Meander

A Greek key pattern or meander, symbolizing the flow of a river, often is found in stylized form as a border decoration on rugs, ceramics, and walls. A meander is similar to the Chinese sign for "returning," thus it is also a symbol of rebirth and eternity.

Individual representations vary greatly. Often a meander is made up of squares, spirals, or swastikas folded into one another. The constant repetition makes it a symbol of eternity. In feng shui, the Greek key motif can be used to create a particular effect in a room, underlining the theme that has been chosen.

Applications:

• In a bathroom, as a tile border
• As a pattern for a wallpaper border or for curtains
• As a creative, decorative finish (for a wall, border, etc.).

Ba Gua Areas:

• Career
• Wealth
• Parents
