Meanings of shapes according to feng shui:

Circle - Symbolizes infinity, wholeness, cyclical movement, and harmony in feng shui. The circle has no beginning or end, making it a symbol of eternity and infinity. The circular design can be used in various spaces to promote flow and harmony and help balance the energy of the room.
The circular design can be used in different rooms but is particularly suitable for spaces where peace and relaxation are desired. For example, a circular art board can be used in the bedroom to promote a tranquil atmosphere for sleep.

Triangle - Represents a pyramid, strength, stability, power, and resilience. The triangle generally symbolizes the element of fire. The fire element represents passion, energy, and transformation. A triangle can be used in a room to activate the fire element, which can enhance activity, motivation, and creativity. For example, a triangular design can be used in an office or workspace to stimulate idea generation and creativity. It can also be used in a children's room to promote their energy and creativity levels.

Hexagon - It is often associated with the honeycomb structure created by bees. Honeycombs are known for their hexagonal shape, and their perfect geometry has been admired for thousands of years. The hexagonal honeycomb design allows bees to use space more efficiently, reducing the amount of wax required to build walls and conserving energy and resources. According to feng shui, the hexagon helps promote strength, stability, protection, and balance energy in both spaces and people's lives. For example, a hexagonal art board can be used in an office or workspace to stimulate productivity and promote action. It can also be used in a sports or exercise room where physical activity is encouraged.

Square - strong and firm, unchanging and permanent. The square represents solid foundations based on the principles of order, structure, and stability. It can help balance energy. For example, a square design can be used in a home office to promote a sense of security and stability in the work environment. It can also be beneficial in the bedroom, where it may help promote peaceful and stable sleep. Feng shui recommends using the square shape to attract wealth and abundance. Square-shaped objects, such as a money box, can contribute to generating financial abundance and improving the economic situation.

Heart - a symbol of love recognized worldwide. Whether you desire love, seek more of it, or want to express love better, the heart is a symbol that has been associated with love, emotions, and mental and physical well-being throughout history. In feng shui, the heart represents love, affection, goodwill, and is also associated with relationships, marriage, and family. The heart is also associated with feelings of joy and happiness, and in feng shui, the heart symbol can be used to bring positive energy and harmony to your home or workspace. The heart symbol can be used in the bedroom to promote love and romance in a relationship. It can also be used in the living room or other spaces where a joyful and harmonious atmosphere is desired.

Star - a symbol of strength and energy. According to feng shui teachings, a star can symbolize various energy fields. Firstly, it can represent career energy, and placing it on a desk or in an office can help promote career advancement or establish a stronger position at work. Secondly, stars have a meaning of success and good fortune in feng shui, and their images can be beneficial in homes or offices where the energy level needs to be raised and a positive atmosphere created. Thirdly, a star can symbolize spiritual energy and the heavens, and its images can help establish a connection with one's inner wisdom and higher self, enhancing spiritual awareness. Finally, in some cases, a star can also symbolize the energy of love and romance, such as in the relationship zone of a home, to enhance the energy of love and passion.

NB! In feng shui practice, it is important to find balance and not overuse any symbol.  All shapes should be used in moderation to ensure a harmonious flow of energy in the space and in people's lives.

String Art and Astrology

Astrology is a system that divides people into different groups based on their birth date. Each zodiac sign has its characteristic traits and energy that can influence our personality and life experiences. By understanding zodiac signs, we can better comprehend our own and others' behavior, discover our strengths, and explore personal growth opportunities. Although zodiac signs are not scientifically proven methods of assessing personality, they can provide an interesting perspective for self-discovery and supporting personal development. It's important to understand that zodiac signs do not determine our destiny but rather offer guidance and possibilities that we can utilize in life.
