Water's domain encompasses spirituality and the emotions. A balance of water brings about inspiration, wisdom and insightfulness. Too much water can create the feeling of unbalanced transition and the sense that you're drowning emotionally. It can make you feel overwhelmed and overly social. When there's too little water, you may experience a lack of sympathy, loneliness, isolation, stress and pettiness.
When incorporating the water element, add:
The color black or any deep, dark tones
Reflective surfaces, such as mirrors and gazing balls
Wavy, free-form or asymmetrical shapes
A reflecting pool creates spa-like calm in this backyard. Greenery tumbles over the edge of the planter boxes and the waterfalls layer in peaceful sound.
