Questions about Feng Shui in bedroom furnishings
Five Fatal Mistakes in Residential Feng Shui
Use less circles in the bedroom
Bedroom walls and furniture should not be mainly round. According to Feng Shui, circles represent "movement". If the bedroom is dominated by circles, it will give people a feeling of instability and restlessness, which is detrimental to the health of the psychological environment.
Comments: Ancient Feng Shui believed that the square represents stability. From a psychological point of view, the square is more stable than the circle. There is no scientific reason to say that round things are dangerous.
Don’t have the bedroom door facing the main door
Offset doors are a taboo in traditional Feng Shui. In the traditional layout structure of our country’s residential buildings, the bedroom door and the main door are rarely in a straight line. Feng Shui believes that if the doors are in contact with each other, the air will not gather. The air coming in from the door will rush straight. The stiff wind speed exceeds the blood flow speed of a person, which is not good for the body.
It is not suitable to use, look and feel, and psychologically to have the door against each other, so avoid it if you can, and resolve it if you can’t. The solution is to put up a screen to cover it, or you can Add a wall at the entrance of the gate to form a porch. The porch should not be too narrow, otherwise it will be difficult to bring out the vitality.
Comments: The bedroom door is facing the main door, which is not private and psychologically unfavorable for protecting privacy. However, there is no scientific basis for believing that the doors are in conflict and do not gather Qi, are bad for the body, and bring good and bad luck.
Avoid having an empty space behind the bed or a mirror in front of the bed
"There should be a backrest behind the bed". If there is an empty space behind the bed, it is called "the sun is not shining on the stars". If it is left empty, it means that the sun is not shining on the stars. There is no meaning of carrying a mountain or relying on a mountain. Indicates career instability. If the bed has no support at both ends, it is called a "Shen" bed in Feng Shui. A pillar behind the bed means that the bed can only be leaned on half way, which means it is still unsupported.
The mirror should not face the bed. The role of mirrors in Feng Shui is mainly to reflect the evil spirits that are coming straight away, so as to avoid being overtaken by the evil spirits and causing damage.
Comments: If the back of the bed is empty, it means poor stability and psychological insecurity, but it has nothing to do with career stability. If the mirror faces the bed, your shadow will be reflected when you get up at night. If you are not very awake, you will feel unsafe after seeing the shadow. If you do this for a long time, it will affect your sleep and health. However, mirrors are not directly related to evil spirits.
Choose plants with broad leaves
According to the traditional Feng Shui view, it is better to choose plants with broad leaves in your home to help eliminate evil and seek prosperity. Use less plants with slender leaves and thorny plants, such as roses and cacti in general, as they have destructive connotations.
Comments: Plants can green the environment and regulate the body and mind. Thorny plants may hurt people, but there is no reason why plants with thin leaves and thorns are unlucky. Plants that cannot see sunlight can be tied with red ribbons to add bright color, but there is no scientific basis for "turning yin into yang".
Methods and content of item storage
The traditional Feng Shui view is that the storage of items affects luck. If you have already put quilts in the closet, don’t put other items away. Things, because including clothing and daily necessities together will reduce luck.
Comments: From a hygienic perspective, it is not good to mix quilts and clothes, so it is best to keep them separately. There is no scientific reason for tying quilts and luck together.
Irregular houses should not be used as study rooms
Irregular houses should not be used as study rooms because they are irregular and will form sharp corners that will distract attention. The desk cannot be turned away from the study door. Facing the study door with its back is a lack of support, and it will cause trouble with the door, and it is easy to have disputes with others. The seat should not be placed in the middle palace position, as this is a situation of being isolated and helpless.
The seat should have a backrest. Sitting on the back, relying on the wall, it was called Leshan in ancient times. This kind of arrangement will be favored by noble people. The person in charge of a business or the executor of major decisions must not sit with his or her back against the glass. This "no support" situation is a taboo for operators and will inevitably damage their wealth and career development.
Comments: The irregular shape will give people a sense of instability, but it is unlikely to significantly affect attention. The seat is placed in the middle of the room, which makes it feel like there is no support, but it makes no sense to create an isolated situation.
[Edit this paragraph] Taboos in the eight directions of residential Feng Shui
Northwest position:
The hexagram stem represents heaven, represents the fathers in the family, and belongs to metal. Commonly known as Shoushan, it represents nobility, prosperity and longevity. The wind from the northwest is biting with ice. If the mountain is not high and solid, it will not block the wind and rain, and will not relieve the cold air, which is not good for vitality and the development of the family. Therefore, the preferred location in the northwest must be high and must not be sunken, and there must be no roads, rivers, or murderous intrusions.
If the northwest is affected or the house is missing corners, it is advisable to place objects of the Pig zodiac to replenish the energy of the northwest.
Northeast position:
The hexagram position Gen represents young men, belongs to earth, and is commonly known as Zisun Mountain. It is in charge of the development of people and future generations. It also affects the long-term fortune of the family. It should be tall and substantial. , should not be sunken, should not have toilets, cesspools and other unclean objects, and should not be impacted by roads or rivers. If the northeast direction is blocked or the house has missing corners, it is advisable to place ugly cow zodiac objects, such as shepherd boys riding bull objects or hanging paintings to replenish the energy of the northeast.
The three directions of northwest, due north and northeast are north, which represents the mountainous environment of the home. It likes heights and is afraid of sinking. When the energy gathers, it will be good, and when the energy disperses, it will be ruined.
The position of Zhengdong:
The hexagram position is Zhen, which represents the eldest man and belongs to the wood. Also known as the position of the blue dragon, the quality of the east can affect the academic development and financial fortune of the family. The east should be slightly higher, which means that the blue dragon raises its head and brings wealth and salary, but it should not be too high. The east is the place where the sun shines. If it is high, then it will be prosperous. It is said that when things reach their extremes, they will turn upside down. If the east is low, seeing water is also auspicious, which is called a blue dragon getting water. However, if there is no water or smelly sewage in the east, it will affect the luck of the family and be detrimental to health and career. If the east is afflicted or the house has missing corners, it is appropriate to place objects and decorations belonging to the rabbit zodiac sign.
Southeast position:

The hexagram position Li represents the middle woman and belongs to fire. There should be no mountains, highlands, tall buildings, etc. in the south. If tall objects block light, everything will not grow, grass buds will not sprout, and there will be no vitality, which is not conducive to family fortune and career. Therefore, the south side should be flat, and it is better if there is flowing water. Water is a source of wealth and can gather wealth. It is better if there is a road, which brings prosperity to wealth and luck. If the south is affected or the house is missing corners, it is advisable to place horse zodiac objects, but do not place the five-numbered horse, but the four-numbered horse.
Southwest position:
The hexagram Kun represents the old mother, belongs to the earth, and can give birth to all things. The good and bad layout will affect the fortune of women in the family and the relationship between husband and wife, and it is also related to the family.

The position of due west:

If it is too high, the white tiger will raise its head and cause trouble. , if it rises high in the west, it is called a white tiger usurping the hall in Feng Shui, which will bring disease, disaster and bad luck. Ancient people said: I would rather the green dragon be ten thousand feet tall than the white tiger one foot tall. The land in the west should be flat and thick, like a tiger crouching, and it should have roads. If the West is affected or the house is missing corners, it is advisable to place Rooster zodiac objects to replenish the energy of the West.
Residential Feng Shui and the Surrounding Environment
In Feng Shui, the interdependent relationship between the residence and the surrounding environment is the peripheral factor that determines the quality of the residence's Feng Shui. We often say that one person is nourished by the soil and water, whether the person has a big house or a small family, and the temperament and personality are different, there is a process of mutual support between the person and the environment. Different feng shui environments will inevitably produce different living personalities and behaviors. This is why Feng Shui masters should first look at the surrounding environment when looking at the Feng Shui of a home. Simply put, there are the following three relationships between residential Feng Shui and the surrounding environment:
① Feng Shui relationship between adjacent buildings. While looking at the feng shui of the natural terrain where the residence is located, we must also pay great attention to the relationship between adjacent (neighbors, adjacent streets) buildings in terms of location and orientation. The general requirement is to be reasonable and avoid going against the crowd in neighborhood relations. The pursuit of Feng Shui is orderliness and coordination. A common Feng Shui formula for residential buildings is as follows: if the house is built with flat gold characters, the rich and noble people will be prosperous. If the house is built in eight characters, there will be loneliness, poverty and illness. If the house is in the shape of fire, it means phlegm fire and long-term amenorrhea. If the house is in the shape of a fan, people with phlegm and tuberculosis will be lonely. Liang Xiaozhu is thick, and the slave bullies the mistress and defeats her. The beams and pillars are small and often crushed by people. If there is a horizontal house on the lower arm, there will be many children and six livestock. Connect the hut to the lower wall and buy fields to accumulate old grain. There are no horizontal wings in the stacked buildings, and there are many ups and downs. The house is big and does not hide the wind, and the scattered people are empty. I saw a pit in a distant house, and there were only a few people there. The house is generally flat, rich and prestigious. If the front is high and the back is low, it harms the son and harms the wife. The back is high and the front is low. Many young and old are in coma. The middle is high, the front and back are low, and the couple's eyebrows are uneven. Medium, high, left, right, low, mouth and tongue are all different. The walls and legs are often broken, and the wealth is scattered and destroyed by disasters.
②Plant trees and green roads to the environment.
People's lives are always inseparable from the plant environment. Modern urbanization has kept people away from the land. People feel like they are hanging in the air and have no sense of stability. The plant area is getting smaller and smaller, and people are like lonely animals without support. The same is true for homes and homes. The premise of connected breath is the existence of two or more things, so the house must be in a certain plant environment, especially they provide us with food sources such as nourishing Qi, and they also change our relationship with nature. relation. The general rule of planting trees in Feng Shui is for comfort, thereby reducing the noise and chaos from the road and giving people a peaceful environment, but there should not be too many trees; for example, you cannot plant big trees in front of the gate, because the big trees are in front of the gate. The front not only blocks the sunlight and blocks the vitality of Yang Qi from entering the house; at the same time, it is also difficult to drive out the Yin Qi in the house.
In this choice, Feng Shui believes: Peach willows are planted in the east (Yi Ma), gardenia elms are planted in the west, plum jujubes are planted in the south (Yi Niu), and apricots are planted in the north." Also, "the middle gate has Sophora japonica is the third generation of wealth. There are elms behind the house and hundreds of ghosts will not come near." "Apricots to the east of the house are evil, plums to the north of the house, and peaches to the west of the house are all evil evils." Then you will make money" (Volume 4 of "Xiangzhai Jingzong") and so on.
It is difficult to judge the direction of Feng Shui. We can simply judge it by the way in and out. The direction of the road is the direction of the back. Bow or broken road? Is it a side string or a cross? etc. Generally, we use "the higher one is the mountain and the lower one is the road" to determine the difference between the road and the mountain.
< p>③ Orientation of the residential house. After selecting the residential foundation, the Feng Shui master determines the orientation of the house, which is called the "direction method". The steps are as follows: First, "measure" the "house foundation" and "number of floors" (the number of floors). (the number of entrances of the house and courtyard) are measured one by one and drawn on a large piece of paper to form a simple plan with a scale of 1:100. Then the general diagram is divided into nine Bagua palaces and the twenty-four directions are indicated. This makes it easy to know whether a certain room is in a certain direction, and then determine the "general direction" based on the natural terrain, landforms, water flow direction, climate characteristics, etc., that is, the general rule is to face south and "negative yin and embrace yang". Pattern. Some special villages are facing east or west due to taboos, avoidance of evil spirits, restrictions on natural conditions, and ritual requirements. Finally, the correct direction is determined by a compass. With the direction of the house determined, all attributes of the house are also determined. According to the "Eight Houses Zhou Shu" or similar methods, the floor plan, door position and even spatial organization of the house such as the main hall, bedroom, kitchen and toilet can be deduced. Location, high somewhere, low somewhere, etc.In the study of the relationship between residential Feng Shui and the surrounding environment, we can basically judge whether the Feng Shui environment of our residence or house is good or not from these three aspects. It has a very good guiding significance for creating a beautiful family Feng Shui environment.
The foundation of Feng Shui is Qi. The first thing in residential Feng Shui is Qi, which emphasizes the intake, intake and gathering of Qi. , if there is no Qi, you will die, if you have good Qi, you will develop, and if you have sick Qi, you will die!
