Peggy Joy Cross, Founder of Designs for Harmony, has been a professional Feng Shui teacher, lecturer, writer and consultant since 1998. Her mission is to assist and guide her clients, friends and family in achieving beauty, joy, harmony, and desired change in their lives.

In her pursuit of excellence, Peggy has traveled coast-to-coast studying Feng Shui, including Compass School, Vaastu Shastra, Black Sect Tantric Buddhist School of Feng Shui, Pyramid School and Space Clearing. Although she has trained in several Feng Shui schools, she finds the practice of Black Sect Feng Shui to be the one she turns to most often because she believes this school is more empowering for her and for her clients. She is also a great believer in following one's intuition, our connection to the Divine. She honors the wisdom of the Master, H. H. Professor Lin Yun, who advocates staying open to all Feng Shui teachings in the belief that there is always more to learn and there will always be new things with which to work in our rapidly changing world.

Peggy incorporates her background as an interior designer into her work in Feng Shui. Her belief is that beauty, and this is beauty to the individual living in a space, is a constant uplifting energy for the inhabitants. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. One of Peggy's design gifts, realized long before she was a professional designer, is her ability to make any home or office comfortable, regardless of the style of design. One of her favorite teachings comes from William Morris, a designer and philosopher of early last century: "Have nothing in your home that you do not know to be functional or believe to be beautiful."

Living in Virginia Beach, Peggy has become much more familiar with the philosophy and readings of Edgar Cayce. Looking at the Divine inspirations for Feng Shui and Cayce's teachings, she has been led to research that compares these two powerful schools of thought. Her first article on the alignment of Feng Shui and Edgar Cayce teachings will appear in the July/August 2007 issue of "Venture Inward", the magazine published by the Association of Research and Enlightenment, or ARE, and sent to its membership world wide.

In addition to Hampton Roads and other areas of Virginia, Peggy has Feng Shui clients in California, Florida and several Midwest states. She has had a dozen articles published in SW Florida's "Natural Awakenings". She has been published in the "Naples Daily News", appeared as a guest on WTVK in SW Florida and interviewed on radio regarding relationships and Feng Shui. She has been featured in the Florida publications "Fort Myers New Press", "Properties of Distinction", "Naples Illustrated" and "Gulfshore Life".

Peggy Cross received her BFA in Interior Design from The Ringling School of Art and Design in Sarasota, FL and her BA in Political Science from Indiana/Purdue Universities at Indianapolis. She is a professional member of the American Society of Interior Designers and The International Feng Shui Guild as well as a Florida licensed realtor.
