Going Zen: Garden Feng Shui Designs
When you want to increase your luck and your wealth, why not try garden Feng Shui designs? Based on the thousands of years old practice, these designs can not only enhance the look of your home, but they might also make your life more prosperous. No matter how you look at it, with garden Feng Shui designs, you really don't have anything to lose – but a lot to gain.
The first thing you need to do with garden Feng Shui designs is decide where you want to place the garden itself. It is thought that by adding water to the area where wealth energy is situated, this can actually be damaging to the family in the home, so you will want to avoid the farthest left hand corner of your backyard as you face out from the back door. Since many of these designs include a water pond, you might want to try placing this garden in the right hand corner or perhaps in the middle of your yard where the health energy resides.

Another idea when it comes to garden Feng Shui designs is to create a balance of the elements of Feng Shui – water, wood, metal, wind, and fire. By making sure to include each of these items in your garden, you will create balanced energy ('chi') in your life and your yard. Try adding a combination of a pond, plants, metal chimes and perhaps a candle to the arrangement to cover all of these elements. Of course, you don't have to place all of these elements in the garden itself – you could also arrange them throughout your yard and home.
The key to making garden Feng Shui designs work for your yard and for your life is to maintain them well. While this could be said of any garden, when you are trying to foster energy growth, you need to make sure your garden stays alive in order to promote 'life' energy. Tend to your garden daily and if there are any dead or dying plants, remove them or revive them as quickly as possible.
