Under the Five Elements Concept (Wu Xing) in Chinese metaphysics and Feng Shui, each element is associated with a specific shape: - Earth: Square or rectangle - Metal: Circle - Fire: Triangle For completeness, here are the other two elements and their shapes: - Wood: Rectangle or column (sometimes elongated shapes) - Water: Wavy or curved shapes These shapes are often employed in Feng Shui design, interior decoration, architecture, and symbolism to balance or enhance specific element energies in a space.
