This month we're working with the energies of:

Ren/ Celestial Yang Water, which is rain, the Planet Mercury and the expansion of space

and

Wu/ Terrestrial Yin Fire, which is the hearth.

Wu converts to:


Ding /Celestial Yin Fire, which is the light of stars,

Ji/Celestial Yin Earth, which is gravity. ,



Discussion about this month's window

Elixir Feng Shui Window 14



This month is very favorable for many reasons. The main one is that it embodies the energies of Water over Fire. This is the preferred position rather than its opposite, Fire over Water, because the nature of Water is to extend down and the nature of Fire is to extend up. When they are in the current configuration, they naturally reach into each other and therefore blend in a positive alchemy.

It's easy to spot the Fire element here in our window in the form of this fiery Red Barberry plant. It brings in the energies of the hearth, along with...

And gravity is further brought forth by this set of mostly toppled 19th Century Imari sake cups set on a wicker serving basket. Why six cups? Six is the most Yin number.

Take home lesson



Your monthly Feng Shui display is an intentional arena where your imagination and subtle senses can come together with invisible forces of nature. All of this happens at the right time (guided by the Feng Shui calendar), and in the right place (your life). When you put your intentions, energy and time into such a creation it enhances your relationship with these invisible forces in positive ways. They cease being so invisible and begin to bridge into tangible forms in your everyday world. When you let them into your life, they also let you into theirs.
