Why this topic exists
Garden questions are different from indoor feng shui. Plant placement, water-feature direction, courtyard paths, and gates all need outdoor context.
Outdoor and landscape
Garden Feng Shui
This page explains Garden Feng Shui as a practical cultural reference, covering the core idea, common use cases, careful checks, and responsible limits so readers can compare traditional guidance with real conditions.
What goes here
Pages about lucky plants and trees, the eight directions of the garden, water-feature placement (avoiding direct flow towards the front door), gate orientation, and the difference between auspicious vs. inauspicious courtyard shapes.
Boundary
Tradition gives general placement principles, not climate or horticultural advice. Always defer to local landscape professionals for plant survival, structural drainage, and safety.
How to read this guide
Read Garden Feng Shui as a structured cultural reference rather than a fixed prediction. The page belongs to traditional Chinese metaphysics, so the most useful approach is to understand the idea, the situation it describes, and the assumptions behind the rule.
Practical checks before applying it
Before applying Garden Feng Shui, write down the current condition in plain language. Note what can be observed directly, what is only symbolic, and what would require a qualified professional outside metaphysics.
Responsible use and limits
Garden Feng Shui should not be used as medical, legal, financial, psychological, or safety advice. It is best treated as background knowledge and a reflective framework.
