The bed is a place where people rest and sleep every day, and the placement of the bed has been very particular since ancient times. In China, many things pay attention to Feng Shui, such as the geographical location of the house, the orientation of the door and other household items, which will affect people's luck. As an important habitat in people's lives, bed is also very particular about geomantic omen, and the trend of bed is not only about geomantic omen, but also has certain scientific basis. Which direction is the bedside? The best direction of the bedside is the north-south direction, and most families' beds are in the north-south direction. From the perspective of geomantic omen, the bedside is forbidden to face west, and people are forbidden to sleep with their heads facing west. Because the west represents heaven, people will go to the west after death. When people are buried after death, they will bury their heads to the west to show that the deceased will rest in peace. Therefore, the head facing west is more considered as the direction in which the deceased sleeps. As a living person, it is very taboo to sleep with your head facing west, which will bring you bad luck and even unclean things. Moreover, sleeping with the living head facing west will ruin their lives. Therefore, the bedside cannot face west, and people will also face the bedside south or north when placing their own beds, which will be more in line with Feng Shui.
There is also a reason why the bedside is placed in the north-south direction. In fact, the north-south direction of the bedside is not entirely a superstition of the ancients, but also has a certain impact on our health and sleep. When people sleep with their heads facing south or north, they can have better sleep and promote blood circulation, which is very beneficial to their physical and mental health. Moreover, the earth rotates from west to east, and when people sleep, their heads face east or west, which is not conducive to blood circulation in people's bodies, and people's sleep quality will also deteriorate. Therefore, the head of the bed facing north and south will be more conducive to our health and sleep.
Putting the bedside in the north-south direction not only conforms to geomantic omen, but also has many benefits to people's health.
