The Five Elements In Feng Shui

Metal
The most common solution, Metal can be found in Copper, Silver, Gold, Pewter and Bronze. Using the Metal Element can take on all sorts of creative ideas. A cast pewter flarm is one idea. A copper plate hung on the wall is another.

The key thing to remember is that Feng Shui is about creating a beautiful environment. When utilizing the Metal Element, ensure that it is rounded and pleasing, not sharp and pointed.

Metal is the most commonly used remedy for the negative Earth energies as mentioned above. Ideally, the goal is to introduce Feng Shui elemental solutions that are not identifiable as Feng Shui remedies. Feng Shui objects that should blend into the environment and be beautiful are recommended.

The colors of White, Silver, or Gold can be used.
Metal represents the Dui Trigram (Kua No.7) in the West. Dui is a ‘yin’ metal such as gold. It is also the Chien Trigram (Kua No.6) in the North West. Chien is a ‘yang’ metal like steel.

Water
Water is the give life on our planet. Without it, we would not exist. In Feng Shui, Water is a very useful element. Water, when needed, should be clear and flowing. Stagnant water can create more problems than it solves.

A simple aquarium, or even a small "metal" fountain can be used. Do not use ceramic or other earthen fountains. This is because the Earth element blocks water and neutralizes the positive effect of the Water. Outside, a metal trough, a fountain, or even a fish pond can act as an environmental solution.

Water has always been synonymous with power. Water has been used as an elemental solution by the emperors in the form of moats and by placing their palaces near bodies of Water. If you look at most capital cities today, they are either located near the water or have large lakes or rivers nearby. But remember, the direction of facing is more inportant then having those "water" elements nearby.

Water can be represented by the colors blue or black and gray. Water represents the Kan Trigram (Kua No.1) in the North.

To conclude, you should not use any of these elements haphazardly. A proper Feng Shui analysis should be performed by a qualified practitioner. The elements can cause harm to relationships, health, or money prosperity if incorrectly placed.
