So, what is the Feng Shui Water element and how should it be used?
You can add water to the dominant water areas of the Bagua, in most cases, but of course there are exceptions. For example, you should be careful to avoid certain water element applications in the bedroom areas.
Water is a catalyst element, which means it has the ability to create change quickly. The areas of the Bagua that can be enhanced by additional water elements are the career, wealth and family areas in Western BTB Feng Shui, in Classical School Feng Shui you will need to find out the facing and the spaces natal chart.
Water is used in Feng Shui to help move or enhance energy in or around a space.
Here are a few ways you can add water to your environment and what the water element is represented in as far as color, shape, objects, etc. Please keep in mind these are very general suggestions. There will always be unique aspects of a space that should be considered. General applications may not be best for you or your home specific layout. This is why an environment should always be assessed by a Feng Shui Expert.
- Water’s message: abundance and prosperity
- Water’s color: black, indigo or dark blue
- Water’s shape: wavy and curvy patterns
- Water objects or material: fountains, aquariums, pools, art depicting bodies of water, ships, a vase of fresh flowers, turtles and frogs
- Water’s textures: wavy textures, open weaves
- Water’s smell and taste: pear, ethereal-like a banana
- Water’s music: the vibrations of a harp or violin
- Creative element is metal (dew forms on metal producing water)
- Destructive element is earth (earth dams water)
- Reducing element is wood (woods absorbs water)
Water is an element that feeds and helps to create wood. You can use water elements to deter stagnation, loneliness, and feelings of insecurity. It can help with communication and create determination to finish a task. Too much water in an environment can make some feel overwhelmed and overly emotional so balancing the elements properly is important in any space. If too much emotion is becoming a problem with you or your family members at home you may wish to add more earth elements as this can hold back water’s affects; such as a dam holds back water.
