/Bau Biologie of their property ?

Absolutely, but it is more and beyond that. It envelopes not only Birth Horoscopes but also Progressive and Gochara Horoscopes. It not only takes care of Vedic Vaastu Shastra, Oriental Feng Shui & European Bau-Biologie, but also the concepts of Gochara Vaastu and the Chinese Flying Stars Fengshui too.

Question 16 : Reverting back to our earlier conversation, how does “Programming” differ from “Energising” ?

“Energising” is the process of filling the remedy (whether it is Crystal or Feng Shui Cure or Pyramid or Sacred Geometry Yantra) with auspicious and positive energy, to last for a long, long time. “Programming” is the process of empowering the energy itself. In other words, “Programming” means defining and dedicating the positive energy to execute and complete specific tasks for specific people. Mere energising is not enough. Programming of remedies is a must.

A classical example will be the Computer. Like Computer, any good remedy is a powerful hardware. But you need to connect and switch on the Computer to make it active and stay alive - which is “energising”. For the Computer to operate meaningfully, you need a proper software. That is the “programming” part.

Question 17 : How do you say your Crystal Energy Fields are “custom-built” ?

Crystal Grids or Crystal Energy Fields sold in the market are based on some regular designs, say, for healing or health. Here the crystals are simply assembled, mounted, (some are even) energised and sold off to the customer. There is either no programming at all or very rudimentary programming. The crystals are not selected exclusively for the customer or for his specific problems. A classical example would be what is popularly called as a Reiki Crystal Grid.

In my case, the Crystal Shape, Crystal Colour, Crystal Power and the Quantity of the Crystals are individually selected based on the Karma of the customer’s family, business, lands, buildings and the problems he is facing as well as those he would likely face, in the future. Then the Crystals are Programmed and Energised. The Crystal Energy Field is near-permanent. It will work only for the programmed tasks, for the programmed people only. There is no energy loss involved. Thus it is custom-built.

Question 18 : How do you decide which particular CEF is most suitable to a particular c;lient ?

The Energy Consultant, who builds the CEF, is necessarily a Clairvoyant, Clairsentient and Clairaudiant, apart from other qualifications. With Clairvoyance or Sookshma Drishti, the CEF Consultant scans the Energy Levels of the People, Lands & the Buildings. Without Clairvoyance, one cannot practice Energy Correction. Sometimes, Divining Tools like Tarot Decks, Runes & I-Ching Coins also are used. This Energy Reading Consultancy process is also called as an Energy Audit. You can learn more about the Energy Reading here : http://www.crystal-vaastu.com/energy_audit.htm.

Question 19 : What does an Energy Audit or Energy Consultancy reveal ?

Energy Consultancy or Energy Audit helps one to better understand his/her energy levels which actually influence everything in his/her life. The resulting LifeForce Energy Assessment Report will briefly furnish the following details :

(1) the Energy Beams that a person (or his/her family or his/her house or office) receives from all the 8 Directions (including planetary energy streams) - whether they are positive or negative and in what percentage and what their impacts are;

(2) the personal energy levels of the person : energy conditions of the Energy Centers or Chakras and the Energy Bodies;

(3) the balance or the imbalance of the Five Elements of the person’s land and building;

(4) identifying root causes of problems, Karmic baggage, if any, etc.;

(5) Recommending the ideal CEF (Crystal Energy Field) for the person (or family or business), not just to solve the current problems but to correct the Karma itself.

Passive Income

The National Association of Realtors recently issued a report showing that when the sales of homes slow down, the amount of rentals increase. Rented homes, whether in a house or an apartment, are what keep the housing market afloat during uncertain times. Unfortunately, renting is not necessarily better in the long run for consumers.

Why People Are Renting More Than Ever

According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition’s annual report, “Out of Reach,” one in seven U.S. households spend over half of income on housing, with low-income earners, minorities and first-time homebuyers taking most of the burden. With first-time buyers taking up about 40 percent of the market, everyone else who is a potential homebuyer has the ability to move into larger or more expensive homes.

Although housing prices have plummeted in recent months, the first quarter of 2008 is the 24th consecutive quarter that rentals have risen across the country. Such a huge increase in rentals suggests that more people are opting to stay away from the housing market. Part of the reason so many people flock to rented units is because of stricter lending terms.

Another possibility concerns how “soft” the housing market is right now. Either way, renting seems to be the more popular option at the moment.

Why Buying May Be Better Than Renting

Contrary to the increase in renters, the Mortgage Bankers Association stated in a report that the number of purchase loan applications increased 5.4 percent from the previous week. On top of this, mortgage interest rates rose slightly, indicating that homebuyers are gearing up for the spring season instead of shying away from the lowered prices.

The housing market has suffered recently to be sure, but market fluctuations will lead to a slow but steady increase in buying. In other words, whatever goes down must come back up. As real estate agents prepare for the spring homebuyer season, there is a very likely chance houses will start to sell, especially those in foreclosure or generally pricier neighborhoods. With historically low interest rates and the FHA helping borrowers with paying off their subprime loans, the number of renters may actually go down in the next year.
