The Bagua is a grid used in Feng Shui to locate different areas (guas) in a home, a garden, a room, or anything you wish. Ba means eight in Chinese, and Gua means section, so eight guas around the center, called Tai Chi. The Bagua is placed over any area you desire and has nine guas, including the center.
Using the Bagua is a fun way to decorate. It is also a great way to use your intention to create what you desire; for example, if you want a new relationship, you would work on the relationship and Self Knowledge guas. Each gua had an element associated with it.
The tomato plants in the photo are intentionally placed in the Fame gua. The Fame area is the back middle gua of the Bagua, which correlates to the rear middle gua of the garden. The Fame gua is an excellent area to work on if you’re an entrepreneur, artist, or business person and want to be successful in your area of expertise. The element in the Fame gua is Fire, and wood/plants feed the Fire.
Put your intention into what you desire in your business when placing these plants, do the same as you care for them, and water them. The red color of the tomatoes also enhances the Fire Element.
Placing items with intention is and fun way to live life. Do this with all areas of life and see your life improve.
Feng (Fun) Shui sure is fun, and it works.
