Hello guys. In this article we will analyze Feng Shui for the home, starting from the place of construction, the color of the house, the location of windows and doors, and ending with the rituals of attracting love, money, wealth and health to the home.
Chi energy permeates the entire space, surrounding the house and entering it. Therefore, it is important not only to furnish the home with talismans, but also to harmonize its position in space. The collection of Feng Shui rules for the home takes into account everything that can in one way or another affect the quality of life.
House project: where to start
So, you start building a house based on the Chinese teachings of Feng Shui. The basic rules are:
- The correct house is square or rectangular. Only these forms will ensure a strong position for homeowners in life. Triangular, round and irregular shapes will not bring prosperity.
- The length, width and height should not change. Violation of proportion interferes with the flow of energy. According to Feng Shui rules, the second floor of the house should not be sloping.
- The roof should not be skewed to one side.
- If outwardly the house seems to consist of several parts, then its residents may lose touch with each other and become disconnected. The design of the house must be integral, then the family will be strong.
- The house is oriented to the cardinal directions in order to further arrange the rooms according to the Bagua grid.
- Choose strong doors and reliable windows. Glass and transparent doors weaken the health of the owner of the house and reflect incoming energy.
- Doors and windows are not placed on the same line.
- You should not make stairs down or up immediately from the front door. This way the energy will not penetrate inside.
Houseplants according to Feng Shui
Indoor plants saturate the house with positivity, comfort, vitality, good mood, calm, and take away irritation and dissatisfaction.
Each flower is charged with individual energy, so it affects the residents of the house differently:
- The money tree symbolizes wealth, prosperity, financial well-being. It not only preserves, but also increases family income;
- ficus neutralizes manifestations of aggression, anger, anger;
- myrtle will help preserve family and love. With him you will overcome all the bad things and save your marriage;
- the cactus has quite heavy energy, but at the same time restrains the rage and anger of the owners of the house;
- the lemon tree reveals creative talents in children, increases activity, and fills the house with vital energy;
- calla lilies protect family relationships and protect household members from diseases;
- geranium calms nerves, balances emotions, purifies the air.
Money Tree
It should be remembered that you should not place tall plants on the window, as they prevent the penetration of qi energy. Do not place them in the bedroom: they negatively affect family relationships, especially if they are plants with thorns and prickles. It is better to take a fading flower out of the house. Plants located on shelves and cabinets will fill the room with good energy. Surround the plant with love and care - and it will become a talisman.
The situation around
What is around the home is also important. It's good when there is an elevation behind the house. It symbolizes a reliable rear.
Water
A pond a short distance from the house is very good. Utility rooms are built evenly around the main one.
Space
There should be free, level space in front of the entrance. Wood and other objects block the path of energy. Better make a slightly winding path framed with flowers.
Glory
Next to the wealth sector, in the center of the far part of your land plot is the glory zone. Usually this zone has to do with your position in society. However, it can also be associated with literal fame if you strive for it. If you want to improve your reputation or become famous, you should activate this part of the site in one way or another. Tall plants and long stemmed flowers can symbolize your growth in this regard. You can put a garden chair here so you can sit comfortably and make plans.
Many people like to talk to their plants. The glory zone is the best place to sit and tell the plants about your dreams and hopes.
Interior: basic rules
Inside, the house is divided into sectors, each of which is responsible for an important area of life. The layout of a house according to Feng Shui should take into account the cardinal directions and the zones related to them.
Bedroom area
For a bedroom, the eastern or southwestern zone would be ideal. There are the Family and Marriage sectors, respectively. Do not build a bedroom next to or above the toilet, otherwise your sleep will be disturbed.
Work area
It is better to place a work office or table in the north, in the Career zone. Another good option is the Money Zone in the southeast. The sectors of Wisdom (northeast) and Patrons (northwest) are also suitable.
Don't build a garage on the ground floor. This is a non-residential premises, and residents above the garage will be uncomfortable.
Traditional octagon Bagua
The basis of science is the Bagua octagon, this is the unity of everything in nature and in man. The environment directly affects the human body. Therefore, it is better to even position the site correctly. Thousands of years of practice have proven that with the use of Feng Shui it is easier and faster to achieve heights in any area. Merging with nature, harmony inside and outside is the basis of life.
According to the Bagua octagon, the cardinal directions are determined using a compass. Therefore, first you need a large-scale sketch respecting the dimensions and features of the site.
Attracting different benefits
An abandoned house does not bring anything good to its owners. Even one forgotten room will attract negative Sha energy. According to Feng Shui, you need to decorate every single room.
To keep money in the house, keep order. It's a cliché tip, but clutter really does hinder the accumulation of wealth. Feng Shui experts note that poverty lives next to dirt. Order in the house and especially in the hallway is the first condition for attracting money and other material wealth.
The ritual of cleansing the house from negative energy is a regular spring cleaning.
Talismans for prosperity
Wealth talismans are placed in the southeast. This:
- three-toed toad with a coin,
- Hottei,
- nine carp (both live in the aquarium and the image),
- money box,
- Money Tree.
For money
The energy of money is fed by flowing water (with the exception of sewerage). In the south-eastern part of the apartment, paintings with waterfalls or rivers are placed, and aquariums and fountains are also placed here. At the same time, the element of water should not be overwhelming, for example, the image of Niagara or the painting “The Ninth Wave” will upset all your plans.
For love
The rule for attracting love is this: everything must have a pair. Figurines of angels, doves, paired pillows, candles. Paintings with red flowers placed in the bedroom also attract the other half like a magnet.
There are exceptions to the rule: the spouses' bed should not consist of two halves pushed together.
For good health
Attracting health is very simple: pay attention to the center of the house. It should always be clean here. Get rid of junk so that energy fills the sector, and health improves at all levels.
As a symbol of good health, place a pot of a living plant in the center of your home. It should have fleshy, wide leaves.
How to design a local area
When the house is built, the yard must be landscaped. A neglected area will attract Sha energy. A well-kept area should have flower beds and flower beds, but the central door to the house should not be blocked. It needs to be opened to the maximum for access to the house of Qi energy.
The path to the house should not be straight, but winding with smooth bends. If it is not possible to make it like this, then you need to at least make it so that it rests directly on the central gate or fence.
House, apartment, street number
The house number consists of one or more digits. They need to be added to get a single digit number. It is interpreted according to Feng Shui:
- The unit is purely the Sun, brings good luck and luck in all endeavors.
- Two is the number of the Moon; the owners of such a house have a sensitive nature and often unstable emotional states. For balance, choose pastel colors in the interior and the symbolism of water.
- Three is ruled by Mars; there is a lot of energy and even aggression in such a house. All items must be intact and in working order, otherwise unspent energy will turn against the owner.
- Four is suitable for sociable people. Mercury gives stability in relationships with people.
- The number 5 and the planet Jupiter increase the desire to travel and search for new knowledge.
- Venus corresponds to the number 6: a house with this number is ideal for love and meetings with friends. Its owners are kind and friendly people.
- The creative house at number 7 will help them master any profession, but the influence of Saturn can complicate life.
- Eight is one of the most favorable numbers. Uranus patronizes people with developed intuition.
- The number 9 corresponds to Neptune and is suitable for accomplished people. Life in such a house will be calm and harmonious.
There are still many secrets of Feng Shui that you are yet to discover. Start with the simple: planning, cleaning, arranging the site and choosing talismans, and changes will not keep you waiting.

Wealth
The top left corner of the bagua is associated with wealth. If you want to improve your well-being, you should activate this sector. Here you can plant flowers that have the color of your element or the element that precedes it in the generation cycle. In the wealth sector, yellow and golden flowers, such as daffodils, are good, as these colors symbolize money. Here you can arrange a pond or fountain, since in Feng Shui water is also a symbol of money.
Of course, this area requires special care. The state of this garden sector will reflect the state of your finances. If it is full of weeds, dry or rotting plants, you may have money difficulties. And vice versa, if the land and plants here are well-groomed, the bushes and trees are neatly trimmed, then everything will be in order with your money. Try to plant more yellow flowers rather than white ones. According to ancient tradition, this will give you more gold than silver.
Teachers (Helpers) and travel
The teacher and travel zone is located on the right side of the land, between the career and children zones. There is an old saying: “When the student is ready, the teacher appears.” You can speed up this process by activating this zone. If you want to travel, you can (depending on the climate) plant either bushes, flowers or trees here that will remind you of the places you want to visit. The influences of the bagua are guidelines rather than hard and fast rules.
To take into account the principles of Feng Shui in the garden, stand in the center of the plot and determine the cardinal directions
Family and health
This sector is located diagonally to the left of the entrance, in the middle of the left side of the site. It is associated with family in the broad sense of the word, that is, with people with whom you are close and who are not indifferent to you. It also correlates with the health of the occupants of your home.
Naturally, this part of the garden plot must be carefully looked after; Here you should plant flowers and other plants of as many different colors as possible. If one of your household is sick, plant flowers that match the color of the sick person's element or the element preceding it in the generation cycle. If you are plagued by family problems, plant flowers here that match the color of the element of each family member.
Partnership, Marriage
The marriage area is located in the far corner, diagonally to the right of the entrance. Nowadays, the marriage zone symbolizes intimate relationships. If you are looking for a life partner or want to improve your relationship with your spouse, you should activate this zone. It is very good to plant flowers here, symbolizing love and loving relationships. What exactly you plant will depend on the climate, but roses generally do well anywhere.
If you have a bench in the marriage area, it should be designed for two, and if you currently live alone, try to use both halves of the bench. If you always sit in one place, you symbolically emphasize the fact that you are on your own and not half of a couple. By sitting alternately on both sides of the bench, you are sending a signal to the Universe that you are waiting for your life partner. Obviously, this advice should not be followed if you want to continue to live on your own.
Children
The children's area is located in the center of the right edge of the site. It has to do with young people and their well-being, as well as the child in all of us. This is the place to let your imagination run wild. The more colorful this part of the garden is, the better. If you have small children, it is best to arrange a playground here for them to play. This zone should be activated if you want to have children or have problems with children. In the latter case, you should choose the colors of the element that precedes the child’s element in the generation cycle.
