Continuing
on with numbers and elements around the compass from four to six.
Remember all
odd numbers represent yang energies and all even numbers represent yin energies
even when the area itself may be the opposite.
However, this is balanced out by the introduction of other elements into
each area to create yin/yang harmony.
Number Four (4) – This is the number of the southeast. On its own it is a number that represents
work in the literary field; with education and learning. In some Far Eastern dialects the number four
sounds like ‘death’ so there are often high-rise buildings that do not have a
fourth floor. Four signifies stability
and grounding created by the four sides of a square or a rectangle however it can
also represent feeling trapped.
This is
a yin number in a yang growth area signified by small wood and the area relates
to the eldest daughter (Sun) of the family.
Its colours are the bright spring and mint greens; the fresh greens of
the spring and early summer period. The
southeast also signifies long-term wealth and prosperity and is best enhanced
with water, an aquarium, to enhance the element of wood. In symbolic Feng Shui small wooden images and objects displayed in
multiples of four are auspicious, fresh vibrant flowers and images of the horse
will enhance this area for the benefit of the daughter of the house as well as
protect the wealth of the family.
Number Five (5) – Five is the number of the central area of
the home. This area is known as the
heart of the home or the Tai Chi. Displaying
each of the Five Elements in the centre will create auspicious energy for the
whole household especially when you have an open-plan design to your home. The colour of the centre is the earth colours
like ochre or pale yellow. Five is not
associated with any aspiration in Feng Shui but its significance is important
in the Five Element Theory. It is a
number that represents change, activity and motion. It indicates the possibility of travel. Because it is the central number in the
Lo-Shu Grid it is a number that suggests being at the centre of things; whether
these things or situations are good or bad.
The centre is an earth area that links the northeast and the southwest
earth areas.
Number Six (6) – Six is the number of Heaven and is an
auspicious white star that resides in the northwest. This number represents
spiritual help and especially benefits the male or the breadwinner of the family (Chien.) This is the ultimate yang area representing
as it does big metal and the colour white (which incorporates all the other
colours in the spectrum.) It is a number signifying leadership and power. This
is a powerful star and its location is a powerful area. As well as Heaven, it is the place of the
male of the family and the area to focus on to attract a powerful mentor figure
into your life.
Hanging a photograph of
the man of the house here; and even hanging a picture of someone you look up
to, a mentor, to help you in your career or the career you aspire to, will
create positive vibrations. This is one
of the two most important areas to care for and activating this big metal area
with sound, light and movement will keep the yang energy of the male
flowing. To achieve all three in one,
locating the television in the northwest and keeping it turned on for a good
length of time each day will attract auspicious vibrations.
To the fulfillment of your dreams
