HOLISTIC GARDENING

FENG SHUI IN THE GARDEN PART 1

Balance

Striking a balance is an important goal in Feng Shui. An excessive amount of an item creates an imbalance that causes an interruption in the flow of chi. Tai Chi is the Chinese symbol for yin and yang. This shows that there must be a bit of black in white seems to dominate, and vice versa. This knowledge means that much energy from one type leads to an imbalance in our environment, which then reflects the problems in our lives.

An example of the plant kingdom is an area of kikuyu grass or buffalo, which is overgrown and is stifling to other plants. This is a case of green energy has gone mad. By contrast, a large area of bare concrete floor without life is an extension that has no living organisms to soften the hard adjustment. This situation has no life support green energy and people who live nearby, no doubt, the negative sense of the sha chi generated – as in the steel and endless concrete jungles we call cities. The secrets for achieving balance are:

1. The addition of plants, objects and structures used to represent the five basic elemental energies.

2. The incorporation of appropriate forms or designs that add an elemental energy that may be lacking or missing. These should be useful, decorative or have any meaning or value to you.

Examine each "room" in your garden to see if all five elements are represented and not be afraid to experiment or try something new.

About Feng Shui Cures'

Too much green energy – Attempts to place a brass statue or sculpture to represent the element of metal. A spot color support in an area lacking energy may be just the thing to encourage a stain dull and lifeless. Moving objects create energy in areas rancid. The light can also be used to energize and elevate the dark spots or shadows. (Energy solar garden lights are a great option for eco-friendly.)

A pair of pointy-leaved plants, conveniently located, are another way to help cure an imbalance of excessive metal energy at a given location. Waveforms or a flow pattern in a brick wall (which represents the energy of water) will help to master the excessive earth energies that may be present.

Intuition is the key. Listen to your inner voice. Have a good look at her garden, where it may be necessary animate. What would it brighter or darker, less nudity or perhaps more spacious? Do you need more shade, or perhaps less sun? Only you know what feels good and remember all who have the power to do is make changes in our immediate environment to make us feel more comfortable and "at home" in places we spent a lot of our time.

Abstract

Plant in favorable areas – east, south-east, north or south use elements of support in each sector – the colored shapes and materials. Ensure balance by incorporating objects, plants, structures or designs, so that each of the five basic elements adequate representation.
