In schools of Feng Shui, Green Tara is evoked to uplift as well as invite support and compassion.
Green Tara is connected to the element of wood in the five elements. Wood element inspires rejuvenation, compassion, flexibility, and growth.
Green Tara has green skin, and she has a specific posture that distinguishes her from other Taras and other female deities. You will find Green Tara with her right hand in the giving Mudra of generosity and her left hand holding the stem of a blue lotus flower. A Mudra is a symbolic hand gesture, while the lotus is a reminder that there is beauty within even the darkest of times.
Most notably, Green Tara has her right leg outstretched, ready to spring into action. She is always available to help and assist anyone in need.
It is said that you can simply call out her name or her mantra, Om Tare Tu Tare Ture Swaha.
Tara is one of the most adored and well-known goddesses in Buddhist and Hindu Pantheon. The name “Tara” comes from Sanskrit and means the one who takes you across. She is a female deity that can take you across the ocean of Samsara, which is a Buddhist concept of our continual cyclic existence of life and rebirth. Tara can offer support to take you across to enlightenment.
She is considered the mother of all Buddhas, or awakened ones. Tara is also a Bodhisattva, which means she has dedicated her life to end the suffering of all beings. A Bodhisattva takes a vow to remain in Samsara until every being has reached Nirvana. One story says that Tara was born from a tear from Avolokitshevara (another Bodhisattva). Ultimately, Tara represents compassion for all beings.
You can use the energy of Green Tara with the Feng Shui of your home by placing her image in an area that connects with what you would like her assistance with.
You can place Green Tara as a statue, artwork, or even chant her mantra.
You can activate the Family room with Green Tara if you would like more healing and harmony for you and your family. This room is connected to your family because this is where you spend time together.
Green Tara in the wealth area of the Bagua map will help you to understand how to be generous and feel there is abundance in the world. You can find the wealth area by standing in your front door, looking in; it’s the corner furthest back on the left.
The center of your home is connected to all the Bagua areas, so it affects your health and overall well-being. Place the Green Tara in the center of your home if you’d like to call on her support to improve the well being of all the people in the household.
The entry is an ideal place for a spiritual reminder like Green Tara. Seeing her as you come in and out of your home will help you acknowledge her teachings on compassion and remind you that you are not alone.
