Feng Shui is an ancient spiritual discipline based on Yin, Yang and five elements theory. With the proper use of Feng Shui elements in your living spaces you can have Yin, negative energies and Yang, positive energies, perfectly balanced. The harmonious surroundings created by the Feng Shui designs have their positive influences on your life.
A practical advice on how Feng Shui elements should be used in interior design is given only after a through assessment of Feng Shui elements of your living space. A proper adjustment of Feng Shui elements helps us regain control over our lives. With practical Feng Shui interior design changes, your environment has a positive effect on you. All Feng Shui elements have their own unique properties and should be used properly.

The five Feng Shui elements water, wood, fire, metal, and earth help balance the competing energies in your home by negating and supporting each other's energy. Creatively used Feng Shui elements in home design maintain the yin and yang balance of your environment.
There are five elements of Feng Shui. One element water, as in trickling fountain, can symbolize networking, communication, professional opportunities and wealth, while sink water, toilet water or waste water may symbolize loss of money or poor health.
Wood is another Feng Shui element that promotes development and creative energies in its surroundings. You can use wooden objects to promote motivation, inspiration and passion. Metals are transmitters or conductors of energy. Introduction of a metal generates attention and it is also associated with strength.

Another element of Feng Shui, earth is associated with solidity, stability and permanence. Fire is the most powerful of all five elements. It represents energy and passion and is represented in bright or Yang colors.
Though the Feng Shui elements are important individually, what is more important is the positive or destructive effect that each element can have on one another. For example if you have a room that lacks the wood element, using a wooden Feng Shui decorating would not suffice. You need water element as well because it enables wood to grow.
When you attain "ideal" Chi (not too fast, and not too slow) the balance and harmony to your life will return and that can be done with the thoughtful use of Feng Shui elements in interior design.
