wooden furniture

[myfs_146081]

Does wooden furniture possess strong wood energy. All the furniture in my house is of wood. Does that mean I have sufficient wood energy and dont need to grow plants in my house.?
Thanks for helping.

These are some considerations:-
1. In the past, especially in the 1970's to 1980's where many geomancers practise using the following tools:-
1.1 Basic to Advanced Ba zi
1.2 Basic concepts to Advanced Five Elements concept
2. During those donkeys years (1970-1980's) and unfortunately, some still practice this kind of Feng Shui;
2.1 Such practitioners are too simplistic: thus if say one leaks wood element; then as what you had mentioned below; some of these geomancers would give advice such as what you had mentioned.
3. Today, many of us understand and read widely about things like Flying Star Feng Shui. In the flying star concept; just because one needs wood element; does not mean that the entire home needs "wood energy" or element.
4. Look at it from another way:
4.1 Even in the US, majority of homes were constructed with mostly wood: Wooden frame structure, wooden or plywood panels etc...
4.2 So that it mean that if one is say a Strong fire or strong wood person, should not live in a home with everything wood or the so called wood energy!
5. How about a home that is made of bricks or concrete or reinforced steel cum concrete? Does the same logic imply that if one is a strong earth person; living in a fully concrete home is bad due to the so called "earth (concrete) energy".

Thanks for the reply sir. What I wanted to ask was that is wooden furniture part of wood element as some say that ?it is not alive and ?hence not good to be considered as wood element. They claim only plants or green color can be used as a wood element.
Thank you.

These are some of the considerations:-
1. Frankly, even amongst Geomancers; some have even considered artifical plants as acceptable. As symbolically, a pot of artifical "green" plant to some experienced Geomancers is equally acceptable. Here, symboilism plays a large part in Feng Shui. No need to have the "real deal".
2. Some geomancers argue that as plants are growing: thus they consider it "yang" or alive or with activity and not suitable for a "yin" or suppose to be "yin" = rest location such as a bedroom.
3. In general logically speaking wood element in nature consists of:-
3.1. Real wood. And as everyone knows; there are so many varieties and colours of wood: From maple wood, pine wood to teak wood, sandal wood, cherry wood, oak wood. And these wood alone has colour tones that range from light yellow (pine) slightly greyish (maple); teak wood is browish, cherry wood is browish-reddish and oak or walnut is dark brown colour.
3.2. It is natural that since wood colour ranges from light yellow to the colour of some earth or sand; some geomancers would classify this large range of brown or brownish colour as belonging instead to the "earth " element.
4. Because of this, some geomancers are divided in whether to classify "brown" as wood element or earth element depending on HOW they see it. For me, I would classify or fine tune it further as such:-
4.1. Wood element ? = Wood or wood tone or brown and
4.2. Wood element ? = also green colour
5. Frankly, since green colour is unique; and one of the primary colours; no one should get it's element wrong. Thus, GREEN or green plants should be considered as wood element.
6. Under the Flying Star Feng Shui, at sectors where there is especially (depending on the Water and Mountain star) interaction; if there is a bad wood #3 (lawsuits, scandals and conflicts) then many geomancers would advise their client to refrain from using GREEN colour.
