Feng Shui Your Garden for a Tranquil Outdoor Space
What better place to create harmony with feng shui than a garden? Just imagine the peace you’ll achieve with your green thumb and a little chi. Here are a few feng shui tips for adding tranquility to your garden:
- Add natural elements: Carefully select plants and other natural features that represent the Five Elements of Feng Shui: wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Each element has its own symbolism and energy and should generally be used along with the Feng Shui Bagua to create balance and harmony in your garden. For some examples of how to use the elements: fruit trees may represent wood; a small fire pit or red accents could represent fire; stones could represent earth; wrought iron fencing could be used for metal; and a small pond would represent the water element.
- Use winding paths and curved edges: Sharp corners disrupt the flow of energy, which causes tension. Instead, use winding paths and curved edges in your garden to create a more natural flow.
- Use color wisely: Different colors have different meanings in feng shui. For example, green represents renewal, so it’s good to use in areas where you want to encourage growth. Yellow can represent happiness, so it’s a good color to use where you want to create a cheerful atmosphere. Blue represents tranquility, so use it where there should be a peaceful atmosphere. Like with the elements, be sure to refer to the Bagua to make sure you are using colors in the appropriate places.
