Posted August 18, 199926 yr Dear cecil,I learned that the symbolism is important in the feng shui. Does keeping a small gazeboshaped bird feeder in the garden means that we are situating a gazebo in the garden.So will it considered a bird feeder or a miniature gazebo. Thanks.
Posted August 18, 199926 yr Staff Hi,The `secret' ingredient for Garden Feng Shui is always -> Plants/Trees. This is because with surrouding Plants/Trees, you get birds coming to the house.It is good to have birds around the house and this is considered auspicious.In general, it is equally good to have a bird feeder so long as:1. It is not of an " odd " shaped that may represent a `monster', or any unknown figurine. 2. It does not have pointed arrows that point towards the main entrance door or a window of the house.3. Any objects or figurines with open mouth pointing towards the house.I remembered reading one of Evelyn Lips book where there was this "frog" with an open mouth facing a rich man's house. There were lots of problems he faced and it was only discovered late when a Feng Shui Master checked the surrounding during low tide and found the shape of a frog facing the house. By then it was already too late, if I am not mistaken death, etc... The remedy was to place an object in the mouth to `satisfy' the frog e.g. symbolic of food in it's mouth.Here, you will understand that symbolism in Feng Shui is important as shown by many earlier examples.Thanks.Cecil Quote On 8/18/99 12:30:22 AM, Anonymous wrote:Dear cecil,I learned that the symbolismis important in the feng shui.Does keeping a small gazeboshaped bird feeder in thegarden means that we aresituating a gazebo in thegarden.So will it considered a birdfeeder or a miniature gazebo.Thanks.
