This article describes how to incorporate “Fent Shui” elements to your garden and bring positive energy to your landscape.

Gardens can relax or energize you, depending on their design. Balance your landscape’s energy flow to ensure it will be comfortable and harmonious. The Chinese have used this method of design for many thousands of years. It is called feng shui, pronounced “fung shway.”

Learning the terminology and concepts of feng shui can help one understand this discipline.

Qi (also called ch’i) describes the energy flow that moves over and around objects and people. Too much is not good; too little is bad. Energy can be blocked by walls or trapped in corners, where it becomes stagnant. The objective is for qi to flow gently through openings, not be too aggressive (positive) or too passive (negative). Strive for a perfect balance of the two in your design.

Yin and yang describe the two opposing forces that act on qi. Yin is passive; yang is aggressive. This is the goal of balance to achieve in your garden.
