Siobhan Wilcox explains the five elements of feng shui and how they create harmony or imbalance in your home. We're in Period Nine, a fire-dominant era starting February 4, 2024 that lasts about 20 years. She covers specific placements, colors, and objects to activate love, career, and health, plus what to avoid, like putting metal under your bed.
Hi, and welcome back to Feng Shui for Love and Intimacy. Again, I am Siobhan Wilcox. In this video, I want to talk about the five element theory and how the elements connect with each other, support each other, or are destructive to each other. The elements we're going to be talking about are fire, wood, water, earth, and metal. And the reason we're not talking about air as an element, because obviously air is an element, is because air is everywhere and it is a given. So let's review what we've gone through already. We've covered so much. I want to make sure we're not losing ourselves and that you're remembering all of the pieces that you are have absorbed so far. So we looked at the new energies that are coming in now for period nine that started February 4th on 2024. We looked at also the old energies that we were leaving out from period eight. We looked at classical Feng shui and the power behind us and why it works. We looked at how to unlock your home, which I hope you found very valuable because it is one of the things that really will change everything for you, whether it is prosperity, relationships, or health. We looked at the areas that are associated with love in your home. And we're going to go into this in much more detail in videos coming up. But I wanted you to start seeing the areas we're going to work on. And we talked about intentional Feng shui and classical Feng shui and that we will be looking at both of these. Inside of this training, we also looked at how to discover how the energy enters your home and then how to measure out your home based on your energy home's matrix or bagua. So in this, we're looking at the elements. Fire, wood, earth, metal, water. This is called the productive or creative cycle. So let's look at this. Let's start with fire, as this is the prominent energy in the next 20 years. Period nine brings in the fire element. If we think about it, wood is needed to fuel and feed fire. Fire then changes itself into ashes, and these ashes then go back into the earth. The earth then will go on and it yields metal. If you think we mine metal out of the earth, the metal will then have water condense upon us and water is formed. Water then nourishes the wood that then goes back to feed the fire. So this is the creative cycle of our elements, and this is the ideal cycle. To harmonize our home is to have as many of our elements as possible in a creative cycle. Now, in classical Feng shui, there are nine Main stars that are read at the construction level of the construction time of your home, nine main stars can be activated. Now, inside of each energy matrix, there is actually three stars that are placed in each of these, but they're only one of nine. And these one of nine are associated with different elements. So this is how I know when I look at the satellite map and I place out the exact compass reading based on that loop and compass, I can figure out then what are. Where were the stars in alignment at the time of construction of your building, your home, your business? And then where do they relate to the current astrology, the annual numbers. And then that gives me which remedy to put into each section of your home based also on your desires for outcome. So if you are wanting to not call in romance, which is probably unlikely, you're here on this training with me. But you want to have more career success, or you want to have better health, or you want to be more visible in your career. There's different elements that I could enhance in your area of your home for fame and reputation, for wisdom and knowledge, if you wanted to write a book. So wherever whatever you're desiring is enhanced based on the elements to, to get them into this productive creative cycle. And what I'm also sometimes will bring in is weakening elements where predominant energy could be very dangerous. In a section, say metal, Sometimes there's a way that the astrology falls where metal goes into a very negative way of being, which can actually create accidents and illnesses based on metal. And those I would weaken or bring down the influence of. So it goes in the opposite direction. Water rusts the metal. Metal is mined out of the earth, which reduces the power of the earth. The earth then is put on to dampen the fire. The fire burns the wood and the wood pulls out of it, pulls water out of it, so it reduces the water power. The destructive cycle is what I am trying to definitely not have in an environment inside the elements, because this is where energy gets very chaotic and very destructive and can feel very heavy as well. And if we think about it, we metal, we use it in our axe to pierce and cut wood. The water will pour on the fire and put the fire out. The fire will melt the metal and a dam, the earth is used to dam and block water. So this is where. And the wood is also used to draw out of the earth. So if you ever notice the trees, they need the earth, but then they will actually pull all of the nutrients from the soil and diminish the soil. We know our potted Plants we need to add more soil in. So this is where we start to apply feng shui elements as remedies. So if I say in a section that metal is needed, this is ways you can apply metal in your home. Metal cuts Negativity. It's based on its actual weight. So if I say it needs 30 pounds of metal, then it needs 30 pounds of metal. Do's and don'ts. Not covered in plastic or rubber. Not painted any fire colors, which are purples and pinks as well as reds, burgundies and burnt oranges. Never place under a bed because it's an activator and so it'll energize you and stop you from sleeping. Metal colors are gold, silvers, coppers, pastels, whites and grays. Metal needs to breathe, so never cover it. Even if you put it in the back of the wardrobe, that's fine. Just make sure it's uncovered and that there's a tiny crack in the door of the wardrobe. So the air is always going in around it. You always add metal first in an area. The shape associated with it is round. Our heavy appliances act as metal. So your washer, your dryer, your fridge, your ovens, they all act as metal in an area. Moving metal slices Negativity. Pendulum clock. An open faced clock with the second hand that moves around rotating motor with wind chimes or even just a key on there. It doesn't have to have a wind chime on it. Water element linked to prosperity as we spoke about already in the lock. Ideally placed in the north for the next 20 years. Clean water out 360 or flowing towards your house. Ideal colors are black and blue. Ideally plastic, resin, metal. Never fire colors. If possible, have no lights on the fountain. You can also use a fishbowl in the house. You can also use one of those automatic water dispensers that gives water to pets. If you have a pet. It must be constantly in motion for prosperity to flow. The shapes associated with it are waves. Earth element. You can use these beautiful salt lamps crystals. It grounds and creates prosperity. Stone as well as crystals and also terracotta. Color is brown, burnt orange and yellows. The square shape. Healthy plants with large amounts of soil, but not cactuses or spiky plants will act as earth elements as well as wood elements too. At times the fire element is very powerful. You don't need a lot of it. So we read candles, a rug or cushions. Colors of photographs or pictures that have color red fiery colors in it. Work not red metal. Do not add a lot of it because it's so powerful. The kitchen, in your stove, in your kitchen will act as fire energy. Colors are reds, strong pinks, magentas, burgundy cranberries, purples, and sometimes the orange. Like this color orange as a pointing with my mouse, this kind of like really fiery orange color. And the triangle is the shape. The wood element is usually grounding. And we don't require a lot of it in feng shui because our houses are made of wood. Our furniture, a lot of it is made of wood. But bringing plants and herbs or fresh flowers, but not cactuses. And thorny roses are good for wood elements. Hanging a green tea towel on your stove can help prevent destructive cycle in the kitchen. The color is green, the shape is rectangle. So we've done so much already, my friends. The review is, you know, we've looked at feng shui and how it works. We looked at classical Feng shui and a little bit about intentional. But you'll learn a lot more later in that. We did our release ceremony. We looked at our Bagua energy matrix. We've looked at just now our five element theory and remedies. And we looked at the power of period nine. And you now understand, I think, a lot more about this fire presence that this period nine is bringing in that we can enhance for our romance and our passion and our desire. So, my loves, I will see you in the next section and I look forward to that.
