The Dark Side

The Dark Side

Some people have an impression of dark or black as being mysterious, eerie or scary. Not so, according to Feng Shui.

The darkness actually represents yin energy: a slower pace. It can help calm the mind, and allow you to rest when needed. Dark coloured things can be ‘grounding’ and can suggest calmness in order for you to pay attention and make sound decisions. Wearing dark coloured clothing can reinforce a sober mood when dealing with finances, business dealings or the death of a loved one.

Signs of life can be very different in the dark. When daylight turns to dusk at the end of the day, take notice of the different smells in the air, the shadows on the sidewalk and the nocturnal activities that start up.

Even the moon goes through cycles where it is very bright or extremely dark! This photo was taken in the southern hemisphere where the moon is at a different angle than we are used to in Canada. It appears to be smiling down on the earth!

It is a whole different world that can function in the dark and it is not so scary after all!
