METAPHORICAL and LITERAL SYMBOLS

The mind is complex and can obtain information as well as reflect and generate insights and inspiration. Our intelligence offers two main areas of focus, one in the outer world, and the other of a more inward perspective. Recognizing and working with these two viewpoints allows us to balance the mind and our overall being. The Knowledge and Self-Cultivation area, or gua (pronounced gwah), speaks to this very dynamic, identifying a place within our homes to improve the flow of energy to all mindful undertakings.
