Summaries of All Chinese Symbol Articles

The Five Elements of Nature
By Kathleen Karlsen, MA
The five element form of feng shui classifies various aspects of interior design according to their relationship to the predominant forces in nature. The Chinese five element system views wood, fire, earth, metal and water as the primary natural elements. Learn more here.

Bamboo Symbolism 
By Kathleen Karlsen, MA and Ning Yeh, Ph.D.
The bamboo is the most popular plant in China. Every village in Southern China is surrounded by bamboo groves. To be Chinese is to feel at home with bamboo.

Five Element Survey
By Kathleen Karlsen, MA
Take the survey below to determine your natural element compatibility. This survey has 15 questions and should take three to five minutes.

Phoenix Symbolism
By Kathleen Karlsen, MA
The story of the phoenix begins in ancient Egyptian mythology and was later developed in the Phoenician, Indian and Greek traditions. The phoenix is a sacred firebird with beautiful feathers of gold and red or purple and blue. A phoenix lives for 500-1,000 years and then builds itself a nest of myrrh twigs. Find out more here.

Wealth Symbols
By Kathryn Weber
Our homes, like our dreams, speak in symbols. The art, the symbols, shapes, and colors we surround ourselves with at home tells a story of our lives. Mine speaks to a love of travel and does so in the artwork that I’ve collected from around the world. It’s important that we place objects and items in our house that inspire and motivate us.

Feng Shui Gems
By Kathryn Weber
From the earliest fairytales of genies and fairy godmothers, we all have wishes that we would love to see magically happen. Luckily in feng shui there is a wonderful technique for activating the energies associated with all of the usual aspirations that everyone wants: love, wealth, health, happiness, good fortune.

Good Luck Symbols
By Kathryn Weber
Creating good feng shui that promotes wealth, happiness, and opportunities can extend way beyond your front door or the way you arrange your bedroom. Feng shui can be incorporated in the accessories in your home to the car and clothing colors you select.

Purple Power
By Kathryn Weber
Purple is mixture of soothing, calm blue with boisterous, energetic red. Purple is associated with royalty. It symbolizes power, nobility, luxury, and ambition.

Red Color Meaning
By Joey Pebble and Abhishek Agarwal
Red may be the most powerful color in the spectrum. Less somber than black, but more powerful than orange, it is a color which incites emotions, and causes people to react, in both biological and psychological ways.

Feng Shui Animals
By Kartar Diamond
The role of both real and mythological animals is referred to frequently in feng shui theory and folklore. In many books, there is a description of an ideal house, which has a turtle behind it, a phoenix bird in front of it, and a dragon and tiger on either side. Learn more here.

Bonsai Trees
By Carolyn Anderson and Marcin Doliwa
A lot of people wonder about the meaning behind the bonsai tree. Well, let's start with the meaning of the word itself. Bonsai, first of all, is a Japanese word and could be translated as 'a tree in a pot'. The art of bonsai growing, however, did not originate in Japan but in China. Learn more here.

Chinese Astrology
By Caroline Bourke and Henry KH Fong
Chinese astrology symbols are astrological signs of 12 animals that represent a twelve year cycle that is aligned with the sun and the moon. Each one of them was carefully selected and used to represent human life and culture. Learn more here.
