Feng Shui in the Garden

By Richard Webster

 Celtic Connection  Price $8.95   

If you have a home, apartment or condo, you most likely also have a yard, garden, porch, or patio. Even if you only have a window box filled with flowers, you can still benefit from Feng Shui in the Garden by Richard Webster.

Feng shui is the 5,000-year-old Chinese art of living in harmony with the earth. Most people think of using feng shui in their home or business, but what better way to attract chi (or life energy) to your home than by first attracting it to your garden?

This book is ideal whether you have experience with feng shui or not. It begins with an introduction to the mysteries of feng shui. You'll learn about such things as the placement of water, the five elements, the mystical pa-kua and how the pa-kua can be used to help you achieve wealth, improve relationships, obtain luck, enhance your career and more.

An important aspect of feng shui is its focus on the free flow of chi through your home or business. If you have the luxury of setting up a new garden, this book shows you exactly what you can do to improve the flow of chi.

Chances are, however, you are living in a place where a garden already existed. You can still use feng shui to improve your garden. By asking a series of nine simple questions, you will be able to determine if the feng shui can improve the chi, bringing health, wealth and happiness.

You will learn how to set up a trigram based on the position of your home. Different parts of your property will be associated with different trigrams. This book will help you determine which flowers, plants, herbs, bushes and trees are appropriate for different locations in your yard.

For example, you will learn that the southwest direction is associated with the colors pink, red and white and is related to love and marriage. Thus, for a successful love life, be sure to plant flowers in these colors.

Traditionally, there are five flowers considered to be the most important in feng shui: peonies, chrysanthemums, white magnolias, orchids and lotuses. The book explains their meaning and how to use them.

A garden with herbs can enhance the feng shui of an area, too. The book lists over 25 useful herbs and why you might like to plant them. You will also learn where to put the different herbs in your garden.

A secret garden is one that is completely enclosed. It can be any size and is a place where you can get away from the everyday world. It may be in a secluded area or it may be a section within your garden. It is both relaxing and healing.

Of course, most people with gardens eventually bring flowers, herbs and plants indoors. This book explains how to do so for the greatest feng shui benefit.
