Mirrors are called the aspirin of feng shui; with proper placement, they can dramatically shift the flow of energy in any given space. Mirrors also bring a sense of refreshment and calm. We fell in love with this beautiful mirror - feminine, gentle and with a very graceful energy .
Feng shui tip: Do not place the mirror to directly reflect the bed (or the door).

Plants and Fengshui

1. Plants are auspicious from the point of feng shui. It is always good to grow plants in the house, especially wooded plants.
2. Plants in the office also bring about increased luck in your career. Place plants in the east, south or south-east corners of your office for maximum luck.
3. If you are a married couple and want children, avoid putting flowers the bedroom. Instead, place a basket of fruits in your bedroom. Fruits, especially pomegranates, are a symbol of fertility.
4. Don't place thorny plants inside your home. Thorny plants do form a protective shield, and could be placed outside the home. Don't place them too near the front door. They could be placed a little further away from the door, or in the balcony.
5. Don't place bonsai plants inside or outside the home. They represent stunted growth.
6. Trim your plants regularly. Overgrown plants promote bad energy. Similarly, trim trees in your garden regularly. Don't let them overwhelm your house.
7. Fresh flowers bring luck and fortune in your home. Place fresh flowers in your living room on a regular basis. However, once they die, throw them out. Don't leave dying flowers in your home.
8. Avoid placing dried flowers in your house. They are believed to bring misfortune. Artificial flowers are a far preferable option and are believed to bring luck.
9. Do not place any flowers, plants or any other auspicious feng shui symbol in the bathroom. The good luck will backfire and turn into bad luck.
10. Ever noticed lemons (nimbus) hanging on the entrances of shops? They are believed to ward off the evil eye, according to Hindu superstitious beliefs. Similarly, oranges and lemons are believed to be powerful symbols of fortune, and bring prosperity to the home. They should be placed at the entrance.

Feng Shui Power Symbols

We are surrounded by symbols every day. From the dollar sign to Santa Claus, from Mt. Everest to religious icons, we live with symbols, decorate with symbols, and employ symbols for various purposes. Artists frequently use colors and symbols in their paintings or works of art to display subtle ideas or suggestions.

In feng shui, symbols are used for a purpose: to meaningfully enhance the objective associated with the symbol. So, say you are trying to gain greater wealth, you may wish to put up money symbols or pictures of banks to bring about greater wealth.

However, many people become over zealous about selecting symbols for enhancement when they are trying to effect a result, such as more money, a new job, or a potential mate. In doing so, it is possible to select items that really don’t appeal to you or go with your decor.

So, do carefully consider the objects and items you select and bring into your home, because you want them to be items that you find attractive. It is also important to note that these items do not necessarily have to look “Asian” or be certified “feng shui-appropriate” in order to work.

A regular frog or turtle will work just as well as a frog or turtle purchased at a feng shui shop. So, shop and decorate with this in mind. It is also important that the symbol is appropriate for the area where it is used -- and that it's activated.

Activated? Yes. All symbols used for feng shui purposes should be activated with a touch of red. This can mean a red frame for a picture of something auspicious, a red cloth that the item is placed on, or a dot of red in print of an auspicious picture.

If there is no red on the object, you can tie it with a red ribbon or stick on a red adhesive dot to activate it. But do be sure to activate your symbols. And while you are at it, consider selecting your own personal feng shui symbol, such as the mountain for strength, or the dragon for good fortune.

In feng shui, there is a tremendous range of symbols – from frogs to Chinese calligraphy to the noble dragon – but there are also some more important symbols that I call “power symbols.” These have a higher resonance.

That is, the symbolism and effect the power symbols apply is very strong indeed. Below are just a few of them. Do consider adding these symbols to your feng shui, and remember: these aren’t just good feng shui, they are power feng shui. One note: always follow the warnings and advice for annual feng shui.
