Language of Nature with 5 element perception

Introducing the 5 elements through the lens of landscape this past week deepened the realization of how these elements are culturally integrated into the perspectives of some eastern cultures.  This is not reflected so much in our Western Cultures and is a learning curve. Reference to elements is even made in professional assessment reports and their cycles in the east.  Also an eastern physicians will assess patients based upon characteristics of the 5 elements.

Here  are some examples of these elements through the shapes and colors from my garden:

Oneness Wednesdays in June:

CULTIVATING A LIFESTYLE OF HARMONY & BALANCE IN RHYTHM WITH NATURE 

Nature in Harmony

​Oneness Wednesday evenings in June will focus our attention on ways of increasing the synergy of nature and our personal landscape and living experiences.  Nature in balance supports harmony and nature out of balance destroys ​it.  Each Wednesday has it’s own jewel to explore and can be experienced separately.  Attending the series will expand personal awareness and will deepened cognitive and somatic integration.  During the month we will explore the meaning of landscape, the patterns of a natural landscape and how we fully participate in creating the landscape consciously and unconsciously. The month long series will include right and left brain activities; learning models, creativity and movement to enhance your somatic experience.  You will leave June with your own ability to plan your living landscape experience.

Here are the individual Wednesday topics:
