Be Aware of Crystals
More and more Feng Shui practitioners,
especially those so-called contemporary Feng
Shui practitioners, use crystal decors as Feng
Shui tools. One of the reasons is that they are
not genuine Feng Shui practitioners; another
main reason is that they sell those crystals for
profits.
One of the main Feng Shui theories that every
master uses is the Five Element Theory – We have
to balance the Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and
Water. Most of the Feng Shui tools are used to
balance (boost) the elements.
For every object, we can tell its nature
(belongs to which one of the 5 elements) by its
material, colour and shape. A metallic statue, of
course, belongs to Metal. If its shape is a
square, then it also represents Earth (see the
table below). If its colour is yellow, it has
the Earth nature.

Most of the crystals that those Feng Shui
practitioners sell are spheres. The shape
(sphere) represents Metal. Most of the materials
(chemical composition) of the crystals are
metallic compounds and their colour varies.
Therefore, most of the crystals are either Metal
or Earth in nature.
Before putting a crystal in your room, you have
to make sure the nature of the crystal fits the
requirement of the Element you need.
Putting an incorrect crystal may bring you bad
luck and/or bad health.
Note: Artificial crystals, such as Swarovski,
are made of metallic compounds and contain lead;
or they are coated with metallic chemical
coatings. Therefore, in 5 Elements theory,
they are all Metal in nature.
