Feng Shui Dragon And Tiger Together

According to Chinese astrology, the dragon and tiger are exceptionally complementary companions. Sometimes people like to combine these two celestial creatures to create or represent the Yin-Yang symbol.

• Although some Chinese would prefer a combination between the dragon and the Phoenix to symbolize Yin Yang. Both tigers and pythons are highly respected in Chinese culture. And to this day, there are many images of dragons and tigers locked on the walls of temples.
• When paired with a dragon, the tiger represents yin energy (when displayed alone without the dragon, it symbolizes yang energy). This fearless animal has always represented admirable qualities of strength and courage.
• In Feng Shui, the tiger rules in the west direction and its element is metal. The white tiger that rules the western parts of every house is considered a yin animal.

The Four Feng Shui Celestial Animals Placement + Directions

When the home placement is thought of, there is less emphasis on the directions of the Four Celestial Animals for wealth and more emphasis on how the atmosphere is in your home. They are the most auspicious Chinese four beasts.

In an ideal world, this would be how our house sits in its plot but unfortunately, we do not always live in the ideal world. You can use below Chinese symbolism if your home does not have natural landforms and little or no opportunity to physically create them.

Green Dragon Placement

• Always remember that you are using the symbol while performing three mystery reinforcements in the item position. Planting a tall tree or hanging a wooden windchime in the area of the Green Dragon stimulates the Dragon Chi.
• If you have no outside space at this side of your house add something made out of wood to this side of the house or hang a picture incorporating a dragon on the far left wall of your home (the left as you look out of your home)

Red Phoenix Placement

• In the area of the Red Phoenix it is important you stimulate yang chi by introducing movement. This can be done by hanging a wooden wind chime, a crystal, or by creating a moving water feature at the front.
• The front of the house is also a good place to celebrate the Red Phoenix by planting red flowers and plants and erecting a birdtable.

White Tiger Placement

• In the area of the White Tiger, it is very important that the ground does not slope away from the house. If this is the case in your environment hang a metal windchime or erect lights in the outside area.
• If you have no outside space at this side of the house hang a picture of a white tiger, introduce a metal sculpture or hang metal coins on the far right wall of your home (the right as you look out of your home)

Black Turtle Placement

• In the area of the Black Turtle stimulate turtle chi by adding water or mirrors to this area of the house. For the best feeling of protection ensure that the back of your house is private.
• And if you have open ground at the back try and ensure that you can create some feeling of privacy. If you have no outside space at the back hang a picture incorporating a black turtle, or a picture of a mountain scene on the far rear wall of your home.

What are the 5 heavenly beasts?

In China, 5 heavenly beasts are the symbol of power. They are the creatures Turtle with a snake, the azure dragon, vermilion bird, white tiger and yellow dragon.

Basics Landscape Of Feng Shui

When looking at how your house sits, I always like how to sit in a chair first. If you sit in a chair, you are well protected on your back, you have support on your side and open space in front of you. Now think of your house sitting on a chair.

This is the way your home should sit in its environment, protected on the back, supported on the sides and with an open view in front. In our modern surroundings, especially if you live in a town or city.

• It is not easy to find natural landforms to provide this support and good luck in our environment. However, we can have our own shapes, forms, and structures to give us the same protection and to ensure that the ancient Feng Shui masters first looked while practicing Feng Shui.
• The edges of our house should provide some support when we stand at our front door. This support can be provided by another house, a fence, a hedge, a row of trees or a garden wall. Ideally we would not like this support to be more than our own home and not too far away.
• At the back of our house, we want to feel maximum security. Here, ideally, there should be a tall structure that molds our house. Which again if you don’t have a convenient hill or mountain then another building behind your house, a wall, a fence, a row of trees, or a hedge.
• It is possible. At the back of the house, we want this security to be either the height of our own house or a little high and not too close so that our house feels oppressed.
• Finally, there should be an open area in front of our house which is flat or slightly downstream. There should be some form of chi line that can take the form of a road or river. If there is a barrier between the front door and the road or river it should be low enough to be seen.

Conclusion

Many people in our modern towns and cities feel that the use of landforms is no longer relevant and so we have turned to different ways to promote positive energy in our homes. However, it is a shame to throw away old ideas altogether when we discover new ways.

In Form School Feng Shui, a house that is full of positive chi, there should be four celestial animals symbols on each of the four main compass points outside your house.

• There are four main animals which according to Feng Shui represent the ideal place. They are considered the four heavenly beasts. These animals help protect the house from the flow of negative energy.
• The concept of these four Chinese celestial animals is able to distinguish four types of landscaping structures that protect the house. These animals are a green dragon, a white tiger, a red phoenix and a black turtle.
