A Feng Shui Tip from E. J. Shaffert, Director of London School of Feng Shui
As the next step in our exploration of the Five Elements, let’s focus on the Water element.
The ancient Chinese art of arranging spaces balances the five key elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water.
And when it comes to bringing in a sense of flow, intuition, and abundance, Water is essential.
Water symbolises movement, adaptability, and ease. It’s all about going with the flow, helping you navigate life’s changes and challenges gracefully.
In Feng Shui, Water is also linked to emotional clarity and deeper understanding, making it perfect for personal growth and introspection.
Plus, Water is closely connected to wealth and abundance. Think about flowing water like streams or fountains as symbols of money and opportunities flowing your way!
The soothing vibe of Water makes it ideal for creating a peaceful and serene environment, which is perfect for spaces where you want to relax and recharge, like your living room or a meditation corner.
One of the easiest ways to bring this energy into your home is with actual water features. Indoor fountains or aquariums aren’t just pretty; they’re powerful focal points that enhance the flow of positive energy.
And don’t forget about using colours! Black and dark blue are the perfect shades to capture that Water energy.
Mirrors and glass objects can also do wonders by reflecting energy and amplifying the Water element’s effects. Adding art with water scenes or smooth, flowing lines can also enhance this energy.
While the Water element is powerful, it’s crucial to balance it with other elements to avoid feeling overwhelmed or stuck. Bring in some Earth elements like stone or ceramics to ground the energy, and add a touch of Wood with plants to promote growth and balance.
Try this at home!
By thoughtfully incorporating water features, colours, and symbols into your space, you can harness the calming and prosperous energy of the Water element and let the good energy
flow into your space!
