With the arrival of Christmas, more than in other celebrations, it is common for us to make special decorations in our homes, resulting in the insertion of several new objects that will act on the subtle energies present there. Learn more about how decoration objects from this festive season can influence your life and how to make a more favorable balance.
For Feng Shui, the important thing is to use the theory of the Five Elements of Energy represented by Fire, Water, Earth, Metal, and Wood.
The five elements are represented as follows:
Fire Element: represented by the triangular shape (Christmas tree), stars, bows, candles, lamps, flashers, and by the color red and all the decorations of this color.
A dessert like a strawberry shortcake or a berry salad will become the present element at the table.
Red is the color of life, and in addition to representing the fire element, it concerns growth, happiness, vitality, and joy.
Note: The Christmas tradition is rich in the color red, and overuse in decoration can result in imbalance, emotional outbursts, and irritation among family members.
Wood Element: Represented by the natural Christmas tree (pine), wooden objects, and green color representing balance and discernment.
Use green cups and arrangements with green leaves
Earth Element: Represented by typical fruits such as peaches, oranges, grapes, and plums. In addition to representing the earth element, these fruits symbolize wealth and abundance and attract prosperity. Arrangements of natural or artificial flowers and by the yellow color.
Metal Element: Represented by metal ornaments such as bells, cutlery, white plates, napkins, and gold, white and silver ornaments. Gold and silver color represent money and fame and reinforce intuition.
Water Element: Represented by transparent ornaments such as glasses, drinks, water glasses with candles, mirrors, and translucent accessories. Also, the blue color represents spiritualism, pondering, reflection, faith, constancy, faithfulness, and appeasement.
Other colors are also linked to Christmas.
Pink or rose color: It represents love, joy, happiness, and romance and elevates the mood, so it is a very healthy color to have around you at this time of year.
Purple: This color is associated with high ideals, loyalty, and truth, the color of high nobility indicating power, wealth, and fortunes.
Where to assemble the Christmas tree?
The tree belongs to the wood element in Feng Shui. It should be placed in an area of your home compatible with the wood element, where it can benefit and maximize good energies. The best sites for your Christmas tree are the guides of prosperity, family, and spirituality. Placing the tree in this gua will maximize the good energies of this element and this area of your home. Suppose you put your tree in another gua. In that case, it doesn’t mean it will create negative energies as long as you are careful with the colors and decorations you use.
