Hi,

The `secret' ingredient for Garden Feng Shui is always -> Plants/Trees. This is because with surrouding Plants/Trees, you get birds coming to the house.

It is good to have birds around the house and this is considered auspicious.

In general, it is equally good to have a bird feeder so long as:

1. It is not of an " odd " shaped that may represent a `monster', or any unknown figurine.

2. It does not have pointed arrows that point towards the main entrance door or a window of the house.

3. Any objects or figurines with open mouth pointing towards the house.

I remembered reading one of Evelyn Lips book where there was this "frog" with an open mouth facing a rich man's house.

There were lots of problems he faced and it was only discovered late when a Feng Shui Master checked the surrounding during low tide and found the shape of a frog facing the house. By then it was already too late, if I am not mistaken death, etc...

The remedy was to place an object in the mouth to `satisfy' the frog e.g. symbolic of food in it's mouth.

Here, you will understand that symbolism in Feng Shui is important as shown by many earlier examples.

Thanks.
