Four Celestial Animals in Classical Fengshui



The Green Dragon: whose hills brings abundance and prosperity 

As the first of the animals, the Green Dragon sits to the east of the house, where the sun rises. Representing spring the Green Dragon brings wealth and well being to the home. In Form School Fengshui the Green Dragon is represented by a low hill to the east of the home.

The Crimson Phoenix: whose hills represent opportunity 

The phoenix refers to the front of the home or business. This is where you need a spacious area to allow chi to gather. In addition, you need a small-scale structure in the front as well. A good phoenix is an area that is open, but not completely exposed. The phoenix area should be large enough to accommodate the flowing chi and to direct it towards the home or business. 

The White Tiger: whose hills protects 

The White Tiger in Fengshui represents the west or right hand side of our homes (from the front main door). The White Tiger is associated with courage, protection and dignity. The White Tiger brings good luck and fortune when it is represented by a small rise on the right side of the house and is most often associated with the compass direction of west. It is the yin to a dragon’s yang. The White Tiger protects a home from negative forces.

The Black Turtle: whose hills provide support

Black Turtle behind your house. Black Turtle "supports" living space. Traditionally, it's a hill or a mountain, but these days a wall or building behind your house could serve the same purpose. Practically, it makes sense to shield your house from high, strong winds and lashing rains.
