Lighting

Adding lights to your Feng Shui garden can create a warm inviting glow in the evenings to give it a more balanced and relaxed feel. Lighting can be used to highlight plants and foliage, enhancing the colors of the seasons. Lights represent the fire element and give out positive yang energy, that can be used to create auspicious Feng Shui.

The warm glow of candles always adds to the ambience of your garden and brings in more positive yang energy. You can also use candles that are designed to keep mosquitoes out of your environment at night.

Hanging lanterns from hooks or trees is especially potent when placed in the South of any garden, as this particular area symbolizes the Fire element. Small lights placed anywhere in your feng shui garden create good fortune by adding positive yang chi. By cleverly using lighting you can effectively harness Earth luck, thereby enhancing and activating family and relationship luck.

Soft and subtle garden lighting placed beneath foliage or behind rocks can add to the ambience of your garden and enhance positive yang energy. If the areas you plan on using lighting receive plenty of sun during the daytime, try using solar powered lighting that automatically turns on when the sun sets.

You can bring about major improvements to your garden feng-shui by the use of lights to energize good areas of the garden and offset problem areas. The potency of specific elemental forces can be increased to attract recognition and fame.
