Whichever holiday(s) you celebrate, the décor that you add to your homes is a Feng Shui enhancement. Impossible you say – I don’t have any of that in my house. Well, yes you do. Feng Shui is about energy and from this perspective the lights, trees, decorations, symbols and color are additional energy, or chi, that we add to our lives. This additional energy increases our enjoyment of our homes and enhances our lives during a celebratory time of year.
The five elements are: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Each element will have characteristics and representations based on their essence and can be used in a space in a variety of ways.
Plants are amazing enhancements in Feng Shui. A plant can bring in the wood element, trusting and progressive. Representing growth. Learn how a special plant from a memory of the authors grandmother can make all the difference in your feng shui spaces.
Water is the Feng Shui element of inward reflection, patience, mindfulness, and release. It is soothing, calming, and comforting in its timeless power. Just think of how the Grand Canyon was carved with the Colorado River slowly, over time but with an amazing outcome.
