3. Feng shui layout of the living room

Financial position:

Generally speaking, the position of the living room is commonly known as the "financial position", which is related to the rise and fall of the family's wealth, career, reputation, etc. The best position for financial position is diagonally from the entrance, but if the space is not square, the following methods can be used as reinforcements.

1. Use extended long cabinets to complete the partitions and avoid columns and recesses.

2. If there is a window, you can nail the plywood wall inside so that the money will not leak out.

The color system of the software and hardware in the space can be based on the owner’s birth date. Those born in spring and summer can match elegant cold colors (such as white, light blue, green, etc.), while those born in autumn and winter can match bright colors (such as yellow, red, light brown, etc.) .

Moving line:

The moving line of the living room (generally refers to the central axis of the house) is mainly direct and open. When looking in from the front door, it is most taboo to directly see the kitchen stove, but this lack can be covered with a screen or high cabinet. In addition, all room doors and back doors should be avoided at the entrance. Otherwise, there will be the worry of "entering through the front door and exiting through the back door, making it impossible to accumulate wealth." Moreover, the corridor should avoid running through the entire room vertically or horizontally.

Porch:

Residential areas in modern cities are generally relatively narrow, so the area of ​​the living room entrance should not be set too large. If the entrance area of ​​the living room is too large, other spaces in the house will obviously feel cramped and difficult to move around. Therefore, a compromise is to use glass screens as partitions. Using a semi-transparent and semi-shielding material such as frosted glass not only acts as a spatial partition, but also can take advantage of the space brought by the special semi-transparent and semi-shielding material. Visual effects along the exhibition. This can prevent outside air from rushing straight into the living room from the door, and at the same time, it can also make the narrow entrance not look too cramped.

There are four basic principles for setting up the living room entrance:

1. The intervals between the living room entrances should be transparent. Therefore, transparent frosted glass and thicker wooden boards are better. If wooden boards must be used to pursue style, wooden boards with brighter tones rather than fancy ones should be used. Because the color is too dark, it will easily feel clumsy, making the entrance hall of the living room, which is not spacious, feel cramped and easily make people feel depressed.

2. The lighting in the entrance hall of the living room should be bright rather than dark. However, most residential entrance halls do not have natural light sources, so you must use more brains when it comes to lighting. In addition to the use of relatively transparent frosted glass for partitions, the color of wooden floors, floor tiles or carpets should not be too dark. Because the color is too dark, it feels dark. Most living rooms do not have natural outdoor light, so they need to use indoor lighting to make up for it, such as installing everlasting lights. This is in line with the Feng Shui theory of "the hall is bright and the room is dark".

3. The distance between the entrance and the living room should not be too high or too low, but should be moderate. Generally, a height of two meters is most suitable; if the gap between the living room entrance and the entrance is too high, you will feel oppressive in it. Feng Shui believes that if the entrance hall of the living room is set too high, it will completely block the air outside the house, thus cutting off the fresh air or life from the door, which is very undesirable. If it is too low, it will have no effect and will be inappropriate both in terms of Feng Shui and practical aspects.

4. The entrance to the living room should be kept clean and fresh. If too many clutter is piled around, it will not only make the entrance to the living room look messy, but will also affect the feng shui of the house. If the entrance to the living room is messy and dark, the whole room will look crowded and depressing.

The dining room should be in the center of the house, but not directly facing the front or back door. There are also some layout problems that should be avoided. For example, if it is a building-within-a-building design, the restaurant should be located upstairs; the windows on the left and right walls of the restaurant should not be facing each other, because the air will enter from one window and exit from the other, making it impossible to gather air, which is not conducive to the air quality of the house. transport. Avoid using the space adjacent to the toilet as a restaurant. If it is unavoidable, the dining table should be as far away from the toilet as possible.

In order to increase the yang energy, it is best not to place yin items such as ancestor portraits or antique furniture in the restaurant. Too much Yin energy is harmful to family luck. On the other hand, excessive yang energy can cause disharmony in the family.

Sharp corners and beams will emit evil spirits. Furniture and bonsai should be used to diffuse the corners. At the same time, avoid sitting under beams. If unavoidable, use red ropes. Hang two bamboo bamboo flutes on the beam, facing each other at a 45-degree angle, with the bamboo flutes facing downwards, so that evil spirits can be resolved. Another method is to install elevation lighting so that the light shines directly on the roof beams.

7. Best dining table shape

The shape of the dining table has important Feng Shui significance. It is best to have a round or oval dining table and avoid sharp corners. It symbolizes the prosperity and unity of the family business. If you use a square dining table, you should avoid sitting on the corner of the table to avoid being hit by evil spirits.

Cooking utensils should not be placed in front of or under the window, because it symbolizes the helplessness of the family. The gas stove cannot be placed between the sink and the refrigerator. Fire between the two water sources will cause disaster. If the gas stove is located in the northwest of the kitchen, it will suppress the parents' luck, so be careful. It is unlucky if the gas stove is located under the toilet on the upper floor. It is best to change the location of the gas stove. If it is impossible to relocate, you can install upward lighting to resolve evil spirits.

Put three money in a red envelope bag and put it into a rice vat, which has the effect of attracting wealth.

6. The best Feng Shui position in the bathroom

Water is the main element in the bathroom. Rooms with a lot of water will definitely be humid than other rooms, which will cause heavy airflow and thus make the bathroom more wet. It tends to stagnate. Therefore, indoor windowless bathrooms rarely feel satisfying and comfortable. If there is enough space, the bathroom should be large rather than small to avoid the accumulation of harmful moisture that can cause qi energy to stagnate and accumulate.

The best locations for bathrooms and toilets are in the east and southeast of the center of your home. Water supports the five elements of wood energy in the east and southeast. As long as there are enough windows there, and this is often the sunny part of the house, this will help keep the room dry. The most unfavorable location is the northeastern part of your home, which should be avoided if possible. All other locations are unfavorable. However, in many families, the location of the bathroom is fixed. If the location of the bathroom is found to be poor, it can only be resolved with items to alleviate the negative impact.

Orientation: [East] Good

Effect: Because the water vapor here can coordinate with the wood vapor, it is generally good. However, the downward movement of toilet flushing and bath water drainage is opposite to the upward movement of wood.

Solution: Plant tall plants in the bathroom to increase upward wood energy. Wooden floors and fixtures are also available. Use bright green towels and mats to emphasize the eastern wood energy.

Orientation: [Southeast] Good

Effect: Generally good, the effect is similar to that of the eastern bathroom, where the drainage of water limits the movement of the upward wood.

Solution: Plant tall plants in the bathroom to increase the upward wood energy. Wooden floors and fixtures are also helpful.

Orientation: [South] Bad

Direction: [Southwest] Undesirable

Effect: The air energy here is changeable and unstable, while the earthy air in the southwest can destroy the water air energy. If left unchecked, this can lead to eventual ill health.

Solution: Place a small bowl of sea salt in the bathroom, along with an iron basin or statue and something white, silver or gold to activate the metal energy and harmonize earth and water.

Orientation: [West] Bad

Effect: The gold energy here can deplete the water energy, which will eventually lead to the depletion effect on your income.

Bathroom Floor

Natural wood flooring has a neutral effect on the flow of energy and helps to support wood energy. It is especially beneficial for bathrooms in the east, southeast and south.

Marble, granite, glass and other hard, smooth and sunny surfaces accelerate the flow of air energy. Stone and ceramic tiles have similar characteristics to marble, but they tend to cause chi energy to collapse if the floor is uneven. At the same time, stone floors are easily slippery and can cause family members to fall. This must be noted.

Synthetic materials used for flooring, including carpets, rugs, and linoleums, generate static electricity that they carry, which has a negative impact on airflow and should be avoided.

Toilets

Toilets should be as hidden as possible. To minimize the impact of draining and flushing on the rest of the home, place toilets at an appropriate distance from the bathroom door. Place the toilet in the east or southeast of the bathroom, separated by a low wall, screen or curtain if possible. Keep bathroom doors closed as much as possible, especially in suite bathrooms.
