The Significance of Bamboo
Bamboo by its nature tends to bend but not break, and is the
visual representation of the Wood Element: being flexible to
adapt your goals. It was also used in ancient times as swords
or arrows to protect oneself from attackers, so plants are
used today for protection from the outside world. In general
it represents fidelity and peace.
Home Placement
This is a Compass Feng Shui tradition. There are 24 directions
(or 24 Mountains of the Lou pan.) Your home, and therefore
your front door can face these particular directions which may
attract 1.) wealth and a good career, 2.) a good partnership and
health, 3.) both, or 4.) neither. Wouldn't we all want to attract
both wealth, a good career, health, and a good partnership if
we were building our home?
